Robert Graham mens shirt with Alain Manoukian long navy skirt….

Here is a little inside tip next time you hit a thrift store don’t assume that the clothing is arranged in their proper places….. Here is what I am talking about , when I found this gorgeous Robert Graham shirt I initially thought it was a woman’s blouse because I was actually in the women’s section of the thrift store.  I picked it up because I of course recognized the label and I thought the pattern and fabric was beautiful.  Then I noticed that the buttons were on the right side of the shirt so this technically makes this not a blouse but instead a shirt.  I know that sounds so anal and believe me I am not into buttons on the left side make a women’s blouse and buttons on the right side make a man’s shirt blah blah blah…..  All that sounds so boring to me and who really gives a crap which side of the aisle the buttons are on…left ….right….I believe that if a shirt or blouse is FAB then buy it, wear it and enjoy it.  Getting all that out of the way I found this beautiful Robert Graham SHIRT that has the most gorgeous inside fabric around the collar and cuffs..  The inside fabric design is like a Georges Seurat painting.  The style of artwork Seurat is widely known for is called ‘pointillism’ which is a technique of painting in which small dots of pure color are applied in patterns to form an image.  I then found this navy long stretch skirt by Alain Manoukian that looks like it was meant to be worn with the Robert Graham SHIRT.   Alain Manoukian is a leading French designer, distributor and retailer of ready to wear fashions, with an emphasis on knitwear.  A woman could wear this Robert Graham mens SHIRT with this Alain Manoukian long navy skirt and feel totally at ease.  I mean woman have always worn mens clothing and they look FAB in it, it’s acceptable for women to wear mens clothing but not the other way around…hummmm  food for thought….  If there is anything on my blog that you are interested in please email for price, additional photos and measurements and also check out The Thrifters Boutique.  Please follow me daily on Twitter & Facebook and also enjoy my YouTube videos on thrifting.  Toodles for now.  Daniel
