>> I seem to have fallen into a bit of a pattern of posting about "Things that sit well in the harsh reality of life...". Eight London is one example and so the new S/S 10 collection of Swagga and Soul is another one. The first time I wrote about them Gucci Cosmetic Case, I had M.I.A. punching around in my head, and I also said that they provided all the kind of leather basics that one would need with some extra pizazz on top; like the soft distressed quality of the leathers they use that pushes you into thinking that you NEED rather than WANT that leather jacket.
They haven't let go of the leather for S/S 10 and rightly so when it's as soft as Swagga and Soul get it. They have lightened things up with the pale pale pink and grey colours as well as making things looser in general. Nicole Portugal Soccer Jersey, the designer has kept elements like the fringing and some of the hardware but transferred to the sort of 'essentials' that she considers well...essential. I'm glad she's kept the loose-trews in her summer repertoire for me to potentially wear them like lux trackie bottoms. She's also redressed the leather shorts omission by putting some here. And women��s handbags, is that a length of skirt I spy that ISN'T skimming the bum? It's not quite floor length but I can already feel the lengths creeping down towards the knees/calves and I'm fully onboard for that...
Here's to a floor length leather skirt for next season?
