Moto Jacket
The Claim: Quickly become a wardrobe must-have, the moto jacket is re-imagined in faux leather.
My Result: H&M sizes run small and this is no exception. I bought this for a wedding this weekend and while I have no time to return it for a larger size, the one I got (thankfully) just fits...except that I can't close it…but I live in Los Angeles and when was the last time I wore a jacket let alone closed one?
The Verdict: A leather jacket, well, faux leather jacket at a fraction of the cost? No question, no doubt it's worth the purchase price. And full disclosure, I took advantage of a labor day sale and got this for $35. Just order a size up if you want to be able to close this bad boy.
To Buy: H&M, $60

Skinny Cords
The Claim: "Our skinniest silhouette in soft corduroy because you can't always wear jeans."
My Result: It's true. You can't always wear jeans although I do try. Upon pulling these on, however, my first thought was, "This is closest I will ever feel like Kate Middleton."
The Verdict: Who doesn't want to feel like a queen? Go as fast as you can to your nearest computer or J. Crew store to purchase these — that is if you want to be royal.
To Buy: J. Crew, $98

Slip-On Sneakers
The Claim: Ridiculously cool slip-on sneakers that are a grown-up version of your high school skate shoes.
My Result: It's as if my secret wish list of slip-on sneakers was finally answered: Cool enough to wear to with anything, comfortable enough to wear all day and night and they are office appropriate without looking like a slob.
The Verdict: Multiple pairs of these will be purchased as back-ups.
To Buy: Anthropologie, $150
Lemon Body Oil
The Claim: Firm and detoxify skin while reducing the appearance of cellulite with this fortifying body oil.
My Result: Love applying this after the shower regardless of the claims. The lemon scent is really intense but in that I just rolled around a lemon grove romantic type way.
His Response: Did you just clean the bathroom with lemon pledge?
The Verdict: Still totally worth buying. And I was always a fan of lemon pledge...
To Buy: Amazon, $30
