I buy a lot of things in men section in second hands: blazers, shirts, t-shirts, trousers... I found that they have better shapes and materials than clothes for women. I wear them as oversize pieces and I love them so much! Recommend visiting men sections very much.
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing! I have always been a bit jealous when someone says they dress in men’s section. It sounds so cool! Unfortunately I am too short for it, and the smallest size is just too long for me 🤷♀️
@@wonderwardrobe I think it's because you're living and shopping in the Europe where men are mostly towering taller than the rest of the world. I've had great luck finding secondhand menswear made in Japan or Hongkong while travelling in South East Asia. The proportions are very female-friendly - not to mention Japanese fabrics are often very high quality even when they are synthetic. I would recommend Japanese denims, flannel shirts, Levi's trucker jackets, corduroy blazers and classic trench coats as versatile pieces for an androgynous wardrobe.
@Gazpacho Suave Bangkok and Sai Gon both have nice secondhand shops and secondhand markets. You can search about them on Facebook. In Sai Gon (Ho Chi Minh city), I'd recommend Mayhem Sai Gon, a very hip shop.
Same, apart from very few like Isabel Marrant, most clothes for women, imo, are not made for real active women. Impractical,too much frills and extra fabric or lack of, that only suit a certain body types. I prefer shopping into the men's section clean cuts,plain design, then I mix and match fabrics, proportions then I add accessories from brooch to turban.
Vanessa Kountul I feel the same, and even though I’m always attracted to that style, when I put them on, the result it’s not the same and I don’t like the way I look
I think short curvy women can still wear tomboy but proportion has to be considered...nothing is sexier to me than a curvy woman in slightly masculine clothes: she oozes confidence in her beauty..the contrast of curves with macho tailoring can be quite scintillating. Sometimes I borrow my husband’s ties or suspenders to wear with an appropriate jacket, etc. DONT GIVE UP just because you are curvy. I’m curvy too and my man thinks I look intriguing.
It's my style. I always didn't like too feminine, too girly, to perfect looks. I always want to have some musculine element in the outfit or something to break the rules, something imperfect . I dont feel comfortable in too girly outfits. I tried to wear girly dresses or skirts, etc, but i understood, that it doesn't work for me. I have a lot of blazers, mens' shirts, trousers, jeans in my wardrobe. Most of them were bought in secondhand and vintage stores. I also wear dresses , but i mix them with something musculine.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing! I like to get inspiration from vintage online shop The Level. They sell men’s or menswear inspired jackets, trousers, and have a very nice minimalist styling.
I find it really interesting that you refer to feminine looks as the "perfect" ones. It is usually menswear that is expected to be perfectly styled and tailored to accomodate for lack of design choices.
I am a young woman, and I really struggle with figuring out my personal style. I never understood why I don't look good or feel confident in the same girl-ish, fast-fashion clothes like my friends do. This video helped me put my finger on why, so thank you so much!
I think of this as a minimalist style - clean, simple, classic, but also can be edgy, especially if the color scheme is kept neutral and accessories are used strategically. I love Eileen Fisher and Elizabeth Suzann for this "tomboy" style. Also Rick Owens. I also look at a lot of fashion from the 80s and 90s for inspiration, like Georgio Armani and Calvin Klein.
This is so me, yet I never described my style as tomboy before. Love it. I even dressed as Amelia Earhart for Halloween this year -- it was so easy to pull off with items from my wardrobe!
I dress like a boy a lot because it makes me feel tougher and cooler hahah and also because I'm able to move freely without the restrictions of tight or non-stretchy women's clothes edit 2/3/2022: so i found out that im actually a boy
Sarah Linh Tran is my champion of the tomboy dressing. I worship every single of her creations for the Lemaire's women line. Clever, unique and artistic.
Thanks for another great video Daria! I never thought of the word "tomboy" to describe my style but this is exactly how I dress most of the time. I use funky graphic t's and unique jewelry to make my outfits and blazers a little more edgy and not too corporate looking!
I love androgynous looks and your examples you showed were great along with yours at the end! Thank you for sharing and this will give me some fun new ideas for this Winter!
This video is a revelation for me. I’ve been trying to „find“ my style for many years. The outfits you are showing are exactly what I’ve been wearing all my life. I feel so relieved that you had the words for it because no other style ever seemed to be congruent with me.
Thank you for this video! The Tomboy style is often done very casually, which is not the direction I want to go all the time. Your ideas helped me out a lot. :) P.S.: Love your earrings
Thank you Daria, for helping me understand this style. I've always known this was the style for me, but it is never praised for how strong and elegant it is. I feel the romantic, feminine, girly styles of fashion have always been glorified and showcased as "better" in media. Yet this video has made me feel proud to call this my own style.
That's the style I am going for, but with warm, autumn colors. My personal favorites are an oversize beige wool coat, a checkered tweed khaki blazer, an oversize pistachio green silk button-up shirt and some plain white sneakers. I'd love to see a spring/summer version of this wardrobe!
This video sums up my style, the one I'm always attracted to and what feels most comfortable. Didn't know it had a name! This is SO SO helpful, now I just need to take this capsule and rethink it in warm colours (maybe this could be an idea for you next video). Thank you, Daria!
Thanks! So glad it was helpful 🤗 Yes, try it out! If you need help or want to learn how to create a cohesive colour palette, you can take the Wonder Wardrobe course. It’s full of information, examples and inspiration.
Thanks for another great video. I am so glad to see lots of ladies commenting about loving this too. I've always worn lots of these items but sometimes struggle w/ the balance of the cuts on my petite pear shape. I'm not a leggy Hepburn type
My style is also tomboy but not the classic, elegant one :p It's more like a modern grunge with creepers, chains, holes in my jeans, flannels etc. I am not a teen anymore so I am trying to make it a little calmer but can't give it up, it's how I feel like me.
I got a lot of outgrown clothes from my older brother when I was little so I am used to tomboy style. Haha... I especially love leather biker jacket, and I prefer the simplicity of men's jackets and sweaters to women's style much more.
Well I wear male chinos and wool sweaters, female blazers, shirts and jeans. I found many male clothes are of better quality, more natural fabrics. Also I am tall and female trousers and sleeves are usually too short for me. I use my bike daily so skirts are impractical or even impossible to wear.
Thank you Daria! I also had trouble naming my style. I am classic tomboy which became so clear with your description. Everything became so clear, even the women I have most admired. Thank you again.
Thanks for the tips! The tomboy look has been my style since then. I am thin and girly looks in my opinion, requires some curves which I don't have. I grew comfortable with the masculine-feminine style and I hope we can all be confident in our own styles! Love this video! 💞
This is very similar to my personal style, I actually think it can be very sexy, for instance I myself wear all tomboy outfit but with a transparent shirt and a lace bra underneath, or accentuate a feminine bodyshape by wearing a belt on my waist over the oversized blazer and buy taylored pants, but high waisted ones and tuck my shirt in.
The items in this style I wear most often are vests and wool sweaters. My husband was recently giving away a couple sweaters and a vest that he didn't wear anymore, and said, "you know, you would probably like these". He was right.. They are perfect!
I wasn't totally convinced until you showed me the mix and matches with the wardrobes. I was surprised with how versatile it could become with a few select pieces :) thank you for this video!
I love this style. But, the word tomboy always makes me think of sporty girls in jeans and hoodies, I want to dress like a lady gentleman, like Katharine Hepburn. Like someone else said here, I too wear a lot of second hand shop items, both for men and women, usually while or black, and mostly in summer to avoid shorts and t-shirts. They feel so lush and elegant and classic. For example my favourite summer pants are simple white 3/4 pants for women from a second hand shop, but they are 5 sizes too big so on me they look like low rise culottes. I also follow a channel called Gentleman's Gazette and try to get creative with their men's style tips through women's clothes that fit my body (I'm size 32-34, no way I could pull off wearing men's clothes other than as oversized "statement" items). I like plain t-shirts too but only if it's cold enough to wear a suit jacket on top. And yessss, structured, classic looking handbags!
I love this style, most of my wardrobe consists of this style. Thank you for this video. Your channel is my favourite; it's unique and beautifully done.
Love this style which I call Annie Hall style. As for dresses I had a problem to wear them as I always used to say men don’t wear dresses 😂 but as we know it’s not true any more I wear them. What I do is wear them often on pants. Or with chunky boots, sneakers, leather jackets. The only difference vs Daria proposals is accessories . I love to exaggerate with them. Fancy big jewelry it’s a must for me. I like also ties, I make shopping often in men’s sections. I have many men’s blazers. And quality matters of course!
Wonderful! I am a full figure lady and this is my exact style! I already own most of these items with the addition of lots of scarves and also a few statement necklaces since I want to draw the persons eye upwards. I didn’t know until your video that my style had a name. And you’re correct, it isn’t talked about enough! Ive worn clothes like this since I was a teen.
How nice! I am glad you liked the video and found something new in it! It’s smart that you use accessories to redirect attention to your face. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this marvellous video...an absolute joy. Most of my wardrobe over the last 30 years has come from the men’s dept...be they new or second hand. I find the materials and cut far superior especially for my 6 foot frame..
This is totally my style! I love the video! but i live in Brazil and is summer almost all year long! Can you give some options or tips for this kind of climate? Thanks!
I've always dressed comfortably, like a tomboy. They could never put me in a dress. And I'm a feminine woman with kids and grandkids. My style has always been skinny jeans or ponte pants, tunics or t-shirts, and one all-purpose cardigan. No purse, one pair of all black sneakers, and one pair of edgy black ankle boots. All items are black, grey, or a pop of color in the t-shirts. I own less than twenty articles of clothing, and my entire wardrobe fits in a carry-on bag. Freedom!
I love to shop for shirts in the men section, I like the cuts better and it's my go to item in spring and summer over a pair of jeans ! I also think that men's wear accessories like baker boy caps and fedora hats are gorgeous.
In my 20s most of my shorts were from the men's section but as I aged, my breast size has increased making it very uncomfortable to wear button downs (gaping).😔
When women's clothes were too girly and flimsy for my taste (70's), I loved men's clothes. I finally had to admit that my curves and 36DDD's just didn't work with those clothes. Shirts were either too big (to accommodate my chest) or the buttons gaped (or popped open). I remembered liking the sophisticated European look of men who wore pullovers and turtlenecks under their blazers. So I tried it--I switched to mock-turtlenecks and V-necks and rarely ever wore button downs again. They're vastly superior to cotton button-downs: no ironing, no buttons to lose or pop open or gape, no cuffs to roll up, shows my curves a little, free-er movement (knit), and very comfy. They have a certain elegant simplicity and sensuality as well.
Thank you for making this video! I have had "tomboy" style since I was a little girl. A lot of my wardrobe is from the men's section too just because I prefer those shapes and sizes. My go-to outfit for colder weather is: Chunky knit sweater with a pair of cropped black trousers and a pair of suede sneakers or boots. Pair it with a leather jacket or wool trench and it's perfect. xx
Until I watched this video, I didn’t know both the name of my style and that I definitely belong to Tomboy style. The pieces I have been wearing and the way I match them are totally like the ones explained in the video and thanks a million for making me more aware of my style and I discovered your channel not long ago tbh you are giving such precious info that no book can cover. You are amazing 💙Speaking of one of my fav tomboy piece which is not mentioned in the video is mom jeans. I think it is so versatile to match them especially with blazers and oxfords.
I was wondering the other day if you would ever do a wardrobe that actually reflected my personal style lol. Definitely keep the menswear-inspired wardrobes coming, I'll watch all of them!!
Well, apparently some of my wardrobe "whispers" tomboy. Maybe because I live in the country. I give you a big thank you for this video. You gave me ideas for outfits I hadn't thought of, using pieces I own (and never would have put together). I like the outfit at 3:39, 5:20, 5:16 and got the pieces covered. I only watched this video out of curiosity. You do great work, thank you.
Funny now that I’ve found myself fitting in a category, but this is it! Daria your explanation is so on point. A subtle touch of “femininity” is something I try with the style, but I always get lazy and just end up wearing the same old (but favorite) necklace and earrings.
Why funny? I think it’s a pretty cool style! :) oh well, don’t force “femininity” too much, just add some little things from time to time like a red lip, small heel or silk blouse 👌
Daria Andronescu Thanks for your advice! It means a lot to me. I do wear silk shirt/blouses, ankle boots, kitten heels, etc. By the way, I said “funny” not about the style, which is fantastic, but about the fact that now I belong to a group (I never took personality test, for example).
Love it! I just found your videos and this is my style. Jeans here is a rule. Wonder wardrobe is fantastic. I don´t like to buy tons of pieces to make things happen. Getting to know all the combinations you do is a real solution for me. Thank you!
I would describe my style as Tomboy with a touch of fantasy mainly in the shoes and warm colours. I love all those beautiful material like wool and cashmere in my pull-overs, trousers and blazers. Personally I have taupe Chelsea boots, pointy low cowboy boots (burgundy) and beige sneakers for the fall. :) Thanks for the video
Haha. First I thought that I am rather in a classic style than in a tomboys; but the example shows my wardrobe. So I think I am mostly dressed as tomboy. Thanks 🤗
But you’re right as well. The wardrobe I showed here has a Classic style with casual elements. It’s always a classic style but the complementary elements can be taken from any other style. Tomboy can be more sexy, or punk or boho or creative... depends on your personal style.
Yes, I thought this seemed very classic....so now I'm a little confused between the difference between 'tomboy' and 'classic'. I'm sure I'm somehow a bit of both but now I just don't get the difference. Also, maybe it's because I don't work in a professional setting or maybe because I'm In Canada but our version of 'tomboy' is much more masculine...baggy, ripped boyfriend jeans, flannel plaid button ups, Blundstone boots. Or big oversized sweatshirts or 'grandpa' cardigans. It's much more practical for everyday wear in the winter.
Daria, thank you! This style type and wardrobe really spoke to me. Oxfords and trousers are wardrobe staples for me, coupled with slightly cropped sweaters or jackets. And hats!
Hi, I live in Brasil where the weather is extremely hot, can you please help me adaptat this wordrobe to heat of 47° celcius, the weather is always difficult. Can you help? thanks anyways :) love the video.
I love the Tomboy style. I have a very, very casual Tomboy style though.Black and white Converse are my go to. Boyfriend jeans " men's tank undershirts in dark colors, the classic Kurt Cobain cardigan w leggings, graphic tees, etc. I have short, red, hair, but I always have a smoky eye, just to keep it girly.
Many thanks for very informative video! I like this style very much. Are there some special recommendations for women with hourglas or pear body type who would like to wear the tomboy outfits? Thanks!
Great video! Question: I LOVE Tomboy style but I have an hourglass shape so it feels harder to pull off the Tomboy style. Would you agree? Any suggestion?
Contrast between harder materials and draping, and cut off the neckline (and possibly arms in t- shirts) the lower neckline is more flattering but doesn’t get to busty. Leather or pleather and for suits avoid dubbelbreasted, look for one or three buttons, smoking cut on the lapels is really flattering. Schals are great to give more vertical lines also don’t be afraid of shoulderpads. Avoid rectangels or square s in the clothing. Example what I wore for an award show ( Nope, wasn’t nominated for anything) smoking jacket in black, gold pleated cami, dark grey/ black jeans skinnies, tall boots and a really wide and big old gold coloured egyptianlooking turquoise necklace in blue and green and an orange lipstick. So about 2/3 masculine but the last third was hella feminine adjust this to your proportion ( might depend on the day). Oh and boots are your friend as are leather backpacks and bigger manbags as well as eyeliner or kajal OR a daring lip. To get more focus on your face and whatever aspect you want to highlight ... but not the whole hog visible Or just go nude but well kept. Really Big jewellry and one or poss 2 or Very dainty avoid in between the proportions for some reason are thrown off. For good example of how to tomboy dressing with a curvy hourglass body check Helen Mirren out .
kysa knopkina =) ... To be honest, took a while to understand the bodytype and the Style. Especially after body changes as I got older as well as having been pregnant .what many people aren’t aware of is that even you don’t give birth having been pregnant whatever the end result changes the body breasts, hips etc including the bone structure in the pelvis and the hormones in the body to redistribute things. One thing I really would have liked information about in school. Also that you can change colours that suit you all through your life so every five years or so it’s time to take photos of yourself ( you normally can’t see it as well in a mirror) for some reason and check the colours, the Style, the haircut and see if it fits you as you are or if it’s time to do an update of either a couple of things or grand overhaul. Also the question should always be posed ... happened to me in a an earlier relationship and scared the bejesus out of me have I become boring? And if I have what can I do about it! Memento mori !
@@annarehbinder7540 same here! I already commented above about my Kibbie's bodyshape discovery, that changed my way of shopping and first of all accepting myself as is and finding clothing peaces that flatter my look and elevate my nature beauty.
I love that style but I always prefer pairing it with either unisex (tennis shoes, sneaker) or feminine shoes and boots with a medium heel. I just don't like Oxfords and loafers at all 😅🌹
I live in a very cold place. I like to wear a blazer but in the winter need to also wear another coat over it. Any tips on layering blazers and coats in different seasons? Especially colder months.
Question: I love the outfits you’ve shown for women, but can you do a similar style video for tween tomboys. My 11 yr old granddaughter has an apple shape, doesn’t want to wear anything too feminine, pink, dresses, or that looks like something her mom would wear. Can you help?
My style is quite similar in some ways but I guess it's a mix ! I wear pants and oxfords all the time but I like to define my waist and wear feminine blouses. I describe my style as classy, retro and cute (or at least that's what I want to look like).
This is my style :) although for some reason I don't like this capsule compared to your others. Would love to see a more colorful spring/summer tomboy capsule though!
Ive always been a tomboy but too scared to wear those kinds of outfits cause people might think im a lesbian because in my country the word tomboy means lesbian and people thinm its weird if I shop at the mens section
There has always been an overlap between women who dress in "tomboy" or menswear or androgynous fashion. The women she used as examples were all known or rumored to be bi or lesbian, even though she didn't acknowledge that. I think if you can find tomboy/androgynous clothes in the women's section, they will fit you better and look less "lesbian". Also, having some obviously feminine elements like chic feminine hair, even if it's short (pixie cut, for instance, or a bob), nail polish, lipstick and mascara, shaped eyebrows, &/or some delicate jewelry will add femininity to your look. You can wear heels or sandals or Chelsea boots, too. It is *that* feminine/masculine *combination* that men and women find so attractive, especially on a slim woman. And *that* kind of look helps keep you from looking like a stereotypical "butch" lesbian. I hope you can wear the style you want, confidently and without fear. (P.S. Having people wonder if you are gay is no longer the worst thing in the world, but I understand not wanting to be misunderstood if you're not, or feeling unsafe.)
Love this! I defenitely lean towards an andro look without realizing it. But at the same time I love wearing feminine ethnic clothes (from my own heritage). There is no inbetween :)
This is how I dress in school, the Tomboy style, I dont follow the trends or the drip they all try to get into, especially the highwaist denims like I cant even see anyone in school whose not wearing one. They all morphed into one style. Which is weird. I mostly wear slacks and I got multiple plaids, long sleeves and coat. For casual shirt, just white and black shirt which I can pair with black midwaist pants or again with my slacks. Always wearing my watch, my ring and any earring that match my top. Which is white or black. Thats it, super simple and uncomplicated wardrobe.
I always were tomboy style clothes though my mom brought some girly cloth but I don't feel like put on....With my height I feel tomboy cloth match me...

100% my style. Have many similar items in my wardrobe. Love your selection of items)

😊

This is my style. Thank you for putting the pieces together for inspiration. At times I like a slight ruffle but then find a way to edge it up.
I love that you made this one cause I feel I might be the tomboy style....its helpfull to know where to stary making my capsule wardrobe
Thank you Daria! I also had trouble naming my style. I am classic tomboy which became so clear with your description. Everything became so clear, even the women I have most admired. Thank you again.
Thanks for the tips! The tomboy look has been my style since then. I am thin and girly looks in my opinion, requires some curves which I don't have. I grew comfortable with the masculine-feminine style and I hope we can all be confident in our own styles! Love this video! 💞
This is very similar to my personal style, I actually think it can be very sexy, for instance I myself wear all tomboy outfit but with a transparent shirt and a lace bra underneath, or accentuate a feminine bodyshape by wearing a belt on my waist over the oversized blazer and buy taylored pants, but high waisted ones and tuck my shirt in.
The items in this style I wear most often are vests and wool sweaters. My husband was recently giving away a couple sweaters and a vest that he didn't wear anymore, and said, "you know, you would probably like these". He was right..
They are perfect!
Pressed LIKE, and Subscribed immediately 🙂 nice to meet you Daria 😘 thank you for this video.. looking forward to the Summer edition! 😉
I wasn't totally convinced until you showed me the mix and matches with the wardrobes. I was surprised with how versatile it could become with a few select pieces :) thank you for this video!
I love this style. But, the word tomboy always makes me think of sporty girls in jeans and hoodies, I want to dress like a lady gentleman, like Katharine Hepburn. Like someone else said here, I too wear a lot of second hand shop items, both for men and women, usually while or black, and mostly in summer to avoid shorts and t-shirts. They feel so lush and elegant and classic. For example my favourite summer pants are simple white 3/4 pants for women from a second hand shop, but they are 5 sizes too big so on me they look like low rise culottes. I also follow a channel called Gentleman's Gazette and try to get creative with their men's style tips through women's clothes that fit my body (I'm size 32-34, no way I could pull off wearing men's clothes other than as oversized "statement" items). I like plain t-shirts too but only if it's cold enough to wear a suit jacket on top. And yessss, structured, classic looking handbags!
I love this style, most of my wardrobe consists of this style. Thank you for this video. Your channel is my favourite; it's unique and beautifully done.
Aww thank you! I appreciate your support and happy that you enjoyed this video as well! More wardrobe ideas are coming your way ❤️
Love this style which I call Annie Hall style. As for dresses I had a problem to wear them as I always used to say men don’t wear dresses 😂 but as we know it’s not true any more I wear them. What I do is wear them often on pants. Or with chunky boots, sneakers, leather jackets. The only difference vs Daria proposals is accessories . I love to exaggerate with them. Fancy big jewelry it’s a must for me. I like also ties, I make shopping often in men’s sections. I have many men’s blazers. And quality matters of course!
Wonderful! I am a full figure lady and this is my exact style! I already own most of these items with the addition of lots of scarves and also a few statement necklaces since I want to draw the persons eye upwards. I didn’t know until your video that my style had a name. And you’re correct, it isn’t talked about enough! Ive worn clothes like this since I was a teen.
How nice! I am glad you liked the video and found something new in it! It’s smart that you use accessories to redirect attention to your face. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this marvellous video...an absolute joy.
Most of my wardrobe over the last 30 years has come from the men’s dept...be they new or second hand. I find the materials and cut far superior especially for my 6 foot frame..
This is totally my style! I love the video! but i live in Brazil and is summer almost all year long! Can you give some options or tips for this kind of climate? Thanks!
I've always dressed comfortably, like a tomboy. They could never put me in a dress. And I'm a feminine woman with kids and grandkids. My style has always been skinny jeans or ponte pants, tunics or t-shirts, and one all-purpose cardigan. No purse, one pair of all black sneakers, and one pair of edgy black ankle boots. All items are black, grey, or a pop of color in the t-shirts. I own less than twenty articles of clothing, and my entire wardrobe fits in a carry-on bag. Freedom!
That's the beauty of personal style! It's all about what makes you feel best. Love the simplicity and functionality of your wardrobe.
I LOVE my denim overalls with hems ripped to 3/4 length and paired with comic book inspired t-shirts
I love to shop for shirts in the men section, I like the cuts better and it's my go to item in spring and summer over a pair of jeans ! I also think that men's wear accessories like baker boy caps and fedora hats are gorgeous.
Beautiful! I agree, for example I always buy beanies in men’s sections, they fit and are made so much better!
Thank you for talking about this style: this is my style! I always wear scarves and jewellery to balance the masculine side.
In my 20s most of my shorts were from the men's section but as I aged, my breast size has increased making it very uncomfortable to wear button downs (gaping).😔
When women's clothes were too girly and flimsy for my taste (70's), I loved men's clothes. I finally had to admit that my curves and 36DDD's just didn't work with those clothes. Shirts were either too big (to accommodate my chest) or the buttons gaped (or popped open).
I remembered liking the sophisticated European look of men who wore pullovers and turtlenecks under their blazers. So I tried it--I switched to mock-turtlenecks and V-necks and rarely ever wore button downs again. They're vastly superior to cotton button-downs: no ironing, no buttons to lose or pop open or gape, no cuffs to roll up, shows my curves a little, free-er movement (knit), and very comfy. They have a certain elegant simplicity and sensuality as well.
I’m 13 so I can still kinda shop in the boy section at h&m and also get high top vans or converse or something similar they look so cool
Thank you for making this video! I have had "tomboy" style since I was a little girl. A lot of my wardrobe is from the men's section too just because I prefer those shapes and sizes. My go-to outfit for colder weather is: Chunky knit sweater with a pair of cropped black trousers and a pair of suede sneakers or boots. Pair it with a leather jacket or wool trench and it's perfect.

Until I watched this video, I didn’t know both the name of my style and that I definitely belong to Tomboy style. The pieces I have been wearing and the way I match them are totally like the ones explained in the video and thanks a million for making me more aware of my style and I discovered your channel not long ago tbh you are giving such precious info that no book can cover. You are amazing 💙Speaking of one of my fav tomboy piece which is not mentioned in the video is mom jeans. I think it is so versatile to match them especially with blazers and oxfords.
Hi daria, could you make a video for androgyny style too? Thank you 😊
I was wondering the other day if you would ever do a wardrobe that actually reflected my personal style lol. Definitely keep the menswear-inspired wardrobes coming, I'll watch all of them!!
Well, apparently some of my wardrobe "whispers" tomboy. Maybe because I live in the country. I give you a big thank you for this video. You gave me ideas for outfits I hadn't thought of, using pieces I own (and never would have put together). I like the outfit at 3:39, 5:20, 5:16 and got the pieces covered. I only watched this video out of curiosity. You do great work, thank you.
Love your accent! Great video by the way
Funny now that I’ve found myself fitting in a category, but this is it! Daria your explanation is so on point. A subtle touch of “femininity” is something I try with the style, but I always get lazy and just end up wearing the same old (but favorite) necklace and earrings.
Why funny? I think it’s a pretty cool style! :) oh well, don’t force “femininity” too much, just add some little things from time to time like a red lip, small heel or silk blouse 👌
Daria Andronescu Thanks for your advice! It means a lot to me. I do wear silk shirt/blouses, ankle boots, kitten heels, etc. By the way, I said “funny” not about the style, which is fantastic, but about the fact that now I belong to a group (I never took personality test, for example).
Yess thank god 🥰 this is exactly what I wanted
Love it! I just found your videos and this is my style. Jeans here is a rule. Wonder wardrobe is fantastic. I don´t like to buy tons of pieces to make things happen. Getting to know all the combinations you do is a real solution for me. Thank you!
whaaat ! I have almost the exact same wardrobe :) super funny! Your are so proficient in what you do!
Super! Thank you 🙌
I just created this capsule for my new job! I found your video after shopping online. I’m happy to know that I will have at least 48 outfits to wear.
I would describe my style as Tomboy with a touch of fantasy mainly in the shoes and warm colours. I love all those beautiful material like wool and cashmere in my pull-overs, trousers and blazers. Personally I have taupe Chelsea boots, pointy low cowboy boots (burgundy) and beige sneakers for the fall. :) Thanks for the video
Beautiful video, Daria, very inspirational.
This has been one of your best!!! Thank you
Aww thanks! I am so glad to hear that!
I thought this was edgy-classic dressing but I like the tomboy name more!
Haha. First I thought that I am rather in a classic style than in a tomboys; but the example shows my wardrobe. So I think I am mostly dressed as tomboy. Thanks 🤗
But you’re right as well. The wardrobe I showed here has a Classic style with casual elements. It’s always a classic style but the complementary elements can be taken from any other style. Tomboy can be more sexy, or punk or boho or creative... depends on your personal style.
Yes, I thought this seemed very classic....so now I'm a little confused between the difference between 'tomboy' and 'classic'. I'm sure I'm somehow a bit of both but now I just don't get the difference. Also, maybe it's because I don't work in a professional setting or maybe because I'm In Canada but our version of 'tomboy' is much more masculine...baggy, ripped boyfriend jeans, flannel plaid button ups, Blundstone boots. Or big oversized sweatshirts or 'grandpa' cardigans. It's much more practical for everyday wear in the winter.
Thank you :D I have been trying to find my style for a while now and this has helped me a lot. Thank you
Love this video am a 18 year old girl and I love wearing t shirts and jeans and Converse and I love sports.
Daria, thank you! This style type and wardrobe really spoke to me. Oxfords and trousers are wardrobe staples for me, coupled with slightly cropped sweaters or jackets. And hats!
Uuu nice! I forgot about hats! What kind of hats do you wear with this style?
@@wonderwardrobe I have a wool fedora :)
Hi, I live in Brasil where the weather is extremely hot, can you please help me adaptat this wordrobe to heat of 47° celcius, the weather is always difficult. Can you help? thanks anyways :) love the video.
yes, please tell us where your shirt is from. I must have it!
This is the style I like and have always struggled to articulate. Great video. 👍
I just love that style. 😊 i have been always including man' items in my outfits 😂 now i know the exact mame of that style . Thanks
You are so welcome! 🤗
I love the Tomboy style. I have a very, very casual Tomboy style though.Black and white Converse are my go to. Boyfriend jeans " men's tank undershirts in dark colors, the classic Kurt Cobain cardigan w leggings, graphic tees, etc. I have short, red, hair, but I always have a smoky eye, just to keep it girly.
Many thanks for very informative video! I like this style very much. Are there some special recommendations for women with hourglas or pear body type who would like to wear the tomboy outfits? Thanks!
You’re welcome! Glad you liked it. I’d recommend going for slightly softer fabrics, and choosing high-wasted trousers for a better fit.
I have a bowtie, suspenders and masculine style shoes.
Glad to hear from you Bogi! Yes, these are all unique and interesting items that can spice this style up! Thanks for sharing! 💛
Thank you so much. You got a lot of respect and tolerance and are real nice .
Thank you! Fashion is not an easy topic for most women so I try my best to create a space of safe discovery, creativity and understanding 😌
Love the bag! Can you give me the info on brand and style, please?
This is actually pretty much describing my wardrobe lol
Great video! Question: I LOVE Tomboy style but I have an hourglass shape so it feels harder to pull off the Tomboy style. Would you agree? Any suggestion?
I agree, you can put a belt at the waist in a bottom down shirt or tuck in just the front part of the shirt
Contrast between harder materials and draping, and cut off the neckline (and possibly arms in t- shirts) the lower neckline is more flattering but doesn’t get to busty. Leather or pleather and for suits avoid dubbelbreasted, look for one or three buttons, smoking cut on the lapels is really flattering. Schals are great to give more vertical lines also don’t be afraid of shoulderpads. Avoid rectangels or square s in the clothing.
Example what I wore for an award show ( Nope, wasn’t nominated for anything) smoking jacket in black, gold pleated cami, dark grey/ black jeans skinnies, tall boots and a really wide and big old gold coloured egyptianlooking turquoise necklace in blue and green and an orange lipstick. So about 2/3 masculine but the last third was hella feminine adjust this to your proportion ( might depend on the day). Oh and boots are your friend as are leather backpacks and bigger manbags as well as eyeliner or kajal OR a daring lip. To get more focus on your face and whatever aspect you want to highlight ... but not the whole hog visible Or just go nude but well kept. Really Big jewellry and one or poss 2 or Very dainty avoid in between the proportions for some reason are thrown off. For good example of how to tomboy dressing with a curvy hourglass body check Helen Mirren out .
@@annarehbinder7540 wow! I sign under every word!
kysa knopkina =) ... To be honest, took a while to understand the bodytype and the Style. Especially after body changes as I got older as well as having been pregnant .what many people aren’t aware of is that even you don’t give birth having been pregnant whatever the end result changes the body breasts, hips etc including the bone structure in the pelvis and the hormones in the body to redistribute things. One thing I really would have liked information about in school. Also that you can change colours that suit you all through your life so every five years or so it’s time to take photos of yourself ( you normally can’t see it as well in a mirror) for some reason and check the colours, the Style, the haircut and see if it fits you as you are or if it’s time to do an update of either a couple of things or grand overhaul. Also the question should always be posed ... happened to me in a an earlier relationship and scared the bejesus out of me have I become boring? And if I have what can I do about it! Memento mori !
@@annarehbinder7540 same here! I already commented above about my Kibbie's bodyshape discovery, that changed my way of shopping and first of all accepting myself as is and finding clothing peaces that flatter my look and elevate my nature beauty.
Wow, your voice is beautiful
I love that style but I always prefer pairing it with either unisex (tennis shoes, sneaker) or feminine shoes and boots with a medium heel. I just don't like Oxfords and loafers at all 😅🌹
Fallen in love in your explainings. Absolutely proffesional.
I buy a lot of menswear because I have no waist and no butt, as an apple shape. So, they just fit better.
This is 100% me, such a great video. I could wear every outfit you chose🙌Thank you 🥰
Aww so nice! I am glad you enjoyed the video! ❤️
I live in a very cold place. I like to wear a blazer but in the winter need to also wear another coat over it. Any tips on layering blazers and coats in different seasons? Especially colder months.
Just make sure your coat/puffer jacket is spacious enough to wear thicker clothes underneath and it also should be longer than you blazer 🤗
I also have a free e-book dedicated to winter layering! Download it here: wonder-wardrobe.com/blog/layering-outfits
I finally found the right term for my style.
Question: I love the outfits you’ve shown for women, but can you do a similar style video for tween tomboys. My 11 yr old granddaughter has an apple shape, doesn’t want to wear anything too feminine, pink, dresses, or that looks like something her mom would wear. Can you help?
this video is so professional i feel like i need to sit up straighter
Where can i buy the blouse you have on??? It is perfect! I do not like tie dye, but your looks so classy, not sloppy. Please tell me
Claudia coy i think its Massumi Dutti. Thwy did bring our a similar one a few months back
My style is quite similar in some ways but I guess it's a mix ! I wear pants and oxfords all the time but I like to define my waist and wear feminine blouses. I describe my style as classy, retro and cute (or at least that's what I want to look like).
Im like a Tomboy, baddie that loves Pink ☺️🍷🔥
i love that you use amelia as a style icon ...
This is my style :) although for some reason I don't like this capsule compared to your others. Would love to see a more colorful spring/summer tomboy capsule though!
Ive always been a tomboy but too scared to wear those kinds of outfits cause people might think im a lesbian because in my country the word tomboy means lesbian and people thinm its weird if I shop at the mens section
There has always been an overlap between women who dress in "tomboy" or menswear or androgynous fashion. The women she used as examples were all known or rumored to be bi or lesbian, even though she didn't acknowledge that.
I think if you can find tomboy/androgynous clothes in the women's section, they will fit you better and look less "lesbian". Also, having some obviously feminine elements like chic feminine hair, even if it's short (pixie cut, for instance, or a bob), nail polish, lipstick and mascara, shaped eyebrows, &/or some delicate jewelry will add femininity to your look. You can wear heels or sandals or Chelsea boots, too.
It is *that* feminine/masculine *combination* that men and women find so attractive, especially on a slim woman. And *that* kind of look helps keep you from looking like a stereotypical "butch" lesbian. I hope you can wear the style you want, confidently and without fear.
(P.S. Having people wonder if you are gay is no longer the worst thing in the world, but I understand not wanting to be misunderstood if you're not, or feeling unsafe.)
Love this! I defenitely lean towards an andro look without realizing it. But at the same time I love wearing feminine ethnic clothes (from my own heritage). There is no inbetween :)
Thanks! Yes, but you can totally work with that! The androgynous looks can be for work and the ethnic ones for your leisure time 👌
I just found your channel, and may I say -wow! Im totally classic girl but I love color. Perfect video
I love this type of style, almost all of my clothes are like this! :) good video.
Lovely! I am glad you liked it! More wardrobe ideas are coming soon.
This is how I dress in school, the Tomboy style, I dont follow the trends or the drip they all try to get into, especially the highwaist denims like I cant even see anyone in school whose not wearing one. They all morphed into one style. Which is weird.
I mostly wear slacks and I got multiple plaids, long sleeves and coat. For casual shirt, just white and black shirt which I can pair with black midwaist pants or again with my slacks.
Always wearing my watch, my ring and any earring that match my top. Which is white or black. Thats it, super simple and uncomplicated wardrobe.
I love the way she talks :)
I always were tomboy style clothes though my mom brought some girly cloth but I don't feel like put on....With my height I feel tomboy cloth match me...
Thank you so much for being such an inspiration ♥️🔥💫...
❤️
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻I LOVE shirt in summer also I use in winter !
I just wear Long shirts with sweater over it, Shoes or them emo boots, Black jeans and some chains along with a hat
Great video 💯👍 And I love your blouse!!!
Aww thank you! ❤️
