Summer Outfits: Edgy

Now that it's summer, I have more time to focus on this blog, and I'm going to try to upload every Thursday. Since it is summer, I thought I would do a mini series of different outfits to wear in the summer. So each week will be a different trend or style. This week I'm going to show you four different "edgy" looks that I would and do wear. 
Outfit 1
First is this classic skater style. I'm wearing super dark wash high rise shorts (Forever 21). I love these shorts! They are so comfy and they were fairly inexpensive. I then added this Mtv crop top I bought from American Eagle. I tied an oversized flannel around my waist to top off the look. This is cute and also can be useful if it gets chilly. Like where I live, it's sometimes nice to have a sweater for the evenings when we sit around a fire or just hang out outside. my shoes are a pair of knockoff converse I've had for a couple years from Rue 21. They are so comfortable and a much cheaper alternative to real Converse.
Outfit 2
For a more girly look, i paired this black skater skirt (JCPenny's) with one of my favorite graphic tank tops. I got it from TJ Maxx and I've definitely worn my money's worth. It's a long shirt, so you can either tuck it in, or what I like to do is to tie it on the side. 
The shirt is the sun and the moon making a sort of ying yang symbol. I finished it off again with my knock off converse. Like I said, I love those things. 
Outfit 3

For this outfit, I again chose a graphic tank top. This one is also from TJ Maxx and is the same brand (Workshop). This one, however makes an infinity sign out of flowers and vines, and says "Live Life Wild and Free." It is black but looks almost like denim. You know what I mean? Like it has this faded worn look on it. Anyway, it's a cropped top but with a hi-low effect. I wore it with these gray shorts (Aeropostle), and paired the outfit with my black sandals. 
Outfit 4
This final look is a little out of my comfort zone. I bought this dress last year at Rue 21 for $2, but you can find similar ones all over the place. its just a simple tank top dress, but with a little flare. it has this cute tribal print on the front and fringe at the bottom. I again just wore those basic sandals (Target). By the way, I got that jump shot in one take :)  

Let me know which outfit was your favorite and if you have any ideas for future blogs. Make sure you're following me on instagram to see more of my outfits (Brittsco13). Hopefully I'll see you next Thursday! 
XOXO <3
