A few months ago I had to seriously stop myself from going straight for the men’s section when I go shopping…lol. I did okay for a bit, but then I kinda peeked one time and found some cool pieces at H&M men’s. Being a tall girl with plenty boobs and thighs who also likes a more downtown-y feel when it comes to clothing, sometimes the men’s section is the BEST place to find staples like sweatshirts whose sleeves actually go beyond my wrists, pants and shorts that hang the way I want them to, and actual boyfriend-fitting jackets. But because I might have a body more fitting for bodycon this and bodycon that (which is okay occasionally but I prefer to be more downtown), sometimes too much menswear can stifle my womanly parts. So to make sure there’s balance in my outfits (because you always need balance), I’ll mix in a girly piece.
And this is what I did by pairing this H&M basic crop tank with these Bermuda-ish white textured shorts from H&M men’s. The wide pockets on these shorts can be a noooooo with hips and thighs like mine, but I balanced out the volume with the tank and added in a pair of tall gladiator sandals.
