eBay vs American Apparel

Thought I'd switch it up a bit this week! When things become predictable they tend to get boring; don't worry though the usual Topshop version will be back next week :) American Apparel is my target this week, even more overpriced and much more basic although I hear the quality is much better... 
Stripe Thigh-High Sock, £20 | eBay version, £1.97
Natural Denim Circle Skirt, £38 | eBay version, £7.99
The Disco Pant, £70 | eBay version, £13.95
Unisex Flex Fleece Zip Hoodie, £40 | eBay version, £9.95
Cotton Spandex Sleeveless Turtleneck Crop Top, £23 | eBay version, £3.99
It's also worth mentioning that I think everything I posted above comes in a variety of colours too!

  4. Ahhh, I love thigh-high socks! They are so cool. I don't know what I could combine them with except for hot underwear :D

    The cotton spandex thingy reminds me of an old series character, who always wore such things. I think it was Piper Halliwell from Charmed! Oh, old telly times!

  15. I have never understood the fascination with the disco pant - when they are no different from what else is out there. I mean £70 for a pair of shiny leggings is ridiculous!
