Every grunge girl needs a dark and moody fit, am I right?? And a more glammed up version at that! If you lean into the vibes of artists like Lana del Rey , Arctic Monkeys, and The Marías, then this one’s for you.
Let’s talk about the elements of this outfit. Or rather, the main event aka the star of the show, which is this jacket worn as a top! One of the things that never gets old is giving clothes new life and another function.
For the ultimate moody fit, take one of your favorite outerwear pieces like I did—it can be a jacket or cardigan or blazer or coat—and add a belt to it. If you don’t have a belt that fits around your waist, this is your sign to get one because it can transform something like a jacket into the dark and moody aesthetic of your dreams!
The other elements of this outfit that are working are the knee-high stockings and Oxford shoe combo and the mini faux leather skort. Of course, it wouldn’t be a dark and moody outfit without dark and moody colors. Black is a given, but the addition of burgundy adds a slight pop of color for some dimension.
It’s a sexy, dark and moody look that will have you feeling and looking like the goddess you are!
