Must Have Now: H&M Lace Motorcycle Jacket

From the S/S 2010 collection for a mere $59.95. I’m stalking down every H&M in the city until I get one.

Must Have Now: Matthew Williamson Grommet Leather Vest

New York loooves standing in lines in the name of fashion. Remember the frenzy that ensued with the April opening of Topshop? That was hipster persistence at its best. I, however, stood in that for about 10 minutes before giving up. I’ll admit that I used to be one of those people willing to join a queue for sample sales and exclusive designer releases, until the thought dawned on me: Why am I standing in a three hour-long line to buy something that will not only be expensive but everyone and her cousin will be wearing? Otherwise meaning– I’m not that special. I’d rather just buy a one-of piece on eBay and call it a day. Plus, in my old age (25), I really just don’t have the stamina I had in my early 20′s. That said, the Matthew Williamson for H&M debut was definitely not enough to stir me out of my seat. But now seeing this vest, I’m kind of bummed. Because I want it. I want it bad.
