Wear their clothes better than them
When we are so much better than
men at everything, why not steal some of their sartorial options and rock them
too? Blurring away the gender binary will open up more ways for you to ace the modern
style game and at the same time gain more access to comfort and nonchalance. In
fact, some items from the men’s section might actually be more flattering for
tricky body types. Fitted dresses, showing some skin and walking around in high
heels can be archaically stylish but, when done right, nothing can be sexier than
donning some masculine garb. Here are 10 men’s clothing items you need to get
hold of and some ideas to help you cross dress in a super stylish way.
1. Whitey Mightey
A classic white button down shirt will give you a cool, boxy
look. Roll up the sleeves, pair it with ripped skinnies, summer sandals and add
a dainty necklace. You can also tuck in one side and leave one out for a
relaxed feel.
To wear it at night, team up with black leather pants and a
black lace choker. Leave your hair in soft waves and sport some maroon lippy
FTW.
2. His jeans instead of boyfriend jeans
Why spend on the trending boyfriend jeans from the women’s
department when you can get the same look in less by picking up men’s jeans
instead? Try out the skin fit type in the men’s section and you can always go
for a belt to keep them up and cuff them if they are a little too long. We bet
you will get more comfort as well as a break from the overdone skinnies. Pair
with a black off shoulder top, a cool pair of reflectors and embroidered denim
loafers.
P.S. Check out the embroidered denim loafers at Chapter 13.
3. Play red riding hood
A black men’s pullover hoodie paired with red pants is
casual done right. Wear big silver hoops in the ears and opt for the no makeup
look and a messy bun.
4. For the love of
Paul Smith
If you have ever felt that women’s Peshawari chappals are
uncomfortable around the toe area of your feet, go for classic tan ones made
for the boys. They will work very well every time you slip into a casual
t-shirt and jeans. Add a tan cross body bag and some ethnic rings to your look
to femme things up.
5. Watch where you’re
going
Chunky jewelry is in fashion so why not wear a men’s watch
once in a while? Wear some beaded bracelets in different colours along with the
watch and a leather band so create a happening look on your wrist. If you feel
trendy and powerful wearing one, we will accept your note of thanks!
6. Say hi to the tie
Ties are not the best partners for suits only. Get your
hands on some quirky patterned ties and pair them with solid shirts on days
when the regular shalwar kurtas or
cold shoulder tops feel boring.
7. Blazing hot
A black oversized blazer screams chic and you know where to
find one from! Leave the buttons open and wear it with a maroon tee and dark
blue skinnes. You can also simply drape the blazer on your shoulder. Add a gold
bracelet or two on your wrists and some lip gloss for a hi-fashion look.
8.Waist that NOT
Get your hands on navy blue pin striped waist coat and wear
it with a half sleeves grey t-shirt for a super chic look. For bottoms you can
go for white skinnies or wide legged pants. Don’t forget a bag with a long
silver sling, little shiny studs in the ears and a feminine silver bracelet.
9. Camouflage the
sweat.
Grab a grey sweatshirt from the men’s section and pair it
with camouflage pants (which are all the rage ATM). You can pick skinnies or a
more relaxed fitting, depending on your style. Tie your hair in a messy
ponytail and experiment with the colour of your shoes.
10. Plaid it right.
Play the queen of quirk with a red plaid men’s shirt paired
with jeans and a black bomber. Don’t forget to add a pair of cat eye sunglasses
for some casual glam.
