What can I say, I am so deliriously crazy over R13 jeans! Made in Italy, R13 is a new brand that has entered the denim market in avant-garde silhouettes with a vintage feel, yet completely fresh and original. Sure to be a huge hit, R13 offers five hot silhouettes of the season; harem, slouchy, crossover, legging and skinny. In addition, fall’s must-have item, the motorcycle jacket.
Left:
Distressed Leather Jacket, $1599. Cropped motorcycle jacket in heavily distressed, textured leather with snap closures and belted hem.
R13 Legging Jeans, $344. Slim fit jeans in distressed stretch denim with mended tares.




From Left to Right:
R13 Harem Jeans, $288
The baggy shape was inspired from the Sarrouel pants from Islam. This silhouette is a cropped, harem-style jean in heavily distressed denim. Easy to wear all year round, with boots, sneakers or heels.
R13 Slouch Skinny, $288
For a more feminine take on the boyfriend jean, but a bit more tapered. This is a heavily distressed skinny jean with a relaxed, slouchy fit.
R13 Crossover Jeans, $322
This seasons trend is the overlapped waistband with a jodhpur style silhouette. Slim relaxed fit jeans in lightweight black denim with overlapped waistband.
R13 Legging Jeans, $334
When skinny isn’t skinny enough the legging jeans come to the rescue. This is a slim fit jean in distressed stretch denim with mended tares.

Lately, I have been in search of a great denim jacket. Even though I love my traditional denim jacket by Earl that I’ve have for years now, I’ve been wanting something more current and edgy. Then, I spotted Charley 5.0′s zipper motorcycle jacket at Scoop. Looks great and fits like a glove! One celebrity gal who loves Charley as well is Whitney Port. Check out Charley 5.0′s website to see the complete collection of edgy and fun takes on denim. I also love their short jumpsuit and denim leggings.

If you haven’t checked out the recently opened Topshop in Soho, what better excuse than to go purchase their bleach denim jacket, among the many other fantastic apparel, shoes and accessories offered!

Venture downtown to Pixie Market, a little gem of a store on the Lower East Side. I love Feature’s denim button front dress and Surface to Air denim Royce dress. For accessories, I adore Chapeau Claudette’s mesh tulle mini hats and mini peach top hat, so fun! Santi makes deliciously colorful bags. Add a little pop to an outfit with Santi’s sequin stripe bag or orange striped leather bag.
