Love the last dress! Agree there is a glam element to your style as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personamoniker-long#post-2179202 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 00:22:55 +0000 Anonymous 2179202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>rachylou&nbsp;</b>and&nbsp;<b>Cardiff girl</b>, you’re totally right, there is a glam element! Particularly a retro sort of glam. While I’m comfortable dressed down, wear lots of tomboy outfits, and can enjoy paint on my clothes, I don’t like wearing RATE looks and prefer to have a femme vibe overall. I’ve got to think about how to describe this aspect. Maybe “Audrey Hepburn tries psychedelics” ha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personamoniker-long#post-2179201 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 00:00:32 +0000 slim cat 2179201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful looks! I like "sassy fairy" - there is something about your haircut, your fun posing and all those adorable accessories ( like whimsical shoes and great jewelry ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personamoniker-long#post-2179189 Sun, 14 Mar 2021 23:42:10 +0000 Cardiff girl 2179189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would echo Rachylou that there is definitely an element of glamour in there.Paticularly the shorts shot,very old fashioned Hollywood starlet.Probably not the vibe you are going for but an interesting element to your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personamoniker-long#post-2179182 Sun, 14 Mar 2021 23:31:18 +0000 Jonesy 2179182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your personas, moniker, and style subsets really capture your creativity! And your outfits you've posted thus far mirror your reflections. "Art Teacher on Holiday" is an awesome moniker :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personamoniker-long#post-2179031 Sun, 14 Mar 2021 19:15:48 +0000 rachylou 2179031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it. I love style moniker stuff. I find them so helpful to point me in the direction of my own style and that of others... it occurs to me that you remind me of Annette Bening (she was one of the people who spoke at my graduation ) - artistic but also very glamorous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personamoniker-long#post-2179022 Sun, 14 Mar 2021 19:07:15 +0000 Anonymous 2179022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all! I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend. As a longtime reader of the blog/forum but an infrequent commenter, I have done a lot of my thinking behind the scenes. Since the downtime created by the pandemic has given me the space to really start participating here more, I figure that I should write more of my reflections out - both as a record for myself and to connect with everyone here. So this is part one in what I’m sure will be a series of long, rambling posts about my reflections over the past year. Any and all ideas, thoughts, questions and suggestions are welcomed! I’m starting off with my personas/monikers/statements as a foundation.&nbsp;</p> <p> <div><div><b>FASHION PERSONAS</b></div><div> </p> <ul> <li>Modern Classic</li> <li>Artistic Eclectic</li> <li>Bohemian Hippie</li> <li>Trendy Fashionista</li> <li>Girly Tomboy</li> <li>Romantic Eclectic</li> </ul> <p>These are the personas that I see in my style. If you see something else I would love to hear it!</p> </p> <p><b>MONIKER</b></p> </p> <ul> <li><b></b><b>Art teacher on holiday</b> - This is number one, and the one that encompasses the rest of my looks. Everything listed below can be done as a subset of this, in my mind. Descriptive words are comfortable, easy, unfussy, bright, arty, whimsical, retro, gamine, cool.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p></div><div></div></div><div><div><b>STYLE SUBSETS</b></div><div> </p> <ul> <li><b>Ballerina off duty&nbsp;</b>- This is my most basic, pared down style and consists of men’s button down shirts, leggings, and ballet flats. I am comfortable wearing more neutrals and solid colors with this look. This is my girly tomboy style.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <ul> <li><b>Maximal rainbow minimalist&nbsp;</b>- I prefer colorful statement pieces with lots of pattern, shine, or interesting detail, but I don’t like to have too many items overall. Most of my items are colorful and maximal while my wardrobe as a whole is minimal.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <ul> <li><b>Boho-lite sprite&nbsp;</b>- I frequently veer into too-boho while shopping and have to remind myself that those looks don’t get worn. Boho-lite, in my bright colors rather than the typical earth tones, is a good zone for me. This is the aspect of my style that includes the ethereal essence. I picture a sassy fairy - it’s a little bit Tinkerbell.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <ul> <li><b>Quirky vintage classic&nbsp;</b>- This is the aspect that appreciates classic items like button downs, ballet flats, cardigans, shirtdresses, and the like, plus prints like plaid, polka dots, and stripes. I prefer classic with a twist, which is why I love Kate Spade handbags and shoes. This is also the part that loves platonic ideal items, such as the&nbsp;quintessential white Converse high top, wool duffle coat, wood-heeled clog, etc.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <div>It feels good to have the moniker and statements defined! Next round I’ll elaborate on my wardrobe analysis over the past year. Attached are some photos from the past two years that give examples of my style.&nbsp;</div><br /> </div></div> </p>
