Men's Wear 101


Dear Friends,
Men's wear. Those two words are enough to send goose-bumps all throughout my entire body. With autumn not far behind it seems that this trend isn't too far behind as well. I know you're probably wondering why on earth I'm even beginning to discuss autumn trends when we've just started with summer. Well lets just say I like to get a heads start. But not only that, this trend on woman has been around for sometime now. I'm sure you've all heard of a phenomenal woman named Katherine Hepburn. If you haven't then it's about time you hit the classics section on Netflix because she's what you'd call an icon. She's been gracing films with her tomboy/feminine sense of style. Not to mention, she's a damn good actress. Anyways, I always felt that men's wear on woman was and is such a classic as well as timeless look. I'm sure if you ask any man out there he'd tell you that a man's shirt on a woman is just as sexy as a man's shirt on a man. I guess it's a sense of empowerment we woman feel when we throw on an over-sized men's shirt or a blazer. Plus, with designers like Calvin Klein and Stella McCartney bringing back this trend in a more sleeker and stylish way, it's kind of impossible not to fall head over heels with it. And it's hard  not to come across a Chole ad with a some gorgeous model dressed head to toe in nothing but men'w wear. Yes, it seems that this trend is here to stay and that's all there really is to it. So now that you've realized that the trend is here to stay, you're probably wondering how on earth to pull this look off. Honestly, it's easier than most people think. If you're a trying to pull this look off for work then it's best to go with a silk, chiffon blouse tucked into some high waited trousers. Finish the look off some nude stilettos. If you're going out then try a sheer, peach tank tucked into white, skinny jeans finished off with a nude, over-sized blazer. If you're going to invest in a good blazer then I'd try one from Zara. The tailoring is perfection and they have numerous beautiful styles. As far as trousers go, I'd try H&M. Thier bargains are they have a collection of  trendy trousers. With a trend this fashionable and easy, you can bet I'll never leave the house without it. Have a great week and stay safe!

XOXO Sandra :)
