Tomboy Lovin'

When asked the question, "Katharine Hepburn vs. Audrey Hepburn," I always go for team Katharine. I remember when I learned that she was one of the first actresses to wear pants on screen, and I thought, "I like this woman! She has guts!" Now, don't get me wrong. I wear dresses and I have my girly moments, but in general, it's more of a costume "dress up" thing for me. My CORE style and what I wear on a daily basis is more relaxed.

I've always had a harder time embracing my curves and femininity. Instead, I always wish I didn't have boobs, and I'm glad I don't have hips. I just like the tomboy all-American look. I have no idea why, but I really align myself with that style. Even in home decor, you will not find much femininity, and instead a lot of androgyny.

And now that you know a little bit about me, my style, and my favorite old Hollywood film star, I'd love to share some style inspiration of people and designers that are also inspired by this look too.

What about you? Are you a girly girl or a tomboy?

Classic Button-Up Shirt

blueshirtI would say that almost every person reading this blog either currently has a classic button-up shirt in their closet or has had one in the past. Other than needing them the day of prom for you up-do's, a crisp blue or white button-up shirt is a preppy staple for your closet. Because of my shape I don't wear them very often, but it doesn't lessen my love for the preppy, all-American go-to item. So, I've created my ideal day look and Friday night look with the beloved collared shirt. Day on the left, night on the right.
