Fairy grunge outfits:

Hoodies with graphic designs of our favorite fairies have to be one of the most beautiful things in the fairy grunge wardrobe. Hoodies on their own are simple and easy to wear, but in a fairy grunge world, it can be more. You can wear a hoodie that covers you down to your thighs, then wear high platform gladiator shoes.

3. Nightgowns
In the fairy grunge world, nightgowns aren’t for sleeping only. It can also serve as a costume for fairy grunge-themed events. Nightgowns are quite simple on their own, allowing you to add whatever you would like as extra to the finished look.

Cargo pants are those oversized pants that come in primarily green or brown colors but are so comfortable to wear. They bring that earthy look to the outfit and give you a perfect backdrop to match other fashion items with.

10. Elf Ears
Yes! Elfs are fairies too, and we love them.

While we can’t naturally grow elf ears, we can make fake prosthetics and wear them with pride. You can choose any color of your liking, as long as it’s pleasing to the eyes and matches your other outfits.
