The North Face has always been one of my favorite brands for outdoor clothing, especially in the cold. I remember one of my first ski outfits was a purple North Face jacket and North Face black pants, and I was obsessed! Their pieces are comfortable yet durable, and of course, very stylish. I mean, this 1996 Nupste jacket is everything, and I am patiently waiting for it to come back in stock in purple! Anyways, I have always thought of the brand as strictly for outdoor activities like skiing or hiking, but friends, let me just tell you, my eyes have been opened to the world of North Face fashion. I have found the crown jewels of their fashionable pieces: The North Face has collaborated with two of my favorite brands in the world: Liberty London and Gucci.

         These two brands, especially the latter, are definitely not in my budget to just buy an item or two on a whim. The North Face, on the other hand, is much more affordable (definitely not Target, but way better than full price Gucci!) without compromising quality. This is why I love these two collaborations; they are making the unattainable attainable. Plus, not only will these items not break the bank like a normal Liberty or Gucci item, but the pieces from these two collabs are so COOL! The North Face adds a retro, vintage feel to the glamorous prints and designs of Liberty and Gucci. Don’t believe me? See for yourself down below.

         The North Face x Liberty London collection is already live! I just purchased the white fleece from this collaboration (shown down below), and I have worn it a ton. You can check out my favorite pieces from this capsule down below. The prices for this collab are less expensive on The North Face site than the Liberty site for some reason, so I tried to link as much from North Face as I could. However, Liberty has a bit more in stock on their site. 

        The North Face x Gucci capsule on the other hand drops online on January 22. However, if you are in Downtown Los Angeles, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, San Francisco, or Chicago, you can go visit a Gucci Pin to shop The North Face x Gucci capsule in person! These pins opened January 6 and will be open until February 14. Check out the Gucci site if you are in another country to see when and where your nearest Gucci Pin opens. 

These Pins are essentially pop-up shops, and they double as a place to catch Pokémon. I am not a gamer, so I don’t really know what this means, but if you are a fashionista and Pokémon expert, this is the place to be! Nonetheless, these pins are so cool. Enough about the Gucci Pins though, let’s talk about the actual collection itself! I am obsessed with all of it! Here are some sneak peaks of what’s dropping online on the 22nd and is already available in stores. This is just the tip of the iceberg!

I am really hoping to get my hands on these bad boys: 

I hope you guys enjoyed this post, and if you didn’t know about these The North Face collaborations before, now you know! Set your calendars for January 22, and be sure to also get your North Face x Liberty pieces today before they go out of stock for good!
