i have a weird dress sense. i'm aware of this.
but people often compliment my outfits.
i'm not afraid to wear what nobody else is.

a lot of 40's, 50's & 60's retro stuff, vintage and retro. thigh length sweaters worn as dresses. knee or thigh length socks. bold colours & prints. ever changing hair colour and style. i don't follow fashion and getting funny looks doesn't worry me.

i couldn't really sum up my style because it's all over the shop. every day it depends on my mood.

but you should still try to sum up yours!
 
I'm all over the place as well.
One day, I'll be in a retro mood and wear a 50's dress with boots... the next day, I'll be slouching in Thai fisherman pants and a batik shirt, barefoot.
Lately though, I've been wearing more tailored styles of clothing - dress pants with a cinched top and a jacket, that sort of thing.
And in the last year, my hair has been almost normal :eek:
I like eclectic styles. They add interest to the world.
 
I dress girly with a good helping of tough. Biker boots and leggings, sundresses and leather bracelets, long maxi dresses with leather jackets.

I wear a lot of belts, scarves and bracelets. I shun most other accessories.
 
I really like to be comfortable. In cooler weather, I'm all about jeans and sweaters or layered tops with boots. In the summer, I live in flowy dresses or skirts and tank tops with flip flops. I go big with my jewelry...funky, chunky rings and cuffs and bracelets, hoop or chandelier-style earrings, layered necklaces of beads or leather.

ETA: I forgot hair, too. Mine is currently auburn and mid-back length, and I've been letting it have its naturally curly way...I haven't straightened it in months. I want bangs again...longish ones.

I forgot hair! Mine is long, dark, dark red with blonde highlights. I either straighten it or leave it curly. There is no in between. I've had almost every hair color under the sun, natural and not.
 
I love bold colours and I like to clash them against each other or accent with other, like spring greens & purples, fuchsia pink & black, emerald greens and creams. Skirts, dresses. Big accent on shoes and accessories.
 
i tend to only accessorise with silver. either girly flat pumps, retro 40's style heels, or knee high boots. i'm not huge on handbags & scarves & such.
 
These are are beautiful. I'd probably throw a big black belt on the sweater dress and wear bright tights and combat boots with it.

I think for girls who aren't "slim" adding things to emphasize a waist or a bust is essential.
i should buy some belts. i own two and they're for holding up jeans :eek:

i'd wear it with long socks and either knee high boots or flat pumps.

...some days my daughter just looks at me, sighs and says ''what are you wearing?!''

I've seen your striptease, I know you are in great shape, I'm sure you don't need to emphasize a thing. ;)

My daughter often says "Why do you always wear dresses and tights?". I just shrug. She's in a slouchy, pj pants and scrunched up sweats phase. Although when she does dress up, she has great style so I'm not too worried.

I get a little flak from wearing fishnets and patterned nylons a lot. Maybe it's because I work in construction but I enjoy feeling feminine.
 
i am a leggings with sundresses kind of girl. i also :heart: my cowgirl boots.
 
I could do the sweater dress with some tall knee boots. The second dress is appealing too. Yesterday I wore a sundress with a cardigan and boots. Today is tight jeans and a tshirt. With boots. Pretty much if I don't have to iron it, I'll wear it. I need boots for height. And if I'm going flat, it's snow boots. I'm good with the sewing machine, sometimes I'll tailor make some blouses or dresses. The hair? Long, auburn, curly and wild most days. Straight if I want to fight the Medusa curls.
 
I guess I'll wear whatever my mood is that day... It could be jeans and a t-shirt, or a cute girly dress... or tights with over-the-knee boots and a long t-shirt... I follow fashion that suits me.
 
Damn... where were all you women hiding back when I was "in the hunt." I will also add that boots are HOT on any woman, especially the ones with the killer heels... :D
