August & September Loves.

As the first official blog of Wild Frankie & as it's coming to the end of another month, I thought I would kick-start this blog with my August & September Loves.

Over the last couple of months 'Grunge' has taken a huge part in my recently bought items. Inspired by 90's Punk Rock bands, graffiti filled streets & late night rendezvous. The thing I have found best about this look is (if done right) can be cheap, unique & completely open.

Here is a list of 10 key items I have chosen to create this look.

1. Acid Wash denim

2. Combat Boots

Now I absolutely love this style of shoe. Combat boots come in a range of colours, brands & prices. If your lucky enough you can pick some up from your local op-shop for (hopefully) quite cheap. If not ebay has a wide range including 'the king of boots' Doc Martins.
3. Flannelette shirt.

Ripped at the arm, tied round the waste. 'Flannys' are cheap, comfortable & available in all colours & patterns.
4. Band T'shirts

Now this is where YOU can decide which is a band to wear. Personally I look for a old-school timeless band such as: The Rolling Stones (as pictured) Led Zeppellin, Pink floyd, Alice in Chains, The Beatles, Nirvana etc.
5. Velvet

Anything velvet. Velvet is a good way to set you apart from others, or if your looking for something a little more dressy but still 'grunge'. I picked myself up a pair of maroon velvet leggings from ebay for under $30. Paired with a loose singlet or tee is an easy get-up for a day out or gig.
6. Leather pants or 'Wet Look' leggings

7. Bikers Jacket

8. Ripped Boyfriend Jeans

9. Accessories
Anything from skull rings to wooden cross necklaces, leather bracelets & chains.
