Toughen up your look with Rita's Balmain trousers

A pair of skinny leather trousers is a must-have wardrobe staple for any style maven. Although, coming in at well over £2000, we’re not so sure that Rita’s coveted Balmain bikers are quite what we had in mind.
Featuring quirky side pockets, gold fastenings and quilted leather panelling, these stand-out trousers are classic Balmain. Great for day and night-time wear, they will inject instant cool into any look (that’s if you can afford to wear them out of the house).
Team with a monochrome ensemble and sky high Louboutins for a chic outfit that Kate Moss would be proud of, or opt for bright separates and clashing accessories for a nineties inspired feel.
Luckily the high street has some great alternatives that won’t break the bank. For those of us on a tighter budget, faux leather is the way forward and these River Island skinnies are the ideal starting place. We are also totally in love with Zara's coated zip trousers (below).
