GRUNGE CONTINUED

I AM CURRENTLY OBSESSED WITH THE 90'S GRUNGE STYLE

THE OVER ALL LOOK IS SO EFFORTLESS

 AN ANDROGYNOUS STYLE IN ITS FINEST FORM

I HAVE CREATED AN OUTFIT HERE FROM CURRENT FINDS OFF BOTH THE 'URBAN OUTFITTERS' AND 'TOPSHOP' WEBSITES

I USUALLY WEAR OUTFITS SIMILAR TO THIS ON AN NIGHT OUT IN LONDON.

FOR A DAY TIME LOOK I WOULD SWAP THE FISHNETS AND LEATHER MINI, FOR A PAIR OF VINTAGE ROLLED UP ACID WASH LEVIS AND DM'S. NO MATTER WHAT I ALWAYS OVERLOAD WITH ACCESSORIES; LAYERED NECKLACES AND BULKY RINGS.

A GREAT PAIR OF BLACK HEELED BOOTS, AND A WHITE BAGGY VEST ARE WARDROBE ESSENTIALS ALL YEAR THROUGH

.ERIN WASSON AND MARY-KATE HAVE PERFECTED THE 90'S GRUNGE LOOK.

CHECK OUT THE 2009 ELLE SHOOT ERIN WASSON STYLED

OH 90'S OH!

ITS INEVITABLE THAT FASHION TRENDS WILL KEEP BEING RECYCLED.

SWEET DELICATE FLORALS OF THE 50'S RAMMED DOWN OUR THROATS ALL YEAR THROUGH.

NEONS OF THE 80'S REGURGITATED AND SPAT OUT EVERY SUMMER IN THE HIGH STREET STORES.

THAT 60's-70's BOHO VIBE THAT POSSESSES THE BODY OF EVERY FEMALE, AT EVERY FESTIVAL, LEAVING YOU WITH SEVERE DE JA VU.

WHAT ABOUT THEW 90'S?

 THE 'GRUNGE/VALLEY GIRL' TREND OF THE 90'S SHOULD BE TAKING MAIN STAGE.

BOTH STYLES ARE COMPLETELY OPPOSITE BUT ARE EQUALLY OBSESSIONAL.

GRUNGE GIRL

MUSIC SUCH AS 'NIRVANA', 'SONIC YOUTH' AND 'SOUNDGARDEN' THAT INSPIRED THAT 'GRUNGE TREND'

.RIPPED DENIM .FADED BAND TEES . LEATHER.  STUDS. MUTED DEEP TONES. CUT OFF SHORTS. ACID WASH. BAGGY. PLAID SHIRTS. DISHEVELED & UNKEMPT HAIR.

VALLEY GIRL

FILMS LIKE 'CLUELESS' FULL OF EVERY YOUNG GIRLS IDOL; 'THE VALLEY GIRL' 

BABY DOLL. COLOURFUL. HIGH WAISTED JEANS. MATCHING SEPERATES. HAIRBANDS. PLATFORMS. KNEE HIGH SOCKS. TWEED. COLLARS. MINI SKIRTS. GROOMED HAIR.

 THE HIGHSTREET STORES ALWAYS HAVE A FEW PIECES FROM THESE TRENDS, BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND SIFTING THROUGH VINTAGE/THRIFTS STORES FOR AUTHENTIC RETRO GARMENTS. 

START WITH ONE STATEMENT PIECE AND BUILD ONTO THAT.

WHEN IT COMES TO STYLING OR SHOPPING, TAKE INSPIRATION FROM TRENDS, REPLICATING THEM CAN LOOK LIKE YOU HAVE OVER STYLED YOURSELF OR YOU'VE TRIED TOO HARD.
