Don’t hold a grunge.

It’s Friday, Friday, gotta get grunge on friday. Alright I probably just lost your respect. I take it back. But really, I love Fridays and I love dressing cooler than I am. Hence this outfit. Grunge is not something you will always find me gravitating towards(it’s more of my sister’s thing) but I love to experiment with my wardrobe and do something out of my comfort zone that isn’t typical Julia attire. I honestly remember saying a few years back how I would not be caught dead in camo. I always thought of camo as red neck and for hunting only, but within the past year, I have grown to love it. It is up there in my top favorite patterns now with cheetah, stripes, and polka dots! I think what I like most about it is that it includes neutral colors that go with almost everything.

To get this grunge look, I started with this Hello Friday graphic tee from Target. This tee is simple but I love the font and of course what it says. I then added this camo button up because it coordinated with the neutral colors of the tee. To keep the grunge theme alive I wanted to wear some ripped boyfriend jeans. I love these pants! I actually got them from Francescas awhile back and they are the best casual jeans. Now let’s talk about these boots. They are life changing and from none other than Target!! They are first of all comfy, and they are the best color. If combat boots and oxfords had a baby, it would look like this shoe! I’m loving this camel color this winter because it looks good with literally anything. I also like to style these boots with crew socks, socks need more attention every now and then. Anyway, these shoes were meant to be with this outfit!

To top off the grunge look, I added my new favorite beanie. I never thought I would own a slouchy beanie until now. This beanie has the perfect amount of slouch(what a weird word). I also love the light heather grey color of it! I got this beanie from Charming Charlie’s and they have several other colors in this same style. Its a knitted beanie that almost reminds me of a sweater because of its patterns. I bought all of these items at different times but when I put them together, it was like a match made in fashion heaven. The beanie matched perfectly with my graphic tee and it also went great with camo. The beanie was my favorite part of this outfit because it really solidified the grunge look. To keep it grunge and not so girly, I stayed away from almost all jewelry. I did however add some simple pieces like my gold/tan wrapped Fossil watch and a few gold rings to add even more edge.
