There’s one fashion trend to rule them all this fall: suede. From jackets and boots to skirts and belts, Jeanne Beker has searched the city for the best of the best to prepare you for leather weather. 

A. HEELED BOOTIE

“These are absolutely comfortable; the heel is almost a sculptural work of art. These boots are so elegant and can be dressed up and down.” Ron White, $645, 55 Bloor St. W.

B. SUEDE HEADBAND

Ai, $55, ai-co.ca

C. SLOUCH BAG

“This has a very beautiful feel to it, and I love the colour — so rich. This bag has a lot of volume to it; you could fit a lot in there!” Ron White, $645, 55 Bloor St. W.

D. SUEDE TRENCH

“That merlot colour is very much on trend. There’s such a feeling of classic luxury to this one. You may have a trench but not a suede trench!” Reformation, $1,138, 87 Yorkville Ave.

E. LEATHER VEST

“This has a soft, luxurious feel to it, and it’s so gorgeous with the patch pockets and that buttery kind of colour.” Ssense, SALE $224, ssense.ca

F. MINI SKIRT

“This is very cool and funky, definitely something I would have worn back in the day! This could be worn with textured stockings and over-the-knee boots into fall.” Holt Renfrew, $168, 50 Bloor St. W.

G. COLLARED SHIRT

“I love the pocket detail and the cap sleeve, and it can even be worn open — so sporty and casual with a nice length.” Massimo Dutti, $479, 3401 Dufferin St.

H. BELT

“This is modern, sleek, understated and will give you a great pop of colour.” Freda’s, $115, 45 Elm St. 

I. MOTO JACKET

“This is a great Canadian label. I love this little moto jacket. I love the elegant cut and the colour definitely says ‘autumn!’” Soia & Kyo, $375, soiakyo.ca

J. STACKED HEEL BOOT

“This has a bit of Western styling to it. I love the colour and that nice stacked heel. It’s very sleek and looks comfortable.” Browns, $378, 1 Bass Pro Mills Dr.

H. MIDI SKIRT

“I love the luxury of this skirt. It’s got a flounce to it, and it’s very sensual and strong — such a classic in your wardrobe.” Massimo Dutti, $529, 3401 Dufferin St.
