Naturally we know right away that we had to participate in this trend, so we pulled together some affordable items that will help you get that exposed zipper look.

We’ve already purchased the Exposed Zipper Top (features a zipper down the back), $18.99 and  Zippered Leggings, $16.99, both from Charlotte Russe, although we definitely wouldn’t wear the two items together. picture-3We were thrilled to find zippered leggings that didn’t cost $100, likes the coveted LNA brand ones, and the slight batwing sleeves, buckle-waist, and longer tunic length give the exposed zipper top a very of-the-moment aesthetic.  Next up we found the Kensie Double-Knit Dress at Dillard’s for $49 (was $98), which most certainly channels mod-chic and also has a zipper down the back. Last of all, we foudn the splurge item — the  Marc by Marc Jacobs Runway Exposed Zipper Dress, on sale for $199 (was $328) at eLUXURY.com. The cool blue color and tiered fabric gives a pulled-together, ladylike look, then turn around and go a little grunge with the exposed zipper surprise.
