I've joined another fashion challenge.
Style It Saturday is a celebration of individuality which allows bloggers involved to showcase their own unique style. Each month there is a theme which we interpret to suit our styles and shapes, in order to share ideas and put our own imaginations to the test!
The brains behind the challenge are Bee and Emily and you can read all about it on Emily's blog here.
The challenge this time is PRETTY AND PUNK.
I decided to focus on the ethos of punk for this challenge as I don't have any tartan or heavily studded items that could pass for traditional punk. I'm a rock chick who likes the gothic aesthetic and was trying to do punk, so there's a bit of everything in here. I mixed my stompy New Rock boots with some DIY-ed leggings from a couple of years ago and a couple of different tops. There's VBO a-plenty and exposed flesh because I'm fat and no fucks shall be given on this day. This isn't a flattering outfit, and I'm OK with that. I'm the gurning bastard child of Siouxsie Sioux and Sid Vicious.
