Dare to be different?


Androgyny is the fleek right now. I always love to rummage in my brothers closets and try on their clothes. I never had a sister to play dress up with so it's no surprise I grew up with a little rough on the edges tom boy streak. Coco Chanel from what I gathered was one of the First Ladies to delve into the androgynous world of fashion. Defying all odds in a world that was all corsets and roses at the time, she'll wear her pants and ride horses, loose fitting clothes when everyone was cinching in waists, point is that she dared to be different, in a world where women didn't really work, and where fashion was all boobs and tulle. Yes I watched coco before Chanel. Lol
I love fashion, it lets you express yourself on a different level, more than words. To be honest, I was to attend a wedding and I had absolutely nothing to wear. Those who know me know that Ankara and I don't really get along. So any short notice weddings are usually an pain in the butt for me. Luckily my brothers were home this xmas and my twin has this annoying love for kaftans and natives. When he wore this to church that Sunday, I knew I had to have it. Does anyone get that feeling of being distinguished, fresh and fleek when they see a guy in a well tailored two peice like this. I needed to have me a taste of that. And obviously I am not the only one who's basking in the gorgeousness of this androgynous trend, fashion blogger zinkata (@zinkata1 on Instagram) and dear friend of mine Tope Mautin (@iammautin also on Instagram) joined in the fun.
