Amber Rose Shows Us How To Wear DMs In Spring

by Katharine McEntee

Amber Rose might be known for her body hugging silhouettes and daring outfits, but her latest style installment at a certain music festival was a drastic departure from her usual attire. Amber Rose’s Coachella outfit, which she posted to her Instagram on Apr. 17, consisted of a flirty floral dress paired with Dr. Marten boots. Like most festival-goers, Rose tried on a new look for the weekend, and while her bold fashion statements are fun, I have to say this laid-back look might just be one of my favorites.

Pairing super feminine pieces with edgy accessories can be a difficult task. However, Amber Rose did it with ease. The 32-year-old model, actor, and fashion designer effortlessly combined a cut-out floral dress with a pair of high-top DMs for a playful yet edgy ensemble. In true festival fashion, Rose polished off her look with some super cool shades and a black fringe cross-body bag.

While most people have their eyes on the Jenners this weekend, I’ve got my peepers on Amber Rose. From her oversized plaid shirt to her provocative graphic tee and now this fun and flirty number, Rose has been serving up all kinds of style inspiration. Don’t believe me? Just check out her floral dress and Dr. Marten combo below.

If you're a fan of Rose's edgy meets feminine style, try accessorizing one of your favorite summer dresses, floral co-ord sets, or shorts and crop top combos with a pair of Dr. Martens for a similar look. Don't have a pair of Docs? Never fear, I've rounded up some of the coolest kicks on the market.
