Trend How-To: Grunge Glam

Considered one of 2012 “It Girls” by the ever popular Refinery29, Cara Delevingne is officially out of the shadows of her sister and making a name for herself. Unlike the fantastically prim Poppy, Cara is the epitome of that bad ass chick we all wish we were deep down. Never leaving the house without a killer leather jacket and a matching pair of tough boots, this rocker style is exactly what I enjoy wearing on a regular basis…and I’m quite sure you as well. But for special occasions, lets say New Years Eve, must we really be required to clean up our act and don something a bit more classy amidst the sea of mixed drinks, fun and good friends?

I don’t think so. There is nothing worse than watching the token drunk girl leaving the bar dressed to the nines but falling flat on her face every three or four steps and this my friends will not happen if you follow in the footsteps of the lovely Cara. The recipe is simple and after the ball drops and the night begins to blur you will find the carefree walk to the after party sans slip ups and no bruises in the morning.

Notice I said “carefree” too. That’s right ladies no more walking the downtown streets Louboutins in hand and bare feet vulnerable.

But back to that recipe:

Two parts attention grabbing sequins

Shop them here and here.

One part hardware infused accessories

Shop them here, hereand here.

Three parts killer biker boots

 

Shop them here and here.

-A dash of makeup

-A head full of disheveled waves or sleek ponytail and…

Viola!! You’re now ready to party!

    The second dress is the better dress. But then they should both only be available in size 10 or less
