While I was home nursing a cold, it looks like I missed some great Fall fashion at Bryant Park.  Charlotte Ronson (sister of DJ and Lindsay Lohan paramour Samantha Ronson) debuted her collection on Friday afternoon, and I’m feeling the Pat Benatar-esque rocker girl look (top photo) — the black, embellished cut-out top, black leather pants, and fly booties.
