Hot hoodie for less!

Remember a few months ago, I did that post on the hot design duo Mike & Chris Bailey? Ever since then, I have been looking around for that cute 3/4 sleeve, bubble-hoodie...on ebay, hoping to get it for a fraction of the price. I couldn't get my mind off the darn thing and to top it all off, every freakin' magazine had celebs like Rachel Bilson, wearing the heck out of it!

Fast forward a few months later....Today while shopping at Target, I see this cinched-waist hoodie (Below). I was instantly reminded of the Mike & Chris Bailey hoodie! I know it isn't identical, but it's similar and it looks great. I was sad to see that most of them were snatched up, only XL sizes were left. I was lucky enough to find a Medium hidden in the sale rack. I tried it on immediately, but that was too big! It's definitely super-cute and it could be tolerable in the summer heat, since it's pretty light-weight. I will be buying it in SMALL, who could pass up that price, right?


Mike & Chris hoodie, price: $308.




Mossimo hoodie, price: $19.99 at Target.

I have a feeling you're going to see a lot more in this style come fall. These types of jackets were all over the place at the Magic show in LV. We have a sweater in our fall line that is almost the exact shape of this! (it's in a boucle knit) I'll send you a pic...
