One of the records I picked up in our most recent jaunt:

I honestly was not sure why I had ever heard of this band, but I knew I had. Plus, little a needs more exposure to lady rockers and at least their lead singer is a woman. It turns out they sing a really annoying song from the eighties that you may have heard called "I Know What Boys Like." However, there is more to them than just that song. Not a lot more, I'll admit-- but more. I am still undecided as to whether I like them on the whole, but they are kind of fun new wavey punky and this song (embedding was disabled on YouTube, so I guess you have to really want it to go all out and click) I personally find to be completely charming.
It reminds me of some more recent indie female vocalists that have the cutesy talky little girlish thing going on, but with a dash of Joan Jett attitude.
Oh, fun fact I just found out googling these guys. The album I have was never released on CD. My vinyl copy would be a collector's edition . . . except that it got released on itunes a couple years ago.

They also did a song called Christmas Wrapping which I'm sure you know. It's on the radio during Christmas.
