Motorcycle-inspired jackets will always remain a cult classic. They give off just the right amount of bad girl attitude without looking overly boyish. Since leather and suede versions won't do in the warm weather (think hot and sweaty), we're moving over to the light denim moto. This lightweight fabric and cooler hue will undoubtedly be a Spring staple. Wear it with a dress — a la Kate Bosworth Read more
Something about a motorcycle-style jacket in a luxurious knit fabric is so appealing. This T Tahari Genevieve Jacket ($118) is cool enough to wear to a bar, and sharp enough to sport at work. The asymmetrical zip and leather-trimmed pockets set the tone. The price isn't horrendous, but I found a similar-looking jacket for way less. See the look for less. Read more
Have you noticed the recent surge of stylish aviator jackets? Perhaps Amelia-inspired? This Candela Suede Motokera Jacket ($595, originally $850) is super cool — I adore the charcoal hue — but the price stings real bad. Moving on . . . To see the look for less, read more Read more
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. To see the look Read more

The costume: Catwoman Batman's sexy nemesis/paramour has been a sexy costume staple since the 1960s (when the lovely Eartha Kitt played her on TV), and she shows no signs of fading away. Plus, as long as you have an all-black outfit, cat ears, and a mask, she's a really easy character to put together. Do it this year, before everyone copies Anne Hathaway's Catwoman from next year's The Dark Read more
