Chinese foot-binding for my size 9 feet is sounding more and more appealing, especially with GORGEOUS boots like this on Etsy! Vintage lace-up combat boots with patent leather toes and heels, bronze dusted leather leather trim, lace embellishments and six eyelits…the only thing these perfect kicks don’t have are a pair in my size! Devastation!

Peaches Geldof talks about her “fashion icon” status and her distaste for sexy dressing:
“[I]t’s obvious I’m not dressing for men. I don’t want to be sexy, I’m, like, covered in tattoos. I have piercings. I’m just grungy and weird and not what is socially accepted as being beautiful, and I think that’s cool.”

The May editorial from Who What Wear featured a flashback to to the OG Beverly Hills 90210 style. The ’90’s grunge style has been back for a while, and these girls bring you ’90s nerdy, sexy, and casual chic.
Here’s what they had to say about the looks:
“When you hear the words “nineties fashion,” most people immediately envision something sloppy, involving flannel, and heavy on slacker attitude. While it’s true that these Alice-in-Chains-influenced styles were certainly emblematic of the time, grunge wasn’t the only trend in town˜oh no! The decade was also front-loaded with lots of edgy silhouettes, bright accents, and zany looks, all of which are feeling fresh again. ”

I’ve noticed recently that lots of people are looking back to 1994 for style inspiration. Some may say that girls like Cory Kennedy and MK Olsen look homeless but the combat boots, the plaid, and the floral dresses all scream GRUNGE! The difference between grunge style of today is it’s high fashion. Look at Alexander Wang’s collection (see below), torn tights with a $1,000 dress-now that’s Nu-Grunge Chic! So put on your acoustic Nirvania CD and let’s go on a tour of Grunge then and now.
