Pirate Inspired Style... Arrr?

Like every popular series of movies, somehow the theme of the film gets incorporated into a seasonal trend.  For instance, The Twilight Series.  For awhile there, it was stylish to be pasty white dressed head to toe in dark colors (symbolizing a vamp) & much the same, The Pirates of the Caribbean series, will be trend followed as well...



Although the style is a bit more difficult to pull of, there are pieces from the trend that you can incorporate into a particular look. Since the style reminds me of a mixture of bohemian-grunge, it is a difficult look to pull off, without looking dirty (aka a pirate)...


But try simple traits of the trend, like crochet tops & denim cut offs...


Another big feature of the 'Pirate' trend, has been loading on the jewelry... excessively...


Again, in order to not look like you have been stranded on an island for years, collecting treasure chest findings, go with the boho look & try bright bracelets, stacked, layered & repeated down your wrists...


Finge is also a staple item to the 'Pirate' trend.  Keep it simple with a leather fringe tote..


...Or a leather fringed necklace...


Since the grunge look entails you to look like you had been rocking out for nights on end & have not had a moment to bathe yourself, the messy hairstyle goes effortlessly with the pirate style.  After a long day at the beach, tie your hair back in a whispy-loose braid...


...Or tie your bangs out of your face & throw on some bangles...


Here is the bohemian-grunge look brought all together...
What do you think? A trend of looks you would like to try or leave behind?
