Dresses, short sleeveless with emphasize on the waist. Paired with heels and a great handbag.

Dark straight or bootcut denim with a nice tshirt as casual wear (blazer or cardigan)

Heels almost all the time, and the occasional wedge. Never flats

Light on the accessories, rarely any gold but I LOVE statement pieces and ethnic bold antique jewellery. Shell jewellery and pearls too.

I'd say my style is classic, simple and straight forward but pretty. I'm not one to layer things (I love the look but not the talent) I also love bohemian but can't pull it off well.

It got me thinking, because I tend to buy the same style over and over again.
I love wearing well fitting jeans black/blue/grey/white with interesting tops. I buy tops with pattern, colour, lots of detail, glitter, etc.... I wear with it blazers/jackets. I almost always wear flats, because I walk a lot.
I also like mid tights length dresses, wear them with boots or flats + blazer/jackets.
Accessories wise I wear brooches, sometimes 3-4 on my coat/jacket

I work at home, so I don't get dressed up a lot but I love designer denim with a good animal print. Love cherries, animal print and polka dots. I seem to be barefoot all summer long and always looking for a fun belt.

I don't know really what my signature style is but the best way to describe it is like Blair from Gossip Girls or Charlotte from Sex and the City. I guess you can say preppy/conservative. When I go out on the town for the night, I like to go for more of a glammed up look but never over the top. My jewelry if very understated I don't like costume jewelry. I wear everyday my diamond studs and rolex watch. I also love to wear my pearls. My nails are always short with a pale pinky neutral color and toes similar.

Honestly, my style is a mix of everything. I can't narrow it down to just one, because it really IS all over the place. My style icon is Carrie Bradshaw though, so I would say I most identify with her. She does everything, and she pulls it all off.

So my signature style is a mix of:

- bohemian indie
- motorcycle
- rock n' roll
- geek chic
- goddess/feminine (loose flowing pieces, light materials, wearing a lot of white)
- classic prep (not "A&F" preppy, Ralph Lauren preppy)

A style I know I'm not though is punk rock. It just doesn't appeal to me.

I'm not afraid to try new things and I would say I'm more NY than LA fashion, although I do love a lot of the styles I see in LA. I come from a town where people's definition of fashion is a t-shirt and sweat pants, but I know I'm one of those girls who doesn't look good like that. I never wear heels unless I'm going to a party. I like to be stylish and comfortable.

I'm a style shifter... even people I work with pick up on that. I LOVE wearing my clothes... and I can pull off funky things.

Currently my big thing is a nice smooshy cardigan over a slouchy tee, with skinny jeans or some nice denim or linen shorts, and some kind of nice flat sandal. But I feel myself beginning to fall in love with Ben Sherman designs!

The things that have lasted with me over time is my sunny style (I am classic Ray Ban all the way... with others thrown in here and there... I have over 30 pairs of sunglasses) and a great bag.

Basically, I'm comfy casual. Love topping looks off with scarves and accessories too. :)

Trendy is my signature style!
I'm very girly and love ruffles (no too much of it though)!
Minimal jewelry...I LOVE jewelry but never have the time in the mornings to put it all together. I've tried putting everything together the night before but it never fails that by the next A.M. I have changed my mind (UGH! A woman's perrogative, right???)!
I usually carry the same bag all season (too lazy to change those out too often).
And I'm almost always wearing heels (stiletto or wedge). I have a sit down job so I can get away with that. I usually only wear flats when I'm power-shopping!

EVERYDAY and EVERYWHERE except the club:
(1) Jeans (usually skinny) or TR Bobby's + cute top (50% of the time tube top) + heels/flip flops + designer bag + sunglasses + my regular jewelry (tiffany's bracelets, a watch, and a small necklace)
(2) Tights + big flowy shirt + flip flops/flats/heels/Uggs depending on mood and weather + bag and shades + my regular jewelry
(3) Dress either Maxi (I'm obsessed) or a sun dress and flip flops + + my regular jewelry

Clubs:
Usually a mini dress sandals and big blingy jewelry

In winter, and you can hardly call it winter in South Bay California, I've noticed that I tend to wear a lot of mini dresses with really dark stockings and Uggs

Brit rock, a bit of glamour, but never girly.

Everyday staples:
- Black skinnies
- Lots of black
- Band tees
- The occasional statement top
- Leather jacket when it's cool enough
- Leather bag
- Vintage roper boots
- Skullcandy headphones
- Oh, I love a good slouchy tee for lazy days

I like winter better because I can really layer it up with knits and cool coats. Did I mention I LOVE my vintage boots?

For a night out, I love a classic LBD with sky high heels, or if it's a night out at Camden, a funky vest, high-waisted skirt, tights and Converse kicks.

Very girly. I wear lots of floral dresses with sequins and diamontes. A lot of my clothes have hearts or bows. With some of the dresses, they're mainly bubble dresses or dresses in the style of Betsey Johnson.

same here, I guess I can say I change it up a lot, I go classic, eclectic/creative , bohemian, rock n roll..my style icons are gwyneth paltrow, audrey hepburn, and rachel zoe..I love great vintage and consignment finds, and I appreciate classic and comfortable looks as well like jeans, a tee and a comfortable cashmere sweater...or boots and a cashmere dress..it really depends..

Didn't read this entire thread, way too long so I might sound like many others.... I think I'm boring but occasionally I come up with a winner. Lots of pencil skirts and white shirts for work. My hubby opened my closet a few months ago and his first statement was, " honey you need a few more pairs of black pants." Lots of black. Hate prints on me, love them on others. Don't do sparkles or rhinestones. Like the trends but tend to be too afraid to try them so I end up with another pair of black pants. Joined this forum for ideas on how to switch around my wardrobe. I also love bags but am coservative in that area also. Trying to step out of my safe place!
