Best Leather Jackets for 2015

The leather jacket.

As ubiquitous as the ballet flat or the LBD. Purchase a good one and it's an investment for life. Dress up, dress down - there are no rules - except it will always be on trend. 

If you're currently looking to add this piece to your wardrobe this spring, here are some of my favorites to give you inspiration:

Givenchy

Black Goatskin Leather Jacket with Chocolate Collar in Beaver.

PETA lovers beware, but this one is a thing of beauty and that hit of fur gives it just enough glam.

Temperley London

Rolin Leather Jacket

I saved the best for last: this is my favorite jacket out of the five. Hands down. It's buttery soft nappa leather but I'm in love with the quilted shoulders and asymmetrical front panel - great way to add femininity and texture. Exposed zip fastenings and buckled strap.
