I love that picture of Rachel.. she look perfect!^^ Rachel looks great in that outfit. Usually I am turned off by her style, but with her hair off her shoulders and pushed back with a headband, she looks sleeker while still retaining her free-spirited Boho look. I would never wear a leather jacket myself, but I love how it contrasts with her chiffon dress. This is probably one of my fave pics of her.

Getting that 'O.C.' look
By Bruce R. Miller Journal staff writer
Wear last season's clothes?
That's not the way they do things on "The O.C."
In the fourth season, you'll see some new looks -- particularly on Rachel Bilson's Summer, who's headed to Brown University -- and some new sensibilities.
"Because they're off to college, they're going to be more mature and adult," says costume designer Robin West. "Their clothes will reflect where they are in life."
Summer, for example, is going to espouse causes -- and her style sense will reflect that.
"She's going to be eco girl," West says. "She's going to wear T-shirts with slogans -- 'More Trees, Less Bush,' or a picture of Ann Coulter with a slash through it."
Adam Brody's Seth -- who will work at a comic book store -- will continue to be into retro looks, this time from the '80s. He'll sport vintage T-shirts: 'Let's Get Physical,' 'Pray for me. My wife is Irish'"; and he'll wear sweaters and slim-fitting pants.
Willa Holland (Kaitlin) will get to step out with true '80s style --overalls, "Flashdance" looks and leggings. And, like Ryan (Benjamin McKenzie), the adults will be sporting darker colors, largely because they're mourning the death of Marissa (Mischa Barton).
Because he's back in the public defender's office, Peter Gallagher's Sandy won't be as flashy as he once was. "He'll still wear Hugo Boss suits," West says. "But they won't be as shiny."
Melinda Clarke's Julie "will still be a saucy mom" and Kelly Rowan's Kirsten "will be classy and elegant."
Best of all? They'll all be ahead of the curve, setting trends that fans of the show probably won't embrace for another six months.
West says she gets the jump on fashion (and helps set trends) by scouring stores on Los Angeles' Melrose Avenue, attending fashion shows and listening to pitches from designers, eager to get their clothes on screen.
"Most of the companies send stuff," West says. "They'll send the actors clothes, too."
The reason: If a viewer likes a dress Bilson wears, she may be inclined to look for it at a local store.
If there's a big event on the series, West and her staff usually know weeks in advance. They create original looks for the balls, proms and fundraisers. But, most weeks, "we go shopping."
That means trips to stores like Macy's or Nordstroms to find looks that work.
West found a vintage T-shirt shop in Los Angeles and stocked up on items for Brody. She discovered jewelry at several boutiques and routinely watches what teen-agers and college students wear when they're out on dates.
Frequently, she'll take something she finds at a store and gives it a new spin. Cutting a T-shirt, for example, could produce a different look.
Jeans are probably the only apparel she can recycle from week to week. "Lots of slim jeans are hot right now." Companies like Raven, Earnest, Stitch and J Brand are popular. (None of the women, by the way, has a waist larger than 27 inches.)
Women's blouses and dresses have come from Jenny Han, Nanette Lepore, Ella Moss and Daryl K.
Bono's line Edun and Marc Jacobs' clothes are also seen.
Chris Brown, a hip hop musician who has been added to the cast "wears interesting preppy stuff -- LaCoste, for example -- and he's bringing a very 'fashiony' sense to the show. He's not a wacky dresser."
The women, too, are pretty amenable to West's choices. "They don't look at labels. They just want things that look good on them." Sometimes, colors don't register well and an item may be nixed. "Some light yellows, for example, make people look too pale. Sometimes pinks can wash out."
Other times, a storyline may dictate how appropriate an outfit may be. "It's a collaborative process," West says.
During the fitting process, West may discover that certain pieces "miss the boat, season-wise." She'll put them in the character's closet (each has racks of clothing) and make a note that it's still viable. Because she catalogs each outfit, she's able to determine when each piece was used.
"The O.C.," as a result, becomes a time capsule of fashion at beginning of the century. "Someday, you'll be able to look back and say, 'That's what they were buying in 2006,'" West says.
She doesn't mind that the looks are trendy. That's part of "The O.C.'s" charm.
To help fans create their own "O.C." looks, a website (www.ocinsider.com) offers suggestions. "You don't have to spend a lot of money to duplicate the looks," West says. "Kids are clever buyers."
They may not have the same pair of $200 jeans, but those fans can find ones for a fraction of the price that have the same look. Much of "The O.C.'s" jewelry, she says, comes from up-and-coming designers. Fans in other parts of the country can be equally as experimental by supporting local designers in their home towns.
"Look for interesting pieces," West says.
Everything '80s -- except shoulder pads -- is hot, she adds. "I still have these black and red Elvis leggings that I wore in the '80s and they're back in style. When you revive a look, you've got to remember that it won't be exactly the same as it was. You may add something to it or do it in a slightly less obvious way."
A "Flashdance," sweatshirt, for example, may not be topped with a wild hairdo. The leggings could still be there, but maybe they're complemented by a fun pair of shoes.
For West, who has credits with shows like "The Gilmore Girls," "The O.C." is a dream job. "It's less intense and everybody is so supportive."
While she loved costuming Mischa Barton ("she was fun to dress and she looked great in everything"), West is thrilled to flex her design muscles with new bad girl Willa Holland. "She's really slim and cute, too."
Challenging? "Black tie events are always interesting. But I've got an episode coming up where we've got many, many aliens."
And, of course, those aliens can't be your run-of-the-mill E.T. types.
They're West Coast aliens and they've got to be fashionable.
This is, after all, "The O.C."
