Angie's post today and some of the responses have me thinking about a number of things. One of them is about the length of time something needs to be a part of your style before you can declare it as your "signature"? I have had a short pixie hair cut for 4 decades, so that seems self evident. It's a signature style. Where should we draw the "time" line? I have used the same color palette for almost three years. Is that too short a time for a signature color palette? At what point can we declare that something is our signature? I would like to say that wearing wrap dresses over slip dresses and then putting a long cardigan over the top is one of my signature looks, but it isn't something I have done for years. It is something I haven't seen many other people do. Does it make it a signature if it's newish but also unique to you?

I found myself drawing on something that wasn't part of my style adjectives. A quality that I called "fluttery motion like a circle skirt when you twirl around". It's something that I know my signature style has but it's hard to capture in a still photo or even with my list of single items. Somehow, I find a need to add some sensory descriptors which I have not seen anyone else use before. This is more than texture and layers, it's movement, and swishing sounds and the soft clanging of Bangles. perhaps there is some music and motion to my signature? Did anyone else struggle with this or am I out here alone?
