dark academia x soft grunge outfit

This Look Is Giving Dark Academia Energy This Spring

Linen? Florals? In spring? Groundbreaking, I know! But hear me out. We’re not out here in pastels. We’re giving moody dark academia girl and it’s a whole vibe you’ll want to lean into!

Before I really leaned into my dark and moody colors, I would often just try to go with the trends and whatever season it was. Now, I take those in with a grain of salt. When you know what you’re confident and look good in, seasonal colors and trends don’t matter much.

This look is giving spring, but in a dark academia sort of way. The linen pants are grey and airy but still feel dark. I put on a black top with florals on it, giving it a dark floral vibe over a white button-down.

To really embrace spring, I took the ends of the button-down shirt and tied them together in front. This adds a cute element to the look especially if you’re going to be out and about!

This outfit wouldn’t be dark academia without black lacy socks and chunky Oxford shoes, either! It’s the type of energy a grunge girl needs this spring, so I hope this outfit inspires you to recreate your own dark academia spring look!
