one of the boys

Recently I have been seriously digging the masculine "boyfriend" look. Boyfriend blazers, baggy jeans etc have quite a cool, laid back, sexy appeal. The underlying implication supposed to be that you woke up at your boyfriend this morning and didn't bother run home to change. You might remember a scene from Sex and the City where Carrie arrives home from Big's apartment wearing nary but a white mens shirt, manolos (of course) and a belt. Like that - just less literal!

Obviously this is a look all about balance. I am a big believer in balancing proportions. Call me old-fashioned but nothing looks as effortlessly thrown together as a bandage dress and a boxy blazer. Or a huge shirt and skinny jeans. Or a mini skirt and an oversized sweater. Also lets not forget - mens clothes have the added advantage of actually being comfortable. Oftentimes fashion does equal pain, just not necessarily every day of the week. So lets not suffer for our passion all the time - every now pull on a pair of baggy jeans and just be one of the boys.
