Spice Girls: Scary Spice

I told you she was next, so this post is inspired by none other than Scary Spice (aka Melanie Brown) herself. While her style has been toned way down in recent years, at the height of the Spice Girls' fame it was definitely out there.

Walking around in a top that resembles a bra or bikini top isn't exactly kosher with the rest of the world, so I threw added a simple tank top with a twist (I love the back). Though, if you feel so inclined, you could buy it a size or two too big, so it sleeps down and shows the very top of your bra. That way it's more casual, and less "Look at me!" I swapped out the more traditional camo pants for a skinny option, but if you prefer the baggier styles, by all means go for it! This is just my interpretation. I included classic Doc Martens, but they're not cheap, so I included a cheaper option as well.

Scary Spice was known for her love of leopard print, and this particular outfit was one of her most well-known outfits. I chose a dress as an easy way to pull off this look, and finished the look of with simple accessories. After all, you don't want the accessories to be too loud, since the dress should be the focal point of your outfit.

Miss Selfridge: Headband


This is the easiest look to wear, so it's perfect for those who aren't comfortable with a lot of pattern. It's cute, comfortable, and you can wear it almost anywhere. It's also simple, so I chose to spice it up with a glitzy headband and a fun ring.

So, what do you think?
