To be honest, I wasn’t really too sure what to expect. Would I get reprimanded, sent home, or even fired? I can’t pretend that I didn’t worry about those possibilities (especially with a child on the way, so I need all the money I can get, ha), but I really felt that the look itself was solid and well put together, and at the end of the day I really felt that I needed to just do it ….

And nothing happened. I received nothing but compliments on the look from many of my friends, and that was that. I’m really happy about that, because I do not wear the things I do to seek attention. Ideally, I don’t want my sartorial decisions to be any more out of place in situations or in people’s minds than anyone else in the room, though I realistically know that at this point in time it often is. Skirts and dresses for men won’t become as commonplace or accepted as women wearing pants or other traditionally men’s styles unless we do actually just embrace it and start wearing it out, which is why I do what I do. Speaking plainly, the end goal is for skirts, dresses, tights, heels, and other currently female-gendered clothing to be normal sartorial options in a man’s wardrobe. I feel like I pulled that off here.

Unf. Have I mentioned how attractive I find the combination of man(lyperson)+ladies ‘power dressing’ outfits? Because I do. Also Michael Spookshow’s ethos is, as always, admirable.
