Whether it’s a casual tee with distressed denim or a sundress that’s too good to ignore this season, there is no better way to give it a final touch than to wear a bomber jacket on top. Leather has always been in style, it is one of the ever-popular materials for bags, belts, watches, jackets and even pants! So it is safe to assume that a wardrobe stays incomplete without a good leather jacket. And to make it easier for you here is everything you need to know about leather bomber jackets and the kind of outfits to wear them with. Let’s get started!
Leather Bomber Jacket Outfit Ideas
Styling Tips
- Avoid wearing excessive jewelry, especially big pieces because that will steal attention from your jacket. Instead, when accessorizing, shift your focus to parts other than what the jacket covers such as the legs and the hair.
- A high ponytail is an excellent way to flaunt the neck and shoulder style of your bomber jacket.
- Try and avoid pairing a hat with your bomber jacket, as both are statement pieces that will probably compete with each other. However, when done right, it can be very chic.
- A leather jacket with boots can never go wrong so make sure you invest in a good collection of boots. You can pick between ankle-length boots with a 4-inch heel or the knee-length boots which look amazing in winter.
