Silken & Leather Things

Top & Pants: Sheinside / Shoes: Alexander Wang / Clutch: SM Accessories / Earrings: Jewelry Shop / Eyewear: Karen Walker

Felt all sorts of giddy when I stumbled upon these perfect tapered scarf-print trousers and vegan leather bralette Zara dupes from Sheinside. Pretty proud of myself for not hitting the purchase button the moment I saw these pieces at the first release of the Zara Spring/Summer '13 collection because these Sheinside pants and top are way cheaper vs. Zara's, even at an on-sale price. In terms of footwear choice, I was contemplating on whether to match this ensemble with a basic pair of black sandals or the Alexander Wang Aline (white version on sale HERE!) but the latter seemed to be the perfect choice. A series of other ensembles featuring this top and trousers are already in the works so expect to see these pieces on the blog again soon.
