Grunge

My own version of grunge, the music and lifestyle trend that originated from Seattle and popularized by disillutioned youths during the 90's . Nirvana was the poster band and Kurt Cobain the poster child of the movement. It reached popular sensibility when Marc Jacobs made his infamous 'grunge' collection for Perry Ellis (albeit silk and cashmere versions of thrifted flannel shirts favored by grunge kids). It cost him his job therw but we all know where Marc Jacobs is now.

My grunge look:

Top: thrifted graphic print top with Acne cardigan

Bottom: thrifted sheer cotton harem pants with silver thread inserts

Accessories: Bless bracelet and Birkenstock sandals
