I Found this photoshoot of Natalie Portman from V Magazine on one of my favourite sites Stylenoir.co.uk
I love her look and was just wondering what everyone else thought of her androgynous style and hair?

I like looking feminine, showing my curves, not drowning them in some oversized sack.

I've seen girls look absolutely stunning with this kind of style, but on me it wouldn't work - I'm too tall and don't have the right kind of face to pull it off.

But boyfriend jeans can look nice if you are accesorised well and have good hair and make up.
And short hair only works well with the elfin look, as scarlet pointed out.

scar, in all honesty, you'd do a wayyyyy better job of pulling the look of than I could. lol.
being nearly 6 foot tall means there is no way I can try to look androgynous without looking like Alex Reid on a ladies night!

& @ pandariffic not sure who you are calling a spambot?
