DISCO…

disco
Leather jacket: Topshop
T-shirt: Primark
’Disco’ leggings: Lookbook store: ebay
Sunglasses: ebay,
Silver neck cuff: H&M
Bag: Zara
Vans authentics

I had been contemplating buying a pair of American Apparel disco pants for a little while (who hasn’t) but aside from the price (a whopping £70) I couldn’t quite decide on a colour. I was torn between black, midnight blue & charcoal. I eventually came to the realisation that spending 70 squids on a pair of trousers was a little steep, especially if I ended up buying the wrong colour, so I went looking for alternatives. Oh hai again ebay! After Ashleigh tweeted that she had bought a pair & that she loved them, I couldn’t resist, I had to try them out for myself.

To start, they come in an array of different colours, I ended up choosing ‘blue grey’ & I’m so glad I did, they are such a lovely colour! They are a very similar material to the AA ones however they don’t have a button fastening & they aren’t as high waisted as actual disco pants but with a cleverly placed belt, that problem is solved. Now for the best news, these babies cost less than £7 & postage was free! I deffo need more of these in my life! I have my eyes on the red & navy blue ones next.

What do you think? Great value, eigh? ;)

    These are an amazing alternative, and such a lovely colour. I hate tight things near my bum area though so maybe i'd wear them with a tunic lols.

    I found a way to put two pictures together using html yay! Give me a tweet if you need the codes!

      They are a different material but they are very similar, they remind me of the AA shiny nylon tricot leggings too! They are such a great price & come in so many different colours! Such a bargain! ^_^ xx

      Aahha no worries, they are all one size so you just select how many you want to buy, click buy it now then when you are paying there is a box where you can leave the seller a note, that's where you tell them the colour(s) that you want ^_^ xx

      I was worried about the sizing myself as it says in the listing that they would fit up to a size 14 & I'm only an 8 but they fit great not too loose not too tight ^_^ xx

    I love your outfits so much and as a student AA disco pants are wayyyy out of my price range so I think I have to buy these ones! one question tough I really worried about the sizing I'm a 6-8 and have rather skinny legs do you think they will be on for me?
