Gender-bending fashion.

Filed in archive Trends on January 29, 2008

For the longest time women's fashion has always been about lace and ruffles and pink, well thinks are changing. The newest looks for women are inspired by men's clothing. Seriously, did you think a man could inspire us to do anything? (Zing!!) Look for tuxedo jackets, suit vests, and tuxedo pants. Ok, I don't mean that literally, like don't go into a tuxedo rental place and try to get something, because you will probably get crazy looks. But if you want to try to be extra fashionable, slap a boutonniere of your suit jacket or sweater, no I'm serious. If you want to wear fresh flowers, why not? You don't have to put it in your hair to wear it. Try something new, be daring, be manly, flex those fashion muscles! (Seriously, I have had a total lack of sleep and this is what I think of when that happens.)

	This is a perfect topper for a great outfit. The satin lapels are really what makes this coat stand out. Tuxedo jacket, $108 at Victoria's Secret
	I love these pants. They are so classy. Alice + Olivia, Wide Leg Tuxedo Pants, $275 at ShopBop.com
	Here is an outfit idea, take a men's dress shirt and add a tank underneath. Button it up halfway and then add a belt around your waist. Such a cute look! Fitted solid lawn shirt, $39.50 at Gap
	Who says men can only wear suspenders? This skirt is a perfect, feminine take on the typically men's fashion trend. High-waist suspender pencil skirt, $39 from Newport-News
