While leather dresses and skirts have been staples on the runway for quite some time, leather décor is also incredibly chic. Along with classic furnishings like sleek leather sofas, this material is quickly appearing in a number of trendy new ways. From accent cushions to kitchen stools, keep these design suggestions in mind as you decorate your home this season.

Use a tan leather pillow to bring a sophisticated effect to your space: If you’re a fan of neutral décor, try revamping your space with a leather accent pillow in a warm shade of tan or camel. Place the cushion on a white armchair, and turn to pristine white shelves, potted plants and metallic photo frames to beautifully complement the leather.

Bring a dark brown leather armchair into your space: While the timeless black leather couch may have once been a mainstay at home, shades such as chocolate brown and cognac are equally gorgeous. Try decorating with a dark brown leather armchair, and contrasting this smooth fabric with a velvet sofa in a bright jewel tone. Meanwhile, ivory walls, a marble coffee table and a plush grey accent rug all help to complete the look.

Turn to leather bar stools for a contemporary look: For hip homeowners who worry about leather looking old-fashioned, funky stools can instantly liven up your kitchen. Look for sleeker structure and rich shades of brown, for a modern and stylish take on leather seating.
