In last week’s Work Wardrobe Wednesday post I discussed my love of menswear for women. I received a lot of requests asking if I could demonstrate another menswear for women look. Well, you know what I’m going to say next – ask and you shall receive!
The key for wearing this look is to make sure that all your pieces are tailored so that you create a streamlined silhouette.
So, which menswear for women inspired look of mine is your favorite? Let me know in the comments below!
{Vest: alice + olivia | Top: Frame Denim | Leather Leggings: alice + olivia (also available here) | Boots: Joie (on sale!) | Sunglasses: Burberry (borrowed via Ditto) | Rings: David Yurman and Michael Kors | Lipstick: MAC (shade Creme d’Nude)}
cute look. Your leggings give the illusion that your boots are taller when you’re wearing your coat. It’s very sneaky, and I love it. I’m working hard to find appropriate ways to transition more feminine items into my work wardrobe, so I’m taking your menswear-as-womenswear posts very seriously, just with a bit of a skew from your original intentions. I don’t think I’m ready for leather leggings yet… but there are a lot of things about this look that works for me. Something I would like to see you touch on (or for you to point me to if you’ve done it already) is how to create a nice, curvy, feminine silhouette with the menswear look even if you’re not nice, curvy, and feminine. How can I give the illusion of curves without corsets and silicone inserts all over the place?
