This is my typical work wear but today, I decided to create a boy meets girl look by pairing formal trousers/pants with a leather jacket. If you like, I mixed a very tailored feminine pants / trousers with a very rugged and boyish leather jacket hence boy meets girl.
FIrstly, let me apologise for not facing the camera directly on this look. The weather took a different turn as it started raining and extremely windy so we had to shoot at an angle where we can at least capture the look quickly. Photography and wind is one of the “Blogger dilemma” we face, but hey, the job has to be done.
For my look today, I paired my “work” tapered pants/trousers with a striped shirt. Because I was going for a boy meets girl look, I decided to add a feminine piece to the look by wearing that oversized bow tie. And to tie the look together, I wore the leather jacket which toughens the look because the silk shirt is delicate. A pair of patent leather kitten heels with oversized buckle finished my look.
Talking about the oversized bow tie and oversized buckle, I wanted to use each one to compliment the other and I think I managed to. What do you think?
Did you notice my peach nail polish? It is an added pop of colour to this look which is also perfect for Spring / Summer. I love it!
This look is perfect for a dressed down day like casual Fridays. You know days when you don’t have any formal meetings to attend, yes those days. And if on the day you show up to work like this you are called in for a formal meeting, just loose the jacket, tuck in your shirt neatly and you are good to go.
So talking about work wear, tell me in the comments what your typical work wear is. Are you the boy meets girl kind of wearer or you are miss prim and proper? Would love to hear from you.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I truly hope you enjoyed the styling. Wishing you a fantastic day today and thank God its Friday.
Much Love, Mojisola.

Loving this look Mojisola! It’s the perfect combination of androgyny. The leather jacket gives the ensemble a tough look, but adding the elegant top softens the look. Loving those shoes too!! Hope you’re enjoying your weekend! Xx

I’m happy that I can pretty much wear whatever I want to work but at the same time that means I end up going more casual than not.
This is a great outfit, I love the pairing with a leather jacket, perfect! Just like you ❤❤

Thank you for reading Carina.

When the two met, they made you. Fashion play done right. This look has glimpses of masculinity but your femininity can’t be masked. This look is so runway.
