Pretty in Punk
It’s a British invasion! We’re lovin’ punked out pieces, like safety pin earrings, bold plaid pants and boots you can stomp around in. Ya don’t have to be on your way to a concert to look rocker-ready.
Our punky picks look brilliant no matter what.
We’re mad for plaid this season, and these pants are cute beyond words. Sport ’em with Chucks and a t-shirt for a casual vibe. Or dress them up with ballerina flats and a black tie-front blouse.

Tiny safety pin earrings are the tiniest way to rebel. Plus, they’re stylin’ with everything you own!
Safety Pin Studs, $12, urbanoutfitters.com
Give your hoodie the royal treatment. Great for days when ya wanna go totally casual in distressed jeans and broken-in boots.
Rock Saved the Queen Hoodie, $20, charlotterusse.com
You don’t have to drop major bucks on Doc Martens to nail the chunky boot trend. These clunkers are just as cool. Make them girly with a floral frock and bright leggings. Or go classic with black jeans and a moto jacket.
Sugar Women's Guitar Hero Wedge Boot, $44, endless.com
We heart studs! A bright pink belt softens a hardcore outfit or adds some toughness to a poofy dress. Instant edge, chica.

Vests are all the rage right now and we're lovin' that this one has a hood. Worn-out denim fabric pumps up the volume. Perf to layer with a comfy concert tee.
