The Look for Less: Alexander Wang Leather Moto Vest



Alexander Wang at ShopStyle


Alexander Wang's highly-coveted black leather moto vest, as seen on the S/S 2009 runway, costs a whopping $1,036 on sale at Satine.





To get the look for yourself this fall, try this faux leather moto vest by Xhilaration, just $19.99 at Target.

For more budget-friendly options, including some non-leather looks, browse my hand-picked options below. I want the one from Express but must wait for a sale…

Mudd for Kohls Fall Clothing & Accessories


When I shop at Kohls, I usually hone in on the Simply Vera Vera Wang and ELLE collections, but I received some images from the Mudd Fall Lookbook which I thought I'd share in case there are some Mudd fans out there. This juniors label is a great source for fall plaid, denim, and tees at really low prices. If you're a fan of pricier labels such as Lucky Brand (sold at Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's and Macy's) which has a similar boho, peace-signs-and-seed-beads aesthetic, you might want to check out Mudd for some affordable looks-for-less, too, especially their jewelry, scarves and other graphic tees. Any thoughts on Mudd?
