They are indeed masculine looking. I have a pair of shoes in a very similar style to those and when I wear them with pants my wife says they look very similar to cowboy boots.

I have a messenger style bag that I carry around with me often, and yes it is packed very heavy with "must have" items ... graphic novels, gaming books, and an ipod.

Keen observation. I feel most fashion designers have always been a bit out of touch with the real world when it comes to designing for real women with curves. I guess that works out pretty good for us though.

Some women's flat can really work. There are very few men's style slip on shoes that I like, so it was natural for me to look into women's flats. I have a pair of mary jane style flats that I love very much. They have held up great and have always been very comfortable. The only problem for me when buying flats is often the price of the ones I like. It's much harder for me to spend on them when I could get a pair with a heel for nearly the same price, and most of the time when I would want to wear flats my tennis shoes are the best option anyways. I mostly wear my flats around the house these days as I need something to protect my sheer tights from getting runs from the tile grout, and I like how easy they are to slip on and off and how light they are compared to tennis shoes.

As I don't really understand why society puts restrictions on clothing choice due to gender, I tend to want to wear whatever I like and think looks good on me. I do own quite a few pairs of women's jeans and trousers, and find that like other posters have commented women's jeans just seem to fit so much better. I've experimented with skirts often and have generally liked the look they give. My wife prefers kilts on me over skirts, and I like kilts as well, but they are generally quite expensive and rather hot for the weather here in Florida. Recently I've gotten interested in corsets, partially because I've started to have some lower back pains and they seem to help immensely with that, and also because I like the way they give me some shape in the waist. After years of interest I've started to truly experiment with dresses, trying to see if I can pull them off while still looking masculine. There is just something about dresses that has always fascinated me, so I'm hoping I can find a way to implement them into my wardrobe. Unfortunately I feel that my wife prefers me to have a stronger masculine image and isn't really too comfortable with my freestyle sense of fashion, but I'm hoping she will come around. Thus far she has been supportive of me in all of my endeavors. So I guess I'm open to wearing anything that can be functional for a man's body.

I wear sheer tights very often, and find them to be very comfortable. If I am wearing high heels or other shoes from the women's section, skirts / kilts, or capris I always wear sheer hosiery with them. Personally I think its a bit too hot here in Florida for opaque tights, and the few times I've tried to wear stockings I've just found them very uncomfortable and unflattering.
