Leopard & Longline blazer loving!!

I'm a huge fan of leopard print and also a huge fan of the harem style high waisted trousers that River Island do. I featured these amazing trousers in my December/January favourites post, I picked them up for only £10 in the sale and was super happy to find them. I have a couple of pairs of this style and love the shape and fit, they always seem to do this style each season but just vary the patterns/material/colours. I love that you get a belt with them too and this chunky one is fab. I had the same belt on one of my other pairs but it's got a bit old and worn so I was thrilled to get a new one. These trousers are great for dressing up or down but I decided to go for an evening look for this post as I wore this to go out for drinks. I teamed them with a lace/mesh bralet I picked up from Urban Outfitters for only £5. It is a little sheer with it being lace with mesh underneath but it's actually ok when it's on and I really like the cut out detail. Obviously it's still too chilly to be flouncing around in a bralet so I covered up with my fab longline blazer from Oasis. I have so many Blazers and love them but I specifically love this as I like the longer length. It looks really classy but has more of an edge than a standard blazer and doesn't look too officey as a lot of black blazers tend to do. It's great for going out as it'll keep you warmer but won't ruin your outfit like sometimes a coat can. The belt has a chunky gold buckle so I went for a black and gold vintage bag, a chunky gold necklace, a cord choker and big Indian style hoops to tie in with it. To grunge it up a little I wore my kick push platform boots and black velvet lime crime Velvetine on my lips.
