Monday Matters: How do you define your clothing style?

[Former_Member]

With no end in sight to the winter weather here in Brooklyn, I feel like I'll be wearing the same thick sweaters and heavy coats forever. I'm definitely looking forward to switching it up a bit, so today I wanted to talk about style.

I'm a jeans, collared shirt, and sweater kind of guy, preferably with some cool sneakers. I tend to stick to the basics -- classic and nothing too flashy.

How do you define your clothing style?

Modern classic? Pencil skirts, clean lines, no frippery, no frills, mostly shades of black and white and gray with bright gemstone colors (gee, I wonder why??). Audrey Hepburn updated for today's style, I suppose. :D

That's when I'm actually dressing - at home, I tend to wear blue jeans and t-shirts - either long sleeve or short sleeve. I've got three kids - one is ten months old - and making soldered jewelry does not lend itself to wearing nice clothes. Neither does soap making.

My style is hot mess or thrift store chic (that's wear 90% of my clothes come from). Today I'm wearing a basic grey, long sleeved dress that comes to my knees, plus black and grey leopard tights and ankle boots. But if you would see the rest of my clothes!

I rarely ever wear jeans any more, I'm into different colored pants (I got mint, flowers, teal, black). And I love my giant sweaters and tights.

I do own some classy dresses that I picked up at the thrift store for cheap that I never wear. I've been waiting to go out somewhere nice, but alas, no one to go with and no money to spend. :(

I'm a casual dresser. Usually jeans and jumpers in winter and linen trousers and t.shirts in summer. Im a potter so everything needs to be easy to wash and wear and darker colours which don't show the dust. I do love hot summers when I can wear shorts and sandles. Very, very casual.

Style? Jeans & usually a t-shirt. Today long sleeves and cozy socks as it's "cold" here in SoCal today.

I love jeans and hoodies/cardigans, but I'm most comfortable in shorts and a t-shirt... unfortunately the canadian weather only lets me get away with it 2 months of the year -_-'

If I was going to work, I'd probably throw on a dress because I hate dress pants and blazers...

[TonicAndLimeDesigns]

I'm a total jeans and sneakers kind of girl. I could live in t-shirts and hoodies. When I'm at home though it's pajama pants all the way ;)

[TwistedKnickersInc]

Housecoat! I work from home and start very early in the morning. Mid morning I take a break and dress. My style is preferably romantic. I like designer leggings and frilly tops, vintage skirts and zippers.

[GirlpowerKnits]

Classic with mid-american and victorian flair. (if I had lived 120 years ago...)

Life calls for tees and tops for easy washability. Lol

[MarleyMylesArt]

I dress by mood and feeling – this can be anything from frilly bloomers and striped socks to rockabilly dresses, vintage inspired dresses to doc martens and grungey nostalgia to subtle punk rock vibes…I also LOVE to be in my pyjamas! I have been genetically cursed to never be able to wear jeans…I think I am the only person I know that can’t wear them, therefore leggings are my BEST friend!

[LeMava]

Well, I have a lot of skirts and dresses, I don`t like jeans and pants. Even in Ukrainian cold winter, I wear skirt =)

Well, I think my style can name like little boho, little gothic, little tribal. I`m in love with tribal and other statement jewelry (a lot of jewelry - really a lot!).
And I love closing that gives accent to my waist.

Classic jeans and t shirt (never white though, because it guarantees spills) with random antique or otherwise fabulous jewelry.
I have a couple of retro/rockabilly pieces that I wear when I'm happy, and my old Blyer dance shoes (1940s look, super comfy) are my summer footwear.
hardly any makeup, because it's too much trouble to keep up. Plus I nearly always stab myself in the eye with the mascara wand.

[livjewellery]

I have two distinct styles: work-at-home Jen and going-out-for-dinner Jen. Work-at-home Jen is all about comfort: sweat and tanks in the summer, sweats and sweaters in the winter. I like soft, warm socks and slippers this time of year - anything that is comfortable.

Going-out Jen is when I break out the pretty clothes. I like details: sequins, small ruffles, rich colours and soft fabrics. High heels. Oh, and jewellery, of course. :)

[Anthropologeek]

Comfy, but put together... Well, at least I think so... LOL!

I work in a professional, business setting so I have to wear dark slacks and a dressy top most of the week. After work or on weekends it's jeans and a t-shirt, nothing fancy.

While we're on the topic of clothing, I wanted to share a brand new article from the Etsy Blog: 4 Top Tips for Selling Clothing on Etsy

T shirts, shorts, Sperry's.... and the occasional the one pair of jeans I own if I absolutely have to. Business casual Sunday morning. That's about it.

[IldiVintage]

I have a split personality look.
On one side I love the 70s so boho hippie it is.... jeans and made in India tribal tops.

On the other side I love Hawaiian influenced clothing....palm trees, hawaiian shirts, skirts with large bold botanicals. Depends on my mood what I will wear.

In Hungary our weather is not so cold so it is easy to dress in a bohemian style.

[LiLinspirations]

I would say my style is classic with a bit of trendy thrown in to keep it current - and a touch of elegance to stay fabulous. Wear clothing makes you feel good about yourself - no matter what the style.

[BetaMenswear]

Adventurous, outdoorsy style. We are girl and boy who run this shop and we both dress very similar, actually :) Buffalo plaid jackets, leather and canvas backpacks, well worn vintage Levis, some flannels or minimalist corduroy shirts and good leather footwear.

[XZOUIX]

90s vintage meets contemporary minimalism. i define my self and the clothes that i make as dark boho. i love black clothes with an edge in combo with minimalist or antique jewelry

Give me jeans and a t-shirt and I am set for the day. To dress up I wear long maxi skirts. For me, it about moving freely and being comfortable. Flat shoes, no high heels on my feet.

[RaquelManuela]

I have been putting together a Pinterest board on style... It's what I want my style to be like, when spring comes and I finally get out of my house. :)

Eccentric and depending on my mood I'll choose what I wear.

[SonjasSilks]

Very casual style. Jeans and sweaters with boots or sneakers.
Fashion comes alive in the Spring. I'm beyond ready for the Spring thaw.
