Always, always skirts! But knee-length almost 90% of the time; the rest are slightly longer during winter, like flowing floor-length. And they must be in cotton or linen, I won't wear anything else. I haven't worn jeans/pants in about 5 years.
I think I cornered the market on Anthropologie, lol. Every skirt I own is from that store; I'll buy at least 5-8 every season. They have to have a structured waist line, no elastic and such. Usually I wear them with one of the following: -Girly/ruffled jacket and a v-neck tee -Cropped, fitted jacket with a tank or v-neck tee underneath, sometimes layered ones -Blouse, slightly fitted, tank underneath -Blouse tied up, over a slightly fitted shirt or tank -Lacoste polo, usually with a jacket over top. Typically a white skirt, white jacket, and a super bright polo. I used to wear a lot of black, now I barely wear it once a month, so lots of bright and pastel colors for me. A lot of white! I prefer kitten heels and ballet flats, stilettos for certain events. I don't have a problem with heels at all, but after 5 years straight of wearing tall heels (and to class!), I'm doneee! I prefer brightly colored or white-ish bags. Absolutely no neutrals, and no black. Given my hair length, I love the look of larger earrings peeking out of my hair, so I wear them quite often. I'm always wearing some type of necklace, sometimes multiple ones, layered. I'm also always wearing at least 5+ rings, out of habit. I love rings and antique ones especially, so I wear a number of them every day. Always have to have my big glasses, sometimes a headband or twilly...that's about it! |

Alot black and stilletos...
I love black and dark jeans, it's a great canvas to showcase my Louis Vuitton accessories (aka purses). ![]() Right now, I love my red, purple and pink highlights in my long black hair because it makes me not look like the typical Asian chick with layered jet black hair. |

I always wear:
My wedding set My Cartier Pasha My gold ankle bracelet. Its very delicate. My Black MIU MIU glasses because contacts drive me batty. I have dark brown hair just past my shoulders & 99% of the time its in a pony or bun. My toes are always painted (currently white) but rarely my nails. They are super short too because I just do too much w/ my hands. Usual Outfit: Jeans Black Tee Ferragamo, Chanel, Bally or Puma shoes! Also love Teva & Puma flip flops. Wear flats A LOT! But do wear heels when going out BUT not going to be on my feet! I also wear alot of shawls or scarves. Missoni, Pucci, Alexander McQueen & a bunch of no-namers. A male friend actually teases me about how often I wear a shawl! I always carry a bag & they are all leather. I don't do well w/ suede, cloth, etc. They get dirty & my dog likes to wipe his mouth on them! ![]() If I get dressed up I wear a dress or skirt 99% of the time. The only pants that are an easy fit for me are jeans or slim. straight leg sweats. I'm just too short for regular pants w/0 alterations! |

eclectic boho?? haha i have no idea what my style is, but i always have to have a giannnt purse---one big enough to 'fit a baby in' (as my friends say). I kinda just pick what looks cute, and don't really think about making an outfit with it. usually I just put stuff together, and if I don't look like a complete jerkoff, i'm out the door!
hehe

I feel as though, even as I'm entering my late 20's, I have yet to find my own "style". I lost quite a bit of weight a couple of years ago, yet in my mind I still feel self conscious trying new things (thought I'm around a size 6 these days). On the rare occasion that I feel OK enough to try something new, I walk away with a new dress or pants or top....gaining confidence is damaging to my finances
.I'm in jeans 80% of the time, which I'm trying to change. I'm a girly girl at heart and am slowly introducing skirts and wrap dresses to my wardrobe. I'm finding the best thing about getting a bit older is caring less and less what people think and furthermore, realizing that most people aren't thinking anything anyway . My style these days is tentative. It's experimental. It's nervous. But it's me. Knee length skirts. Straight leg pants with killer heels. V neck tops. Lots of shoes shoes shoes. And starting to get into the bags. Minimal jewellery. Nude face with berry-red lips. Or charcoal eyes with pale glossy lips. My hair is long and curly and usually brunette...though it's been carrie-bradshaw-blonde for a few years. And it's been red. And black. My style is evolving.

My wardrobe consists many of black, brown, and gray, with some green, yellow, or blue pieces. I hardly ever wear patterns or strips. My idea of "daring" is wearing white pants or my leopard print shoes. I'm more into classic pieces that don't go out of style. Since I live in Miami, 80% of my wardrobe is capri pants, skirts, and sleeveless tops. Most of my shoes are wedge heeled. I only own 2 pairs of high heels.
I usually wear a headband, tricolor hoops, & my Prada or Dior sunglasses. My favorite pair of shoes at the moment are a pair of silver flats I bought at the flea market for $5. I do not think twice about mixing expensive designer pieces with $10 pieces bought on clearance. |

I am not sure that my personal style fits into a catergory but I am always wearing V Neck , either t-shirts or sweaters . I wear a lot of bright colors and no matter what I always match my clothes to each other , if my striped shirt has a medium pink color stripe you can bet that I have a medium pink sweater on
I have to have a perfect match with everything ![]() In the summer I wear a lot of skirts that have bright patterns on them I try not to do too many patterns on top I have a year-round obession with argyle (sp) I own about 20 sweaters with the pattern and a lot of people recgonize my argyle sweaters and my Coach bags ![]() In the winter I layer thin layers to keep me warm I try to look like I walked out a J Crew Catalog and no matter what I always top off my look with a head full of Curly Hair that most people know me by

This is a fun topic!
I always wear a thick gold bracelet, a ring with my family crest and another golden ring with stones. I also have never collored my hair and i wear it long. In summer i wear dresses most of the time with ballet flats or tod's loafers. I'm romantic and classic. I will wear a black yanko clutch, my vuitton cabas piano or pochette. In winter i wear jeans with ugg's most of the time, i love turtlenecks in neutral collors. I gets pretty cold here. I wear knee length wool double brested coats and i love burberry scarves. I always wear earrings and almost never a necklace. I wear pearls or diamond earrings most of the time but i wear more daring earrings when i go out. I always paint my too nails at the moment i'm into red |

preppy! very east coast, very classic...i like structured, basic (some might say boring) pieces like cable knit sweaters, button downs and polos. And jeans. Lots and lots of jeans! Bright colors are a must too. I pretty much wear the same brands..I shop at a lot of the same stores (mainly: RL, J Crew, Lacoste).
I'm kind of a brand/clothing loyalist. My favorite pieces..I like to wear them until they die. For example, the 2 pairs of shoes I wear the most are my Rainbow flip flops and my Sperry topsiders. I've had my Rainbows for 3 years now..my Sperry's for one and the leather stitching is seriously about to fall apart! Lately, I've been trying to break my usual habits and get more interesting pieces in my wardrobe. I've been on a huge sundress kick so I've been doing a lot of shopping at Urban Outfitters, Lilly Pulitzer, etc. I don't like overly trendy pieces...but I do like to experiment with leggings, tights, whatever the current "it" thing is. |

Eclectic.
I go with whatever I'm feeling that particular day. My styles completely based on mood and feeling. Though I always try to stay: Classy Edgy Chic Sexy Sophisticated ... ...as much as I can. |

I'm 15, so my style is not too formal-work sophisticated. More casual chic meets preppy. I love to follow trends, and usually will buy an "it" item from the season.
Hair is always down, sometimes with a headband. Nails are always polished. Right now I have black... But they're usually a light pink. I black nail polish though. Even though I'm more preppy style than "gothic" I'm always for a denim mini, cute flats, tank with a shrug or just a nice top. Also, tunic over leggings. Minimal accessories, bracelet or necklace. Jewelry or belt. I rarely wear both. Love polo's too. That's for summer. Winter, I'm in jeans jeans jeans. I LIVE in jeans. Oversized sweaters and petite sweaters. Layering. Just a necklace or a bracelet. Sometimes a belt over an oversized sweater. Boots. Sweater dress over thicker leggings w/ flats or a cute boot. I also love button-up shirts that are a bit more form-fitting and I'm also feeling the flowy tank top / cami's they have going on this year. I just try to look put together and eye-catching. I know what looks good on me and I wear it. That's the best advice of all: to know what suits you. Wear the clothes, don't let them wear you.

I usually tend to go with jeans and a flowy top. I seem to stick with marc jacobs, pucci tunics, or random
pieces from local botiques. For the most part they are pastels in a solid or small print. Lately though I've been wearing calf to mid-lenght dresses in bright retro prints. I'm almost in heels. Unless I know I'll be doing alot of walking, for which I wear flats. Its always bright here so I never go out with out my chanel sunnies. And I wear alot of wood of jewlery that my sister has made me out of turquoise, coral, ect. |
