It's official. I have an obsession with jackets and coats. I feel like that's all I buy these days. Well, that and shoes. I bought this beauty at Zara on Friday.

It's faux-fur and it's the softest thing I've ever felt. Also, it's got that swingy, 1960s mod thing going on, which I really love. Thoughts?

Subversive Jewelry Sample Sale

Ideeli is having a Subversive sample sale right now. I'm sort of salivating over the Political Tyranny necklace, but it's still $739. Yikes. Anyone want to buy it for me?

Wild Things.

I'm so excited for Where The Wild Things Are. Apparently so is the fashion world. Both Opening Ceremony and Urban Outfitters have collections inspired by the film. Naturally, Opening Ceremony's is cooler, but less wearable and way WAY more expensive. Maybe that's because Spike Jonze was a collaborator on the collection. UO's pieces are still cute though. Let's take a look!

Urban Outfitters

I sort of need this white shirt.

Opening Ceremony

I also need this skirt. Gift it to me, please?

Yes!

So that leather jacket I told you about from Urban Outfitters didn't work out. It ended up fitting really weird. So today I returned it and decided to look at a few thrift and vintage stores for the perfect biker jacket. This is what I found:

What do you think? I really like it. The shoulders are RIDICULOUS, but in the good way. It's vintage Wilson's leather, and I got it for $50 at Buffalo Exchange. Pretty good find, right?

The Jacket Is Revealed!

Remember when I told you about a very special jacket that Alexander Wang designed for Gap? Racked has posted pictures of TWO Alex Wang jackets! Ah! I still really love that khaki motercycle jacket. Racked also reports that Gap will be carry some Vena Cava pieces; that dress with the zipper has to be one of them, don't you think? God, I CAN'T WAIT until June. Seriously.

Mind the Gap

You know how Gap does those "Design Edition" collaberations with CFDA/Vogue fashion fund nominees? It's happening again! Sort of. Gap VP, Patrick Robinson, just spilled the beans to Teen Vogue that Alexander Wang will be designing a khaki motercycle jacket for the project, and it retails under $100! The jacket hits stores June 16 and I'm totally putting that in my caledar. It's too bad I'll be living in New York instead of Houston when the jacket arrives, because I'm sure the lines will be much shorter/nonexistant. Oh well. Anyone want to stand in line with me?
