So '70s Suede For Spring 2015: Let's All Smell Like Patchouli Oil, Giuliana!

We happen to REALLY like suede. We think it is smart, sexy + boho chic. That's why we are thrilled that 70s SUEDE vibe is back for Spring 2015.

Yes, Giuliana Rancic, er, maybe we can ALL smell like patchouli oil now.  LOL

Seriously though, suede this Spring is a nice touch ---in outerwear like jackets, shift dresses, trench coats, leggings, skirts, vests, pants and bags.

Suede isn't just brown. And it doesn't have to be bulky + rugged. Suede is HOT, along with some long, hippie fringe!

Just look at these gem-colored, rich, suede style samples from the Spring runways of Derek Lam, Gucci + Trussardi.


Now, if you SPILL something on suede, well, you're on your OWN.

Can you say dry clean!

Still, suede has an understated beauty about it. And it can be very expensive. Look at this sexy, black fringe skirt from Valentino The cost---$5,890 and almost SOLD OUT here.


By the way, FAUX suede is alright, too. You can fool people wearing it.

Look at these inexpensive pieces from Forever 21:

Forever 21 Faux Suede Vest  $44.90

Faux Suede Jacket $32.90
