Justin Bieber, Aaliyah, Madonna, Rihanna, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, Usher and TLC – They all do it. Free-spirited and casual urban wear is a form of expression and quite comfortable actually. Sometimes we need a break from the pumps and pencil skirts. Other times we need a break from the ordinary. Well if you ever find yourself in need of a fashion reboot think crazy, sexy, cool. Go ahead. ‘Get urbanized‘ with urban fashion.
Hip Hop giants, Run DMC, commercialized urban looks with Adidas, baggy sweatpants, kangol hats and gold chains. That was the 80s and the urban fashion trend still prevails everywhere. Celebrities continue to remix and adapt this laid back {chill-lax} style – especially the ladies who have adopted, revolutionized and mastered this ‘tom-boyish’ look. Taking a style that usually means wearing clothing that’s too big and making it feminine and sexy.
Fun and fearless, urban fashion has no rights or wrongs. It’s free-form fashion. But one thing it definitely is – is colorful. This doesn’t mean dress like a bag of skittles exploded on you. No, no no. It can be as simple as baggy jeans, a white t-shirt, wedge sneakers and a drop dead gorgeous red lip. The key is being comfortable in your own skin! So the next time you pick up a pair of 4-inch heels and skinny jeans and think “ohhhhhhhh, not today,” consider unleashing your inner tom-boy with an urban trendy outfit.
