Fashion wise do you guys think edgy is a cute style? Is it in right now? I personally am in love with this look and wear versions of it quite often. But I am wondering if you guys know any good sites or stores to buy cheaper edgy clothing and jewelry? Things like leather jackets, cardigans, leggings, boots and spiky jewelry.

How would you wear the edgy look? Would you wear it? :)

Here are a few examples of what im talking about:

Not Gothic and not exactly punk. It's like a mix between punk and classy

I love the whole 'edgy' look! Oh, the days of being a dumb little punk kid in middle school & a silly metal head in High School. XD Studs, black glitter, leather, lace, spikes will forever be fashionable to me. :D

I know stores like Forever 21 & stuff are starting to carry 'edgier' clothes for the season - so that's an easy place to find some good leather pieces. Honestly, anywhere you look has the right pieces to create this look. Black/dark clothes are so easy to find, it's just a matter of 'mix & matching' w/ those main statement articles of clothing.
From what I've seen in the past few weeks, the boots, the leather, the studs is ALL over stores at the malls right now. I suggest just looking around. :D

These kind of outfits are my faveee. That sparkly top is gorgeous. I love mixing edgy pieces with super girly stuff.

@ Andrea G. I went through that phase too and still listen to the same music but definitely broadened my fashion tastes! haha

This look is easy to find clothes for, I saw some really cute faux leather jackets at Target for about 30$ not sure what your price range is but you can find cheap knock offs anywhere! I also think the whole point of edgy style isn't about buying name brand but more anti-authority/name brand and a lot of D.I.Y. things. Like the last picture, those leggings with the holes in them, you could easily make them yourself with scissors. Also, lost of stores carry studded jewelry, those won't be hard to find! i feel like you could put this style together quite easily and it's always in! =]

In my city no one really has to guts to be edgy...skinny jeans with UGGS and fitted tops still rule here. Just be you and don't care about what others think. The only places I know of that carry what you have in mind are all on the west coast and none of them have seem to gone into the world of the 'net or else I would give you their links. :(

It's not particularly hard to find "edgy" pieces in any standard shopping mall (or even target, walmart, ross, khol's, tjmaxx etc.) Hell, I've found pieces that hold plenty of edge at Ann Taylor Loft. It's a matter of wearing and pairing them correctly. Any old pair of black, skinny jeans and a white t-shirt will do...
but will you pair them with a sparkly ballet flat? A stiletto ankle boot? A pair of traditional riding boots?
An oversized cardigan? A black leather motorcycle jacket? A tuxedo jacket? A hooded sweatshirt?
Diamond studs? Peacock feather earrings that hit your shoulders? 0-guage eyelets?
Red lips and winged liner? Smokey eyes and nude lips?
The clothing itself can be remarkably simple and easy to find. It's how YOU decide to wear it that makes it interesting!

I never considered those type of outfits edgy. It's something I've worn before regularly for an everyday look. lol 

@Rai: lol what would u consider "edgy"?

I do still like my edgy pieces; a little leather here, some spikes there, but for the most part I left that look back in high school.
