THE "B" WORD, PART I

In honor of the Autumn/Winter 2012 menswear collections that just graced runways around the world, I thought I'd write about masculine inspired looks for women.  Fashion outlets everywhere are bombarding women with images of androgynous models and clothes to match, as well as, snapshots of celebrities and socialites frolicking strutting around wearing the pants.  Some of you may be wracking your brains thinking, "How can I best achieve 'the look'?" without dare I say, appearing butch too masculine.  Yeah, that's right...the (sometimes) feared, only whispered "b" word.  SHUT.YOUR.MOUTH.

Let's start with basics and later this week, I'll bring you a few masculine inspired looks that won't get you mistakenly called, 'sir'.

Why not go for the subtle approach?  I say borrow, but thou shalt not steal.
