Leather Fashion Trend 2012-13
One of the many trends that are in for this fall and coming spring is Leather.
Designers have certainly done their job and made leather somewhat more "attractive" then it was when it was first in around the 80's. People actually like it and want to wear it now.
Though not everyone thinks the same. A lot of people are having trouble adding Leather into their style, and a lot just don't like it.
Personally I like some of it, but I don't think I will be wearing it any time soon. The Leather jackets, boots, purses, and jewelry I like, everything else I'll stick to soft and more comfortable fabric.
What do you think?
Do you like the leather trend? If you do then how do you suggest it should be used? Do you own anything already in Leather?
Or maybe it's just not for you? Why not?
I found a couple of things made of Leather that I really liked on Polyvore.com.

Fashion Or Style
Do you have style or are you fashionable?
Believe it or not there is a difference between style and fashion. Fashion is not style and style is not fashion.What is Fashion?
Fashion changes over and over again. You can be fashionable and where the newest fashion trends out there but never be stylish. Taking fashion too serious can possibly make you a fashion victim.What is Style?
Style is .. Not being afraid to stand out!
Women of style usually have a trademark, and are recognized by it. Like a great black jacket, or maybe a mix of colors that look amazing on her. They're the ones that would take an item of clothing and wear it in a way that it was never intended to be worn.Style is .. Knowing when to stop.
For example, many people love animal prints. The difference between stylish and tacky is wearing one, maybe two pieces, at a time. The secret to being well dressed is underdressing. Allowing you to wear distinctive clothing that stands by itself.Style is .. Going with what works for you.
If it feels comfortable, then you are going to get a lot more wear out of it. Even though something is right off the runway, unless you feel confident in it, leave it alone.Style is .. Not always obeying silly fashion rules.
Style is .. A good fit.
Keep an eye out for how clothing should fall. You should know where those pants should fall or how that jacket should hang on you. Also size is a matter that changes based on the clothing item, or the fabric, or the designer. Pants made by one designer in a size 8 might be a size 6 in another brand.The Classics
There is a backbone to fashion known as "classic dressing." It allows a woman to remain stylish throughout every season of her life. These are the women that are not wearing outrageous fashion from the runway, or not following the fashion editorials on magazines. They have they're own signature style and know what looks right and what doesn't. Fashion magazines themselves never meant to be taken literal on every page.Are you making fashion your own & making it style? Or are you following the rules of fashion? What do you think?

About Me / My first Post, Welcome
Hello there!
Welcome to my blog! Pure Treasure.
You're probably thinking, 'what a name for a blog'.
It was kind of hard to choose a name. When you're a new blogger and have no idea what you're getting yourself into, and every site about blogging says it is of major importance, than it gets a little overwhelming finding the perfect name.
I chose that name because of a quote that says, "A pure heart is the greatest of all treasures." It always reminds me that there is nothing, not even a jewel on earth, more important than a heart full of happiness, love, confidence, purity, and awesomeness, that really is the greatest treasure. That is why I named my blog Pure Treasure.
