This Is a Man’s World

I challenged myself to take two menswear-inspired pieces and make them work, together. Voila! It’s not such a man’s world when you add the right accessories…
I salvaged this silk mustard oxford from the men’s section of my local thrift. In the process of styling it, the bottom buttons flew off! Hence, the need to tie it up. I think here it looks even better than it did before…
 Currently trying to find ways to incorporate these lovelies into the Winter rotation as well. They’re quite possibly my favorite buy of the season. I posted about them HERE. Got rave reviews from the folks at MBenz Fashion Week after wearing these…

  1. I just started following your blog after a link about your thoughts on lookbook and such and I cannot agree more! I must say, I prefer you so much more than half of the girls on lookbook.. all they do is take their tiny frame and throw on a tshirt and jeans + awkward pose accentuating their skeletal size + highly edited photography, and they recieve 23749 hypes.

    I love those shoes! And im so envious of the colour combination with your skin tone! Perfect!

  2. Lovely Combo Mustard Pop! Mary Jane Pumps…I have them but all Black. Do they fit comfortable to walk in. I wish they have half sizes mine’s are a bit tight but can pull it off! Yes imagine an H&M !!!!!!!! now in Florida 🙂 tomorrow 🙂 x Ari

  3. i love this look, mens button up shirts are great to wear, they’re so comfy and (ahem) we look better in them than they do! 😛 i love the bright color too! and those shoes are amazing, i keep drooling over them!

    oh and thanks for following my blog, that was so nice of you! you have a great blog!

  4. Aaah, I love those shoes – I remember eyeing them on F21 when they came out, but they look even better now I see them on. And that shirt is gorgeous, too – one of my favourite colours right now.

  5. Chrstina you’re always on point. I love how you threw in the floral mary janes with the mustard shirt. It really works. This is a look that is super chic. Love It! You def inspire me to challenge my wardrobe.
