Leather and Leopard













After a 6 years of endless wear, many 'where-did-you-get-that's and numerous near-misses in terms of losing it, my beloved Topshop leather jacket has finally succumbed to threadbare elbows and a slightly greenish tinge and subsequently forced me to, very guiltily, to reinvest in a shiny new biker courtesy of Whistles. 

London was unrelentingly hot yesterday but it was just about cool enough to throw on my new purchase for a few shots (and then hastily removing it to head down into the sweltering tube).

Worn here with vintage Levis cut-offs, LNA T-shirt, Bertie leopard pony skin boots, Topshop belt and Celine bag. 

The quilted leather biker jacket is called the Marlon quilted and is by Whistles.
