The custom of Jewish women is not to wear their
finest jewelry on Yom Kippur. The jewelry that
they generally wear on Shabbat and Yom Tov in
honor of those days, they do not wear on Yom
Kippur because Yom Kippur is a day of judgment,
it's a serious day, and therefore you are allowed
to wear jewelry, just not your finest. And
secondly, regarding leather on your clothing,
the prohibition is only to wear leather
shoes. However, if you have a leather
belt or you have leather on other garments,
that is not a problem to wear on Yom Kippur.
