Cross Dressing

Androgynous has steadily become one of my favorite trends. Partly because it is a picture of effortless cool, and largely because it is boyfriend-wear: and I find women in their men's clothes so incredibly sexy. Always present in fashion week, menswear evolves subtly every year. This year saw some of my favorites: casual boyish outfits, structure paired with sheer and soft fabric, basic with punches of color and feminine touches, and sleeveless jacket dresses. Yummy. Let's get on with the pictures.

Baring a bra to match their suit or simply going commando was pretty popular on the runways.

I reckon having nothing underneath the power suit leaves a woman feeling powerful indeed -and clandestinely provocative.

I would just love to have one of these sleeveless blazer dresses to wear to the office. *sigh...*

Sealed with a Bow

I just Adore how a bow can affect a different charm to an outfit, depending on its size, garment, and placement. The last, in particular, is exceptional. It's so sophisticated; a dream to wear. mmm...
