Feminist Apparel To Wear For Women's History Month
by Autumn Jones

Sometimes celebrating just feels better when you have an outfit to match. Like rocking a rad costume on Halloween or donning some sparkly sequin pants for New Year's Eve, putting together an ensemble of feminist apparel to wear during Women's History Month just seems to make sense. Unlike other special occasions that last just one day, you have an entire month to rock all manner of cool pro-women looks, so why not stock up on awesome tees, dresses, and sweatshirts so you have a piece for every mood? (High-five to feminist fashion for providing so many amazing options.)

Forget the handmade shirts of yesteryear with "Girl Power" scrolled in puffy paint across a solid white men's undershirt. These days feminist clothing is stylish, diverse, and meaningful — which means you can own your sexuality while feeling hella hot in that tank top, but also make it clear that your body is no object. Although there is no wrong time of year to wear your fave feminist apparel, Women's History Month is a great opportunity to make a statement. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just a simple t shirt with a killer phrase does the trick. Start here to get some inspiration for your woman power look.
