Seen in Lisbon, Portugal

Patchwork over coffee

A brown patchwork leather midi with visible front seams meets blue tights, Mary Janes and a scarf-tied office tote over coffee in Lisbon.

Why it works

The visible construction of the skirt supplies the detail, while the blue tights and small scarf keep the brown palette from becoming too quiet.

Make it yours · Let textures disagree

Let one constructed leather piece carry the look, then add colour through tights or a scarf rather than another statement garment.
