Afropeenne: Dure à cuir

Dure à cuir

Considering my latest purchases, one constant jumped out: most of them had a bit of leather.

Out of recent incursions in h&m, I got a leather jacket from the new collection.

Honestly it was an impulse purchase and, judging from the recent drop of temperatures, one I won't be able to wear quite soon.

What drived me to get it was the colour between a light pink and beige, the mix of materials (leather and suede), the fit with 3/4 sleeves, narrow shoulders and a reasonable price.

I'm sure this little leather number will be in heavy use come warmer (and drier) weather.

This bag (again) from Gap (again!) joined my collection. It's a mix of canvas and leather with lots of pockets, an adjustable strap, very functional.
At the same occasion, I also got the long searched for trousers.

And this sales find, a leather trimmed wrap skirt by Isabel Marant.

Thank you Koko! H&M has a knack for delivering clothes "inspired" by such and such.It's like a quizz game whenever I go there, I'm like: oh, this is so Chloé, so Wang...

Lin: Thanks!! You really sum up what I want! I've already wore the bag all past week! I'm so pleased with it.
