Women In Menswear – Kara

While Kara’s look may be classified as conservative, it is certainly outside the norm. Complete with a bow tie, a men’s button up, and a cardigan, one might think she raided her boyfriend’s closet or simply had enough with the girly stuff.

While the weather may be unbearably cold, Kyle still maintains a keen sense of style in this business casual look. A pale blue button down oxford compliments his light complexion, while dark denim jeans and a grey wool coat are well tailored to his tall and slender build. A pair of leather derbies, a wool scarf, and a black [...]

Minnesota Style in a New York Fashion
