Well Dressed Effortlessly

Well Dressed Effortlessly by brimalotke on Polyvore

As per usual my love and black and white patterns dominates this post. I chose to use a mix of patterns because I love the way the end result looks, not quite chaotic because it feels like it should go together, but slightly off because they don't "match." After the background I chose 4 pictures that are from magazine shoots claiming to portray androgynous style. While there is a more drastic form of androgynous style, the pictures I chose are simple and straight to the essence of it: masculine and feminine characteristics emerging into one ensemble. One of the easiest ways to try this is by wearing more masculine styled pieces but retain a feminine touch with the way you do your hair and makeup, or throw on some heels (which despite men going through a phase in fashion wearing heels, thank Louis XIV & the French, heels are more associated with women and the feminine touch of an outfit). Overall I chose the pictures because they're simple, straight to the point, and the models look amazing and strong. Lastly, the wording chosen is because I just liked the way it sounds and how the script is flowly, it brings a more feminine touch to the overall more masculine effect of the photos and geometric backgrounds.
