OOTD: Casual Biker Chic


Black and Lavender


For today's OOTD, I wanted to stay casual and comfy but still look pulled together. I opted for this pair of lavender shade skinny pants (from H&M) and styled it with a simple comfy black V cut 3/4 sleeve jersey top (from Express) that is super soft and thin and topped with a black faux leather cropped moto jacket (H&M) for an added edgy and tough look. Tied the whole look together with a gray/white animal print scarf (H&M) for extra warmth, pair of silver studded flats (from Mystique boutique) and black purse (from H&M).



How to Pull the Punk/Grunge Look:

At this year's MET Gala, the trend was punk/grunge which usually involves color black, spikes, studs, leather, flannel shirts, oversized chunky sweaters, heavily worn/ripped jeans and sneakers, thrift store dresses, mo-hawks, unkempt and unwashed hair, etc. To stay slightly in trend and not go into extremes (ripped jeans, mo hawks, unwashed hair), I've incorporated 3 key pieces here which are the black faux leather cropped moto jacket, the silver studded black flats and gold studded black bracelet to give my look a more tough biker chic look.
