How Hole-some! Perforated Fashion

Whoever knew that holes in fashion could seem so PERFect? For those leather-lovers who hate putting away their favorite pieces with the rest of their cold-weather gear, perforated leather is a whole new way to wear the trend all year round. In their spring and summer collections, designers like Michael Kors and Proenza Schouler are opting for clothing and accessories with detailing that is punched in rather than popping out. From brightly colored bags to sleek pencil skirts, this peekaboo-esque style is breathable, sexy and is an easy go-to look for those trying to add some edge to their classic pieces. Whether pierced or laser-cut, perforated leather will pack some serious punch into your summer wardrobe. 

Let your feet breath in some fiery statement heels like these from Manolo Blahnik. The punctured detailing and the in-your-face pop of color add a little umph to the classic pump that will have everyone staring.

Leather shift dresses are perfect for day and night, and this bright tangerine leaps right off the page. The subtle pierced detailing on this dress further puts this Vince dress in the running for MVP in your closet.

Ditch that dingy sports bag and instead carry your daily essentials in this Coach satchel. Any bag from this designer is timeless, but the delicate perforations add a surprisingly modern texture to the classic Haley satchel. 

Stay Hole-y!
