Just One of the Boys..



Greetings, girlies!

The weather here has been exquisite to say the least. Spring has sprung here in the dirty jersey, and it's definitely a refreshing alternative to the blizzards that have been running rampant.


But enough about the weather, let's cut to the chase!

For as long as I can remember, I've been obsessed with the masculine meets feminine look. Just like the blizzards around here, this style seems to be running rampant and I'm loving it. Trends like t-shirt dresses, and boyfriend jeans are a part of every fashionista's wardrobe this season. But no one seems to do it better than Marc Jacobs. In his Spring/Summer 2010 Ready to Wear collection every look blew me away:


But this one in particular tickled my fancy..


Naughty, naughty, Marc Jacobs.

This olive twill jacket with the organza ruffle, pretty much sums up my whole life.
I set out to re-create this look with whatever was at my disposal, which means it's not an exact replica but it gets the job done. I paired this Forever 21 two-tone bib tunic with a Divided for H&M brown puff-sleeved leather jacket.
For the complete effect, I zipped up the jacket so that only a peek of the embellished bib was showing. The femininity of the skirt on the tunic and the masculine jacket really create a wonderfully pulled together look. Pair it up with black skinny jeans, and a nude pump and you are ready to take on the world, sister!
This look compliments Natalie's gorgeous spring make-up, as well ;]



This being the first of my entries, I'd like to leave you with a bit of inspiration. I encourage you to be creative and daring with your clothes. Despite what the majority says, it's better to have a personal style than no style at all.

Wishing you all Love and Lipstick,

Amanda
