Yes and No: How to update the wardrobe at the expense of men
Borrowing things from the men's wardrobe is an idea, honestly, not new. More and more girls are following men's brands, and Mr. Porter come at least his female version. By the opening of the men's exhibition Pitti Uomo Wonderzine understands what things you can take from a friend and buy in the men's departments, and which - is not worth it.
Its OK
1
Shirt
Thinking about a girl in a man's shirt was played up many times in the shootings and in the films. And in fact, a men's shirt is almost the same universal thing as a white T-shirt. It can be worn with jeans and trousers, and in summer with shorts, fully tucked in or firing off one edge. Some of the shirts can even replace a short dress, but only for short girls and not without the aid of a strap.

Sneakers and running shoes
The biggest challenge for girls with 41 foot sizes is finding the right shoes. And if with shoes and ballet shoes everything is not easy, then sneakers and running shoes can be found in men's shoe departments. Simple sneakers like Converse or Vans are almost the same as women’s.

T-shirt
Men's T-shirts - salvation for those who love the free cut and things-oversayz. Disclaimer: if you have a female size XS, a men's T-shirt size L is best left only as a nightgown.

Parka
The most versatile and warm winter clothes that you can easily pick up in men's stores. The safest option for our winter is to try to find the original M-65 or M-51 small-sized fishtail park on eBay. In order not to look like her brother in it, it is better not to combine it with coarse shoes and try to do without a backpack.
5
Sweatshirt
Sometimes it seems that the right sweatshirts can be found only in men's stores, which is what everyone uses. Blank models are combined with almost everything - and with dresses, and jeans. And yet, it should not be hanging in a bag, so that completely dimensionless sweatshirts should be left to the garden.
6
Perfume
It is unlikely that someone will be surprised to turn around after you because of the fact that you use men's fragrance. True, the cresce of heavy masculine fragrances is still to be avoided - in the summer this rule also works for men.
It's not ok
1
Shirts with short sleeves
Such shirts on girls most often look bad: their sleeves will almost certainly sway when moving. In rare cases of hopelessness, you can try to tuck them. But, truth be told, you better not.
2
Suspender
Braces are an unfairly undervalued detail of a man’s wardrobe. They hold pants much better than a belt. When you see a friend in trousers somewhere on the hips (and not at the waist, as they should be), I want to remind him of their existence. On girls, suspenders almost always look a little theatrical. If you really want, it is better to buy them not in men's stores, but a unisex model, for example, like from American Apparel.
3
Polo
Even a female polo model is not easy to choose - you need the right length (to the waist, since polo is not tucked in) and a suitable collar (not too big and not too small). If a polo suits your friend, it is unlikely to suit you. But the female model of polo has an alternative - a dress-polo, like those worn by the heroine Gwyneth Paltrow in the movie "The Tennenbaum Family."
4
Blazer
It is one thing to throw a men's blazer on the shoulders after an evening summer walk, and another to buy one for yourself in the men's section. Choose a blazer - a whole science, the most important thing - his shoulders should coincide with yours. Can you boast a man's shoulder width? And good.
5
Men's cosmetics
No additional comments are needed here - men's cosmetics are developed taking into account the specifics of men's skin. After one application of a man's face cream, nothing irreparable will happen to you, but we would not advise you to experiment.
