My work life would be SO much more bearable if there was even just one sexy butch I could fawn over. Although if she had style like this, I wouldn’t get as much done, either…This is the Butch associate attorney in my office, Erica (the senior partner is also a dapper sartorially inclined Butch). I described her outfit on my Twitter when she came into the office after a day of deposition work, while I was working on a gay divorce. @Supermattachine asked “Where does this butch shop? Serious question.”
Stephen Ira, here is her answer:
“I shop lots of places. I blend shopping in men’s departments and women’s departments strategically. I generally buy women’s pants. I really like Joe’s Jeans (a brand of overpriced but wonderful jeans). I shop at Bloomingdales a lot for suits. My suits are either Theory or Calvin Klein based on my price point that day or time of year. Theory is a lot more expensive than Calvin Klein. I buy a lot of button downs from Gap and Banana Republic. I shop at thrift stores in Brooklyn a lot. Favorites include Odd Twin, but I kind of like them all. I make a bee line for the vests section, and their ties and bow ties. I know how to tie a bow tie, not well. It takes me a really long time and I generally am running late so I don’t wear them very much. I like Kenneth Cole a lot, this tie is Kenneth Cole. So are these shoes.” [The shoes, not pictured, are really foxy. Erica is open to more outfits of the day.]
I have a dream job, y’all. And if you’re in NY state and need an LGBT boutique law firm let me know.

I don’t really try to be fashionable because this is what my inner aesthetic looks like, and unfortunately, that’s just too couture to wear to class. Drat.
