Leopard poncho: Nasty gal (worn before here). Wool jumper: H&M for men. Snake bite leggings by Stylestalker: Spanish Moss (available here). Boots: Steve Madden. Bag: LF. Hat: Makin. Shades: Ray Ban. Lips: MAC in ‘Show Orchid’
***
Men’s jumpers are better than the women’s. You get lost in them and don’t have to pull the sleeves down. Brilliant.
****
Normally I’d wear plain leggings or skinnies with jumpers like this, but these corset versions got me. A bit like wearing suspender tights. It’s a spin on a basic. Bonus points: Be cat woman for Halloween. Speaking of basic spinners, I’m with you lot on the GZ boots. I can’t even wait to blog post wearing them.

Fantastic post!
Those snake bite type legging/tights, whatever you might call them, in this case suspender tights, they’re amazing, they’d be good for putting an edge on some of the spring trends.
Loved the cardi in the first pic!
And gorgeous boots, I can’t wait either!

Karen says:
Ms Syllybee – I may have to try that. Wearing mens flannels in bed.
Rochelle – no they aren’t in the vintage section. Would be KILLER though to find a vintage version….
Amina – New years I was feet up on the sofa wearing a hoodie and jogging pants and socks lol!
Purse n Boots – you nut case : )) But sure you can have BOTH if I can have your two tone leather jacket!!! yes, you KNOW the one I’m talking about
OnYsSta – ok, no leggings are quite worth THAT but I get your point ; ))
Sing – yes do. I make a bee line for that section in winter, ESPECIALLY during sales too.
lauren baluyo says:
Karen, I’m in LOVE with this outfit. There’s something truly special about those corset leggings. They’re not at all extreme and do seem like a staple item that we should all have in our possessions. 🙂

OMG the leggings! I really dig them, but I couldn’t justify getting them, I have jeans that lace up the side kinda very like those, they make me feel very Guns & roses, its always good to be able to rock some Guns ‘n’ Roses every now & then! x
