luxury vs reality | faux leather pants

Until recently, whenever I’ve thought about leather pants I’ve always pictured the scene from Friends when Ross gets stuck in them while on a date lol. Needless to say they’re not an item that I ever thought about buying. Until now.

I don’t know if it’s because I see them popping up on blogs and in magazines but lately the whole leather pants thing has grown on me. But when I looked into purchasing them I found out not surprisingly, they’re not cheap. Clearly these aren’t exactly budget-conscious nor even remotely practical, hence my decision NOT to buy $920 leather pants thank you very much.

These vegan leather jeans are the perfect substitute. Not only are they about a million dollars cheaper (OK or $822 but still) they have the same look and feel as the real thing. Maybe one day, I’ll splurge but for now I’m happy with my faux version and looking forward to wearing them (hopefully without any Ross-like situations.)
