How To: Work the Brogues

So if you're wondering what the brogues are, they look something like the 'oxfords'. They're actually about the same thing. Oxfords sound better but brogues sound new to me, so I'm using this term. HEHE.

You get them heeled, or flat.




Here are some items you can pair them with;

What you do is you can fold the pants up a little higher so your legs would be exposed a little. They'll look something like the boyfriend jeans. But boyfriend jeans gives you a more slouchy look. And you may wear it with a lacy top like the one below.
OR
With a blazer over a loose t-shirt. Tuck the T in so it wouldn't cover up your structured pants. You want to show of the shape of your body. Not hide it.



For a bag, I chose an Alexa Chung inspired bag by Mulberry. I think this bag just polishes the look.
This look is more to the conservative side, so you can wear it to work. If you were younger, you could spice it up with some chunky jewelery or lose the blazer or opt for a different bag. Mix and match is the way to go, beauties!

Have fun playing dress-up! :)
