Man, Oh Man! Truly Borrowed from the Boys

Plenty of fashion blogs and magazines do spreads about borrowing from the boys. But what if we take it one step further and actually shop in the men's section?

While I tend to skip the pants section, and men's shoes in a size 6 are almost impossible to find to substitute for a lady's size 8, tees, shirts and jackets are fair game Layer up for chilly summer nights, lose a few shirts for the hot summer days.

Check out this look inspired by Billy Reid's Spring 2011 men's line. (P.S. Billy does a chic country-rock line for women as well!) These shorts from Chloe and shoes from Marc by Marc keep the look in the proper gender! But this awesome man-bag from Levis is awesome.

This look is truly stolen from the men.

Baptise Viry 'Social Signs' - It's a Man's World

French designer Baptise Viry takes inspiration from men's accessories and transforms them for women.

When you think of all the iconic images of ladies in their men's clothes, nothing is sexier than a woman walking around in her lover's white button down shirt. Though, these accessories come pretty close.

Baptise Viry, formerly employed by the renowned Hermes, thankfully branched out on his own with collection. With colors inspired from an old sepia tone photo, the vintage style pieces take men's wear for women to new raw and punk-seductive style --which is a far cry from the stuffy Birkin bag.  But, the collection's title, "Social Signs" does suggest that the brass metals and tanned leather are from a time when these materials meant status.
