I WORE MY HUSBAND'S CLOTHING FOR 3 DAYS STRAIGHT….and let me tell you, THIS. WAS. A #FASHION MOMENT. FOR. THE. BOOKS. Style swap, outfit challenge, try on haul, HERE WE GO!
You know those high-fashion influencers who post incredibly inspiring pictures of themselves in their boyfriends' white button downs? Well…I took this to the extreme. As you know, I’m all about trying new things and challenging myself in fun ways…so what better way to challenge my style and fashion sense than with a closet swap with my husband?
Over the past few years, I’ve created a ton of videos where I change up my style…you can check them out on Refinery29 ’s YouTube channel. My normal day-to-day style is pretty simple. I love bold colors and patterns, but you can usually find me in leggings and a sports bra throughout the workweek. On the weekends, if I’m going out with friends in New York City, or on a date night with Michael, I like to elevate my look by putting on a dress or jeans paired with a pretty top. I wear a lot of form-fitting clothing, so I knew styling Michael’s ginormous clothing would be tough and might look strange at first…but I was up for the challenge!
On day 1, I took a little tour of Michael’s closet and tried on his jeans…true boyfriend (husband) jeans! I took one of his belts that had endless loops, which allowed me to belt up the pants tight enough so that they didn’t fall down on my waist.
Day 2 included a few outfit changes! Over a year ago, I produced a 5 days of capsule wardrobe video. So I took what I learned there and applied it to help me craft an outfit with Michael's clothes…yes, I took my husband's shirt and turned it into a skirt! Watch this video to learn how to turn any shirt into a skirt... it's one of my favorite style hacks! Then it was time for my next outfit... this one had to be functional and stretchy for yoga! I grabbed his compression shorts (lol) and went to do yoga on the rooftop. After wrapping up my workout, I traded his compression shorts for a pair of khakis and styled it with a white shirt. I put his blazer over my shoulders and I was ready to go out for dinner in NYC wearing my husband’s clothing.
Day 3 was the day my inner fashionista came out. On this day, I tried on Michael's suits. Talk about a power suit…I felt GOOD! A big part of this style experiment and fashion challenge was to see how people on the streets of New York City would react. Would they stare? Or would they tell me they loved my outfit and ask where I got my baggy jeans from??? By the end of the 3-day experiment, I was reminded of just how impactful the clothes you put on everyday can be and how they can transform the way you feel and take on the day. Another big lesson I learned from this closet swap was that you can pretty much style anything to look decent. Oh, and NOBODY in New York City notices anything.
Have you tried the pillow case dress TikTok challenge? It's just so interesting to me that if you style something correctly for your body type, no one even bats an eye!
