I finally got my biker jacket! I can now die happy– but then I wouldn’t get to wear it, so scratch that! A leather bike jacket is a must in any woman’s wardrobe and it doesn’t have to be the expensive kind either. Now, sure I could’ve invested on a real leather biker jacket because it would last longer, but I just didn’t see the need to do so. This H&M biker jacket feels and looks amazing. Below I’ll give you some of the good and bad of getting a faux leather jacket vs. a real leather jacket. Also, if you like the look from top to bottom I’ll link them below the photo or have something similar š
