How to wear masculine clothes and still look like a lady

At my age, if I embrace the masculine look too much, it stops looking cute and I just look like a middle age woman that has lost her mirror and wants to dressed comfortably. I can say this because I am *gulp* middle aged

How to wear masculine clothes and still look like a lady

1. Pick clothing that is more like sexy 20/30 year old guy not a teenage boy’s wardrobe and not your dad’s either. Think business shirts after a long day in the office. Crumpled and comfortable
2. Roll up baggy loose fitting clothes to show off feminine ankles and wrists. Skin is sexy
3. If you are wear baggy on top and baggy on the bottom, find a way to create some shape. Tuck in a corner of your shirt, throw on a belt, or my favourite, tie a shirt around your waist
4. Put effort into your hair and makeup, the juxtaposition of the masculine clothes and feminine hair or makeup is striking
5. Undo a button or two and let a lacy bra peek out. Nothing screams I’m a woman like ‘accidentally’ flaunting your assets
6. Wear simple jewellery. I find statement necklaces work against it, and I love a simple, delicate necklace or a slightly masculine watch
7. Add a statement shoe, this could be something like brogues, a stiletto or a wedge.
8. Wear your favourite scent. No-one could mistake you for a bloke when you smell like a combination of roses, jasmine and the night sky.
9. Remember, under the masculine clothes, you are still a hot women. Move those hips, flick the hair and remember to sit like a lady :). Hahaha *burp*
