Bell Bottom Flare & Vintage Tanks to Inspire ║ My Street Style

I have a nice little collection of vintage band tees growing inside my closet now. I’ve been picking them up here and there, and trying to stick with bands that were heavy-hitters in my early taste developmental stages. I know not all of us went through metal stages, but I certainly did. Hence my Iron Maiden (they just released a new album!), Metallica, and Megadeth shirts.

I have a pretty kickass Van Halen tee I’m quite fond of as well. However, you frequently find that they’ve been altered, sometimes even cut into muscle-shirt styles. I personally save the “running around in just a bra under this shirt” look for late nights when I’m not day-walking, so I layered a sequin-covered bandeau top underneath this Iron Maiden baby. I like the unexpected sparkle.

These jeans qualify as an impulse buy from a recent trip to the mall. I’ve been courting the idea of a pair of super-flare jeans, but buying denim can be hard for my athletic legs. For giggles, I tried these Free People jeans on, and angels started singing. Let’s not talk about the price tag, however (and they’re really not even that expensive, I’m just cheap and unemployed). I want to wear them all the time to make the price worth it!

My leopard Jeffrey Campbell Litas are often only worn a few times a month, so this day was the perfect to bust them out on the town. I don’t suggest running around brick alleys with them, though!
