Grunge

How to rock the ongoing grunge trend without looking like you put no effort into your appearance? Chances are you'd rather look like an Olsen or Chloe Sevigny than a homeless person! Here's how.

The Style Classicist:

Pair one grunge-inspired item (like the ubiquitous flannel shirt) with more structured items like fitted skinny jeans and a dressy black heel. Add feminine details, like the locket above, to avoid grunge overload.

The Trend-Spotter:

Wear one extremely bold grunge piece (like acid-washed jeans) with simple, casual items for a laid-back look that isn't sloppy.

The Fashion Risk-Taker:

Piece together lacey, overtly feminine items with more distressed pieces. Torn shorts and an oversized flannel shirt look amazing with black tights and lacey open-toed ankle boots.
