The Brighton Topshop never seem to stock anything vaguely desirable for me, and it is by sheer desperation that I picked up these fake leather trouser today in exchange for that unique leather dress (half price in the sale, but a huge disappointment. Literally, it's fucking huge.) I tried them on as a joke at first but they turn out to fit well, despite the slightly dodgy pleather - ness. I guess I'll be using them more for layering purposes than wearing them outright a la edgy French editors. Who knows, they might even be appappropriate for Halloween.

ps: Most of you may have already seen the fab Kirsty Lee's Vlog for the Absolut Vodka event. I made an increasingly legless appearance, it all started so innocently with two drink tokens.. I swear.

Very cute outfit. Casual and chic.
you got the cheap peacocks boots!
How are they? Comfortable? x
g: They were surprisingly okay for cheapie boots. I only walk around them for 10 minutes though, we'll see if I break them in :)
I bet those pleather pants get more use than you expect. For layering, sure, but they look fantastic with just your stripy top, too.
I plan to get those boots tomorrow =]
And yeah i guess the pleather trousers would look better layered.
I still like them on their own.
True fabulosity =]
all i can say is that, THANK GOD you're the one wearing it! anyone less stylish would look completely from PETA.
have you tried going on expressfashion.com? they have cheaper, leather versions of these leggings.
wow, they don't look pleather-like at all. i think they look great on you and u should def. keep them!
I love your boots! You were pleather pants very well, I must say.
I vote yes to them!
I like them! You're definitely working the pleather trews!
Cute outfit =]
I love your shoes!!
I'm not quite sure about the pleather, really...The same way I'm completely unsure about lamé leggings... but I do know for certain, Michelle, that those boots are simply brill.

Those trousers look really good on you!Nice outfit!
I adore the entire outfit.The trousers are perfect.
the peacocks boots look awesome :D
The boots are amazing! and the pants look good too, so don't worry about them being pleather.
love this outfit x
love this outfit x
i like it.. I think it would look good with a t-shirt as well, or a blouse and fitted jacket :)
But don't Topshop do a pair of leather trews too....? The pleather ones do look good though.... just odd that they happen to do both?
I wish we had a Topshop here, period. It's still expensive for us Americans (damn the exchange rate to hell!) with the Topshop in New York. I know how you feel about the leather obsession. I just bought a leather skirt and jacket from a thrift store yesterday. Those boots are amazing *drool*
i watched that video...hahaha....
mmm i'd love to see you rocking these with something soft .
OOh I got those boots yesterday, they didn't have my size so I bought a size up and trying to break them in now with thick thick socks.
Oh, forget it, two drinks just make me want to have four! and so on..but I like the pleather, I had a pair like these for ages and was very happy with them.
i have to say - you look good in those trousers!!
i have to say - you look good in those trousers!!
yes ma'am!
love those pants
the boots!!! swoon.
Love the pleather trousers, they would never look nice on me though! And I am still very much tempted to get the peacocks boots.
Hot damn, I am LOVING those pants so so much!
excellent boots! wish i lived somewhere near a topshop... none in australia though.
i like your aesthetic
