Recommendation for my black/silver style?
I'm currently trying a new style
* Neutral colors (mostly black, some dark grey. occasionally light grey)
* Minimalist, solid colors - no logos/branding or patterns
* Sterling silver necklaces and bracelets (I think the sheen of silver adds a brightness to it that steel doesnt). I ordered some pieces from Luke Zions.
* I may get a piercing
The intention is to have somewhat of a gothy look but elegant refined and not overdone. I want a slight edge, but to still be approachable.
Currently, my go-to outfit is a black tanktop, a solid black unbuttoned overshirt, black jeans and a pair of all black sneakers.
But I would like to branch out from that? Are there any recommendations you'd have for this style
1) What kind of jackets should I get for this look? Would a leather jacket - in context of everything else I'm wearing - make it look too edgy and overdone?
2) Overshirts: While I wear mostly solid clothes, I am open to having a neutral color overshirt or 2 with an abstract pattern on if it fits the look.
3) Belts. I'm going to get a black dress belt with a silver metal buckle. Are there any other belts for a casual setting that would work? (Would a eyelet grommet punk rock belt be overkill?)
4) Shoes. I currently have Asics GelVenture 9 and Adidas Kaptir 3 (both in black). And I have Stan Smiths if I want white. Should I get a pair of chelsea boots? Would tactical boots or something like doc martens be overkill for this look?
