Alice + Olivia vs Forever21: Go Wild!

November 30, 2009

This Fall/Winter season it’s time to be wild! Leopard jacket or coat is a real season trend! You all know that Kate Moss, Lily Allen, Rihanna and others are big fans of leopard coats. But this time I’ll show some cropped jackets, which look even more sexier than coats, I think!

Look at Lily Donaldson and Anna Friel:

Burberry and Y-3 vs Topshop vs Asos vs Gap vs Miss Selfridge

Hey all of you! Sorry for not updating… hope you’ve missed me a lot :)
This time I’ll show you something really nice and useful! Here in Oslo winter has already started, and even there is no snow, the weather is really rainy and windy… I need a coat! and you?

I actually think about duffle hooded coat, it looks so warm and cosy! The famous are by Burberry in different colours, but expensive. In black and blue:
