This project does not imply that NAACP_LDF endorses the Strategist or eBay.
This month, eBay, in partnership with the Strategist, went back to some of our favorite celebrity shoppers — including Nicky Hilton — to ask them about things that they can live without and would be willing to sell at auction for charity. All proceeds will go to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund (eBay is receiving and donating all proceeds and matching every dollar the auction earns).

Victoria Beckham inspired me to buy this Marc Jacobs leather motorcycle jacket. In 2011, I saw a photo of her wearing a green version of it in a magazine, and thought, Oh my God, I need it! I’ve always admired her style, and I just thought the jacket was the coolest — I immediately fell in love. So I went to the Marc Jacobs store on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles, and they had it in maroon in my size. I bought it right then and there. I think leather jackets are the best investment pieces.
I definitely wore the jacket a lot — while running around during my L.A. days; quite a bit in London; and to Paris Fashion Week. My sister, Paris, has borrowed it, too. She loves anything pink, and I would say its color falls within the pink family. The color, by the way, is unusual — it makes a loud statement and has a rock-and-roll vibe. I liked to wear it with a skinny jean, simple top, motorcycle or ankle boots, or even a black dress and tights and ankle booties. It gives such a great pop to any outfit.
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
