As a lover of things black, studded, zippered or metalled in some way or other, I’ve really fallen for some of the pieces I’ve seen. To the extent where I saw something I wanted yesterday in the latest Harpers Bazaar, and today went out and got it.
The “to-die-for” item I had to have? Black studded Union Jack leggings from Cue. So punk! So goth! So chic!
The leggings and epaulets are very sass and bide – they are my fav aussie designers! Ive actually just been to DJs this week and saw some awesome leggings at S&B;, and I know Christopher Kane did a collection for TopShop late last year that featured some studded leggings I was dying for — they can be found on ebay if you want to look it up 🙂
BTW check out Ashish at Topshop.co.uk
Oh, I knew that these were *ahem* "inspired" by other studded leggings, such as Topshop, and I was always going to get a pair of topshop studded ones, but the price and shipping and not being able to try on etc..put me off.
I've now seen that there's a veritable plethora of studded leggings out there. As it was Winter in Europe they've been out all through Nov – Jan, whereas in Australia, we're only just now coming into Winter and getting these cool things.
Yeah we always seem to get things earlier or later here and never at the same time as everyone else 🙂 You're right though, for a trend it's not really worth paying a bomb for if it may not last more than one winter.. saw a cheap version at supre today that I was tempted to pick up!
i absolutely love those Cue leggings!!!!!!!!!
