With nineties fashion disaster staples leggings having come back with a bang it was only a matter of time before they were joined by their sister item, the cycling short. Now it seems that time has come as, according to the March issue of Cosmo, the cycling short is back for summer 2009. Appropriately placed in their 'fun fearless fashion' section they recommend pairing them with heels and a tailored jacket or cardigan, the manner in which they were shown on the catwalk at Abaeté's sports wear inspired spring/ summer 2009 show. While we recommend leaving the shorts for the gym we can't get enough of their cute Lady Gaga-esque playsuits and their flowing summer dresses in lemon, baby blue and, this season's hot colour combination, peach and pink, all paired with sheer pastel tights.
