I need a sanity check, pleeze. Is leather on trend this fall? I had my NAS pre-sale appointment today, and bought the leather pencil skirt. (Didn't see it in the catalog, so I cannot link to an image, but it's online as part of the pre-sale skirts, from the Classiques Entiere dept.) I totally dig it, but sometimes I err, and I worry whether this is one of those cases, yikes. And given this is not a cheap item, I'd love to hear whether this is a good investment. I know leather skirts (and pants) come and go, and I really am only interested in this item at this point if it's on trend this coming season.

BTW, love the NAS, very happy with my items (I'll try and write a forum post about them with pics). But I feel for those sales associates, who are already working their butts off, and the official sale is only starting Friday. And they all mumbled that they are already out of many sizes and items, and customers will likely be pretty ticked off on Friday... Oh dear. Nordies might have just gotten a little bit ahead of themselves with the pre-sale... Anyway, to whomever is going to the NAS pre-sale or sale, be kind to the sales associates, they work so hard and they will have to take a lot of grumbling!
