Trends 09 "Rocker Edgy"

A trend I am looking forward to is the edgy rocker trend. The color black, distressed jeans, leather and boots are great safe/inexpensive ways to play on this look but still have things that will go on past the life of the trend. I am really digging the color black right now coming outta winter and am only planning to set is aside for the short summer months. Since most the black will be on summer vaction for only a short time I think its worth still buying a few things toward next fall. Especially if I can score a bargin on them. Pregnancy helped me miss the boat last fall/winter, but fall/winter09' is looking promising for style.

Luckiy you can wear the Rocker Edgy stuff now, I love these black jean capris for this kinda look with sandals or flats for spring/summer and tucked inside boots for fall/winter. So I think they would be a smart choice for an addition since it allows year round wear.

A fitted Leather Jacket!! I am craving this Jacket big time and am like a shark circling for it to go on sale! I think Fitted is the only way to wear a Leather Jacket so that it will not ever go out of style. Leather jackets have been very popular for the last couple yrs and don't seem to be dying off soon! I chose this one b/c of its classic shape, I like look of the popular motorcycle jackets but fear that with such a high price tag its better to play it safe with a more classic style. After all the fit is most important to it looking stylish. The length and that the sleeves can be pushed up to give that nice cropped look for early fall/spring.

Two trends one purchase... Combining trends is the perfect way to make the most of a small budget when trying to add a few trendy things to your closet. The distressed boyfriend jean is a perfect example, its b/c of the trend overlap that I have decided to be bold and try this look.

Black booties...Booties have been very fashionalbe for the last couple years but luckily recently the heel heights have decreased and you can actually find a comfty pair. The black makes these rocker and edgy but the ruching makes them still girly/sexy. Since I am short the low ankle is perfect for not making me look stumpy and the suede makes them great for fall/winter. Overall this would be a great item to add for long term use. Also I think they would look great with a variety of outfits from skirts to boyfriend jeans (see pic above).
