They seem to be everywhere at the moment.
Are they a bit... cheap looking?
Are they comfortable?
What do you wear them with?
These are ones from New Look.

I love pairing mine with a lighting sweater and boots... must wear semi seer tights... the different textures are very pleasing to the eye and make you look very well put together and styled.

I have so many of these, I wear mine with chunky jumpers or blouses and yes they are comfortable.

I like how they look on others, but I had a jacket in that material and it started to peel so it's put me off buying anything in fake leather.

They'd be great for the rain.

I should have asked if they are sweaty. I run hot anyway but Im struggling with all the heating going on. I'm either shivering or sweating. Im very rarely a comfortable temperature.

I’ve got the M & S ones from last year in black and chocolate brown, this year I’ve bought stone and black suede ones from Tu and Roman. I dress them up with silk or satin shirts, wear them casually with roll necks or knitted t shirts. Always wear with boots, knee high suede cowboy style or ankle sock boots.

Well, fake leather is going to be something entirely plastic, isn't it? Do you fancy wearing that? Plasticy, sweaty, bad for the planet, if it rubs you are left with a strange bare patch with the fabric webbing beneath showing. It's a no for me.

PS I also love the black New Look top, might order that!

Ooh I am glad of this thread, I’ve just picked one up from vinted and am yet to wear it. I was going to go for a slouchy leopard print or black jumper and black boots.

But I do have a question… can I wear it with a (real) leather jacket???

Do you mean like this? Saw it on an infleuncer this weekend and toying whether to buy it or not.
