In the midst of winter I sometimes find it very difficult to get all dressed up in girly dresses, skirts, tights and heels. I feel more like bundling up in wooly sweaters and tailored pants. That is why the “boyfriend” trend just might be right for you. You know, the “boyfriend jean”, the “boyfriend shirt”, or “boyfriend sweater.” They certainly know how to dress comfortably. Well, I believe this trend is a slight transition from the Annie Hall knock off we saw last summer. No more vest and ties. Now it’s about tailored wool slacks, coats, and masculine accessories. I have to say the boys have it so good in winter! But joining the boys club can still be über chic.
This winter I am loving vintage wool coats, especially camel and cream colors. Thick wool lined pants look great with a thick leather belt and workman type shoes. I’ve also seen golf style shoes. Think undercover reporter or Diane Keeton. Satchel bags or currier style bags are practical. Men’s leather watches or old pocket watches on a chain necklace are great too. I think you’ll find this look a perfect weekend cozy comfort.
