Watch music videos and read magazines to find inspiration. Although your rock star look should be distinctive, many style icons draw inspiration from each other. Research retro rock stars and current musicians. Magazines and websites that focus on music or fashion usually have images that offer inspiration, from simple looks to glamorous ones. When you see an outfit or accessory that fits your personal style, make a note until you have a list of a few different possibilities.

Shop at thrift stores. With enough searching, many thrift stores offer rare vintage pieces and retro outfits. These pieces look distinctive and stand out from the crowd instead of coming off the racks at a trendy store. Look for items that match your chosen style, such as a leather jacket from the 1970s or combat boots from the 1990s.

A fitted t-shirt and jeans give off a rock star vibe. Wear fitted clothes. Part of exuding confidence is wearing clothes that flatter and highlight your figure instead of loose or baggy items. Look for fitted, tailored pieces that fit you well without being overly tight. A fitted black t-shirt and tailored jeans provide a rock star look for both men and women.

Add accessories. No rock star look is complete without a pair of sunglasses. Try on different sunglasses until you find a pair that complements your face shape, whether aviators or wayfarers. Other important accessories include pendants, necklaces, wristbands or belts. Look for interesting and distinctive styles rather than current trends. Try wristbands with spikes or a belt with a decorative buckle.

Test your look. After you've created a complete rock star outfit, try wearing it to a party or other casual social event. Ask a close friend for feedback. If you don't feel confident and cool in your outfit, tweak it until you do. For instance, try a simpler look with a tank top or a more glamorous look with a fake fur coat. Your rock star outfit should reflect your personality.
