Walmart has become one of my favorite places to shop for clothes. Because, let’s be honest most of these clothes quality is all the same. Over the years they has worked hard to update their clothes sections to compete with fast fashion brands. When it comes to clothes, fast fashion is not always quality. You might be able to find a good deal on clothes, but if they’re not of good quality, you’re going to have a really tough time. That’s why it’s important to be careful when shopping for clothes. You don’t want to end up with something that’s going to fall apart or look terrible after just a few wearings.At least at Walmart you may find a quality item and its going to be convenient and cheap. Chances are you are already going there for something! You can find everything you need, all in one place, and at…
Being a masculine presenting woman, finding the best-fitting clothing can be challenging. Over time I have learned what works for me. Learning your body type and what fits your body type is important in finding clothes. As a woman who wears men’s clothing, you have to account for a different body shape than men. Some women don’t have this problem but others do. A great way to supplement better-fitting clothes is to use someone who alters clothing.
Since Big Rona has been here my days are filled with either shorts or joggers and always a t-shirt. To be completely honest, I have never been an eager to get dressed up person. I actually love joggers, sweat pants, shorts and t-shirts, it has been my happy fashion place. Yet, here I am during the Rona eager to get dressed, even if it is just the grocery store. I find myself putting on jeans to do the simplest of tasks. Although, I love my casual wear, it has been worn out! Since Big Rona has been visiting I have had a couple times when I absolutely needed to get dressed, and as excited as I am to put on a real outfit I wanted to maintain some of my casual relax wear. I had a couple reasons to get dressed; a funeral and work training, despite being specific events…
When Crocs first dropped I was like “these shoes are trasssshhhhhh,” they looked like the shoes the people doing the River Dance would wear. Then, people, you know who wore them out!!!

This is a good look for work and easy to pull off. If you buy men’s pants and jackets whether you are male or female, I recommend finding a good cheap tailor. If your city has a K&G they always keep a good tailor on hand who is reasonable.

Typically, in work environments most masculine presenting or men opt for the easy go to polo’s, button downs and pants but don’t forget to show your personality with colors. I often wear dope socks with cool prints, colors and styles but you can make your clothes pop by wearing bold and daring colors. I will have a post soon about colors that I will link here. The style I wore on this day was simple but bold.

So many things affect finding a style that looks right on you. Honey, let me tell you, this has always been a struggle for me. I’ve always wanted to have a certain look yet, never could figure out how to pull it off. What I learned is that my struggle was bigger than what I wanted but was more about how I felt. I’m not insecure but I’m fasho self conscious. Being a Black woman who is a masculine presenting lesbian (stud *inserts eye roll), I constantly thought about how something looks on me, would this look good, or even how would people perceive me.I work in an environment that is easily 95% (and I’m being generous) white and in the south, if not this job, any other environment here. I often wondered if what I wear is too masculine would people feel a way about how I look. I wondered…
