				<description>&#060;p&#062;I have not been so organized as to think of 1 word but I can really embrace your concept.&#060;br /&#062;
Thought provoking post. Thank you!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;This is a wonderful choice for you, &#060;b&#062;Irina&#060;/b&#062;. I think your style is already refined, but it seems you have identified ways to refine it still further, and this makes so much sense. I love the idea of your juxtapositions and a bit more tailoring again. I think the trick is always finding just the *right* tailored items for a casual lifestyle. It takes some practice and I have not yet achieved my own balance. Fabrication helps, of course, but largely it is a matter of cut. Lots to think about!&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I haven't picked my own word or colour yet but will be putting my mind into it in the next few weeks. Thanks for getting us started.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Great choice for you Irina!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I can see how this can relate to consumption of many forms from media, to clothing to even emotions.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I will reflect back soon, at the moment we are still in crazyland - but I could do with some refinement of what I let shock and frustrate me:)

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Well you know I'm going to love the word REFINE, it was THE one word that I also chose back in my previous post last spring about &#060;i&#062;Defining your Style in One Word&#060;/i&#062;.  I love the sounds of you playing with juxaposition in conjunction with refinement. You always have a good eye for great style with simplicity.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;REFINED for my particular style means being well-put-together, polished, with clean lines and a good fit. This word is now a key part of my styling DNA when adding anything new to my wardrobe or deciding how I put my outfits together. I’m keeping it for 2026 and beyond.&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I love how your style is always evolving.  You don't get stuck.  As a big fan of juxtaposition I like the sound of where it is going.  No word for me but I am thinking about colour palette.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I don’t really follow the colour or word of the year themes here . I do relate to the word “ refinement “ though - in fact quite a lot . You always strike me as very refined so I think your “ journey “ will be easy and organic .

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I don’t usually choose a word. I am feeling a bit unmoored however having recently finished in the workplace where I have been working for more than half my life! I am not sure I am quite ready to finish work altogether but am taking a good break over our summer.&#060;br /&#062;
I guess I will have lots of time to choose a word? I like yours, it suits you.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I admire your thoughtfulness Irina. Refined is such a good word because it implies care and judgment. I have not thought about my word yet but you have planted a seed.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Refine.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/b&#062;&#060;br /&#062;&#060;div&#062;I don’t always search for a guiding word for a new year. But this year I feel I need it. This word will help me to set up some goals or intentions for the year to come.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;I’m changing my style a bit. I missed tailored clothes and added a couple of blazers. It’s been probably 7-8 years since my previous purchase. Classic cut tops worn with baggy jeans is another silhouette I enjoyed this year.&#038;nbsp;&#060;br /&#062;&#038;nbsp;I want to play into juxtaposition of casual and formal more.&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;I want to be inspired and determined to edit my wardrobe to reflect where I am going in my fashion journey.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;I want to add more special or more &#060;b&#062;refined &#060;/b&#062;(to me) pieces.&#038;nbsp;&#060;b&#062;&#060;br /&#062;&#060;/b&#062;&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;I want to use my clothes better.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;I hope to be&#038;nbsp;&#060;b&#062;refined&#038;nbsp;&#060;/b&#062;in the next year :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Have you given a thought about your word for the new year?&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;&#060;br /&#062;&#060;/div&#062;&#060;div&#062;&#060;br /&#062;&#060;/div&#062;
