From the long to short dresses; From the denim jeans to denim shorts; From blouses to tank tops; There isn't a better piece of fashion clothing to go with the whole lady's wardrobe then the leather jacket. Dress it up or dress it down, the leather jacket can provide the necessary ingredient to achieve that. It's a stylish & timeless piece of clothing regardless of the age too.

Try a studded design to give a more edgy feel to the dress.
Even for days where there isn't much time to consider or plan an outfit, the leather jacket will never go wrong even for the casual occasion. Wanting to be casual but not too casual:

Sometimes the black leather jacket gets rather jaded, then go for a more natural color - the brown leather jacket. I like to see ladies in this variant of the leather jacket as it gives off a softer & classier feel.

Tired of the natural colors of black or brown? Then opt for a colored leather jacket. I'd only recommend that the less experienced in dressing to avoid this option or risk looking like a disaster. However, the colored leather jacket is a more beautiful piece of clothing than a nylon or cotton jacket, in my humble opinion. So the risk of looking like a disaster sometimes is a risk worth taking. A safe recommendation for wearing a colored leather jacket is to pair it with an outfit that isn't striking colored - non-strong colors - because you want the focus to be on the jacket.

In the generation where the bohemian lifestyle is rampant, the need to revive the respect for dressing is most urgent and in this case, dressing for the feet. I must confess to liking women in heels. I like women who walk with their heels right.
"We are women and women wear heels." - unknown source.
Why?
Women in heels are more attractive/sexy/elegant
Heels/Stilettos/Pumps accentuate one of women's greatest assets - their legs
Wearing them exudes confidence
Each pair of heels/stilettos/pumps can be an art piece itself
I believe that they were made to complete the women's figure.
To be more technical, it seems that the heels/stilettos/pumps force the back of the body to arch, pushing the chest forward and the butt area rearward, thereby emphasizing on the curvy figure of the woman. Plus, height is increased. Very model-like no?
And, it seems that men like an exaggerated female figure... mm-hmm. Yes, i know heels/stilettos/pumps are hell to wear and more so when trying to walk in one. But who says looking good is ever easy? Sacrifice for the sake of looking good I say. I feel it's a state-of-mind, once you start wearing them often enough, it becomes natural. With that being said, you still got to wear them heels/stilettos/pumps right, or you might as well store them away. I actually took time to research on how to walk in heels/stilettos/pumps the right way. So, flaunt those legs in heels/stilettos/pumps for the street is your catwalk!
