Swagger Trends – Africana

In NYC, everyone’s got World Cup FIFA!  From shirts to shorts, South Africa’s made its way into the City’s threads like never before.  But no trend is more noticeable than the African beaded bangles popping up on kids Uptown and Downtown alike.  Take our Profilin’ girl Lungile, a South-African/New-Yorker who wears the bracelets religiously and our latest find, Isaac, who spices up a pretty simple outfit with a little wrist-flair.  Be on the lookout for your own piece of Africa.  Score!

Profilin’: I Bleed Six Colours…

THE FIFA WORLD CUP HAS BEGUN!

11th June 2010. An incredible day not only for FIFA, but for Africa. New York is alive with football fever. I see flags of all the 32 countries swaying in the strange wind. It’s different this time round. And I think it has everything to do with the fact that it’s in my country.

I also had quite a good time “swagging” up my team apparel:

Style is everywhere–even when we scream like our voice boxes are indestructable and act like hooligans.

I’m ready. Question is…are you?
