Edgy and Trendy: Studs & Spikes

Recently I have been seeing a lot more of the studs and spikes trend; both in stores, and in my own closet. What can I say, I am absolutely in love with it! It's both chic & edgy, while at the same time, wearing it makes me feel both, more daring, and more badass. I know it might sound silly, but honestly that's what I love about fashion; it has the ability to completely change the way you feel, and think about yourself. 

As many of you may have been able to tell from my most recent post, in which I showed pictures of my purchases from Forever 21, I somehow managed to purchase pieces in which nearly every single one had either studs or spikes on it, which is definitely saying something about my love for this trend. Not to mention that I already owned a few other pieces that sport this particular style, even before my recent shopping excursion, and I definitely plan on purchasing many more pieces with studs and spikes in the coming months. So yeah, I guess you could say I'm a tad obsessed! 

Studs and spikes are such a fun and trendy way to add some edginess to an otherwise plain, or girly outfit. I absolutely love finding pieces like a floral dress, or a pair of colored shorts that have stud detailing on them. It's so different, and unexpected, and yet so perfect. 

So if you want to add a touch of edginess to your wardrobe this spring/summer season why not?! Be bold, be daring, go ahead, buy some clothing pieces with studs and spikes, release your inner badass. You know you want too.

My Fashion Must Haves for Spring

Swapping out your winter coat for a Denim Jacket, putting away your warm leggings, in exchange for a cute dress, or placing your winter boots back into your closet, and taking out your favorite pair of sandals. Nothing says spring quite like trading in all those heavy winter layers for lighter more comfortable ones. Spring is by far one of my favorite seasons for fashion. Partially due to the excitement of actually being able to show some skin, and partially because of all the bright and vibrant colors that you get to wear. The first signs of spring are always so exciting. They bring with them a promise of a renewed hope for long, warm, and sunny days, as well as the possibility for more fashionable and trendy clothing. Lets be honest, Winter can make it very difficult to be trendy. I mean sure you may have a cute outfit on, but in order to go anywhere in that outfit, you must first put on a bulky coat, along with a scarf, and gloves, and sometimes even a hat, completely covering up any sense of style you had going on. Spring however is different. In spring you don't have to hide behind layers, and layers of clothing. You get to wear your outfits the way you intended to, and you get to leave your house without feeling like a giant marshmallow. So cheers to this spring season season, may it be all that you hope it to be, and more!
