My Wardrobe: Grunge Inspired

September 26, 2016 Unknown 17 Comments



My first encounter with grunge style was on Instagram through one of my followers. I loved the vibe she was giving (her clothers, captions, lifestyle, et al.) and her bio said "grunge enthusiast" so I wanted to know what grunge was so started my research.

From my findings, I discovered that grunge was an 80's / 90's look associated with grunge rock music. Apparently, the artists in this gernre of music used to dress a certain way. This made their followers follow en suite. Grunge style is sort of laid back and carefree just like the art. As the music spread so did the style and just as the music faded so did the style but get this, the stlye didn't totally fade it just mellowed and is still trending but in a very diluted version. In the following paragraph(s), I'll drop a few tips on how to dress grunge. You'll notice that everyone has a little bit of grunge in them.  

How To Dress Grunge



1.) Ripped/Frayed jeans: No grunge look is complete without a pair of ripped jeans. The jeans can be frayed anywhere. It doesn't matter as long as it looks worn or slightly faded. 

2.) T-shirts: This got incorporated into the  style because most of the people who dressed grunge represented a rock band that they loved. Everyone has a t-shirt and what better way to rock them than with a pair of ripped jeans. 

3.) Flannels: Another thing about this style is layering. So investing in flannels and denim jackets is not too out of place here. 
4.) Sneakers: Need I explain why this is necessary? I would anyways for the sake of others. From the previous tips and facts about grunge style, you must have observed that it's laid back and whatnot.  To me, the comfiest shoes are sneakers. To be honest, I'm pretty sure true grungers would cringe at the thought of wearing stilettos or pumps. 

5.) Unkempt hair: Optional. It really depends on what you're cool with. 

6.) Minimal Jewellery: When it comes to grunge style, we try to take the use of jewellry down a lot of notches. It's best to go with a leather or beaded bracelet, rings or a necklace. Nothing to make much of a statement. 








This is my first time trying this stlye and I have to say, I liked it. It's way too comfortable.  So if you're into laid back effortless fashion, the best way to express your "laid-backness" is with grunge style.

    1. True that. I'm into clean cut fashion no matter the style I try so I did a little remix of the rather dark and edgy trend to suit my style.
