The New Houlihan

Everybody wore the Houlihan to death last year, filtering down the fashion tree, notable high street copies were popping up everywhere. I still love mine and will wear them untill I can't bear their sight of them. However, my love of J Brand jeans has now extendted to the new AGNES style. A skinny style, slightly tighter than the Houlihan with zips on the bottom and the front pockets.

Rihanna, a J Brand disciple has got them in the leather-look style. I love them, such a safer option than all out leather trousers.

I invested in the distressed black twill versions
