Match Point

. . 18

This boyfriend/not quite boyfriend oversized t-shirt that’s almost a t-shirt makes for easy transitional dressing in the warm(ish) Sydney fall, but A) W won’t be caught dead in it which disqualifies it as any kind of boyfriend-garment. Come to think of it, I actually don’t know any boyfriends belonging to anyone who’d wear their girlfriend’s boyfriend-things but it’s a nice arrangement: us borrowing clothes from our significant others and them never bothering to return the favour; and B) the fabric falls somewhere between t-shirt and sweatshirt and it’s cut somewhat like a sweatshirt with oversized, t-shirt sleeves that I rolled up for effect. So perplexing that I barely know how to describe it beyond ‘baggy’ and ‘awesome’.

I’ve already worn it way too many times last week and here on the weekend it was nice and warm for a while so I wore them with shorts while it still made sense. It’s been really nice in Sydney lately and I hope the weather is going to be just as nice in Europe next week. Thanks to everyone who has left me suggestions on things to check out over there - I’m really looking forward to being in the Southern Hemisphere for a bit!

(Yes, I’ve got a scar next to my left eye - got it when I was 11! Also featured: random feather I found on the street)

    Hahahaha! Yeah I don’t know any guys that would be caught ‘dead’ wearing some oversized attire from their female friends. Could you imagine a world in which they did (and I am not just talking about those who do it behind closed doors lol) hell I wouldn’t want to share!!!

    I love any sort of b&w outfit, and this is no exception :) Hahah now that you mentioned it, it is mostly a one way street! Too bad for them. The shirt looks super comfy

    There’s nothing better than a properly oversized, slouchy tee, love this one! I agree, Ollie wouldn’t wear any of the things I own described as ‘boyfriend’ either! Though, I also buy a lot of things from the mens section that he would wear if I didn’t get them in size small! ;)

    Keeping my fingers crossed the weather will be nice for you next week, though it’s usually perfect at this time of the year in Spain, not too hot or cold. Have an amazing time too! :)

    • http://www.absolutely-fuzzy.com/ steph / absolutely-fuzzy.com

      I do that too, and the occasional closet raiding ;) Actually Zara mens seem to consistently have the best sweaters and the occasional awesome bag/murse type thing. Looking forward to Spain, thanks again for your lovely email x

    Over-sized Tee’s are the best ^_^ love how you mentioned the random feather, a rather beautiful one I must say.
