D.I.S.C.O

Vest: Topshop
Disco Pants: American Apparel
Shoes: Topshop
Necklace: Primark

So a little while ago (er, about 2 months!) I mentioned that I'd ordered the famous American Apparel Disco Pants. I've literally hardly worn them due to the warm temperature recently, so when it was a bit chillier on Friday I finally got to wear/photograph them. I absolutely love them, they're so comfortable and the material is really flattering. I tried them on in store before ordering online (to get the 15% discount) and having repeatedly read that people tend to downsize with Disco Pants, I tried on the small. I found I actually couldn't get them past my knees! So I opted for the medium! I don't know how people fit in the small, or xsmall?!

I had originally purchased the Glamorous dupes (I literally bought them the morning they announced they were selling them!) for the much more affordable price of £30, but the afternoon after I'd ordered them I got a phonecall saying that they were actually dark charcoal rather than black, as advertised on the website (although they've now updated it). When I received them I found they were grey and the material was much thinner. AA Disco Pants are like trousers, the Glamorous version are definitely more like leggings. Had I not already tried the AA version I probably would have been just as happy with the dupes, but I already had my heart set on the higher quality of the AA ones! So I was a little disappointed and decided to send the Glamorous ones back. I guess it depends on what you're looking for, I think the Glamorous ones are still good for the price! I'm considering getting the Glamorous Disco Shorts now!

Do you like/have Disco Pants? There are numerous dupes on the market now, which ones have you bought? x

  1. I have the AA High Shine leggings which I love but I really want a pair of disco pants. Going to wait until I lose a few lbs though as I don't think they'd be very flattering on me at the moment!

    1. They do a good job of 'sucking in' so they aren't as unforgiving as you'd think! x

  5. Those disco pants look really great on you, I don't think I would be able to pull them off though. I once tried on leather pants and I looked super duper awkward in them haha
