Next time you go shopping, take a trip to the men’s section- it will open up many more options to you and you might be surprised at the stylish pieces you’ll find.
In addition it can also be a solution to other problems, like if you’re tall it’ll be easier to find long sleeve tops that reach all the way down to your arms rather than ending abruptly two inches away from your wrists. With that in mind, here are some of the hidden gems you can find in the men’s department of your favorite store.
- An oversized sweater
Its sweater weather season and it would be incomplete without cute and comfy knits. And what better way to get into the spirit than grabbing the ‘perfect’ oversized sweater off the racks. Finding the perfect piece in the lady’s department may not go that well. That’s why we recommend you to slide a little bit to the men’s section because they’re usually better quality and even more comfortable than those in the women’s section.
2. Boyfriend Jeans
This is one trend that took everyone by storm, and if you and your boyfriend are arguing over his jeans then we say you go shopping with him. But why buy these from the women’s section when you can get real ones with much better fit at his (your boyfriend) section.
3. Flannel Shirt
Another winter must have is the classic flannel shirt. You’re literally going to start living in the flannel shirts you get in the men’s section, not only is it warm and great for cold weather but it is also regarded as one of the most stylish pieces that we have to flaunt. If you’re a fan of solid shades blue, grey, black turn towards the men’s section and pair them with jeans, throw it over your dress to layer like a fashion pro.
4. Men’s Wrist Watch
Wearing oversized men’s- inspired watch is a trend that has been around for a while now and has gained plenty of traction among women as well, because they speak elegance and class. Hit the men’s section to get the watch, and look like an absolute girl boss wearing one. If it’s too big for you though, you can take it to your jeweler to get the band size adjusted.
5. Tank Tops
We absolutely love tank tops but it’s a little hard to find tops that aren’t too fitted in the lady’s section, so why not head over to the men’s department for them? The best thing about them is that you can wear them anyway you want and literally with anything you want.
6. Thick Socks
Who doesn’t need long and cozy socks to stay warm? High socks are ideal when it’s cold out because they stop your legs from freezing and keep your boots from destroying your ankles. You’ll find some really cheap and thick socks in the men’s section, socks that are more easily accessible, thicker and well better.
7. Sweatpants and Shirts
Sweatpants and shirts are a winter essential and for better variety and comfier fit, you need to ditch the sweatpants you find in your own department. Sweatpants are meant to be the coziest, comfiest and slightly baggy. And you’ll find exactly that in the men’s section.
At the end of the day, we hope that you’ll head into the men’s section for a great bargain and to buy all these fashion staples next time.
