Usually I wear black or camo pants/shorts with band shirts or plain black shirts.
But the last few weeks I've been really cruising for a nice new short-sleeved button up shirt, since I like how the one I have looks now lol But trying to find a nice one that's not like 30 bucks is hard Oh Zellers, why did you have to close/get bought out by an American company |

I'm usually in suit and tie for work purposes, prefer french cuff shirts and lovely cufflinks. but I love western boots with a pointed toe and not to high heel. Old Gringo, Tony Lama and Corrals fit nicely for any occasion (my opinion only). I don't have enough boots, but I have enough, you know?

I'm still too "girly" to wear a tie or men's dress shoes.

I have to wear a tie this weekend. Yes, on a weekend.
And it's only because of Sparkle that I agreed to it. I just want that on the record. |

I think we make the mistake here and in society of focusing on clothing as "men's clothes" or "women's clothes." Butches and/or transguys wearing "men's clothes" and femmes wearing "women's clothes." Truth is we can wear whatever we want and still identify as we want and those identities will still be legitimate to ourselves and supportive community. We should be more queer than that, damnit! Whoever wears the clothes owns them, imo.
If you want to wear ties or dress shoes from the "men's department" you shouldn't worry about whether you're "girly" or if the clothes are "manly" or something is whatever. If you like it and want to wear it you should wear it at least to try and if you're a butch woman wearing it, then maybe it's not men's clothes but butch woman clothes...or just Steph clothes |

I love my ripped up hollister jeans! Sometimes AE. A good white tee with a beater underneath it (notice I didn't put the first part of that word in there, so don't judge me) I really dig plaid! So I wear a lot of plaid shorts. Hoodies, airwalks, converse and adidas. On another note if im just chillin around the house its a beater, and lounge pants/ball shorts depending on my mood. My favorite outfit to wear is.. a pair of super holy hollister pants, my black converse, a white tee and a black and white plaid button up over that.. my studded belt with 2 pistols on it, and yes. I sag quite nicely. Spritz some smell good on and thats it!

It's fall folks. I thought I'd give this a nudge for those who wear/appreciate menswear.
A couple of sites I've recently added to my favorites are Put this on & Valet mag Time to go through the closets and seasonal wear, it doesn't take much to freshen things up. A new tie or pocket square can change a look a lot. Maybe add a vintage sweater or treat yourself to some new boots. What are you doing with your look these days? |

I love fashion, primarily smart casual. Increasingly, in addition to my ongoing love of all things Cavalli, I'm finding that I am attracted to designs and styles that are very traditional but with a very contemporary edge.
Holland Esquire, a small and not long-formed London company provides great designs and has become a favourite of mine over the past 18 months or so: www.hollandesquire.com/ Also, very pricey, but I really love Ermenegildo Zegna clothing. Ermenegildo Zenga is an older Italian company and famous for its high quality woolen products. In my opinion, their clothing is the sort of clothing that, when you put it on, you start to feel a bit more attractive even on those days when you're not feeling that way inside yourself: www.zegna.com/ I hate wearing suits so increasingly I wear smart casual in the office, except for when meeting external clients. In those instances, I still wear a (tieless) suit. My favourite suits for the office are by a traditional London fashion house called Gieves & Hawkes: www.gievesandhawkes.com/ |

It's getting cooler so I get to wear the vintage, hand tailored waistc'ts I bought last winter.
I love smart. Next week I'm invited to a 'hen night' (I think you lot call them bachelorette parties) and I shall be suiting and booting, vintage hatting and looking fiiiine. It'll be fun for me escorting a group of hetero girls. I'm very good at holding hair back when too much alcohol has been consumed |

I really think that you all need to take pics of yourselves in some of these clothes that you're describing and post them in a "butch fashion" gallery.
And if the femmes here start referring to that gallery as "butch eye candy," you won't seriously mind, will you? |

Uh oh, nope, we can't do that in a thread. Photos of ourselves that is.*From the TOS: "Do NOT use threads on our forums to post your personal photos."* I can't imagine that it would be a problem though if some of the folks wanted to put pictures in their own gallery and then put a post in here directing to it. The free membership allows for 1-2 photos, and paid has more, maybe a good excuse to support the site more financially if you can.
Within the context of conversation we can link to images if I am not mistaken, and videos as well. I would really like to see people put up ideas they would like to share for how we can develop whatever look it is we want to cultivate. I love looking at the highbrow links for ideas on what I might like to do. The reality is that I then take the ideas and find a way to replicate it, or at least get close, on a budget. There are a lot of different looks out there and everyone has their own taste. From bad boi biker, to cowboy, to athlete, to Vegas baby! Tell us what look you like to rock. I'll be back later with some thoughts of my own on the subject. Right now I have some ironing to do... |

Okay, I just tested it. You can link to an individual pic in your gallery using the "insert link" in the reply editor.
At the risk of seriously embarrassing myself, I put a pic of myself in my current attire here. No guarantee how long it will be there, but I want to encourage others. Tell us what you are wearing and any relevant info about it. Weekend morning, oxford button down $10 on sale boys uniform shirt back-to-school sale (these are surprisingly sturdy and the sleeves are the right length), thrift store sweater about $2, Timex weekender watch $28 with loads of interchangeable colored NATO bands at $10ea. Costco reading glasses, 'cause I'm old, $5. I though maybe what we really wear, daily, in addition to the fancy stuff might be helpful. Somebody else better do this too, or I'm going to feel awfully silly... |
