Okay, so I’ve been trying to figure out this whole “casual masculine outfits for females” thing, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a journey.
Start with the Basics
First off, I started by raiding my closet and my boyfriend’s too, looking for anything that screamed “oversized” or “comfy.” I found a bunch of his old T-shirts, some baggy jeans, and a couple of button-down shirts that were way too big for him anyway. I even snatched some loose sweatshirts, graphic tees with all sorts of designs on them.
Experimenting with Tops
I started with the tops. I tried on one of those oversized T-shirts with a simple design on it—nothing too flashy, just a basic logo. I wore it with the baggy jeans I found. I gotta say, it felt pretty good. Super relaxed and not restrictive at all. I also experimented with one of the button-down shirts. I wore it open over the T-shirt, like a light jacket.
Finding the Right Jeans
Jeans were a bit trickier. I tried on a few pairs, and some were just too baggy—like, I was swimming in them. But then I found a pair of his old boyfriend jeans that fit just right. They were loose but still had some shape to them, you know? I rolled up the cuffs a bit to give them a more casual look. I also experimented with some straight-fit jeans for a different look.
Layering
Layering was where things got fun. I put on one of his camouflage jackets over a simple graphic tee and the boyfriend jeans. That was a cool combination. Then I tried a sweatshirt over a button-down shirt with the collar sticking out. It added a nice touch. I also played around with wearing a T-shirt under a button-down, leaving it unbuttoned.
Trying Skirts and Dresses
I also wanted to see if I could mix in some more traditionally “feminine” pieces, so I tried a simple skirt with one of the oversized T-shirts. I tucked in the T-shirt a bit in the front to give it some shape. I also tried a plain dress with a button-down shirt tied around my waist. It was an interesting mix, for sure.
Accessories
Accessories were the last step. I didn’t want to go overboard, so I kept it simple. I added a basic belt to the jeans to break up the look a bit. I also tried on a couple of scarves—one plain and one with a simple pattern. They added a bit of flair without being too much. I also put on some of his plain sneakers, and they worked perfectly.
Final Thoughts
In the end, I found a few outfits that I really liked. Here are some of the combinations that worked best for me:
- Oversized T-shirt with boyfriend jeans and sneakers.
- Button-down shirt (worn open) over a graphic tee, with straight-fit jeans and a belt.
- Camo jacket, graphic tee, boyfriend jeans, sneakers.
- Sweatshirt over a button-down shirt (collar out), with baggy jeans.
- Simple skirt with an oversized T-shirt (tucked in a bit) and sneakers.
It was a fun experiment, and I learned a lot about mixing and matching different styles. It’s all about finding what feels good and looks good on you. And hey, borrowing from the guys’ section of your closet (or your boyfriend’s wardrobe) can actually open up a whole new world of outfit possibilities!
