Personally, I recommend to try on cuffed straight-leg or boyfriend jeans to show off the beauty of brogues of oxfords. If you do want to look boyish, then you better keep your outfit menswear inspired. For instance, try on suits, boyish blazers, jeans to create daring everyday looks.

The result looks stunning, crazy, ladylike and glamorous. You can make some fun by wearing brogues and oxfords with classic prints and patterns, like checks, tartans, polka dots, plaids, etc.
