christian dior's ruffled leather is so cute. first time I see leather in ruffles. I can't wear leather it usually makes my curves look boxy. But these dresses are beautiful.

I was thinking about getting one of those... Jenni Kayne one is really cute..Love the simplicity of it!
Kisses my lovely :)

I LOVE this look, especially the ones that look like trash bags! My favorite would probably have to be Sharon Wauchob.

Chere CC,

All my buttons correctly pushed by the leather theme today. The Dsquared2 for pure kink, yes, but hats off to Bess Sioux and Jenni Kayne for fresh approaches to an old favorite...
