Men's Wear

This 21 Day Challenge is certainly clipping along pretty fast.  I don't know what I am going to do when it is over.  How will I be able to get dressed in the mornings without knowing what I am supposed to wear??


Today's challenge is Men's Wear.  Now, I did the whole Men's Wear look back when it was really big in the 70's.  My philosophy is usually... if I wore that trend when I was younger, I won't do it again.  Men's Wear Does NOT fall into that category for me.  It's a great look that is timeless!
I actually wore this outfit yesterday and I can't tell you how many people stopped me and complimented me on the look. 
 I was amazed! 
I was worried that I coming off a little more Facts Of Life than Men's Wear,
 but I guess it all came together.
I am wearing my linen pants for the 3rd time in this challenge, so my 3 outfit remix requirement has been fulfilled.
Do you ever rock the Men's Wear look? 
 What are your favorite items you use to pull the look off??

linen trousers-GAP
linen shirt-J.Crew
vest/belt-Loft
tie-husband's closet
oxfords-Aldo
bracelet-local boutique
watch-Shockwave

Very Annie Hall-ish.  Which, on you, is cute.

I sooo wish I had done this challenge!  You are having way to much fun and looking way to fabulous.

The Facts of Life reference made me giggle.  I guess that dates us.  The linen trousers are amazing; I love gap pants.

You are so Blair! But I agree that it's more Annie Hall than Facts of Life. Very cute, Miss Brett!

xo,

I have never tried the menswear look nor sported a tie but now I wish I had because you look phenomenal! I I love how versatile those linen trousers are and how accessories can completely change the look!

Loving that tie! I'm all over that stripped shirt as well. Great outfit!

Menswear is by far my favorite style and always will be. I tend to go for loafers or oxfords, blazers, men's button up shirts, and bow ties. So cute!
