Leather Trousers

If I had been told two years ago that in 2008 I'd be considering wearing leather trousers or leather-esque leggings, I would have found it hard to believe. But here I am sitting behind my laptop, contemplating whilst I type if whether or not I should purchase a pair of faux-leather leggings. I had a pair of leather trousers for bloody ages but I thought I'd never want to wear them and I gave them away to charity earlier this year. So now some lucky cow's probably running around with my trousers that they bought for £3

The trend's been brewing for a while now. Those models where fans of this look not too long ago, and now it's filtered (or should I say spilled)onto the high street, all you have to do is take a trip to Oxford Street and you'll find them in every other window.

I really do want to buy a pair, but I'm 5'2.5" (yes the .5 counts) and I've got a lil thickness in the thighs so I'm a bit worried about how they'd look, but Keyshia Cole (above) appears to be making them work so I'm sure I'd be able to handle them. I just hope that if I do buy them they wont end up on the pile of stuff I've bought but have never worn.
