RED BUTTON-UP - Brass Plum (found in Polka Dots' closet) SILK NAVY TIE - Verugia (Camouflage's) BLACK MENSWEAR VEST - CAbi ROSE/SILVER MENS STYLE WATCH - DKNY VINTAGE PURSE - Thrifted (Thanks, Mom!) NAVY/PINK/RED HEELS - Charlotte Russe |
Today's "Inspiration Monday" from the ladies at Two Birds is menswear. I've been getting a lot of practice putting together these types of outfits, thanks also to Friday's Bloggers Do It Better. I'm actually starting to really enjoy this look (though I still have to get Camouflage to do the tie for me). There's something strangely sexy about women wearing men's clothes. However, I'm not sure about the reverse (though I bet some people would disagree with me) because I don't think I'd enjoy seeing Camo dressed in my clothes (plus I'd be afraid he'd stretch them out!).
Despite feeling good in the menswear, I asked Princess Sparkles if I looked good. She stared at me for a while then gave me a very timid, "yeah." I looked at her for a moment and asked again. She looked at me, shook her head and said, "no, Mommy." Princess Sparkles probably thinks I look like an alien! Oh well.
