Style Heroes With Dorothy Perkins!

Last week Dorothy Perkins got in touch to see if we wanted to take part in the latest edition of Style Heroes, challenging bloggers to style up a selection of this season's must have trends. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! I was tasked with 'Skinny Pants and a Tote Bag', so I set to choosing two pieces that bounced off each other nicely. I chose the Black PU Skinny Trousers (£26) and the Black Croc Zip Front Tote (£30) because they are both an understated matte black faux leather, and when combined they edge up pretty much any transitional SS-AW look until you can fully lean into the plethora of fur, leather, black and burgundy joy that the cooler months bring!

As we're only just easing into AW from SS, I decided to pair these black staples with some baby pink faux fur and leopard flats. It's rained all week so please excuse the light on these pics, I'll be the first to admit that it's not doing these pieces justice but when you're on a deadline you just can't argue with mother nature and have to get on with it!

Outfit: PU trousers and tote bag - c/o Dorothy Perkins, Coat - Supertrash, Top - Supertrash, Shoes - Topshop.

I under-rolled these trousers because they're a touch too long for me and ain't nobody got time for ankle bunching, am I right? ;) In an ideal world I'd buy from the petite range but this style are only available in standard or Tall, boooo, but I think they still look cute. The tote bag is a fab size, perfect for carrying a brolly, which is top of my list for any AW bag requirements!
