What’s Your Eccentric Glamour? Rocker Chic

May 21, 2009

Last week we took inspiration from Simon Doonan and asked, what’s your eccentric glamour? We took a look at Bohemian Chic style, now it’s time to rock out and ask, are you a rocker chic fashionista?

Good style and good music has always been a match made in heaven. From Beatles’ hair, to Madonna’s tulle, to Amy Winehouse’s rocker-mess, musicians have a profound influence on style. The rocker chic look consists of black, dark sunglasses, fringed scarves, chunky jewels, and a lot of attitude. Designers from all over the spectrum—Chanel to Alexander Wang—embrace and create rocker chic masterpieces. It doesn’t matter if you don’t bang the drums or listen to bands with names like “The Bloody Knife,” rocker-style is an infusion of your own personality and original style. Rocker style can be borrowed or incorporated into any ‘fit. Remember to always rock out with your heart out.

Beautiful Bags by Brynn Capella

“ … the sprit of individuality combined with classic elegance and everyday casual.”

A love of music, fashion, architecture, nature, and shape inspired designer Brynn Capella to start her own line of handbags. From friends to family, each unique creation is named after someone close to Brynn who inspired her (and the look of the bag). A Southern Californian living in Chicago, Brynn combines the SoCal and Windy City aesthetic in each of her creations.

Brynn’s experience in the music industry has made her a favorite among rock stars including KT Tunstall and Katy Perry (see Brynn and Katy chilling above!).

We love this versatile oversized Heather envelope clutch made with soft leather in various colors. It’s inspired Brynn’s love of pop and modern rock—“simple design with a touch of rock n’ roll.”

For a unique, inspired design to carry all your ‘ish look no further then the fabulous rocker-chick Brynn Capella.
