STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Nouveau Grunge

Every Fashionista has been there: it’s the middle of the week, and you need something cute to wear to class. Not just cute, but something different than the everyday pair of jeans and a T-shirt. That’s where this Fashionista’s fab grunge style comes into play. This Fashionista is all about making a bold statement but in an effortless way. She looks put together, and yet putting together a cool look like this probably only took her a few minutes to do. Here’s how to get her look.

First off, she starts with a classic pair of light wash skinnies. Although these jeans are simple, they create a vintage element to the look. I imagine this Fashionista spending hours at a thrift store, until she found the perfect faded pair that probably belonged tp someone famous and super chic once upon a time. She throws on a flowy yet simple navy top over these. I love the cute cutout at the neckline! She keeps accessories minimal, opting for a simple pendant style necklace. Her coat keeps her warm, as well as showing off the layering trend. Lastly, the boots! The boots are everything. A classic pair of black combat boots add structure and grunge to the outfit. They tie everything in and show how a statement shoe can also be soft yet strong. This outfit is perfectly grungy, and this Fashionista is ready to take on any weather, including some April showers in Seattle. She heads off to class in style, looking as grunge and as sleek as can be.
