Watch this space for the new girl drummer and singer Florrie, whose Grace Kelly looks and chic sense of style have caught the attention of fashion editors and labels already. We love her fresh, clean style - plus she's beautiful too.

This weekend it was the legendary Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago, which was celebrating it’s 20th anniversary in style. We couldn’t help noticing that this year there were just as many girls rocking out onstage as there were boys – Taylor Momsen drew crowds performing with her band The Pretty Reckless, head-to-toe in sexy black leather and stockings, while elsewhere at the festival Ellie Goulding sang her heart out with an acoustic guitar and Lykke Li performed looking darkly mysterious in a leather cape-top.

I don’t know about you but I couldn’t be prouder that we have so many exciting, talented and fashion-forward female musicians at the moment. I’m coming over all riot grrl.

Above is a gallery of our favourite female musicians at the moment, who are combining a love of fashion and dressing up with a geniune talent and passion for creating music. Some are new faces, some are old favourites — naturally Florence Welch is there, for doing it Stevie Nicks-style in dramatic floaty gowns and ethereal vintage. Check it out and feel the power.

Runway to Reality: Balmain’s leather military jacket

By Andrea Thatcher on March 3rd, 2009

Balmain Leather Jacket.jpg

Balmain’s leather military jacket, $7,045, is hot. Hot in a way that could be styled vintage victorian or New York nightspot. Which is, of course, the very best kind of hot. Since it’s sold out on Net-a-Porter, I like to imagine this designer treasure is going to be worn and loved. This is the type of piece that people who can afford to are splurging on amidst the recession.

We’re always looking for a cool leather jacket. It’s a luxe basic that can be incorporated into any wardrobe, so this Aminaka Wilmont leather biker jacket 50% off for $997.50 in the Net-a-Porter sale will probably go quickly.

What will make it go quicker? An extra 20% off. This week just enter the code WINTERUSA through Sunday, January 18, to get the extra savings on all clearance items.

An asymmetric closure and notch collar keep the style modern, while the cropped silhouette is classic. To keep it really fashion forward, avoid a full-on biker look and wear your leather jacket with the unexpected – jeans are the easy way out.

We are all about the sparkly jackets for fall, and this Burberry Prorsum stamped leather jacket, $3,595, is truly special.

Stamped metal patches on leather give it it’s sequined look. The jacket features hip pockets and a button front.

Netaporter pairs it with a short black skirt, black patent tote and black heels but we can see it worn with everything.
