Today we have guest blogger Stephanie Fletcher from Slice of Lime Photography sharing her tips on incorporating a rocker chic look into your senior session.  Stephanie worked with Emil, owner of Slice of Lime Photography, to give us a great post on how your seniors can incorporate the rocker vibe three different ways!  Check it out below!

The number one rule in pulling off the rocker chic look is that there are NO rules. I could go on for days about the elements and looks that fit into this category…black and white…punk rock…denim…leather…studs….spikes… the list goes on and on.

The other BEAUTIFUL thing about the rocker chic look is that there is no commitment to any one decade of style. The 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s rock styles can all be sandwiched together for one killer look.

When working with our seniors, I have found each of our girls (and guys) have a little bit of a rock star inside them. With the right styling, the stage is set for a hella good show.

I pulled together three different looks to help guide any senior who wants to connect with that inner rocker.

Who doesn’t think of rock ‘n’ roll when you hear the name Joan Jett? She used her edgy, tough girl attitude and one-of-a-kind look that incorporated tough materials like leather, chains, studs and animal prints to pull off her stage persona. Integrating one or more of those elements into an outfit as I did with the first look can help any senior channel Joan’s gritty style.

For our second look, I wanted to channel a bit of Kate Moss. Though Kate herself has shown no musical talent, she has hung on the arms of plenty of rock stars in her day. And as the spokes model for Rimmel Cosmetics, she’s paid to sport ‘the ultimate rock chic look’. Though her look is striking, it’s quite simple – Old cut-up band t-shirts, tight dark denim, and leather. Add some spiked and studded accessories and you’re golden.

For our third look, I wanted to feature the quintessential colors of rock glam – black and white. Most rocker looks come off without a being gender specific; however, this look shows off a more feminine, softer side. Stripes make such a statement and with cropped shorts, ankle boots and pulled back hair, she is an alternative goddess.

So if you have senior who wants to experiment with style and may not quite fit the “rocker” mold, worry not. Rocker chic style can cover a wide range of artistically talented personalities.

Knowing that rocker chic is a style that never dies…it makes me wonder who our seniors in 2025 will be modeling their “old school” rock star look after…Miley? Taylor? Demi? Rihanna?
