Rhianna rocks the rock chick look!

From the wet-look leggings to leather jackets, Rhianna rocks the rock chick look, and it seems a lot of celebrities are jumping on the same band wagon. The rock chick look has been a staple trend since the days of the Rolling Stones, coming and going through fashion fazes. Lately Rhianna’s revamped look, choppy short haircut included, has taken on a harder edge. Black seems to be a personal favourite of Rhianna’s, and she reinvents the rock chick look with biker boots, skinny black jeans or leggings, and masculine jackets.

Rhianna isn’t the only singer looking to the days of rock and roll for some fashion inspiration; Fergie is also well known for her androgynous ensembles, equip with bowler hats, black sunnies and leather jackets. The rock chick look is an easy trend to add personal touches to. I am loving Harpers Bazaar’s twist on a modern day rock and roller. They incorporate wide legged black pants into the outfit, rather than the favoured skinny leg pants worn by Rhianna and Fergie.

Kate Moss and Pixie Geldof are two more contenders in the rock n’ roll game. Kate Moss chooses to simplify her look, mixing a black singlet and black leggings (she even carries a guitar for the added effect these days.) Pixie Geldof seems to be going for the trashed rock chick look a little too much lately, but regardless, she maintains her own personal style, mixing leather with oversized tees and knee highs. As the celebrities put their own spin on the rock chick look, there are a few staples of this trend that never go out of style; a good leather jacket and either black cigarette pants, or ripped denim. Of course the obvious choice is a band t-shirt, but please, do not wear a band t-shirt unless you actually are a fan of the band! I have seen this option go badly many times. Recently, fringing has returned to grace our closets, from our shoes, to vests and bags. Kate Moss was spotted wearing a fringed vest and white tee, whilst Sienna Miller chooses a day time rock chick look, mixing a blazer with fringed ankle boots, and ripped jeans.

Thoughts on the rock chick look? Do you think it has been overdone, or is still in fashion?
