FAILURE BY DESIGN

Coat // Missguided
Top // Missguided
Leggings // Missguided

Another look from my Missguided shoot - so happy with how the photos turned out!  All the other looks featured skirts so I felt I had to bring in some leggings to break it up a bit - love these crushed velvet ones!  Hope you guys like the photos!

VOLTAGE RUNNING THROUGH HER SKIN

Leotard* // Electric Tees
Belt // H&M
Disco Pants* // AX Paris
Spiked Damsels // Jeffrey Campbell
Necklace* // AOKO NY
Rings // Rachael Sudlow, markets, ebay, vintage

I do own American Apparel disco pants which I've featured before, although black gets very boring - which is why I decided to go for a brighter colour, specifically turquoise!  I've seen some people wearing red disco pants but never a colour like this so I thought it would be fun to style.
I know a lot of people are interested in how dupes compare to American Apparel disco pants, and honestly these are hot on the tail of the real thing.  The material is thick but stretchy at the same time, the colour is very vibrant, with identical pockets (which is what lets down a lot of dupes) plus they are £25.99 so nearly £50 off the RRP - go AX Paris!  I would say, however, that the sizes come up small - I got the size 8 and because I have very wide hips I should really have chosen a 10, but these fit very well on my legs so might just need breaking in.
I thought I'd team the disco pants with my awesome leotard from Electric Tees which I love so much - the print is so unique and simple, with a flattering scoop back that has a different, striped pattern.
Anyway I've blabbed a lot in this post!  I hope you all like the outfit!  I also added more items to my blog sale if you haven't seen it already so check it out!

I'M NOT YOUNG AND AFRAID

Jacket* // Freestyle Xtreme
Necklace // Primark
Top* // She Likes
Disco pants // American Apparel
Bracelet // eBay
Spiked Damsels // Jeffrey Campbell
Rings // Rachael Sudlow, Native Feathers*, eBay, Topman

I would usually wear a top like this with a skirt but I couldn't quite find one that matched and didn't want to pair it with the boohoo skirt I've featured in a few outfits.  I think it does look good with my disco pants though and absolutely love this Jack Daniels jacket!  I've not seen anything similar to it before and if you've been a follower of my blog for a while you'll know I absolutely adore anything with back detail!  I do like my disco pants with this outfit but as of recently I've been staying away from them.  Don't get me wrong, I love the shape and the quality is good but when I think about it, it's disappointing that I spent so much on them when the elastic is coming apart, and they've never fit me properly (too short and baggy ankles).  Why did I buy them before any dupes were available!? waaa

GHOSTS THAT WE KNEW

Ace of spades vest* // SinStar
Check shirt // Charity shop
Disco pants // American Apparel
Spike Damsels // Jeffrey Campbell
Necklaces // DIY, Regal Rose
Rings // Rachael Sudlow, market stalls, AOKO NY*

I've been so excited to post this look as it's the first of probably many outfits that feature my new Jeffrey Campbell spiked damsels!  I ordered them in the £30 Sole Trader boxing day sale and I absolutely love them.  I have a shoe unboxing filmed for you which I'll post asap but in the meantime you can drool over them in these photos.

I received this and one other tee (which I'll post real soon!) from SinStar Clothing, a brand that does clothes for both girls and boys and they do really cool prints, ranging from simple black and white to cosmic island prints in a range of different cuts, as well as some awesome jackets and maxi dresses!  I love the cut of this top, and it's long to covers my bum, which I like too!
