The Little Black Leather Dress!

I always love spotting different fashion trends in move costumes and did just that after seeing The Dark Knight Rises. When I wasn't swooning over the man candy and gasping from the action scenes (and you know paying attention to the plot), I found myself admiring Anne Hathaway's total HBIC persona. As someone who also appreciates the nicer things in life like pearls and diamonds, I wasn't shocked that I loved Hathaway's Catwoman. In fact, the performance made me wish Hollywood showed off more powerful stiletto fighting women. Which leads me to my new obsession, the LBLD- aka the Little Black Leather Dress! The LBD is every women's favorite and easy way to look effortlessly flawless. With the addition of a little leather, the dress has a vampy take on the traditional outfit choice. And with fall right around the corner, the sleek attire is perfect to throw on for a night out for cocktails!

Ladies who sport the leather:

Angelina Jolie

A decade/10 kids later and Angelina never really stopped rocking the sultry leather dress. As one of the  most action movie oriented actresses, it makes sense that Jolie loves the sharp appearance so much. In this Michael Kors dress from 2009, she looks ready to start her own fight scene right on the red carpet.

Emmanuelle Chriqui

At the 2010 ESPYS, Emmanuelle Chriqui opted for a more subtle touch of leather in this BCBG Max Azria dress. The short length along with the different fabrics(love the mix of sheer and leather) is a great way to play up the basic color. It's bold without coming off too strong!

Miley Cyrus

What a fab way to show up to your coming of age movie premiere with your hot new Australian boyfriend! Miley had a bit of her own Angelina moment but kept it young, and even more stylish, with the frilly shoulder pattern. 

Emma Stone

Last but certainly not least, Emma Stone took on the LBLD with a little design! The texture of this Versace dress is so gorg it honestly looks like artwork. Easily, my favorite leather black dress yet!
