Leather accents are everywhere and I’m absolutely loving it. I’ll take leather on just about anything, and with this gloomy rainy weather (confession: I actually love this weather, not sorry) what’s more appropriate than a leather accented sweater?

A leather accented sweater is a trendy twist on a closet staple. I’ve been seeing a ton of knits with leather sleeves, so I decided to feature my weekly splurge vs. save post on this unique top.

Splurge

This Aiko Leather-Sleeve Sweater ($295, Neiman Marcus) is a boat neckline, grey, cotton/cashmere blend sweater with leather sleeves. Seriously, how warm and comfortable does this sweater sound?

Save

This ASOS Knit Top with leather look sleeves is almost identical to the Aiko version for a fraction of the price ($43.98, ASOS).

Have I inspired you to go out and buy one of these leather sleeved sweaters?
