LADYBOY

 TODAY WE R GOING TO TALK ABOUT BOYYYZZZ <3___<3 BUT NOT RLY

I think that boys that dress well are veryyy attractive.  Not all people feel the same, but, that’s good because then I can have all of the well-dressed men to myself.   For me, fashion and personal style are an important (not crucial, by any means) commonality that I think makes a guy more compatible for me--- basically-- that we like the same shit, and that he won’t judge me for squawking on and on about a pair of liquid gold nike air max that I will never actually own. But alas, they are still men, and why am I still talking about them right now!

The thing about being attracted to something is that, more often than not, you find the desire to try and emulate whatever that attraction is in yourself.  A very long story, short, I like dressing like a stylish boy because I'm attracted to that.

Q: WHAT IS A STYLISH BOY THO?

A: What is a stylish girl even? Give me a break

I think stylish people, no matter gender, look like they just kinda have their shit together.  Even if they have a "messy look" you can tell that they know exactly what they are doing, they playin' with you.  It's mostly about being confident in what you are wearing...confidence is sexy.  Confident boys in nice clothes r sexy.

OOPS WE AREN'T TALKING ABOUT ME RIGHT NOW//

I grew up inheriting a lot of hand-me-downs from my two older brothers.  I was such a little tomboy, I was always much more excited when they grew out of something of theirs so i could have it than getting a cute new dress.  I also just thought my brothers were cool (being older=cool) so getting something of their's meant I was the coolest.

I feel very confident when I'm dressed like a dude, and you should, too:

The nice thing about clothes and styling looks is that you can choose to balance or off-set a look.  While I enjoy my dude clothes, I like to subtley preach my femininity to the choir.  A face of makeup and the fact I (sort of) have hips and a chest let's me be something different.   Let's hope the boys agree.

So, just to be clear-- Who runs the world?

WINNING THE GAME W/O PLAYIN'

To begin let me make excuses as to why my posting has been prolonged:

a. I have no free time because I started rewatching 30 Rock on Netflix from the beginning
b. I don't wear anything but grey and black and white and I wear the same 3-5 outfits to work
c. I thought my camera lens was in need of repair but it was just reeeally dusty
d. I'm LAZY
e. all of the above

correct answer: E. ALL OF THE ABOVE, FOLKS

Moving onward and forward to the topic of today. Let's focus on a few important things going on in my life like how do I survive winter and not look like I'm just roaming around in clothes fit for hibernating? Another important factor to discuss today is "How to Be a Baller"/"How to Win the Game"

As you may recognize, I'm introducing a well seasoned player from previous blog posting experiences today- this sequin jersey.  I decided to not be stupid just wearing the tank top jersey and finally put some damn clothes on...since it's apparently December already. And to put more clothes on means that beautiful thing called layering.

 LAYERING IS REALLY HARD THOUGH, EVEN THOUGH THEY SAY IT'S EASY.

Am I right? My thought process stemmed from "okay, a turtleneck under this? no? *shudders*" to "i only have one cardigan and i wear it too much, people definitely notice"

GOD SAVE THE LONG SLEEVE BUTTON DOWN:

swish for the win

The button down dresses up the more casual qualities of a sportswear piece and add some complexity to a before now, pretty basic idea. 

Also on a side note I saw this photo (below) on the internet a few weeks ago and wanted to be as cool as her:

(she's so much better as being cool though, let's be honest)

To complete the look, I didn't want to overwhelm an already dazzling "star athlete" of a jersey so black jeans were the obvious choice.  Footwear, however, had to provide some stability and interest to the look.  And lucky for me and my lack of blogging lately I have, indeed, gained a new member in my closet: SOME HEFTY ASS TIMBERLANDS~

and I guess I'll end on that note.

xx your favorite goon, Alex
