Androgynous fashion
Androgynous outfits are quite popular amongst many International fashion Bloggers both Male and Female, even in India you can see fashion Bloggers trying this style out one piece at a time. Which is exactly what I did, I went real gentle and casual with the whole look and paired up my ripped boyfriend denims (gender neutral) with a crisp white button down formal shirt and layered it up with a loose geometric clothing (fringe shrug)!
Winter wardrobe
To keep the casual vibe going and add up a touch of feminity, I added a layered charm necklace and a dark maroon lipstick helped me to stick to the gothic punk look. This look is a mixture of sporty casual and edges on gothic androgynous. I left my hair open and my current semi-straight semi-wavy hair looked just perfect with this outfit!
