My take on Grunge-Glam.


I absolutely adore the simplicity of this outfit! Black skinny jeans are an essential in any 'grunge' outfit, as black goes with more or less any colour, but I always seem to go back to matching with other shades of black.. The ripped effect adds extra dimension to a certain extent, but also makes this look more unique. If you're not a fan of the ripped look, that's cool too; regular skinnys will look just as good, depending on your own individual style, its all about what you like and whether you're comfortable and confident in wearing it.


You can't go wrong with any type of flannel shirt in my books. Whether you're slinging it over a plain white t-shirt for a simple laid-back look or whether you choose to have it buttoned up like in the picture above. As I say, you can't go wrong with them, I don't think that it matters what colour- especially if you're outfit is all black- of which the whole "Grunge Look" is a fan of!

Chunky shoes are a MUST for pulling off this look, I'm a fan of vagabonds because they're so sturdy and can be pulled off with a variety of outfits without looking 'over the top' or 'clumpy' as my mum would put it! Again, vagabonds aren't essential, but any kind of chunky boot/shoe would look fab with this look, alterations are what makes an individual's style unique.

I decide to put a Prada Saffiano bag (very realistic Charlotte, well done) with this look as personally, I'm not a fan of wearing rucksacks etc. In my opinion, this particular bag pulls the look together and makes it look a little more sophisticated- although I'm not against rucksacks by any means, I choose not to wear them as they just don't suit my body shape. I think shoulder bags like these look good with any body shape, but also help to emphasise how laid-back this outfit is.


Jeans- Quiz.
Flannel Shirt- Uniqlo.
Boots- Vagabond.
Bag- Prada.
