Curves Around the World: Rock chic

Hello Lovelies!!! I hope your all doing well and having a fabulous week so far. Well it's that time again for another "Curves Around the World" post and it's our #13th theme already. It's seems like just yesterday I we started doing these themes, I am so happy doing them and working with the awesome ladies from around the world. It's great seeing how different we all take the themes and each week they continue to inspire me in so many ways. 
So this week's theme is "Rock Chic" and I don't think I dress this way but I have to say there are parts of me that love the Rocker look. The staple of a lot of Rock looks I see, is the Leather Jacket. I love leather jackets and for the fall and winter it's my favorite piece to wear with my outfits. I think a leather jacket gives any outfit a little edge. So of coarse when I found out the theme was "Rock Chic" I knew I had to wear one. 
So the leather jacket that I'm wearing is new I bought it last week because Forever 21+ has a great deal on these jackets for only $18! I know finding a faux leather jacket my size is really hard and not to mention it can be very expensive. I own one that is several years old and it's starting to tear, so I was on the look out for a new one. So when I found out about the great deal I knew I had to get one before they sold out and unfortunately the black one is sold out online already. But they still have a burgundy one in stock online you can check it out (here), I'm actually debating if I want to get the burgundy one as well because it's such a great deal. You can also check your local forever 21 to see if they still have them in stock because I know at mine there were a lot of them when I went to the store. Oh by the way I think they run a little small because I'm usually a 1X in Forever 21+ but it was really tight on my arms and it didn't close so I got a 2X and it fit perfectly.

So I wanted to keep my outfit really simple because I picture a rocker girl in simple basic clothes with leather and studs. I really wanted to wear a studded belt but I don't own one but I think that would have really put the outfit together. But I have the leather from the Jacket and the studs from my boots. I think it came out really well even though I went really simple with the outfit. By the way I had the jacket off in the second picture because it was so hot I was sweating so much because it was in the high 90's here in California. But hey you gotta do what you gotta do and I don't think my outfit wouldn't have been complete without the Jacket. 
So that's my Rock Chic look! What do you think about Rock Chic? Is it a style you wear? What do you think of when you hear Rock Chic? 

Well now that you've seen my Rock look be sure to stop by the other wonderful ladies from "Curves Around the World" and check out how they pulled of the theme!

  4. The simplicity take on the theme that's what made your outfit a standout ... you already had two bold pieces (jacket & boots) so, not adding anything else gave you a perfect Rock Chic look. you look amazing and those sunnies added flavour too ... love your interpretation :)
