High-Street Leather Can Look So Expensive—5 Pieces That Have My Seal of Approval

If there's one thing I always reach for as soon as temperatures drop—aside from my hot water bottle—it's leather. I'm a firm believer that if you add leather items to your outfit, it'll instantly elevate your look to become effortlessly polished. It's all about finding those key items that look expensive, though, and I believe the high street never fails when it comes to these five leather items: Outerwear, trousers, shirts, skirts and dresses. 

While real leather will set you back more than faux and vegan iterations, that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice quality. Over the years, these variations have become so good, some have even fooled me into believing they're the real deal.

When it comes to brands, Whistles sell-out leather shirts is a seasonal winner (their cult style is back in stock), All Saints will forever be a go-to for biker jackets and Mango has leather trousers (real and faux) that I've rated for years.
