Punk Out Floral! ;)

A new set is in and i decided to create one that had a mix and match of two different themes: Floral and Biker Chic! I took beautiful floral dresses and decided to add gorgeous leather jackets to them, creating a biker babe edge to the outfits. I also included studded pump heels to my outfits to give them more of a feminine appeal then i topped them off with nice studded statement bangles.
