We’ve all been there before – found ourselves in the office bathroom wondering who is that ghostly woman staring back at me from the mirror, and didn’t she put on her face today?! And then you realize it’s YOU!!! Fear not! Your lipstick is a 3-in-1 power tool that can give you a refreshed face in no time. No need to lug a giant makeup bag around with you all day!

It’s the end! The third and final piece from my menswear mini-series, and it all revolves around this killer piece with built-in suspenders and a bow tie graphic from Scotch and Soda. I paired it with a short, flared skirt and bright red pumps for maximum femininity, and I grabbed my man’s fedora and trench for the outerwear. I call this look, “Urban P.I.”

For the second part of my menswear ideas for women series, I experimented with a men’s tie and vintage tie clips. I kept all the other pieces very feminine – pink shirt, flowy skirt/dress, sparkly earrings, hair down, bright lipstick – to offset how masculine a fully-buttoned and tied shirt looks to me. We had to bring the photo shoot inside this time – it’s in the negatives in Chicago!

One of my favorite places to go shopping when I’m on a budget is in my boyfriend’s closet – I love menswear looks on women. I think masculine pieces on the feminine form are so sexy and show that you have the confidence to compete with the guys. In fact, I think I’ll do a mini-series of menswear looks to inspire you!
