Period. 889662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Mochi, look almost as good as Bowie? That's high praise and&nbsp;mighty fine to my mind. &nbsp;I'll take that any day.&nbsp;<br /><br />Dianthus, I'm very envious! I had tickets (unbelievable tickets)&nbsp;to the last concert round, but had to miss it for a family emergency. &nbsp;DH went with a friend&nbsp;in my place and report that it was phenomenal. And that he could see David's pores. I think that was too&nbsp;cruel, but I've somehow found it in my heart to forgive DH. &nbsp;I do think Bowie should take pity on me and tour one last time, though.&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-androgyny-the-thin-white-duke#post-889652 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 00:29:40 +0000 Mochi 889652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ "The return of the Thin White Duke...."<br /><br />Ahhhh.&nbsp;<br /><br />You look ALMOST as good as Bowie.

Period. 889645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hair elastics? That is brilliant! I have burly arms, so the hair elastics wouldn't work for me, but I bet that I could rig something with some elastic stitched or knotted into a bigger loop.

Period. 889633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, Tanya! I would love to scrunch the sleeves, but the blouse is silk and absolutely refuses to scrunch. My shirt and I went head to head on that recently and I lost. Completely. Utterly. Unwilling to admit defeat, I just wore it for the rest of the day with the cuffs unbuttoned. &nbsp;My shirt and I have agreed to never speak of it again.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-androgyny-the-thin-white-duke#post-889625 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 00:10:17 +0000 Tanya 889625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the outfit! &nbsp;I agree about skipping the belt. &nbsp;I might try pushing up/scrunching the blouse sleeves too. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-androgyny-the-thin-white-duke#post-889611 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:48:46 +0000 K.

Period. 889584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So, today I was looking at a little Bowie eye candy: &nbsp;<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/verymuchso/the-ultimate-david-bowie-spank-bank">http://www.buzzfeed.com/verymu.....spank-bank</a><br /><br />(Yes, my friends in Bow-awesome-ity, you are welcome.)&nbsp;<br /><br />Ahhhh, the gorgeous androgyny. I've always loved Bowie's glorious masculine-with-a-hint-of-feminine looks.&nbsp;In tribute, I thought I'd take a stab at something a little Thin White Duke today. Sadly, I have no vest, but I made do.&nbsp;<br /><br />This combines&nbsp;a little less body con shirt with my oversized, slouchy trousers. Black doesn't photograph details well, but believe me, these pants are big. DH practically cringes when he sees them. People at work ask me if I've lost even more weight. They are loose. Just like Iggy. (See? Wasn't that clever? I managed to get both Bowie and Iggy in the same post? Joy!) &nbsp;I'm too girly girl to go with a masculine&nbsp;oxford, so I drug out my highest pointiest heels to wear with it.&nbsp;<br /><br />Overall, this outfit feels okay. &nbsp;I wasn't sure I'd wear it again until I photographed it. When I did, I realized that the belt is best lost. So, with the belt out, I think I'll repeat it. &nbsp;I'm always looking to improve, though. &nbsp;Any thoughts on refining this look?&nbsp;<br /><br /><br />
