10 Edgy Outfit Ideas You Need To Know About

We all have had those days where we wake up, look in the closet, sigh, and come to terms with the fact that we have nothing to wear – in a closet full of stuff, nothing. Look no further as these ten easy tips will help you spice up your look. The good thing is that each thing listed, we’re sure you already own something like it and if not, read this guide as these are the 10 edgy outfit ideas you need to know about!

1. Over-sized cardigan

An over-sized Cardigan can add dimensions to your outfit. If you are wearing a slim fitted outfit, wearing an over-sized cardigan adds a bit of flare. Cardigans complete any of the edgy outfit ideas since they’re so easy to add to your look! Knit cardigans work for the spring and fall and you can easily snag one…or four from your local Goodwill store.

2. Patterned pants to wake up your look

Some might think that wearing “loud” pants might send your outfit overboard, but these examples show the complete opposite. A patterned bottom takes any outfit from simple to trendy.

3.  Tie a handkerchief

This is probably the easiest tip on the list. Adding a colorful scarf for colder weather or a handkerchief in warmer climates can really make a world of difference.

4. Matching accessories

If you wear jeans and plain t-shirts on a regular basis, simply add accessories to your outfit that are all the same color and you’ll instantly look more fashionable and trendy. It breaks up the simplicity of the outfit.

5. Leather

A post about being edgy is not complete without adding leather. The connection between leather and edginess is one that does not go unnoticed. Leather should be a staple in any women of the 21st century’s closet, whether a skirt, jacket or boots – leather is so versatile. Leather can be worn with almost anything to just about anywhere!

6. Long-line blazer

Is there anything more satisfying than spicing up an outfit with a trendy blazer? Longlines, playing with proportions, silhouette-shifting are all ways to add an edge to a t-shirt and jeans outfit. The longline blazer helps shift your outfit from cozy to office ready. Add a cute heel or fly flats for that extra oomph.

7. Flared jeans

Flared jeans or bell bottoms are sometimes the hardest item to style. These examples show there is nothing to be afraid of when buying flared jeans. Since most flared jeans are tighter around the upper half of your legs, play with the volume of your shirts: wide tee or slim button up and your outfit is instantly edgier.

8. Add a colorful coat to a monochrome outfit

First off, I fully support the all black everything look. Adding a colorful coat or long line cardigan states that your outfit is important and not one to underestimate. The all black look is edgy on its own, but the simple addition of color can make things more interesting.

9. Thigh high boots

Don’t be afraid to make a statement with your outfit. Thigh high boots are a fall essential and go to when looking for something to spice up your outfit. Wear them with skinny jeans, a t-shirt dress, or skirt. Swap out your sneakers to take your outfit from day to night.

10. Bright colored shoes

Colorful shoes can act as a great form of expression, and they are a great way to show off your personality. Wearing colorful shoes with your outfit can illustrate that you are fun and not afraid to play with your style.
