Pictured at left is one of my favorite henelys to date. It's the Long Sleeve Button Henley by LnA, currently on sale for $35 at boutiquetoyou.com. (Yay! It JUST went on sale!)
I love the button detailing on the sleeves, I love the long-but-not-too-long length, and I love that it comes in either midnight blue or black.
To really get the rocker vibe, pair this henley with a pair of skinny jeans and, for bonus points, ankle boots (see our post Cool Ankle Booties For Moms). You could also try a pair of straight-leg jeans, but the wider you go, you'll start to lose the whole rocker vibe.
Again, do the half-tuck into a belt (check out our original henley post above for more info), and add rockerish accessories and a little something to keep you warm. Here are my picks:
I love Forever 21's Lace Overlay Belt in Gold. It's basically a gold belt with lace on top. Lace is huge this season, and while I don't think lace is particularly mom-friendly, paying less than $6 for an on-trend rockstar accessory certainly is. This belt retails for $5.80.
Layer Forever 21's Luscious Faux Fur Vest on over your henley. These fake fur vests are ridiculously trendy and not worth spending a fortune on, but for $24.80, it's a fun way to perk up some of your plainer outfits, and works amazingly well to give off a hip rocker vibe. Think Janis Joplin over Megadeath. Fake leather is totally uncomfortable to wear (as is, in my opinion, real leather) but fake fur is a different story. Comfy, cheap and fun.
Lastly, the henley shown above certainly doesn't need much more embellishment, but if your henley is a bit plainer (as mine are), I would add a studded leather cuff to complete the look.
This studded leather cuff is from Urban Outfitters and retails for $28. Nice.
Soooo....what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Let me know!
Rock on, Mamas!
