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.

V Festival Special: Taylor Momsen takes to the stage

By admin on August 23rd, 2010

The disappointing August weather did nothing to dampen the spirits of V Festival revellers this weekend.

Thousands of wellie clad ladies (and of course gentleman) hit the two venues to watch a range of singers including the Prodigy, Diana Vickers and Florence and the Machines. Despite complaining that pop was ruining the “rock” image Taylor Momsen also decided to make an appearance at the festival performing with her band Pretty Reckless.

Shedding her pretty Gossip Girl image the singer went for her statement suspender set complete with a teeny tiny studded corset style frock for day 2 of the Festival at Weston Park in Staffordshire.

Did you watch Taylor perform and what do you think of her outfit?

And keep reading because today we’re dedicating ShinyStyle to all the celebrity looks at the festival.

Gallery: The changing style of Taylor Momsen

By Shiny writer on August 3rd, 2010

There’s not much to say about Taylor Momsen that hasn’t already been said. Don’t get us wrong, we’re big fans of the Gossip Girl, turned rocker, and it seems we’re not alone.

This year she’s received attention from both Madonna and John Galliano and her band, Pretty Reckless is going from strength. She’s also had a modelling debut with New Look and although it seems she’s an old starlet, she’s not.

She’s just accomplished alot in her young life and she’s also created a fashion statement amongst her fans- the stockings and suspenders.

However, she wasn’t always the rock chick, complete with statement thick eyeliner and bright red lipstick. And up until 2008, her clothes were sensible and girly to match her Gossip Girl character Jenny Humphrey. We have a look at her changing faces.
