Cardigans

Another option with what to wear a leather skirt in the fall is a cardigan. A jacket with buttons is much more practical than a sweater - you can take it off if it is hot indoors, just throw it on your shoulders or even tie it around your neck. In general - a lot of options for use. But the classic will, of course, be the standard cardigan wearing unbuttoned or buttoned.

The cardigan can be worn by itself, that is, without clothing under it - in this case you can't take the jacket off. Another option is to combine it with a T-shirt, top, turtleneck or even a shirt. The skirt for the cardigan or sweater can be anything, including a mini, if the figure allows.
