GOOD GIRL GONE BAD

Posted May 11 2009 @ 06:09 PM

Leighton Meester was spotted flaunting her lighter locks and bikini bod in Santa Monica with pal Emmy Rossum yesterday, May 10, which is I'm sure quite a change from the cold New York weather that Leighton has grown accustomed to. In a black bikini (check out two similar suits from FrenchFifty Swimwear, the Maya Bay Bikini in Black and the St. Tropez Bikini in Black - which are both 50% off!) with a slouchy off-the-shoulder tee (check out P.G.D. Style's Babydoll Tee in Plum Kitty) and cut-off denim shorts (Tag Jeans' Lima Cut Off Short in Royal Vintage are almost identical to Leighton's), Leighton kept her look beachy-keen with a pair of black flip flops, oversized sunnies and a playful white, navy and turquoise fedora. What are your thoughts on Leighton's beach outfit and bod? I think she looks absolutely awesome! While LM has been in the recording studio quite a bit lately working on her debut album, she dropped a track last week with Cobra Starship titled "Good Girls Go Bad." How very Rihanna of her! The video for the song has already been shot on New York's Lower East Side, and is set to premiere next month. Have you heard the track yet? If not, check it out here. In addition to this fun, summery track, another of Leighton's songs, "Birthday," leaked a bit ago, and Leighton is talking about her thoughts on the song. She says, "I was working with really cool people on it. ... It's a really fun, great song. I am very happy with the reactions, and I love it, but there's a lot of other stuff that I'm really happy with that is not being leaked at the moment but will come out later on this year that I'm really stoked about." Meester continues, "I've been in L.A. for about a month now just working pretty steadily in the studio, and then last year, I was doing the same thing around this time. And before that, I was in my apartment, so it's a really professional big deal for me making real music." What do you think - do you buy LM as a songstress?
