Creating a great outfit has more to do with your willingness to try new things and experiment than it does with style or fashion rules. This look is a great example of that! Looking at these two pieces individually, you might not think they’d go together. But see them side by side? You may think about trying them on together.
That’s exactly what I did with this cool navy blue bomber jacket and black tiered midi skirt. I bought both items the same day while thrifting, unaware of how they might be styled together. I love pairing feminine and chic items with more masculine and edgy pieces. The contrast of the two makes for fun and eclectic fits that show off your individual style!
This is the magic of a great grunge girl outfit, in my humble opinion. It lends itself to creativity and uniqueness. Hopefully, it inspires you to develop your own funky style. Maybe you’ll discover more of what you’re drawn toward and what makes an outfit great on your own terms. Lean on the trends and the rules but don’t be a slave to them—you get to decide how you want to feel and be perceived out in the world.
