Elegant Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Yesterday I bought a beautiful leather skirt in a thrift store. It's wide, pleated, quite long and so soft and well-fitting that I had to get it! Next, I visited a leatherwear shop I've been keen on for five years or so, and experimented with fashion a bit, including my newest acquisition and a pair of 4" blade heel ankle boots with square toes. I decided to have a little photoshoot at night, so I did my make-up, used some hair gel [let's revise metrosexual men's fashion from the beginnings of 21st century, yay!], dressed up, set all the equipment up and shot, shot, shot...

Bubba136 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Great Look....Magazine quality photographs! Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thighbootguy Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Great look and it is very polished. The hat is a real touch of class but the pocket watch is fantastic. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffB Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Excellent look there, Elegant! You certainly do have a fine sense of style, both in your fashion and in the pictures you took. Bravo! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Where do you go dressed up like that, Elegant? (I hope you do go "somewhere" because the look is way too much to be wasted just remaining in your house.) Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.

Elegant Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 Thank you all. I'm going to dress up like this at concerts, parties, exhibitions - artistic events in general, and some happenings too . What is good for a goose, can be good for any gender!

Mae Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Your make-up is also tastefully done....not too much. I really matches your outfits too. Very nicely done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnsofheels Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Nice job Elegant! The combination is really nice looking and the quality appears to be excellent. I am wondering if you could describe "steampunk aesthetic" ? I am not up on my terminology but curious as to how that fits into your look? Keep up the good work on your style, you are making a difference for the rest of us. Mtnsofheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elegant Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Basically, steampunk is a modern retro-futuristic literary and artistic movement, based on Victorian aesthetics, lifestyle and technology [steam engines, clockworks, extensive use of wood and brass, exploration of unknown regions, entertainment such as theatre, tea parties etc.]. It seems to have become quite popular recently. Oh, by the way, I'll post my almost entire collection of shoes [excl. two pairs]. Take a look . What is good for a goose, can be good for any gender!

ShockQueen Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I rather like the steampunk aesthetic, having been a fan of such art as Jin Wicked and the Girl Genius comics. You pull it off nicely!

Maximilian Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 A very polished look Elegant! The 3rd photo is especially fashion magazine quality. Bravo. I also like the makeup. How long has it been since you've started wearing makeup? In the 1st photo you look like a Gestapo agent with lipstick All that's missing is a Fedora hat and a Ruger lol.

Elegant Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Well, I don't think they wore leather skirts, make-up, hair hel and high heel boots . What is good for a goose, can be good for any gender! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximilian Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Well, I don't think they wore leather skirts, make-up, hair hel and high heel boots . True enough. Maybe some did but if they were caught they were probably shot lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
