If you’re looking for tips on how to stay cool this summer, look no further than Taylor Momsen’s onstage ensemble from this weekend’s Download Festival. The Pretty Reckless frontwoman opted for a torn and sleeveless t-shirt and duct tape in lieu of a bra (allowing for ample circulation) for her performance at Donington Park in Leicestershire. We’re not sure we have the rocker style to pull off this look (or the pain threshold to withstand removing the, ahem, “boob tape”), but if this July turns out to be another scorcher we might just have to reconsider.

Before Taylor Momsen’s rockin’ acoustic performance at Hollywood’s Hard Rock Cafe, we caught up with the Pretty Reckless frontwoman at the Beverly Hilton Hotel for a little photo shoot. Theoften pantsless songbird surprised us by wearing baggy jeans, a simple top and Doc Marten boots for our poolside photo session. It’s easy to forget the singer’s Gossip Girl roots when she does the 90s grunge look oh so well. Check out our Beverly Hills pool side pictorial with Taylor.
