Suede Skirt and Black Leather Jacket
Every so often, I have the desire to wear a little short skirt for a fun date night look! I bought this skirt September 2021 and only have worn it a handful a times, but it’s such a fun skirt to have! It actually fits better now than it did then. Once again, I turned to Pinterest to get some ideas because I did not want to copy a look I already shared on the blog. I shared it one way here in 2021 and that was actually how I thought of it again, but that look was already done! I’ve also worn it with light tan boots and a tan cut out top.
Today, I added a touch of edginess with the faux leather jacket. I do not wear my faux leather jackets enough to justify the expense of real leather, so all 3 of my jackets are faux. I have this black one, a rose/gold brown one and a brown moto one. Each one takes an occasional turn in an outfit.
I have been on the lookout for a good white bodysuit I like. I stained my last short sleeve square neck one from Old Navy so that is where I headed when I wanted to replace it. Thankfully, I had still a little cash in hand so I decided that I would get what fit and looked best. I bought this long sleeve square neck one on sale (here) and 3 tank ones (not on sale). I usually were their bodysuits in medium, but they only had the long sleeve in L in store so that is the size I bought.
I really love bodysuits with maxi skirts, but they are also really handy as a base layer. I just have had a hard time liking the material of most because I like it to be think enough to smooth over without outlining everything. The double layer of the Old Navy ones is nice. I also love my fleece lined tights which are so nice and toasty on cold days.
A bientĂ´t!

I love this look Mireille and would wear it myself, perhaps with a slightly longer pencil skirt. My leather jacket is also faux – these are so well made nowadays why buy it for real. You look great in this outfit as I also love those black tights and shoes.

Thanks, Penny! The length of the skirt definitely relegates it to only date night for me!

It’s a cool look! I always love the way bodysuits look but never bought them myself. I need to try one! Have a great weekend!

I never snap them, just tuck them into skirt or pants.

This looks incredible and it’s good to show off that amazing body that you’ve worked hard for.
Next time you should wear it with your cowboy boots!

Lol! Most of the time I am a lazy bum apart from my couple runs a week. Thankfully, I play outdoors with the boys a few times a week so I get a little extra exercise like that too.

You look fabulous in this edgy outfit, Mireille! No one would ever guess you have a son about to graduate high school! I really like the black tights with the black booties to make your legs look soooo long!
Have a wonderful weekend!
