This is not a sponsored post.

On October 15, Nancy and I will be posting the next edition of The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book and we would love for you all to join us! It is that time again to share some of your favorite and least favorite items for October’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. This month we are featuring all things Leather or Faux Leather. Whether it be jackets, pants, skirts, dresses, blazers, shoes, boots, bags, hats or gloves, we want to see your favorite (or least favorite) leather pieces. We thought this was a fun theme playing off of last month’s lacy things. There is nothing quite so edgy as a good leather and lace combination, is there? So if you have an outfit that combines both elements, do share those, too!

What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book?

It is a monthly series that Nancy and I will both publish on our blogs on the 15th of each month. Anyone who would like to participate and be featured can send us their photos with a short description explaining if the item was a Good Buy or one that you will be saying Good-Bye to. We will give you the theme for the next month in each post. Photos will be due to us by the 10th of the month. So please join us for October by sending us some photos of your favorite (or least favorite) Leather things with a brief description as to why you love or hate them!

You can choose yourself whether you want to show a Good Buy (which is an item you are really exited about) or a Good-Bye (which is an item you are going to say good-bye to). We will keep purchasing Bad Buys every now and then for a variety of reasons…it was so cheap, you were in a hurry and really wanted (needed) to buy something, it fit almost quite right. But, of course, we also have those purchases that can make us so very happy. A piece of clothing or accessory that you have had for years and that you also wear a lot. Or something you bought on a holiday and every time you wear it you get that nostalgic holiday feeling back. Every month you can choose which item you want to submit. A Good Buy or a Good-Bye. We will provide the theme for each month. Photos should be submitted to us by the 10th of the month with a few sentences explaining why it is a Good Buy or Good-Bye.

I went searching through the archives on my blog to find some leather things to share for inspiration. This is what I’ve found.
