Fashion Friday: Menswear Inspired Fashion

Gabriella Wilde. street style | Keep the Glamour | BeStayBeautiful


Recently, many female celebrities have been rocking menswear inspired outfits. It is a trend I think everyone should try once. It works great for the office, school, or just everyday. Here are some examples of menswear inspired outfits along with some tips and tricks to getting the look just right.

Tip to steal: When wearing a three piece suit, try to pick fitted items. A fitted and slightly cropped suit jacket will look more flattering than an oversized one which will only dwarf your figure. Many designers make fitted women's dress pants, and these are the best and most flattering options.

Tip to steal: Try wearing menswear in light or pastel colours. If you have chosen a more structured and less fitted piece, try it in a more feminine hue. Since it's spring (fingers crossed) pastel colours are all the rage.

Tip to steal: Pairing a dress shirt with shorts and loafers is a great casual androgynous summer outfit. It creates a very classic and timeless shape. Choosing neutral colours works best for this look. You could even wear an actual men's button up or belt. Instead of loafers you could choose heels to give a more feminine touch.
I hope this post was interesting and helpful; maybe you'll try a menswear inspired outfit this spring, I know I shall. I think this a great way to add elegance and simplicity to you style. Most of these pieces can also be mixed and matched with other outfits which makes them versatile and worth the investment.

Summer Lace OOTD and Natural Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! Today's OOTD is my favourite summer look. Lace, loose waves, and a natural makeup look. It was nice and warm today so I brought out one of my favourite dresses. It is from American Eagle, and was given to me by one of my friends a few years ago. I like that it is strapless as when I am outside enjoying the sunshine I don't have to worry about awkward tan lines! I went with a natural and glowing makeup look today, and I even filmed it for you! You can watch the video below. It is inspired by the gorgeous Gigi Hadid. xx Jess Instagram: jessicakinnari
