Hi friends!
Spending the week going to and from the office in your work clothes, do you often reach the end of the week craving a bit of a different look? I do, and I hope I’m not alone! My answer to that is to opt for an edgy outfit! Who doesn’t love putting on an outfit that makes them feel like a badass?? So, today I’m going to share three ways to create a look that we could all deem as edgy! Let’s edge it up, ladies!
OPT FOR DISTRESSED DENIM: Now, there are so many distressed denim options out there right now so let me clarify how to wear the two most popular options. I personally think I feel the edgiest in distressed denim jeans, such as the ones I’m wearing, that hug you tight and show off your curves. If you pair them with a cute, summery, loose-fitting top … you’ll certainly be gold! If you feel a little more comfortable in the baggier distressed denim jeans, like THESE, I think you can definitely edge those up but I would say wear more of a fitted, simple top [not tight], like THIS.
Here are some distressed denim options I love:
WEAR HEELS, NOT WEDGES: We LOVE to wear wedges as our heel of choice during the summer, don’t we? There’s absolutely nothing wrong with them. Girl, you sport those wedges! I will, too, but if we’re going for an edgier look, I would opt for a high heel. Don’t go so high that you feel uncomfortable or look like a walking baby T-Rex but, certainly go high enough to wear you feel confident! I’ve had these black sandals for the longest time because I’m comfortable wearing them and I like how the height of the heel elongates my short legs. They’re sold out now but THESE are the most similar that are currently available and have great reviews!
Here are a few pairs of heels that I own or have my eye on:
GO DARK: I personally think there is just something sexy about wearing the color black. Paired with the other two tips I’ve mentioned, it’s incorporation into your outfit really does add that extra edge. You don’t necessarily have to be wearing distressed black denim like I did, either! Get creative! You can wear distressed white denim with a black top & heels. You can wear distressed blue denim with a white top and black heels and sunnies! I personally love to add THIS clutch to my outfits because it adds a fun print into the mix!
Here are some black options for you to incorporate into your outfit:
I hope these tips were helpful for y’all! I know sometimes it’s a little scary to embrace a new style that you might not on a regular basis due to your job. Let me know if you have any questions about how to create an edgy outfit in the comments below!
