Style?

Like a specific look? do you always wear trendy stuff always? are you super casual?


At work I am considered "downtown trendy"..

my boss who ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS wears a hat and white gloves is a "classic"

Re: Do you think you have a type of ?

I think I have always been considered more on the bohemian front, although I have heard the words "funky" dropped in my direction from time to time...

I went from wearing all black, to clubby (in my teens and early twenties) and then back to black... and then sort of mix and match with whatever I fell in love with - crazy colors, sober solids, and everything in between...

I think it all got mixed up in the wash, and i'm an eclectic of sorts - but when push comes to shove, I think the bohemain/hippyish look is what has stuck the longest!

Wow, I love when women dress like that. My grandmother never left the house without her head covered and pantyhose.

I think my style is neat and boring! I never look totally trendy but I don't dress like an old fart either. I have a few classic staples that I mix and match.

On the weekends I always wear those GAP extra long T shirts with a pair of tight jeans. I wear button downs or sweaters with slacks to work. I think these items make me look good and I feel pretty when I wear them. I am up to date but not trendy although I would like to be more stylish!

I usually wear things that are classic and timeless but I do buy some trendy pieces to keep my look fresh and modern.

You know MY answer Chat Icon

I also think that if I work in NYC, things would be different.

My job is bus casual so I do get away with more casual then Prof look.

Weekends I dress down for comfort and look neat but "stylish" and "trendy"-no but I would like to be as well.

My thinking of having "style" and "trend"
is you need money to do that and I just learned the past two day that you dont.

You can get trendy accessories at the flea market and cheaper stores

I would say my style is classic/preppy but I will incorporate the seasons trends just not go trendy from head to toe. If that makes any sense...Chat Icon

pretty much all the clothing i own is from that store. i buy the occasional piece from target, but i get so many coupons from NY & Co, and i fit into their clothes so well, that i really don't go anywhere else.

I always invest money in classic pieces and get "trendy" stuff on sale to fill in. Like a trendy top w/classic trousers & a jacket.

Plain! In the winter, I wore a lot of solid pants with solid sweaters Chat Icon

Now, I'm practically an Ann Taylor Loft manequin, b/c I work nearby , and I only seem to have time to shop at lunch.

Re: Do you think you have a type of ?

For work: classic with a feminine touch...like my suits have some sort of color and my skirts have pleats

Weekends (pre-baby_ i was always trendy---but usually one trend (not like these chicks with 1000 trends at one time)--also, I usually wore stuff before EVERYONE did and then I would get annoyed and NOT wear the trendChat Icon
