Ooh, shiny shiny!!!

I may have mentioned on more than one occasion how much I love leggings. Well, a couple of weeks ago, I was on and off Topshops website and kept peeking at these lame snakeskin wet look leggings. Anyhow, after a couple of days I succumbed to temptation and bought them!! I'm glad I did, as they fit really well and they are now out of stock. Plus, I got in before my self imposed 'no more clothes for a while' ban.


I intend on wearing these on my Xmas night out with work friends. I will wear them with my black merino wool boyfriend cardi-belted, black heeled ankle boots or my Giles Deacon for New Look studded sandals and not sure yet about what top underneath!! We are going for a meal, so just as well these have stretch to them-haha!!
Do you have any Xmas nights out planned-more importantly, do you have the outfit planned yet!!

hey honey,thank you for the lovely comment on my new posting. the dress was a birthday gift from a friend.its by wim hemmink who makes couture. i customised it as it was very eighties and a tad too large. Thank you for the award too dear!
I love the sound of your xmas do outfit,you will look fabulous. I have no outfits planned for xmas yet,i find it hard planning so hard ahead ;o) and when i do,wear something different in the end.It is a good thing you got them before they went out of stock and you will get to wear them as day and night wear. yes dont forget to be wearing your lovelies for normal everyday occasion,pair them down with basics and they will fit right in,the wooly tights and layers willk keep you warm ;o)
kisses dear

it doesnt matter if you're going to pair it with your black ankle boot or the studded sandals. Either way, i bet you would look smoking!

Angela said...

Hi S, you are planning way in advance. I like your legging though. I would wear it with knee high boots. I still don't know what to wear for date with bf this friday.... : )

Hi Savvy-LOL, this is my only night out between now and Xmas, so its easy to prepare!! As a mum, I really don't go out in the evenings anymore (aah, poor me, haha!) Thanks for tip about the boots too, I'll try long boots, ankle boots and my sandals-I'll see what works best-cheers!

Sharon S said...

I had to give up on leggings. I have the pins for them - but leggings go saggy-kneed so quickly! :(

Dana (MODAna) said...

wow to be honest I never would've imagined you in these but so glad you like them!!
I love buying something then seeing it's out of stock, thanking my good judgement :)

Fashion_Loving_Stylist said...

I want them! I have to have them! Where oh where can I get them!

Sharon S said...

Hi ladies who lunch-Yes, I've always loved leggings-I caught the bug in the 80s, so I'm pleased they're back in again!

Hi kate-ooh, do get some, there are some fabulous ones around at the moment!

Hi Geri-thanks my dear!

Hi wendy-I will oblige soon, LOL!!

Hi Miss Thrifty-oh, don't give up, I think here the problem may be the quality of them. I've had a plain pair from Uniqlo for over 6 months now and they were only £8 but they wash and wear really well!!

Hi Dana-haha, I like to surprise!! I was kinda surprised to see them out of stock-that means they were very popular!!

Hi lenya-oh yes do get some, I can see you rocking these too!

Human Racing said...

Love the leggings. I can't see how you wear them!

Sharon S said...

Hi Nay'chelle-thanks my dear!

Always In Style said...

I'm impressed that your Xmas outfit is already planned - I'm not quite so organized.

I do love these though, can't wait to see photos, the outfit sounds really cool.

FASHION CHALET said...

Can't wait to see how you rock 'em. I have the similar ones from American Apparel and looooove them. Just waiting for the cold weather to arrive so I can officially break them in! ;)

Sharon S said...

Hi always in style-thanks my dear, I'm trying my best to organise myself, so I don't fall flat around Xmas!!

Hi fashion chalet-yes, I'm pleased I did get these, I will wear them soon too!

Couture Carrie said...

Ooooh thinking about holiday parties is soooo exciting - I have a fab sequined La Petite Salope bustier that I have been "saving" for just such an occasion.
Love the shiny leggings too; I have my American Apparel ones that I haven't been brave enough to wear yet...

xoxox,

Sharon S said...

Hi couture carrie-haha, thats me too, I want to be brave and wear mine soon!! Your bustier sounds gorgeous!

I love such shiny leggins but I still haven't found the perfect pair!

Skye said...

Fabulous leggings - I think they're perfect for layering under your equally fabulous frocks so you can overcome the 20/80 situation in style!

Sharon S said...

Hi nadine-good luck on finding a pair my dear!!

Hi Skye-fabulous idea, thanks so much!
