			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Since Yves Saint Laurent  popularized androgyny in women’s fashion decades ago, stealing your boyfriend&#8217;s blazer has become <em>the</em> thing to do.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="line-height: 12px;">It seems every season, designers bring baggy pants, waistcoats and tuxedo jackets down the runway ,in new shapes and combinations.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This season’s mix of masculinity and feminine sexiness is more funky and edgy than the femme fatale look, seeing sharp shoulders, over-sized vests, and long blazers delivered to the catwalk once more.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1048" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="mensclub2" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/mensclub2-480x379.jpg" alt="mensclub2" width="440" height="379" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But where do we go when  we can&#8217;t afford Wang, Jacobs or McQueen?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Why your boyfriends wardrobe of course!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1027" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-323_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-323_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-323_480x720" width="440" height="629" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">First out of the closet is, undoubtedly this seasons key piece, the trusted  <strong>Boyfriend Blazer. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Take a look at last weeks blog  <a href="http://www.thestylediaries.com/" target="_blank"><strong>&#8216;The Boyfriend Blazer&#8221;</strong></a>  for inspiration </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1026" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-322_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-322_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-322_480x720" width="440" height="632" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Next up, I dug out my boyfriends only pair of  &#8217;<strong>smart&#8217;  suit trousers</strong>. Sexy. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Roll the bottoms up to show a bit of ankle and team with heels.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1034" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-395_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-395_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-395_480x720" width="440" height="659" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1032" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-387_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-387_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-387_480x720" width="440" height="659" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The <strong>oversized shirt</strong> appears to be everywhere at the moment. Mostly because it is so versatile and can be worn in a million different ways.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Belted, tucked in, left loose, you can&#8217;t really go wrong. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1016" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-272_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-272_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-272_480x720" width="440" height="485" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1036" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-423_480x320" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-423_480x320.jpg" alt="picture-423_480x320" width="440" height="320" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">If you want the shirt to be worn as  a dress, try to find a shirt that&#8217;s big enough to be long, but that still fits reasonably well around the shoulders. If the shirt is long but fitted  it can be crisper, while a more oversized shirt will sit better if in a lighter fabric.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1012" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-253_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-253_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-253_480x720" width="440" height="659" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Roll up the sleeves. The hands and wrists are quite a feminine body-part and therefore balance out the masculinity of the oversized shirt</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1038" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-431_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-431_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-431_480x720" width="440" height="627" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>The Boyfriend Jumpe</strong><strong>r</strong> can be incredibly sexy. with a belt, bare legs and heels or tucked into skirt or trousers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A simple and effortless look.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1022" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-296_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-296_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-296_480x720" width="440" height="659" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1024" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-299_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-299_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-299_480x720" width="440" height="659" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1031" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-382_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-382_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-382_480x720" width="440" height="720" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p> <br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1029" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-380_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-380_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-380_480x720" width="440" height="505" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">White t-shirts, oversized, t-shirts with a rock-band on, everything works here. Just make sure it’s not too big. Roll up the sleeves a little bit for that cool factor.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1019" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-280_480x720" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-280_480x720.jpg" alt="picture-280_480x720" width="440" height="720" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1005" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="picture-235_480x7201" src="http://www.thestylediaries.com/wp-content/uploads/picture-235_480x7201.jpg" alt="picture-235_480x7201" width="440" height="578" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When accessorising, don&#8217;t forget that a belt can completely change the look. For some other ideas, try layers of bangles, a vintage neck-scarf, or men&#8217;s pocket handkerchief. Some tousled bed-hair or a simple pony-tail will set off this look perfectly.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;">Be creative and you’ll see that there’s a lot fun in the mans wardrobe.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Everything that looks stylish on you is just to grab. There’s no rules here, be playful and have fun!</p>
