The Sammy Miller

leave a comment »

When Sir Richard Branson made his inaugural tourist space flight in 2010, he wore a specially-made Belstaff jacket. Founded in England in 1924, Belstaff is famed for high-performance jackets, worn by motorcyclists and pilots. One of my favorites is Belstaff’s “Sammy Miller” biker jacket, named after the 1950s motorcycle legend. At $1085, the price tag is painful, but this is one of those jackets you will wear until death do you part, most likely diving out of an airplane or in a fiery motorcycle crash. Available on mrporter.com.

Glittery Goddess Gown

If you like that Badgley Mischka caftan I posted earlier this week, but frowned at the $495 price tag, perhaps you will be interested in this vintage 1970s batwing gown trimmed with sparkly sequins and draped like a goddess. Current bid on eBay is $9.99. Click on the image below to see the actual listing.
