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?

Fall Essential: The Jacket.

Fall is upon us. Actually, it's probably started for some of you, which makes me super jealous. It's still in the 90s here in Houston. But, I digress . . . The essential piece in any girls fall wardrobe is the jacket. My two favorite jacket's are the boyfriend blazer and the biker jacket. Here are some options I've been salivating over:

Blazer

Alexander McQueen, $1,960, Net-a-Porter

French Connection, $148, frenchconnection.com

I own this FC blazer and I'm OBSESSED. At first I thought it was a little long and was worried it would look weird if I wore it with jeans. But, I don't really wear jeans and it looked so great over the skirts and dresses. I couldn't resist. I've already worn it out several times. So great.

Biker Jacket

Rick Owens, $2,695, Net-a-Porter

Levi's, $298, Urban Outfitters

I just ordered this Levi's jacket online, and I'm super excited for it to arrive. It's the perfect, classic biker jacket, complete with zippers and all. I'll let you guys know how it works out!

Obsession: Legging Jeans

Legging jeans. I was a little skeptical when it came to the supertight-fitting denim trend, but now I'm officially a convert. My friend Kathryn has these Silence and Noise Pull-On Jeans from Urban Outfitters, and they always looked so cute on her.

So, I decided to go down to the mall to try some on for myself. THEY ARE AMAZING. The denim is superstretch, so they basically suck your legs in. It has a higher rise elastic waistband, so you don't have to deal with the pesky muffin top. Like I said, they're amazing. Also, they're the first pair I've jeans I've ever bought that don't stretch out in like 20 minutes. Don't they make my legs look great? (Sorry for the giant picture)

Thrift Store Finds

Everyone loves a good thrift store.  So, I've decided to start a segment about the awesome things I find at thrift stores!  Yes!  Here are a few items I picked up over the weekend.

Miu Miu flats, $129, found at More Than You Can Imagine.  More Than You Can Imagine is this really awesome thrift store the sells only designer items.  It's on Westheimer, across the street from Chuys, in River Oaks.  You know all the rich socialites are discarding all of last season's stuff to this place.  I even found a cream Prada Fall 08 lace skirt for $200!  Too bad it was the same color as my skin . . .

Plaid dress, $6.50, found at Buffalo Exchange

Stella McCartney for Whatever It Takes Tote, $17, found at Buffalo Exchange.  You may remember they were selling this bag at Urban Outfitters a few months ago for like $50.

Kim Gordon / Urban Outfitters

Oh Kim, I love your forays into various mediums of art!  Kim Gordon has designed a small collection for Urban Outfitters.  It's called Mirror/Dash, from the name of Kim and Thurston Moore's side project.  I love the skirt at left; I'm a sucker for a good high waisted skirt.  But, I don't know how I feel about the rest of the collection. The styling in the little ad is good, but the pieces are kind of boring.  I want to say I love it because I love Kim Gordon, and Sonic Youth.  I don't know.
