I’ve always been a bit on the edgier side when it comes to my fashion choices. As an emo middle schooler, I grew to love some of the staple pieces that I would see from the emo scene - like platforms and baggy pants. As I’ve grown older and have learned to experiment with my clothing, I’ve come to love the mash-up of my love for alternative wear with the more skin-revealing pieces in my wardrobe. If you want to dress edgier while still keeping some sex appeal, there are three must-haves that I personally think you need in your closet.
Boots
If you know me, you know boots are kinda my thing. I just love how powerful they make me feel (and how tall they make me look 🤣). Boots have a natural sex appeal that’s inviting; it makes others want to know more about you. I ordered these boots from Lamoda, but Demonia is also an increasingly popular site for a lot of alternative shoe wear.
Mini Skirts (and lots of them)
Now, this is one thing you probably have in your closest regardless, but it’s still worth mentioning. Mini skirts will never go out of style, and they’re the perfect way to create a more flirty look, especially in the spring/summer months.
A Pair of Shades
For me, this one is always the toughest to find, because I have such a hard time finding a good pair of shades that fit my face well 😫. But, once you do find that perfect pair of shades that make you feel like THAT B*TCH, hold onto them tightly!
If you can add these three items to your closest, you’ll be on the fast track to creating an edgier style. And in honor of all the boot talk, please enjoy this gif of the queen of the thigh-high boot:
