Flannel Tied Around Your Waist—The Ultimate Grunge Accessory

To me, nothing quite says grunge like a flannel tied around your waist. It truly is the ultimate grunge accessory! Back in the day as kids we’d tie anything and everything around our waists. As we got older, it kind of became uncool to tie anything around your waist (unless you absolutely had to). Maybe it’s just me, but I definitely feel like this look has definitely made a comeback. Could it be because most Y2K things are trending? I have no doubt this is the case!

I opted for more Y2K vibes with this cute coral crop top and my signature high-waisted ripped denim. Otherwise a pretty basic outfit, the flannel tied around my waist gives this look dimension and really nails home the outfit vibes we’re going for–grunge. It’s also no surprise that what’s rounding out the outfit are my combat boots.

If you’re looking for a simple yet effective grunge girl fit, this is the one! Everyone’s got something like this in their closet, so it makes it so accessible. So next time you’re unsure of what to wear or how to bring a little life to a basic outfit, try adding a flannel or any type of long-sleeve button down! You’d be surprised by what adding one accessory can do to an outfit.
