In Suspenders & A Tie





Tie and suspenders, Jonny's
Blouse, Thrifted
1950's Skirt
Seychelles Shoes
Purse from my Mom

I was so inspired by the pictures in my menswear post that I had to come up with an outfit of my own! This is the first of many menswear inspired outfits I'll be wearing this fall. Hugs!

PS: Please forgive the badly tied tie! I'm a lot shorter than jonny so it was hard to tie without it being too long, hehe!

I always want to dress "in drag", too, but I have never found a good way to wear suspenders.... pairing them with the pencil skirt is clearly the way to go! You look SO CUTE in this outfit!!!!!! (-: Sasha

Don't you look darling! This looks suits you so well, too. Literally suits you! I just made a pun and didn't even mean to. Ha!

Love the suspenders. I've been thinking of trying to sew a pinafore/suspenders skirt lately...Also, that purse is rad!

Oh I love this outfit! I've been flirting with braces (suspenders) and shirts but haven't managed to find any ties I liked ... or skirts for that matter!

Your shoes are perfect for that outfit, you look fab!

I clicked on your post because in the UK 'suspenders' means your garters and I thought perhaps this was some kind of Cabaret homage!

It looks really cute though - I had a skirt with some suspenders ('braces'), will have to dig it out!

Love this outfit!!! There is something rather snazzy (as my grandfather would have said ;) about a tie and suspenders--it's quite dashing in a way! ;) I have been off and on checking the thrift shops for pieces like this, but really must redouble my efforts now!

You pull off the menswear look so well! I feel like you need to go be studious somewhere in this outfit. For some reasons it's really making me think of strolling around on a college campus, or hiding away in the library doing research.
