Ellen Page in Interview Magazine:
"What's your idea of a perfect day?"
Ellen Page, "Lord, I don't know. Maybe wake up, have some delicious coffee, eat some delicious fruit, then go for a bike ride and bring a good book. And read and swim and read and swim -- something super simple, I guess," Ellen told Interview Magazine.
Ellen is shown here in a playful women's blouse, cut a little longer into the torso and tucked into brief ribbed underwear. She was clearly styled for this shoot and not for street wear so keep that in mind, and maybe opt to untuck your shirt (as cute as we know your underwear is).
Shop the Shirt
This look is Ellen Page in 2008, so let's upgrade it to a more modern feel while still keeping the playful qualities. I recommend a short sleeve button up shirt like this cuffed Studio Nicholeson Carmelo Silk Shirt. $141.99
EXTREME $$ Saving Tip: Shop American Eagle or JC Penny for a non silk, cuffed short-sleeved option. Be sure the sleeves aren't too short or too long on your arms, and it is tapered down the torso and giving your hips plenty of room to breathe.
Shop the Underwear
As for the underwear, try American Apparel's Unisex Boxer Briefs. They provide a thick band around the waist that will achieve that tomboy look. Or truly, any of our 7 recommended boxer briefs for the Modern Tomboy.
Shop the Pant
This relaxed and faded black skinny jean will work, like these from Current/Elliot $230
EXTREME $$ Saving Tip: ANY relaxed and faded black jeans will work, including these for $12. If you're not into skinny jeans, and are accustomed to mens jeans, try buying a pair of womens jeans one or two size bigger, you'll get the slight sag without compromising the crotch length.

Shop the Jacket
While not an exact match, what you are going for is a blue satin jacket. This one from Antonion Berardi is 2,430.00 If any of our readers are spending this kind of money, please kindly donate this jacket to the first lowly lesbian you see.
Extreme $$$ Saving Tip: Give up the satin. Check into Zara Blazers like this one on ebay, for $69

"Less than three weeks after her big coming out speech, Page attended the Vanity Fair Oscar Party wearing a leather accented Saint Laurent tux by Hedi Slimane. I felt happy and confident, and the difference was huge," said Page.
Ellen is decked out in Saint Laurent here from head to toe. If you're down, head there to shop. But for the rest of us, let's talk alternatives.
Shop the Jacket
Needless to say that any offerings pale in comparison to the above picture. But you can come close. Look for a blazer that is custom stretched in heritage gray with black detail, like the one above. It will create a relaxed, superbly sleek vibe that accentuates and flattens in all the right places. Here's one that promises to do just that from LOFT for 128.00
Shop the Tie
Any black skinny tie will do, my favorite ones are leather because it gives it a little more weight. These run at about $20.00
Shop the Pants
Black Leather Pants from H&M $34.95
Shop the Shoe
Last but not least, this Mimmu Leather Ankle Boot, $239.95
We hope you've enjoyed this edition of Shop the Look! Thank you Ellen Page and your stylists for many looks to be inspired by.
In All Things Tomboy,
