I was always something of a tomboy and loved wearing men-inspired shoes. Even when I eventually found my feminine side, I still reveled in boyish brogues with dresses or going full-gusto with pantsuits. And on any regular day, the combo of jeans, a tailored jacket (with a great cut and/or fabric), and killer brogues is still my way to be myself and comfortable in every way. But I definitely want to be all-girl – we are the superior sex! And these feminized brogues never let me forget that.
