Rock n' Roll

Last time Genevieve appeared on my blog, she was glam rock. This time, she returns with more edge, more classic rock. Make absolutely no mistake -- this girl loves music, and you can see it right away in her style.

We walked through Los Feliz when we took these photos -- for those of you who aren't familiar with Los Angeles, it's a neighborhood wedged between hipsterville Silver Lake and Hollywood. Basically, a place that's an amalgamation of the two, combining so-trendy-it-hurts-your-teeth charm and mainstream razzle dazzle.

Of course, it's also the perfect backdrop for this particular going out on the town Gen outfit. Her closet is a treasure trove for every occasion, and for someone like me -- a homebody who prefers to melt on the couch, it's genuinely intriguing to have her put on something she would wear to a concert. That is, not the opera or philharmonic like in the last post.

She breaks it down for me.

First, that amazing jacket with shoulders that look like they can slay a man:

The jacket is Robert Rodriguez. The sleeves and waist are detachable by zipper which provides 4 different looks -  I thought it was just such a clever design!

Second, and of course, something to show her love and appreciation for heavy duty rock:

The tee is Brandy Melville.  Like everything else from that brand, this shirt is so soft and comfy, and I live in it. I am a Zeppelin fan and own a few shirts, but this by far is my favorite.

And to pull the whole look together:

And finally, the pants are Ralph Lauren in black leather. I think I wear them to pretty much every concert I go to because I just always feel so Rock & Roll when I put them on.

I pointed out that her wardrobe is full of sleek pieces with great silhouettes, and asked if that was something she applies to both more formal and casual looks:

Oh thanks! Yeah, I feel like more fitted and structured garments look better on my frame because I'm shorter, but I also like the aesthetic of structured pieces - they give a more polished look.

And lastly, the most important question of all... I asked if she appreciates lederhosen?

I love the lederhosen!

And I love saying lederhosen! It's definitely not something I can pull off myself, but who cares, because they look amazing on her!
