The girl certainly has a thing for cool jackets. In Twilight, our heroine Bella (Kristen Stewart) made the BB Dakota cargo jacket THE must have fashion item, so much so that despite being a past season item it’s being re-released and is available to pre-order from Fred Flare here for $64 (shipping on the 15th August) and now she’s at it again with the Billabong Hannah jacket. As seen on Kristen as she’s been in Vancouver shooting Twilight sequel, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, this item has already made its way into one of our Bella looks (check it out here) and is fast becoming the gotta get fashion staple of 2009.

The jacket, previously available at a number of stores and online outlets has already sold out everywhere thanks to its Twilight connection. And so having once been available for around $60, it’s now doing the rounds on auction site eBay for up to $350. Its popularity has become the subject of conversation on celebrity gossip websites such as TMZ and the question is being raised – are these inflated prices taking advantage of loyal Twilight fans or is it simply fair game if they’re prepared to part with such cash?

The comments responding to the post on TMZ vary wildly between the two arguments. Opposed to the craze is Lamborghini who writes that “teen girls are stupid, they will buy anything to say they have something a celebrity does,” while in defence Twilightman contends: “If people want to dress like Bella – who are we to deny them, Imperial Stormtroopers?”
