*Can You Do Retro Punk?*pt deuce

So Ladies and Gentlemen, we're on to part deuce of Retro Punk, yes?  Let's get in to it...

This time, lets start with the gentlemen... Just being honest, it's very hard to pinpoint this style in the African American community when it comes to our men...  Its going to be VERY hard for you guys to do it.  You have to play this one JUST right...  Sorry but just being honest?  Chris Brown is one of the few black guys who can do the punk look well...  So here are a few pix...

This is Chris Brown, attending Milan Fashion Week... Very European Punk..

Classic '50s Punk

Now men, because of who we (Black) are, we can not so much do the original punk look without being talked about in our community, it just doesn't work that way...  Leather biker jackets are GOOD look for the spring season, for this trend...*

Now, Ladies!
The Punk look is way more easy for us to accomplish than our counterparts...  And we also have a few choices to do so- Glam Punk, Lolita Punk, Retro Punk..  Let's dive into a few of those styles to show what's appropriate...

*Glam Punk*

Let's get into this look!  This is one of the easiest looks in the Glam Punk trend.  Very matchy matchy, very simple, yet you STILL stand out.  Any chick can do this, no matter your size..  Make sure to pay attention to the small details, meaning take a close look at the purse, earrings, ring, and belt.  They all have what in common? GOLD!!!  The small detail of gold all tie in the one huge piece which is the purse.  That is how you work this fashion.  Let me give you ladies a FEW more examples of Glam Punk, and then we can move on..

Now this one is a bit more tricky.  Almost every piece needs to be punk. Now, most definitely pay attention to ALL of the accessories.  The earrings match the shirt, the bracelets match the belt, which match the shoes.  I have a very similar outfit to this one!  Hmmmm.... Now I want to wear it! Tomorrow it is! LOL! And Though I clowned some chicks for the Blazer Gang, a blazer is a GREAT piece to own, Ladies! GET ONE! A Black one, goes with EVERYTHING... One more thing about this one- pair a great animal print clutch with this, and it will set it off! Such as...

H&M has GREAT accessories.  My Atlanta people, you all know all about H&M.  My Birmingham peeps?  Take a trip to Atlanta... And they are NOT expensive... This purse will go great with the above outfit.  One more pic of this trend and on to the next!

This one is quite self explanatory.  I have one similar to this one too...

NOW! On to Lolita Punk!
Lolita Punk trend is VERY similar to Harajuku Punk...  OMG, I know I have to put my people on to some things...  I know a lot of you are reading this like " Uh, Whhhhhaaaaaaa?"  YES, we can do this one too!  Now, granted, this one is usually only done by Japanese, but hey!  I've seen quite a few pieces that I will rock the hell out of!!!  Here we go!

I can rock the sh*t out of this one!  What ya think?

These muthuf*ckas ARE BAD ASS!!! Don't lie to yaself and say they aren't!!!

And even the Kiddos can get into it too!

They are so cute!
Ok, homies, be on the look out for my next blog... *Geek Chic!*, with photos of a few locals that rock it WELL!!! Outtie 5000, BITCHES!!!!! HAAAAAA!!!****
