Yay or Nay: Jennifer Morrison Red Carpet Menswear
As a guilty pleasure fan of the show Once Upon A Time, I'm actually a kind of a closeted Jennifer Morrison fan. I like her cute, unique style and her tough as nails attitude, which is why when I saw her rock a men's suit on the red carpet, I was pretty impressed with her moxie.
I'm usually not a fan of women doing menswear, it always feels a bit like a novelty and too kitschy to me. However, I'm inclined to give a 'Well, played' nod to Ms. Morrison here for this androgynous look. I think it works mostly because she's contrasted her masculine look with very feminine makeup and hair. That crimson pout is gorgeous with her porcelain skin and her milkmaid-esque braid goes surprisingly well with her suit.
There is one thing that seriously bugs me about this look: the cut. It feels way too bulky and casual to me. I would have loved to have seen Jennifer is something a little sleeker and fitted to show off a bit of curve. However, when it comes to fashion, I think everyone should just go for it and have fun with it! Never play it safe! So, for this menswear look, I am going to give Jennifer a pass.

I think after so many red carpets and events, it's just another way to get the spotlight on you! She looks great in anything! | |
Nay!! | |
I like it. One of my favourite musicians, Janelle Monae, rocks the menswear look. I think women can look great in suits! | |
I say yay - She looks awesome... I love her hair! So simple & elegant :) | |
a big nay! | |
i don't like!.. If i had the opportunity to be at a red carpet event, there's SO MANY other things i would wear before a suit.. | |
Yay I think she looks cute and fun. I do agree though that it would have been nicer had it been more fitted. | |
Nay for me! | |
