Inspiration: Tomboy Style!

Remember how a few weeks ago I wore a sort of tomboy outfit and went on about how I was inspired by menswear style, only to go straight back to talking about and wearing frilly, girly dresses? I hate how fickle my style is . . . I’d love to be able to pick a look and stick with it, but no matter. It’s fun to wear a frilly dress one day and a tweed blazer the next, and–who knows–maybe one day a pair of pants? I still have to get around to putting together a decent outfit with the pair I bought a few weeks ago.
So I think I’ll just keep on taking those baby steps towards wearing full-on menswear. Things like bowties and oxford shoes aren’t so scary when you can wear them with little corduroy skirts and simple dresses (who else keeps stalking the A.P.C. website for the sales?). And right now I’m kicking myself for leaving behind a perfect little tweed blazer in a thrift store today, especially whenever I look at that last street style shot below.
