Anywho, I’ve been in love with the rock and roll/biker chic looks lately; I love the idea of a leather jacket and ankle booties – a strong yet sexy statement. Rock & Republic, king of this rocker girl look (as its name suggests) was simply stunning, perfecting a balance between leather and ruffles for a femininely tough aura. A leather dress would seem too daunting, yet when treated and decorated with a bow, it is anything but! Emmy Rossum seems to adore that look! This season R&R softened its usual look with dainty ruffles and satin fabrics, but adding edge with booties and denim. It was all about a juxtaposition of opposites: black and white, satin and leather, and naughty and nice. xoxo.http://lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/rock-republic-collage.jpg
