Anatomy of an Outfit: Menswear shorts

Anatomy of an outfit: Menswear Shorts

Anatomy of an outfit: Menswear Shorts

This entire outfit is about contradictions and compromise:
Exposed leg / covered arms
Conservative cut top / sheer material
Sheer material / flat chest
Pleated menswear shorts / rugged belt
Rugged belt / metallic heels

And to think when I first threw this on I thought it was simple. Plain. Just nice.

Top: Urban Outfitters (recent $5 clearance sale)
Bra: Urban Outfitters
Shorts: Target (from a few years ago)
Belt: Target (again, years ago)
Shoes: Target (I know, I'm a huge fan of Target)
Watch: Casio

well m'dear, you look stunning as per usual! you make me want to cut my hair short and go blonde again!! i think we have very similar hair type! anyways, you look great!

You're so darling. And that shirt is plain amazing. It all works perfect together - especially the shorts and shoes. I'm pretty sure I would gladly raid your closet. And then be horribly disappointed because our bodies are totally opposite in every way. Ha!

I like this new outfit series you're doing! The photos rock.

Also, you are seriously inspiring me to buy a lacy, meant-to-be-seen bra.

Also also, I would like you to know that I lost a day's work checking out http://bigbangstudio.blogspot.com at your recommendation (no regrets, what a lovely blog).

In conclusion: thanks!

Not to take anything from your outfit posts, cause the clothes are always perfect. And how can I not love your hair, but I really can't get over how great that blackboard looks in a photo. I love it.

I like the whole outfit, but the belt with the shorts is my favorite part of it.

Yea Jeremy!

You crack me up!
