Punk is not difficult to wear. You can claim to be wearing it just by putting on a leather jacket. For the more courageous however, you can find heavy biker and military boots, which intelligently tick off two winter trends at the same time. On the other hand, you can immediately wear the trend by sporting studs on any piece which can be jackets, womens shoes and accessories, although be sure not to go to far with this as this can lead to serious stud injuries! As well, safety pins are also great accessories. Put one in a scarf, bag or a pocket along side other make shift badges or jewellery. And don’t forget the adrogynous look is always a hit and highlights that classical Coco Chanel look with a silk shirt and a fitted black suit jacket. Complete it with a scarf and silver jewellery and don’t forget the mandatory black pumps.
Standing out from the crowd shouldn’t be too hard with these looks, but if you wanted a more softer feel, then instead of going for the full stud and leather, wear interesting fabrics and boyish trousers/jeans, such as the cutoffs and leather shorts seen at Balmain. On top try a crisp white shirt with a striped blazer and some knee high boots with buckles. With make up you can go all out. This is the one look where lips and eyes can be worn at the same time. Think red lips and dark, dark eyes.
The best thing about the new punk trends is that it shows that sexy and stylish can also show individuality. It is a style that can easily be created by yourself, you can choose exactly what goes into it. Small, edgy details are key to this look, easily achieved by detail on accessories. To complete the entire look, wear hair loose and straight or up in a tight bun. And don’t forget the eyeliner!
