My wife got another shipment of BB Dakota clothing at her store on Tuesday. We had just sent out a mass e-mail for the weekend shopping. Of course by trying to drive a few hundred shoppers to our website we had to get the new clothing online. It often amazes me how Debra is able to pull off stuff like this. She was able to get a few models to show up the night before Thanksgiving for a photo shoot. I had the opportunity to have my first shoot with Carissa. She did a runway show two weeks ago for the boutique (at Burt Watson Pontiac Chevrolet) but I had not worked with her. For a first photoshoot she did a great job!

I over exposed the images a little and the backdrop was a bit wrinkled. I didn’t notice this until I got home and started to edit the images.

Do you still have any of the BB Dakota Leigh hoodies? I need at least a medium, and it really doesn’t matter what color it is at this point…

After some investigation here is some information. The Leigh Hoodie was an exclusive item for Nordstrom 2 years ago. Rumor has it that due to renewed popularity of this hoodie – there will be a very similar model available this fall from BB Dakota.

Ah, the abundance and popularity of people asking for the coat I’ve been after since I heard about it and the make, is tremendous!! I for one would love to have the BB Dakota Leigh Cargo Zip Hoody in Lake Blue, and I’m definitely not up for paying over $350 for one >.>
i need one in an XL, please please please ^-^

Hi David,
I tried contacting BB DAKOTA about information regarding the “Twilight” coat with no success. Do you have any details as to when and where the coat will be available, and if it will be the same “LEIGH CARGO HOODIE” in the same colors as the one that was available last year? You seem to be the “go to” guy right now…so I would love to talk to you about this.
Best to you, and I look forward to hearing from you soon…

While BB Dakota did not bring back the Leigh Cargo, someone posted that they are introducing a similiar jacket. They did, and it’s out right now! It’s called the Lottie Cargo. I cannot find one online, but they do have them at Nordstrom Rack. They are also selling on Ebay. They have it in a greyish-bluish color, VERY close to the one Bella wore. There are several on Ebay right now, and I have a feeling these will go wuick. The jacket is a little more light weight than the Leigh Cargo, so it will be perfect for Spring. Good Luck!

BB Dakota plans on introducing back the Leigh cargo jacket this fall, but under their junior brand, Jack by BB Dakota.
The jacket is aptly named, “Twilight”
March 24, 2009 at 10:02 pm
they are reissuing the jacket…the new name will have “twilight” in it…look for it soon

According to BB Dakota’s very helpful customer service rep, Jacquelyn (via e-mail as of 4/2/09):
We are making the jacket again. It will be called the Twilight jacket and here are a couple places you will be able to find it around the end of July.
“…we are making quite a few so hopefully we will be able to accommodate almost everyone. We are trying to make the jacket EXACTLY the same. We have pulled up all the old files and designs, and everything down to the buttons should be exactly the same. The lake blue color looks a bit darker in person than it is in the movie, but I think they did something with the lighting to make the jacket a bit lighter in the movie. But it will be the same exact jacket, we wanted to make sure we didn’t change anything!”

Where are the couple of places that we will be able to find the jacket, at the end of July?
