Someone needs to buy me this ’60s printed leather and denim jacket by Cavalli. $645 at Swank Vintage Speaking of jackets, Under the Stares is yet another blogger who is yearning for a marching band/military-type jacket. For her, my fellow Adam Ant fan, If You’re Into It, found this Converse by John Varvatos jacket. $795…

Seen on Phoebe
The psychedelic See by Chloe dress that I posted a while ago has been ruined for me by Dlisted’s adored Phoebe Price (aka “Chicken Cutlets”). Phoebe Price is to Dlisted what Coco is to me. That’s the answer to a question on next year’s SATs, by the way: “Phoebe Price is to Dlisted as _______…
Never Say Never
I’m amused that people are so aghast over Katie Holmes’ recent outings in rolled-up jeans. Embed from Getty Images We all said we would never wear skinny, bell-bottom, high-waisted or acid-washed jeans again, and those have all made a comeback. Basically, never is the next new thing.

A Sneak Peek

Shop Tops
These are all on sale at Browns. Marni doesn’t usually appeal to me, but I like this one. Jil Sander has the latex-y look going on. There’s an Elizabethan quality to this Isabela Capeto. This Missoni makes me think of armor for some reason. Can’t take my eyes off this Paul Smith. Balenciaga for animal…
One, Two, Buckle My … Boot?
I’ve always liked boots with buckles. Catching my eye lately: Size 36 Vivienne Westwood on eBay* $149 at Nine West *Don’t forget to snipe!
