Dress up for class without putting on a complicated outfit that involves lots of zippers and colors. Instead, stick to the basics with some ripped jeans, a white t-shirt, a black belt, and black combat boots. Complete the look with a leather jacket: a must have item for edgy style!
2. Edgy Outfit for Work/Internship

The workplace isn’t necessarily the time to wear your leather jacket and boots (unfortunately), but that doesn’t mean you can’t wear clothes that still hint at an edgy style. Pair a dark colored blouse with your favorite business pants and heels. You can also try to add some edgy elements to your look if your workplace is more relaxed — think jewelry, belts, or fun jackets. You can even wear a leather pencil skirt to change things up!
