Lace, floral prints, and flower crowns are some of my favorite spring trends! They're everywhere in stores and websites in a plethora of colors and fashions. With such delicate fabrics, colors, and fashions, it can be a challenge to be on trend while still maintaining my edge. My affinity for dark clothing, pyramid studs, spikes, and anything that screams KICK ASS is something that I am not willing to let go regardless of what season trends I rock.
Luckily I don't have too. I simply have to marry the frilly, softness of spring with my unwavering love for looks on the "dark side".
1. CROTCHET & LACE DOESN'T ONLY COME IN WHITE OR BEIGE! Do not think for one second that the more popular white and beige pieces featured in look books everywhere are your only options for this or any Spring season. There are plenty of crotchet and lace pieces out there in the darker edgy colors that you love. Rustic, silver jewelry with pops of pastel colors are edgy, but they still hint to the vibe of spring. Here's a look I put together for inspiration. As promised the entire look is under $100.
Lace Dolman Top - Torrid - $30.50
Classic Wash Skinny Jeans - Forever 21 - $22.80
American Eagle High Wedge Slings - Payless - $19.99
Worldly Girl Ring Set - Forever 21 - $3.80
Outwest Pendant Necklace - Forever 21 - $12.80
Exotic Disc Earrings - Forever 21 - $4.80
2. FLOWERS CAN BE EDGY TOO! Deep purples and even black flower headbands definitely read edgy. I personally love the look of dark flowers and even decaying flowers, but not everyone is into that. A simple tweak of adorning a flower headband with studs or spikes would give it the edge you're looking for. If you're not the crafty type, you can check out this AMAZING Etsy shop called Voxpopulijewelry!
Have no fear naturalistas! We can rock floral crowns as awesome and edgy as the ones above!
3. FLORAL PRINTS : Flowers aren't necessarily what comes to mind when I think "edgy". However, like with floral crowns, it is possible to stay true to your edgy style with floral prints. Try looking for floral print clothing with dark backgrounds or undertones. Pair up floral print bottoms with studded and/or dark tops that are more you! The looks below range from $75.59 - $86.09 (depending on which top you pick).
Heart of the Matter Peplum Top - Fashion to Figure - $28.00
Studded Skull Crossover Back Tank - Torrid - $38.50
Bob Marley Tee - Torrid - $34.50
Floral Fields Leggings - Forever 21 - $14.80
Arrow Fringe Necklace - Forever 21 - $12.80
Montego Bay Club's Tubular Flat Sling - Payless - $19.99
With every season, new trends come. Just remember that it's always possible to rock them all while still looking like you.
