One of the little trends that seem to have popped up this year is the classic old Varsity 'Letterman' jacket. Bringing to mind american college, 'jocks', and all those old shows I used to love as a youngster: Happy Days (where I have a sneaking suspicion even the Fonz donned one once), Grease, Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop, Michael J Fox in Teen Wolf, and the list goes on!
Aaaaahhhhhhhh, the memories*!
Oh, and of course how could I forget - The Electric Company: "Faster than a rolling "O", stronger than silent "E", able to leap capital "T" in a single bound! It's a word. It's a plan. It's LETTERMAN!"
xxo
* It's not all nostalgia of course. If you're looking for more up-to-date letterman-lovers then you're quite spoilt for choice, with fans such as Gossip Girls Vanessa Abrahms (Jessica Szohr), or even Lady Gaga, who of course put her own spiky style-spin on this iconic jacket.
