For leather?! Recently left after 28 years for OW. So, I'm going out for a few do's over Xmas - not sure I feel like but hey, I need to start heaving myself off the sofa. I really like these leather or leather look skirts but am I too old (44)??? Honest opinions. I wasn't going for the trashy look - more like small pixie high heeled ankle boots and a plain top.

What do you think?

I have a faux leather skirt which is more a-line than pencil, from Oasis, and have worn it loads. I tend to wear mine with crew-neck jumpers, opaques and flat Chelsea boots, for me the trick is to avoid anything too fancy on top. Go for it!

top shop has great suede and leather ,op. Go for it! Oh and ow got your leftovers + she'll have the "privilege" of looking after him in his old age-IF she sticks around- just don't take him back , ok? Have fun in your new life and enjoy the clothes you will be reluctant to wear when you're a lot older.

black usually goes with everything - are the boots black?

Opaque, always. Anything else is a bit Joan Collins.

Or Beverly Callard.
