Leather Jackets - lifesavers!!!

Thank you to the 80's... to The Ramones and Prima Donna...to Metallica and a special thank you to PUNK!!!!

Without you there would be no ripped jeans, no tight pants, no spiked hair, no studs and spikes, but most important of all - there would be NO LEATHER JACKETS!!!

Yikes.

Imagine a world without leather jackets... Can you? I definitely can not!

It would be like taking all the spice out of the joy. No fun. No color. No casual. No rock. No 'cool'.
In fact, the word 'cool' probably wouldn't even exist if leather jackets did not exist.

You know there are those days sometimes where you are going out with your friends, nothing special, no biggy, but you still want to look casually glam? Like you barely tried to look fab, but you just did anyway? You already have your jeans and your shirt on and you stand in front of your warderobe trying to find the missing ingredient?
Then you fish for your leather jacket, put it on and - BOOM goes the dynamite!
Voila! Now you can leave the house...


Designers have found a way to re-interpret leather jackets in so many funky ways, it is impossible to take your pick. There are so many different versions of this rock-chic accessory (and yes, leather jackets are an accessory!) you have to find your fave.

But here are some of mine:

The ravishing Balmain jacket (at net-a-porter) ;

The most a-m-a-z-iiiiiiii-n-gggg studded leather jacket by Burberry Prorsum.
I think I'm in LOVE!!!!! Good Gracious....

Ufff. I think those two already knocked my head unconcious.

Sigh.
