Weekend style: Borrowed from the boys

Let's hear it - and steal it - from the boys! A buttoned up blue shirt with rolled-up chino shorts and loafers feel just right.

Let's hear it for the boys! Feminine fashion is always fun but a masculine-inspired outfit can be equally easy and laidback. We love this summertime take on the chino and blue denim combo. Button up a collared blue shirt and roll the sleeves. Follow suit by rolling up the hem on a pair of chino shorts and tie it together with a brown belt. Add a pair of loafers or slipper-inspired shoes and your tomboy look is complete.

Makeup is obviously kept to a minimum - save for a tinted lip balm, and throw hair up in a loose topknot.
