Trendscape: Masculine Overtones

There’s a difference between being a tomboy and dressing in chic outfits with a masculine touch. You can still maintain your girliness while rocking these rough pieces by accessorizing with feminine earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and handbags. Marc Jacobs’s Spring collection at Fashion Week (as seen in PaperMag) was an overly dramatic interpretation of masculine women’s gear. Style Bytes notes that the latest masculine look is sexier and more laid back, but don’t try stealing your boyfriend’s duds to pull off this look.
