The Look For Less: Mike & Chris Dusted Bronze Leather Jacket

FabSugar — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 13:00:08 -0700

I've been drooling over Mike & Chris leather jackets for quite a while, but the duo's latest design has me in a daze. This Mike & Chris Bronze Leather Jacket ($885) is très chic.

Metallic? Check. Leather? Check. I really need this awesome jacket but yikes! The price tag will leave me in financial agony. That leaves me with one choice. Find something cheaper, of course.

Now that's much better. This Spiegel Cropped Metallic Leather Jacket ($109, originally $129) is still awfully cute and much more affordable. I like how the scarf collar adds a sophisticated touch to the sheeny texture.

eBay Find of the Week

FabSugar — Sat, 29 Sep 2007 06:33:33 -0700

Leather jackets are here to stay for Fall and eBay is the perfect place to find one if you don't want to spend a fortune. I know this because I recently purchased a maroon leather jacket for way less than I would get at a store.

This Black Leather Motorcycle Jacket Size Medium goes hand in hand with with the androgynous theme we're seeing everywhere. It looks cool zipped up as well as unzipped. It should provide that touch of rough your feminine outfit craves this Fall.

Current bidding price is at $9.99 and the auction ends on Tuesday, October 2. Good luck and happy bidding!

Modern Leather Motorcyle Jackets

FabSugar — Tue, 14 Nov 2006 11:32:23 -0800

There are some fashions you put on that just make you feel cool: fabulous sunglasses, form-fitting jeans, black nail polish, an incognito trench, and killer heels. But the ultimate cool item spotted during these transitional Fall-to-Winter days has got to be the leather motorcycle jacket. As Keira Knightley and Lindsay Lohan have proven, this can be a pretty fierce cover-up. Our favorite way to wear these updated styles is over a feminine dress, the way the too-cool-for-school models have sported it. There are also more color options out there; browns and greens are a muted alternative to classic black. Check out some of my favorite finds at both designer and non-designer prices.

Keira's Mike & Chris Maxwell Black Leather Hoody, $792, available here.

Lindsay's Charlotte Quilted Hooded Leather Jacket, $695, available here.

Generra Girly Taupe Motorcycle Jacket, $595, available here.

Trend Alert: Moto Jeans

Get ready to rev up your denim collection. Moto jeans are the latest incarnation, and they're both sassy and sporty. We've seen motorcycle jackets and vests, but cross-stitches and patches on a slick pair of jeans are hard to resist.

My favorite, affordable pick is by Recession Denim - these dark denim Moto jeans with ribbed knit patches are statement jeans if I ever saw them. And, they're under $100. Temper them with a girlie ruffled top or cuddly soft knits - ready, set, moto!

Who Wore It Better? Alexander Wang Suede and Leather Motorcycle Jacket

FabSugar — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 05:15:22 -0700

Russian social and this week's Fab favorite, Dasha Zhukova, is going to have to battle it out with Lindsay Lohan for the Alexander Wang throne. She wore her Alexander Wang Suede and Leather Motorcycle Jacket ($1,495) to an art event in Moscow recently. As usual, she kept herself more refined, less grungy. Lindsay, on the other hand, wore her Wang jacket in her signature disheveled manner. Completely different flavors, who wore it better?

Jessica's Motorcycle Jacket

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Oct 2006 14:13:04 -0700

Bomber-style jackets are super hot for Fall 2006, and I love this luxurious black satin one that the black-clothes-obsessed Jessica Simpson was wearing on her way to the Today Show yesterday. Admittedly, Jessica is looking a little bit scary these days, but she's just as fashion-forward as always.

Like Jess's motorcycle-tinged look? Turns out, her coat is actually the Dior Destiny Jacket with Rabbit Fur, which you can buy here. This style is a great girly take on the traditional bomber-style motorcycle jacket, with a detachable rabbit fur collar, a wide waistband, and all sorts of zippers, buttons, and flaps. It costs a cool $1,990.
