I also put fun, because I include silly pins, dog and bird scarves, etc. If playful is supposed to refer to your jewelry, what about accessorized? It seems closer to me, but as Elizabeth said, it is what makes sense to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1883046 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 18:29:40 +0000 Elizabeth P 1883046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The only word I would question is "playful".&nbsp; I understand you want something to bring in your use of pattern or jewellery, but I don't really see that as playful.&nbsp; Nor do I think of your style as what _I_ think of as playful.&nbsp; Does that make any sense?&nbsp; But really, it doesn't matter what I think, it's whether the words work for YOU! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1883025 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 17:51:11 +0000 Lynn 1883025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know you style well enough yet to comment on the appropriateness your words but just wanted to say I like your definition of practical.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1883022 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 17:48:02 +0000 rachylou 1883022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good stuff! I’m also wary of girliness. I seek to be frilly only in mind... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1883018 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 17:35:40 +0000 kkards 1883018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm finding these exercises very&nbsp;enlightening...they're helping me see things in a different way...</p> <p>for example, my 1st thought was that sleek and playful don't "go" together...but reading thru the rest of your adjectives' and thinking about&nbsp;some of&nbsp;your WIW posts, I see what you are getting at...&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1883004 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 16:43:19 +0000 Angie 1883004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You nailed it.

I think you've captured your style really well! Can't think how you'd improve on them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1882804 Thu, 25 Jan 2018 22:42:17 +0000 Sal 1882804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of these -you have it nailed!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-adjectives#post-1882666 Thu, 25 Jan 2018 17:24:38 +0000 Sara L. 1882666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I came up with Relaxed Polish for a style moniker and now I’m thinking about key adjectives. Here’s what I have so far (which may change as I think about this more):</p> <p><b><u></u></b><u>Practical</u><b></b><u> </u>– This doesn’t mean wearing shoes that I can walk 3 miles in every day. It means wearing the appropriate clothing for the situation. Sneakers for soccer games, heels for work, boots for cold weather, etc.</p> <p><b><u></u></b><u>Modern</u><b></b> – I like to stay current and play around with some of the current trends.</p> <p><u>Feminine</u> – I’m not comfortable in any clothing or shoes that are too masculine. This doesn’t mean girly or cute though.</p> <p><u>Playful</u> – I’m using this to bring in the pattern and bling element of my outfits. I generally don’t like to wear solid blocks of color so I need some pattern or bling to break things up. Almost all my outfits involve jewelry of some sort and I feel incomplete without at least one piece – usually a necklace but also bracelets, earrings, and rings.</p> <p><u>Sleek</u> – This goes along with Polish but also works to keep me away from ruffles and anything too cute.</p> <p>What do you all think?&nbsp; I found the comments on my previous post on Style Monikers to be extremely helpful and insightful.</p> <p> </p>
