THE SOUND I MAKE WHEN I WALK
Does anyone remember putting on their first pair of heeled shoes? I do, and I was scared shitless. But I need to start at the beginning. The first time I saw men wearing heels was on Pinterest I think. I was looking up outfit ideas and suddenly saw this man wearing an all-leather suit and leather boots to finish it off. But these weren’t your regular old Chelsea boots, no, these were boots with at least a 7-centimeter heel! I was feeling so many things at once, amazement, confusion and even a little bit of jealousy. But why was I feeling jealous?
10 PERSONALITIES WHO AREN’T AFRAID TO BREAK THE GENDER CONSTRUCT
These days there are so many different people that are helping to break the boundaries between genders. They’re breaking certain boundaries that I personally look up to and get huge amounts of inspiration from. I’ve put together a list of different personalities. They vary from influencers, to singers, to designers. These people have a special place in my heart when it comes to genderless fashion so I’ve decided to highlight them to spread the word and normalize androgynous styling. So this is a list of 10 personalities on Instagram that aren’t afraid to break the gender construct. (P.S. click their picture to see the rest of their amazing feed.)
HOW LAYERING CAN MAKE YOUR OUTFITS MORE INTERESTING
In my way of styling as well as in my regular daily life, I use a lot of layering in my outfits. The reason I do this is because it gives some extra dimension to your looks. It also can keep you extra warm during the colder days. But there are also ways you can layer your outfits in summer and not feel like you’re melting under the sun. I’ve deconstructed different levels of layers to help you elevate your outfits and understand layering better.
MY EXPERIENCE AT MY FIRST FASHION SHOW IN PARIS
In the spring of 2022, I decided to spend a few days in one of my favorite cities in the world. Paris. I know it might be a little cheesy to say that I love Paris but it’s true, and I know that I’m definitely not the only one. But I digress. Because Paris revolves around fashion there was one thing I knew I had to do, attend a fashion show. The fashion show I’m talking about is not one of the major shows at fashion week but for me, at the time, I felt entirely at home.
WHY I DON’T CARE AND WHY YOU SHOULDN’T EITHER
Let me explain. My name is Noah Spee, I’m a strong believer that fashion does not have a gender and should be used accordingly. Not only do I believe that fashion has no gender, but I think that it is also a way of self-expression. Self-expression is important for a number of reasons. It allows us to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and ideas to others. Another thing it can do is improve individual self-esteem and confidence. Fashion is a huge part of expressing your ideals to the world. But the important thing is to know how to convey those ideals THROUGH fashion .
