This is a Man's World

I have a weird style. I go between menswear and really feminine dresses. Sometimes I combine the two. So, naturally, I love the tumblr Wearing the Pants. I don't go total menswear... I literally own zero pairs of pants... ZERO. I own a pair of jeans (one pair) and that's it. But, here are some of my favorite styles. I'd swap a lot of the pants with jeans or a high-waisted skirt. But that's just ME! Patty. That's me.

How To Dress Like A Man

The other day, I was mistaken for a lesbian.

No, really.

The conversation went a little like:

HIM

 I think you and I should get really drunk and dmamdsaasdjkl

{i couldn't really hear}

ME

(slightly offended b/c i thought he was insinuating we do stuff)

WHAT?!

HIM

I think you and I should get drunk and have deep conversations about improv and life and women.

ME

Yeah, that'd be... wait... women? Do you think I'm a lesbian?

HIM

You're not?

So, that happened. I laughed about it, because I do think it's funny. I'm not. I like men too much! But if I were born a lesbian, I'd be proud of it! But, I do really love menswear. I love button down gingham shirts, watches, oxfords, briefcases... so, here's a line-up of menswear inspired things I like. To appease that masculine side of me.

Earth Meets Sky brogue from Modcloth.

boyshirt with khaki skirt.

 (literally called boy shirt) both from j.crew.

or chambray and jeans.
