I always wear Heels! Whether it be jeans, slacks dresses or whatever,I am always in heels!!!
I also LOVE COLOR and black! I was told by a friend that I am a little bit punk, chic, rock and classic rolled into one!
Which I guess is pretty on as thats how i FEEL WHEN i DRESS.

I love to stand out in a good way. I like to mix stuff not everyone thinks of. Alot of people here walk around in flip flops and shorts and tanks over swim suits all the time and I love that I dont do that unless i'm actually going to the beach.

I don't have much of one, but I'd probably be described as always more than casual, which is notable for someone my age. Jeans are rare, jewelry is worn always/often (I always have on rings, but other stuff is just often). I don't wear the same thing for at least a month at a time, so "varied" might also be mentioned.

meganfm · Dec 22nd, 2008, 02:11 PM

I think I'm known for always wearing dark skinny jeans. I don't own anything else. That and a black/grey top-I've gotten into a color rut I need to get out of!

I love that everyone has a personal style because i feel like my style is always evolving, yet it usually evolves into the same "signature style"
I wear a lot of black, but try very hard to wear color. It has to be a day that i really feel like wearing color, otherwise i end up in black.
I'm super picky about the clothes i wear, ity has to fit just right or else it'll just hang in my closet forever and never see the light of day.
I'm a boutique owner, so i always feel like i need to dress "my best" so to work i will wear William Rast Jeans and a cute top or sweater or dress. And when i'm dressed downdown it's jeans, boots and a tee.
I'm pretty classic though, low key jewelry but sometimes i'll wear a really fashion forward piece.

Work is pretty basic - slacks, a sweater (or a nice t-shirt during warmer weather) and a jacket. When it's really warm, I often wear a blouse as a jacket over a t-shirt (have to layer due to unpredictable air conditioning in the office). I've always been a handbag gal, but the quality of my bags has risen sharply in the last few months, LOL! Jewelry is less bohemian these days...used to love big dangly beaded earrings and necklaces, now they are simpler/smaller but almost always gold. I like ankle boots with a 2-3" heel in all but the warmest weather under slacks, and I don't wear skirts much at all.

My hair has been mostly pixie short and red for the last several years, but now I'm letting it grow out and have more gold highlights. I'm working toward a more caramel color. Not sure how long I'm going to be comfortable with.

Weekends are jeans, loafers, clogs or boots, t-shirt or sweater and a hoodie, sometimes under another jacket. For going out (on those rare occasions when we go out anymore), I have some nice Chico's pieces that I can throw on. (Yes, I went through a Chico's phase a couple of years ago, still wear their jeans because they fit me better than any others....

)

I feel the same way about Chico's jeans. My daughter jokes about me wearing them but I wear mostly designer tops...sweaters etc. but I've yet to find a pair of designer jeans that fit right. Need help finding something else.

For winter, I love long cardigans/sweater/wraps with leggings or tights. Slouchy boots are always a must! In the summer, tunics with necklaces, light tights, and strappy sandals.

Little Tiger · Jan 1st, 2009, 09:03 PM

I love fabric: cashmere, knit-silk, merino wool, cotton and tweed. I’m also very lazy and categorically wouldn’t buy something which would need a lot of upkeep!

Designers/labels: I love YSL, vintage Dior dresses, gorgeous British tailoring like Austin Reed, Burberry and Aquascutum, and also like a lot of modern stuff like Alexander McQueen and Roland Mouret. I don’t like obvious labels or anything too instantly recognizable.

Accessories: I love vintage Liberty scarves (I prefer these to Hermes – sorry!), Smythson, snuggly cashmere scarves, vintage belts, and I’m a sucker for a nice pair of gloves. The glove collection currently stands at vintage Dior, Hermes, red punk-style pair with studs, elbow length French 1920s riding gloves with buttons all up the arm, black keyhole gloves, and white knitted cashmere.

Current look: I’m a bit of a slob and as it's so cold I'm wrapping myself up in layers of cashmere paired with gap jeans at present, but when I make an effort I like fitted dresses, pencil skirts, wool tights, a beautiful trench and dramatic natural stone earrings. I’m not subtle with jewellery and like to wear big earrings. I love quality fine jewellery but delicate chains and diamond studs just wouldn’t suit me. I'm eastern European looking, slim and angular.

I’m much more of a winter dresser than summer.

Things which I really like but haven’t bought into yet are the SATC Dior extreme sandals, Louis Vuitton leopard scard, Bottega Veneta travel bags, and Herve Leger dresses.

I go through cycles with regards to colours (perhaps this is just part of building up a collection!) and have always had a lot of black, then moved onto brighter hues, and am currently drawn to very natural stone, caramel and chocolate brown. Structured clothes suit me much better.

annab · Jan 3rd, 2009, 12:05 AM

I always wear legings/tights with boots and a V-neck, sweater, vintage tees or sundreses like Taylor Swift. I adore statement rings, scarves and layered charm necklaces. Also, I have several Betsey Johnson bags which I love love love to death.

I'm very eclectic & my style changes often, but I love fashion hahah.

Many people say style wise if Demi Lovato and Lauren Conrad had a child, I'd be it haha

Here here!!!

I dress up when I'm out, but if I'm in my house, or not leaving for the day, it's yoga pants for me!

To go shopping or out, I'll wear jeans, a cute top, and a scarf, and a sweater. I always wear kitten heels, unless we have snow (which we so often do, then I'll have to wear the ugg boots, but that's only because the snow is up to my ankles!

In the spring/summer I LOVE sun dresses and flats. I wear them more often that I wear shorts! They are stylish and so comfy!

CuTe_ClAsSy · Jan 4th, 2009, 02:28 PM

It's honestly disgusting how often I wear sweats. I'm not one of those people who feel the need to get completely dressed to run to the drugstore. However on a daily basis for school, shopping, out to dinner, etc. I have a very edgy style. I like dark colors with bold accessories, colorful bags and shoes. I'm not afraid to mix colors and patterns (I love bright tights!) and I definitely rock the chuck taylors on a regular basis. I like to have fun with my clothes and be comfortable.

AHHH!!! THANK YOU! I can honestly say I try to never look gross, I always wear makeup if I leave the house (so I don't scare small children...lol! Some people can get away w/ no makeup), however, if I need milk or bread or even gasoline, I'm not going to go put pumps on to do it...lol. And if someone looks at me and says, "OMG, she's wearing SWEATS..."then it's probably not someone I want to know anyway...lol.

PurseXaXholic · Jan 4th, 2009, 03:45 PM

I love to wear cute clothes, for school, people probibly say i dress up too much, but i love dresses, tights, heels, etc. But I would agree, if i'm going to the drug store or running arronds, i'll probibly just wear jeans and a tee shirt w/ boots in winter, and sandles in summer. But if i planned on going somewhere, i probibly planned an outfit alread either in my mind, or on my maniquinn. Even if its just to the mall. If i know i'm going to the mall earlier that day, i'll plan an outfit. That's just me.

My style would go along the lines of Classic, Cute, Romantic, and a little sophisticated for my age with a trendy twist. Example: I'll pair really dark skinny jeans, heels, a ruffley, romanic blouse, and a blazer.

quenda · Jan 4th, 2009, 06:55 PM

I just love love love ruffles. A nice pair of jeans and a shirt with a ruffle and a good bag. When it comes to shoes it depends on where I'm going and doing. Usually during the winter ill throw on the uggs, at work it depends on how i feel,it can be heels or flats and out with my so i will def wear heels. And i must have a cardigan and i swear i have one in every color> I know im a real casual person

trapt204 · Jan 4th, 2009, 07:33 PM

I wear a lot of black, but it's not all I wear. I really only do wear neutrals, however. I have a few pairs of gray and black pants for work, but as far as personal style goes, the only pants I wear are super dark wash classic cut jeans. I'm either wearing my wonderful Chinese Laundry Turbo boots or flats, but it's too cold for that now. As much as I love to look, because of knee and ankle surgeries I can't handle heels larger than 2.5 inches. I'm not short anyway, so it's not a huge deal.

There is nothing I love wearing more than a good black turtleneck (preferably cashmere) and a long string of vintage pearls with my jeans. All the jewelry I wear is vintage, and I wear scarves ALL THE TIME. It's kind of what I'm known for. The way to go with those is vintage too. Even if you buy high end, there will never be the same quality of items made now as there was in the past.

Also, I will never own enough nicely tailored tweed jackets.
