You’ve probably seen them on a regular basis especially if you are spending most of your time on the internet. Young influencers (and maybe your next-door neighbor) tend to edit their pictures with this theme, and it focuses on anything that is trendy but with an edgy twist.
Though I’m not too adventurous in trying some new styles, recently I find some styling tips that I thought suit my current lifestyle, hobbies, and passion. After all, fashion is another way to express ourselves to the world.
According to our many friends from Urban Dictionary, a baddie is defined as someone who can take care of herself/himself, still looks fabulous in a sweatshirt, loungewear (probably something borrowed from a boyfriend) or a loungewear and co-ords, a person who doesn’t give take BS from nobody.
Basically, being a baddie is not only a style – it is an attitude. A girl-boss vibe that is ready to rock the world.
The best way to explain the look in a simple equation is your fave TikToker wearing high-waisted jeans, a crop top with a sporty, athleisure twist, everything’s on fleek kinda vibe, no set color pallet, it can be an oversized-tee and biker’s shorts, but mostly paired with your coolest sneakers available.
Even adding a few retro artifacts like flip-phones, or cassette tapes upcycled into an accessory. It all comes down to your personal styling, as long as it looks cool.
More on the vibe if you're still a bit confused: To look like a baddie—per my deep and thorough studies thanks to the Interweb and Gen Z'ers—means rocking a sporty and/or street-style look with some bold accessories and glam makeup. Of course, you can make the trend your own however you feel comfortable wearing it, but these are the fashion specifics the look was born from. So, if you're into loose-fitting denim, cropped sweatshirts, tracksuits, flirty bodysuits, and co-ords sets, and honestly anything with Y2K energy, you need to get on board the baddie train, mate!
Remember, it will look like the real deal baddie if you will add your authentic baddie attitude as well.
I partnered with the UK clothing brand Femme Luxe to show you how I styled their pieces into my baddie look. I personally chose and styled these outfit ideas for you to peruse and bring the aesthetic to life. Keep scrolling!
Cream Oversized Front Pocket Pullover Hoodie Cuffed Joggers Loungewear Set
Athleisure pieces will stay for the next couple of seasons, so investing in this pair is always a smart idea. You can wear it both indoor/outdoor and still, you’ll be that cute baddie. I decided to pair it with my nostalgic Hello Kitty handbag that I’ve got from my Disneyland trip back in 2019. I love the fleece fabric which gives warmth to my skin.
Nude Ribbed Loungewear Co-Ords
This look made me feel ‘I am confident, and I am ready to kick-ass’ kind-of-vibe and I love it! You’ll notice that I’m into beige and neutral colors as well, including grey loungewear coz they are always making you look so fresh and youthful while looking like a baddie.
Stone Ribbed Ruched Hem Long Sleeve Crop Jumper Skinny Joggers Loungewear Set
Definitely one of the cozy loungewear sets available from Femme Luxe, and I love the texture of the fabric. It is softly knitted, and not wrinkly which is amazing. Wear it with a cool fashion accessory such as a pair of sunglasses, jewelry, and statement shoes. Don’t forget to wear your baddie attitude and own it.
Sage Oversized Sleeveless Crop Top & Drawstring Waist Joggers Co-ord
Sleeveless cropped top is one of the staples of a baddie fashionista, and this look made a cut. I styled it with the gold necklaces I have, and this cute beaded little handbag that I’ve got from a charity shop (see being a baddie also knows how to do thrift shopping!), and my usual white pairs of sneakers.
Aside from its beautiful fleece fabric, this co-ord is nice to mix and match with my other pieces in my closet.
Femme Luxe offers heaps of fashion pieces that are perfect to complete your baddie aesthetic closet. If you are into a bodycon midi dress and milkmaid top I bet you will fall in love with their latest collection.
What do you think of the baddie aesthetic?
I've been into coords loungewear sets lately and I'm obsessed with it! Easy to wear and style plus it's super comfy. Aaand, asian fashion on Tiktok (which I think where the asian baddie aesthetics came from) has really changed my sense of style. I feel like I'm going into having a minimal closet to minimal lifestyle phase. I'm sure going to check out Femme Luxe!
ReplyDeleteI only recently learned about 'Baddie' style from many Gen-Z articles. Wearing co-ords loungewear is very practical, compared to other super trendy styles. Tapos okay lang paulit-ulit.
DeleteThe nude ribbed loungewear looks good on you. I like the effect of the flowers on the ground, I thought you intentionally spread them on the lawn.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ivan! Yeah those camellia flowers blooms like crazy during winter, and I just let them withered on the ground para fertilizer na rin. Super hardy plant, at ang ganda ng mga bulaklak.
Deleteyou rock all outfits girl! i love how you layered your necklace. you look stunning!
ReplyDeleteAwww thank you Kate! Para-paraan lang yan!
DeleteI too am a fan of neutral colors and I find this collection fabulous! I specially like the Nude Ribbed Loungewear Co-Ords and I see myself wearing it! Will definitely check out Femme Luxe. Great collab btw!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Polly!
Deletefleece lounge wears are perfect for your weather there now... i love them on you but i love the pointed slip-ons the most.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy! Yeah, these are perfect for the crazy and unpredictable Victorian weather. But If I'm in Queensland, I guess I will be always in my shorts :)
DeleteIt's my first to hear about "baddie look"and this fashion style fits perfectly people in the go! Femme luxe has great pieces to achieve this look and you also pulled it off!
ReplyDeleteThanks Danica!
DeleteAaaah ang cute nga ng outfit na to! I want to try it kaso di siya masyadong applicable dito sa weather ng Pilipinas haha. Try ko pa rin, medyo maulan naman dito ngayon.
ReplyDeleteKapg medyo lumamig, pwede na!
Deletei didnt know the "baddie" style. akala ko mej athleisure ang tawag dito. im not sooo keen on this di ko alam if i can carry it as i think i dont have a baddie attitude hahahaha!! shy girl kasi. but i like the 2nd set, i think if you will ask me to wear baddie, ganun ang outfit ko.
ReplyDeleteNalito rin ako nung una, kaso the recent Gen-Z lingo prefers baddie, instead calling it simply athleisure, lol
DeleteI love love love this aesthetic. I consider myself a baddie as well, but i got absolutely no sense of style. I should prob make gaya this din haha
ReplyDeleteYou got your unique style! Please flaunt it too!
DeleteThe nude ribbed loungewear co-ords are so perfect for you. But if I will choose one to wear I want the stone ribbed ruched hem long sleeve crop jumper skinny joggers loungewear set. I don't have a good sense in fashion but I would love to try it too, just like what you did.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear!
