Balmain's crystal embellished clothes are showing up all over starlets this springs. Aside from a
killer pair of heels, my favorite item from their Spring/Summer 2009 line is this
ornate military jacket. Unfortunately, all that jeweled detail rings up to over $11,400 at Net-a-Porter. Eek! When walking through Target today, I noticed a silver embroider military vest in their Go International line. It's not online, but imagine the Balmain as a vest and with thread instead of crystals. It was an affordable $34.99.

Sounds lovely! LOVE that Balmain jacket, but I would never spend that much on on piece of clothing.
