What will happen to the show’s stars now that ‘Gossip Girl’ has finally said goodbye? While we can’t exactly predict their future, one thing we’re sure of is that Blake Lively will continue to make her mark in Hollywood.

How can she not when she has a string of campaigns on her resume and a decent number of movie roles? Oh, and lest we forget, she’s tall, blond, beautiful, and she has Ryan Reynolds for a husband. In other words, it looks like Blake is here to stay.

She was quite visible at last week’s Robin Hood Relief Fund concert benefit. For the event, Blake flaunted her toned legs in a sexy red studded leather mini dress and capped it off with mesh Christian Louboutin booties, plus her signature wavy locks.

It was a look that was hard to ignore. The dress was red… it was in leather… it was short… and well, blond and red simply painted such a stunning combination.

Blake’s dress is from Isabel Marant‘s Spring 2013 Collection. It isn’t available yet, but you can wait a few months to get it.

On a side note, if you love Blake’s red leather look but don’t want to overspend, here’s a really decent alternative.

It is made of genuine leather and has a classic, simple silhouette. We admit it’s not cheap, at $525, but it’s much better than spending $1000 or more on a dress.
