I tend to dress very classic. While I may throw in a few trendy pieces or colors, overall I like to dress in minimalist (meaning mostly solids or very very simple prints) flatteringly cut clothing. I tend to shop at Bebe (but only for pants), French Connection, Anthropologie, and beyond that nicer department stores like Saks and Bloomingdales. In the winter (I live up north) I generally wear pants and a merino or cashmere V neck sweater over an oxford shirt, in the summer, a sundress or a skirt and tank top.

Lately "is this my style?" has been answered by three questions.

Is it clean? Yes.
Does it need ironed? No.
Does my butt still fit into it? Yes.

If it passes those three tests, I'm good to go.

Maybe if the temperature gets above 60 here, I will be in the mood to wear summer clothes!

I love my Daisy Duke cut off shorts paired with a skimpy spaghetti strap t-shirt with our letters on it. I just love to make guys drool over me http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

T shirt, khakis

There is only one major difference between how guys and girls decide on what to wear. The ladies hold their clothes up to their body and guys hold their clothes up to their nose.

Casual Cute. For day to day, I'm usually in bootcut jeans, a fitted shirt, and sandals. For work, its The Limited and Lerner all the way. The only time I wear gym shoes is summer--with jeans or shorts and tees--and that's on a "bad" day.

Depends on the environment, or what I am doing. At work its Khakis and button down (Lots o Starch - luv me a heavily starched brushed cotton)w/tie. After work I collapse into one of my 3 pairs of cargo shorts, (AF/Gap), or Soccer shorts. Tshits, any chapter or school shcirt will do, but I always wear 2 tshirts. I am wierd like that. An under -tshirt, old and beginning to grey, with the sleves cut off, then a nicer mixer shirt or rush shirt over that. If I am going out casually, I'll put a gap pullover on with the shorts. If it is evening, I'll throw the Khakis or CK jeans on. If going out. Its all about dressing up usually. Black hacking pants from 'Nana, and button down or nice pullover with chunkers (shoe). The rest of the tiem its Khakis (Flat front from 'nana) and red wings.

Also I dont wear much jewlry, but Wear my chapter ring, and a cool bracelet that I got (both) from James Avery Craftsman (Can you believe they dont have a webpage) but if you are from the south or south west, you have heard of them. I only wear silver jewlery. Gold doesnt look good on me and I have 2 FAB-O fake TAGS that keep great time. One black face all siver and the other white face, all silver. Bought them in Mexico. As hard as I am on watches, I'll wait till someone loves me enough to spend the cash on the real deal.

My style is basiaclly preppy. I shop at the gap and j crew and occacionally A&F

My style is defintely trendy...I'm a shop-a-holic! My clothes are from Rampage, Windsor (great store with trendy, unique styles and adorable formal dresses), Arden B., and Bebe. I usually dress up for class unless it's Friday (no Friday classes this semester though!). If I don't feel like dressing up, I throw on my Express black comfy drawstring pants and DG t-shirt with my hair up in a ponytail. Though I think I may dress more casual this semester just so I can wear one of the three pairs of cute sneakers I just got!

Cool! I start working at the Gap on Saturday! :D Can't wait for that discount!!

I have a diverse sense of style, but I never buy anything that is trendy and I never get trendy haircuts.

I have been the same size for a long time, so I can wear my clothes until they are too worn to wear them anymore. I like jeans and t-shirts if I am not trying to impress anyone, just sitting around or running errands. I also love the way jeans look with going-out-boots (the black ones) a white or black shirt and an awesome necklace. I like to have sort of a focal point...like this necklace that I have, I love it!:

When I am less casual, I like clothes from The Limited (their pants fit me like they are custom made...awesome). I also like Banana, although now that I am on my own, my trips there will be to the sale rack only since my mom used to do the buying! Same thing for Ann Taylor and Petite Sophisticate...my mom always wants me to dress from those places, but they are expensive!

Where's the love for H&M??? All of my clothes come from there, that store is amazing!! They don't have it in the south yet, so I go through withdrawl while I'm at school, but there's a ton in the NY/NJ area and hopefully it'll spread! I like to think of myself as classy-trendy, and H&M works well for that... you all should totally check it out! I could LIVE there!

*C*

Hey MVP4GPB, I like H&M too, mostly for its cool, inexpensive accesories. I was just at the one in the village (NYC) and you can just get sucked into that place...it took us a while to get out of there!

My clothes are from Express, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, some dept store brands(non famous), XOXO, and my favorite store GUESS!! I always feel guilty when i shop so i always try to make sure the clothes are on sale that i buy. Some victoria's secret! And American Eagle(best boxersleep shorts for females). I love to dress all types of ways except anything too skimpy.

My "style" is very much a mix of SoCal surfer girl and NY socialite. ( I grew up in Chicago and now live right smack dab in the center of white-collar Snottsdale Arizona).

My daytime wear consists of three staples: capri pants, tank tops, and flip flops.

Yes, capris are still in here. I'm not a fan of shorts, and it's too hot for pants, so I'm in heaven. I'm also not a fan of printed pants, so they're all either denim, khacki, or black linen.

As for tanks, I've got more than I can count. Most in shades of black, purple, and blue. Halters, spaghetti strap, sweater, wife beater, you name the tank style, I've got it. For tanks I like GAP, Urban Outfitters, Old Navy, and Bebe.

And my flip flops. I've got everything from cute Old Navy ones to Bebe thongs. Gotta love em. My favorite are Sanoks that have a slight heel to them and a leather upper. I've also NEVER gone wrong with GAP flips.

As for accessories, I almost always wear a hemp/puka shell choker and a Tiffany heart bracelet and Claddaugh ring my ex gave me.

I've never had another pair of sunglasses I liked more than my black mantis Arnettes.

If I'm going to class, I have a Kenneth Cole messenger bags. I'm just out during the day, I take my Kate Spade purse.


For night time and less than casual events. I have my black club pants and an assortment of more formal tops and tanks, mostly in black. For shoes, I love Kenneth Cole and Nine West, but I'd be remiss not to mention the black Manolo pumps I've got hiding in their box in the closet. (They only come out on special occasions). With all that stays the Tiffany bracelet and ring, but instead of a choker I have a silver snake rope necklace with a big chunky star on it. I HATE HATE HATE wearing dresses, so this outfit is my preferred, but alas there is pref night and formal where I have to pull out my little black number.

Sorry so long!
