DRESSING LIKE A DUDE

On Wednesday I was going out for a day with my best friend and I felt like dressing in really comfy and loose clothes. This resulted in me kind of ending up looking a bit dishevelled and boyish. Which isn't a bad thing FYI. I was really into it. My dad however said I looked like a hobo and my brother called me a tramp. Boys just don't get it clearly. There is that saying isn't there? 'There are women who dress for men, women who dress for other women, and women who dress for themselves'. I am in the last two categories, without question.

I've loved the boyfriend jean trend for months now but because of the many rips and cropped leg design I was planning to wait until it was much warmer before unveiling these bad boys. However, I couldn't not wear them a day longer. Teaming them with a chunky jumper and leather jacket meant that I was pretty well defended from the cold. Adding my trusty black biker boots was the perfect way to complete this tough and boyish get-up. While the whole look is very much about being laid-back and thrown together, it's important to add accessorise to show that there was some form of planning and thought put into it. For me, it was about adding a skinny leopard print belt (which was both cute and very practical), a little gold necklace and a structured handbag.
