Tips to Carry Jackets

1. How to Carry a Jacket

2.   Leather Jacket with Pearls • Why save your pearls for a little black dress? Wear pearls with a black leather jacket, classic white tee (or button-down) and jeans or black pants like Katie Holmes has done. It's a great mix of feminine and masculine that gives this such chic.

3. With a Rocker Tee Get that rocker chick look by adding a concert tee shirt to a leather jacket. Ripped and/or faded jeans complete the look

4. Add Stripes • There's something bold and fresh about stripes that just melds perfectly with a leather jacket. Add a scarf like Jasmin Wagner has done for a French chic touch

5. Wear a Long Skirt Take leather formal. Try adding a leather jacket to evening separates like Elisabeth von Gutmann has done with her slit-to-there long skirt and white skirt. She keeps it funky with a choker and black leather ankle boots, but the overall effect is youthful and dressed up: updated but sophisticated

6. Try a Different Color for Your Jacket • Black leather is a classic -- and goes with everything -- but don't rule out other dark neutrals like olive. Here, Michelle Trachtenberg wears olive in place of black with an otherwise all-black look. The result? A fresh spin.

7. Wear a Leather Jacket with Print Pants • Sure, you could go with solid-color pants or jeans for a traditional look, but print pants will wake up your look faster. Try a graphic print with a contrast jacket -- like Kristen Stewart has done with her black and white pants and yellow jacket -- or pick a dominant color from your print pants and use that in your jacket color

8. Play with Proportions By putting a cropped, fitted jacket over a long, slim tee and low-rise jeans Jessica Biel has created a fabulous casual look that shows off her figure better than bulkier pieces would. Make this work for you by adding a tunic or long tee under a waist-length leather jacket. Add leggings or skinny jeans to keep the slim vibe going

9. Make it Ladylike • Toss a women leather jackets over your shoulders in place of a cardigan like Julia Restoin-Roitfeld has done? Why not? Same goes for wearing it with ladylike pieces such as pencil skirts, floral prints or ruffles. Just replace the "expected" piece with a leather jacket for a more youthful spin on girly looks.
