clothes.


That sounds like a good Friday topic.


Do you think you have good style?

I too find myself wearing a lot more color than I used to. I also find myself a little more comfortable with being a little more revealing (like maybe a little clevage or a hint of it) but other than that, I am conservative. I think our society is showing entirely too much (and a lot that shouldn't be seen) in general.

I have a lot of tank tops, too, which is wierd because I can only wear them on the weekend or on vacation. I also have to confess, I can get into a comfort zone. I have to force myself sometimes to pay attention to fashion and what's new on the racks and in the catlogs out there. Otherwise, I just wear what's comfortable. I'm not wearing tapered jeans or anything crazy like that but I do have to remind myself to "update." :-)

Tapered jeans! The ultimate WNTW fashion sin!

I think I have pretty good fashion sense. W is my Bible LOL.

I haven't been spending as much as usual on clothing - I just haven't had the time to shop...and I have a few consignment shops in VA that I love - and I haven't had the time to get away for a weekend.

I tend to stick to lighter colors - pinks, yellows, white, light blue, etc. Pink is my fave. And I like to show a little cleavage. Not a lot, just a hint.

I don't think I own a tank top. LOL

Let's see... I asked somebody I worked with what my style was and she said trendy, yet not over the top.

I only shop at specific places, i.e. Banana Republic, Marshall Fields, Forever 21, America Eagle, Nine West...

Notice a trend?? I like to wear clothes that are fitted and the teenie bopper stores fit me better, since I am small. But I will mix that with the classic stuff from Banana.

I like to have fun with my clothes, yet still dress my age, too.

As for color, I used to wear all black. But now I like lighter colors. My favorite last year and this year is brown. Like to pair brown gauchos with a colorful top and heels. Too cute.

I have very little fashion sense. I would prefer to never have to shop again but have someone who knows what looks good on my body type shop for me - haven't found that person yet.

I usually just dress in what feels comfortable or matches! :p

Hi!!
I love shopping for clothes. I think my style is more on the simpler side. I am conservative when it comes to type of clothes. Intially I used to wear more black but lately I have switched to lighter and some bright colors also.

I like to be comfortable in personal time and classic and stylish in professional settings.

BTW Shy I really like your new picture . You look so radiant.

Given that most everyone has said that they've switched to brighter colors, I'm going to conclude that brighter colors are in fashion and we're just all very stylish!
