As I watched the fall 2009 ready-to-wear shows, certain trends stood out to me. One of the ones I instantly became obsessed with was leather motorcycle jackets. As I did some back-to-school shopping at the Nordstrom sale I absolutely had to check out a few of the black leather jackets and ended up taking home a Jolt leather jacket of my own. Still I am as obsessed as ever with this new trend. 
Balmain has always been one of my favorites for its fun, edgy shows. They created this awesome jacket that also has the signature piqued shoulders that were shown throughout the show.
Yves St. Laurent featured a lot of amazing leather jackets in their Fall '09 show, but I love how the studded collar on this one gives a little more edge.
Twenty8Twelve has a lot of fun, different and edgy pieces in their new fall collection, but this is one of my favorite pieces because it is so simple but classic.
Rag & Bone's latest pieces feature clean and classic silhouettes so it's no surprise their take on the motorcycle jacket is the same.
Truth & Pride did a lot of motorcycle style jacket and vests this fall but this is my favorite. I'm not sure if it's the cut, the gold hardware, or the unusual color but it's definitely chic.
For people who don't like the basic black motorcycle jackets there are ones like this one from Levi's at Urban Outfitters, just as cute, just a different color.

I love it as a cute staple to add some edge to a t-shirt and jeans or a dress with heels or boots. Either way it's definitely on my 'must have' list for fall.
