Adam is the New Eve!

I have always been intrigued by fashion’s tendency to gravitate towards androgyny. How on earth does someone pull off wearing men’s clothes? At first, I thought it was going to be another fashion fad that would fade away as soon as the next Vogue issue came out. However, androgyny is still alive and breathing, managing to survive another catwalk appearance.

Rummage through your boyfriend’s wardrobe and look for unique unisex finds such as oversized blazers and jackets. If you’re looking for a versatile androgynous piece, perhaps all you need to do is take a look into his closet. You can borrow that perfectly comfortable white shirt your guy always wears.
Put a new spin on men’s shirts by wearing them with feminine pieces. A man’s shirt tends to have a loose fit on you, perfect for tucking into your high-waist shorts. If you don’t want to reveal your Thanksgiving weight (darn that turkey!), you can always wear super sexy shorts and keep the androgynous tee tucked out. Tone down the male appeal by donning a multi-string necklace and a thin belt. Lastly, wear your ensemble with ankle-cut boots or cut-out heels and voila! You have successfully completed Androgyny 101.

Tone down an androgynous look by wearing ultra-feminine pieces.

Androgynous pieces are perfect for recession-proof fashion. When you reach out for your boyfriend’s blazer instead of that new fringed dress in Bloomingdale’s, you are keeping your money in your pocket. Androgynous fashion is simply perfect for the fashionista who also wants to be a frugalista.
