SHOE ENVY: Marc by Marc Jacobs Studded Platform Booties

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

A girl walks into a bar, jacket leather and boots studded, her motorcycle still dusty from the ride. Okay, so maybe I only wish I was the girl on the bike, but with these Marc by Marc Jacobs Studded Platform Booties, I can at least pretend. Gold tone studs and a matching logo printed at the heel stand on a reasonable 3.5-inch rubber sole. If you’re looking for a leather boot embodying the perfect mixture of sexy and badass, you’ve met your match.

TRENDSPARK: Bikergirl

Two worlds collide as this trend sweeps the city.  Girly girls are showing their edges with leather jackets, thick chains, and motorcycle boots. I hate to make a Gossip Girl reference, but think Blair Waldorf meets Taylor Momsen (no, not Jenny Humphrey, Taylor Momsen, the not-trying-as-hard-to-be-edgy-version).  I love this look, but would be interested to see edgy girls trying to be more girly…would that have the same effect?
