Biker jacket: ACNE (consignment find) Try this, this or this.  Jeans: Saved from Michael’s chuck pile. Polo: Gap. Moccasins: Minnetonka. Shades: Random NY street vendor (similars herehere)
Got reeeeally lucky when I clocked this ACNE jacket in a consignment shop a few days ago (already instagramed) It’s absolutely brilliant and bang on time for spring.  This online isn’t too bad either (looks like a burgundy trim).
Loved for over a year and basically wrote off any chances of seeing it anywhere again – read: Gave up with eBay.
That’s the thing with New York, you have no bloody idea what you’re going to find and when.
ps. Notice the nails? Got them done at a recent press party for Brits in New York. A couple of pictures from the event are on my twitter.  Why did it take me this long to get union jacks on my nails?  I tell you – it won’t be the last!

    You used to search for coupons and clip them out
    with a pair of scissors and clipping was tiresome job back then.
