Skin-tastic


For about the past year or so I’ve searched in vain for a leather jacket that was both classic and affordable. Apparently however, finding such an item is like looking for the Holy Grail— comically futile. That was until I saw Avon’s new GENUINE leather jacket coming out in Campaign 18. The motorcycle-style jacket is an instant staple; the cut is fashion forward but also universally functional. Everyone I know who owns a leather jacket says that they’re "life-staples": pieces of clothing that you can wear forever, and Avon’s new leather jacket is no exception. The dark brown color and tried-and-true fit make this a piece I can wear to every occasion for years to come. And at $109.99, I don’t have to sacrifice paying my bills to afford it. This jacket will be paying for itself the minute you put it on, and given the popularity of leather these days, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
Leather is everywhere this season,, from high-heeled ankle booties, to thigh highs, the texture adds just enough punch to every outfit. But finding well-made boots in genuine suede or leather is almost impossible. Once again, Avon saves the day. Seriously, if fashion had an iron lung, it would be Avon. At $39.99 each, Avon’s new Cushion Walk Must Have Grey Bootie and Suede Over-the-Knee Cushion Walk boots are stylish, affordable ways to have fall’s biggest fashion trend literally at your feet. What’s more, these boots really are made for walking, as they also include Cushion Walk technology to keep your feet comfortable as you pound the pavement. Between Campaign 18’s fabulous leather jacket and the stylish boots, you don’t have to be another victim of fashion, or have bad credit. In fact at Avon, for only $150, you can have it all!
