Grey is the new black...purple is the new black...navy is the new black...I'm waiting for the moment that someone says pink is the new black. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that black is the new black, and these looks prove nothing beats it, especially when you add a little leather.
This is such a cute top from Alice + Olivia. The capped sleeves give it a great edge and it looks fantastic with jeans, skirts or pants.
Leggings are a continuing trend this year. These ones have latex panels that add a little something extra. I have to admit I'm a big fan of leggings and hope the trend will stay strong because it's not very often that something so comfortable is sexy as well ;)
To add to this rocker vibe is a pair of platforms that will make you tower over everyone. I like the buckle details. Skinny jeans or tights would be a perfect match for these booties.
I couldn't end the post without a couple of dresses. If your fashion icon is Posh Spice then the Rock & Republic mini is perfect. Sheer overlay and leather make for an interesting neckline. The LifewithBird dress is on the opposite end of the spectrum. It's still short, but has a blousy top and full skirt. If you want to look cute but not like you're trying too hard this dress is perfect. It'd go great with a pair of funky shoes and a clutch or a bag on a long chain.
