You name it, we'll be wearing it in Leather over the next few chilly months. Leather shirts, dresses, shorts, leggings... and more.... Think you can't pull it off....think again!

Leather Dresses: Pair with opaque tights and suede platform heels to pull off a polished sophisticated look.

Leather Pants: Work it with an over-sized men inspired blazer and ankle boots for a chic edgy ensemble.

Leather Skirts: Ladies, the key to pulling this look off is HEIGHT- I'm talking 4-6 Inch skinny heels. Pair with any slouchy top (Think Kain White Muscle tee or over sized sweater)

Leather Shorts: You must be very careful to properly execute this look without appearing dumpy.... HEIGHT HEIGHT HEIGHT is once again key. Pair with sheer tights (unless you're going for short shorts then go for opaque tights), a cropped blazer or an elegant silk blouse. (Stilettos will elongate your legs so, if you don't have long skinny gams stay away from ankle boots instead opt for a pointy closed toe stiletto)

Leather Tops: Fitted leather tops should be paired with subtle loose fitting bottoms. If you're wearing a loose fitting leather tank/shirt pair with skinny pants/Jeans and ankle boots, over the knee boots or stilettos.

I recently had the great privilege to sit down with my friend, Peter Davis, Editor of Paper Magazine and one of New York City's most stylish men, to ask him 10 questions about all things style. Here is what he had to say:

JP Whitney: What things influence your style?

Peter Davis: People and places: Fred Hughes, Mark Ronson, Tokyo,
London, Big Sur, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse, and of course- New York. The
 Mods are a huge influence.

JPW: What do you prefer: everyday street style or party primped?

PD: Street Style. NYC's best looks start and shine on the
 street and not in the front row of a fashion show or on a red carpet.

JPW: How does your City Style differ from your Hamptons Style?

PD: I only wear board shorts in the country. Whereas in NYC, I never wear board shorts.

JPW: What is your prized possession in your closet and what is your must have du jour?

PD: My tux that my tailor in London, Timothy Everest, made. Always looks good. A pair of black Loakes shoes which were a huge pain to order from London, but my favorite shoe.

JPW: Who are some of your favorite designers or labels?

PD: Martin Margiela, Rolex, Fred Perry, John Lobb, Thom Browne shirts, Vans slip-ons (have owned over 400 pairs), Michael Bastian blazers and tux jackets, vintage Helmut Lang, Bess NYC, and my tailor
 Timothy Everest is my style guru.

JPW: How did you get started in the magazine business?

PD: I was an intern at Paper in High school. I had blue hair. 
I never wanted to be a writer or an editor. I studied painting in
 college. I just loved Paper's whole vibe.

JPW: How do you take/react to negative press?

PD: Not well. I'm not a celebrity, so I'm always surprised that Page Six or Gawker makes up silly stories about me or slams me.

JPW: Is the Peter Davis we see on red carpets and at parties the 
same Peter Davis that hangs out with family and friends?

PD: Red carpets scare me!! I don't have a good photo face down, 
so I'm never red carpet ready. I need to have Mark Ronson give me some 
lessons in looking cool!

JPW: What is on your wish list for the coming fashion season?

PD: Getting an editorial discount at Gucci, so I can load up on 
mod style clothing.

JPW: Peter, it's been a pleasure chatting with you.
 Before we wrap it up, tell me something most people don't
 know about Peter Davis.

PD: I'm scared of sharks. I went scuba diving with Jaws-like
 sharks in Fiji, and it still haunts me.
