Male and Female Dapper Dandy...

I, for one love incorporating elements of the Dandy or Dapper Dandy into the clothing that I wear. I find myself loving both the men's and women's style for various reasons. Such as the wonderful boater hats and newsboy caps the suspenders with nods to men's wear. From the women some of the skirts and the shoes oh yes honey the shoes. Did you know that Disney has a whole day and events for people who like to dress as a Dandy?

I just wanted to share a portion of what influences my satirical choices.

Plus I am a visual person I love the pictures so do to my maximal per usual their are a boatload of visual stimuli.

All are welcome per usual.

Character! That's one thing that jumps at me from every WIW, inspiration post and visual board you create.

It makes perfect sense to me that adding masculine touches can make you feel womanly.

These are wonderful inspiration photos, Ladywone. Thanks for sharing them. You look fantastic in 13! Love your dapper/dandy look! I admired the hat in your other outfit ("pajama pants"), on its own--and I like how it fits with this outfit so beautifully.

Suz

I am so on board with this, it isn't even funny. I used to have one of those flat brimmed hats and LOVED it. You look amazing in #13. Love the inspirational pics, male and female.
