Edgy with a Side of Tupac

For all my edgy girls out there, here's another way to style a metallic piece, in this case my metallic skirt.

Start with a metallic bottom. My skirt was purchased from Oldnavy. To create an edgy look, I added a graphic tank top. My tank top features a screen print of rapper, Tupac Shakur. This tank was purchased from Wet Seal a few seasons back. Great places to find graphic tees include Wet Seal and Forever 21. I have also had luck with finding graphic tees in the men's department of Walmart and Target, or at thrift shop. If you're willing to pay a little more money, Hot Topic also sells music related graphic tees.

To further the edgy look, I layered a faux leather motorcycle vest from Rue 21. The item was a Christmas gift, so I'm unsure of the original price. The tip to wearing a moto vest is to creating a slightly girly look with the dress. Add a skirt, or add pops of color, especially pink to sweeten up your edgy look! With my moto vest, I was able to create a monochromatic metallic look, focusing on the colors black and dark grey.

With midi skirts, I choose to wear boots always. Living in Kansas, you can get away with wearing boots for a while during the Spring. My boots were purchased a few years ago at Charming Charlie's. Though not shown, to complete the monochromatic metallic look, I added a feathered leather purse from Charming Charlie's that is shown below.

Be on the lookout for more looks with this gorgeous metallic skirt!
