There's always some fun to be had with a menswear inspired look. A bit of quirky, whimsy, unexpected. The crop top, for example. In order to avoid looking too "borrowed from the boys", I threw in this Rachel Pally crop top to add some femininity and sex appeal to the outfit. Regardless of feeling boyish or sexy, I stepped out of the apartment feeling like a bit of a badass, wearing the pants.

On a shoe trend note, platform flats are all the rage for fall. The moment I spotted these Grenson loafers, I knew I had to have them. You can pair them with a blazer and printed pant like above, with a structured mini and comfy sweater, or with a boyfriend jean and slim tee. No matter which way you choose, you'll be stepping out ahead.
