Someone recently asked me this question and I stared at them, clueless. I considered admitting that I rarely buy new clothing, intimates aside. I shop in thrift stores, out of necessity, yes, and also because I like it. Thrifting for style is both cost-effective and environmentally-kind. I suppose this means my style is what I can afford and/or hunt down.
All the same, I felt as if I should know.
So I considered my favorite pieces of clothing, second-hand all: a pair of faded Lucky jeans, a hand-made tie-dye tunic, an army green tank top, a floral-print summer dress, and a gray Ya-Ya alpaca-knit sweater. These are, hands down, what I prefer to wear most. Along with my sandals and boho bag. (You can see why I dislike winter.)
Basically, if I can paint in it I'm good to go.

I found some pictures that would best define my style, if I could only find it second-hand (please disregard the decapitated models). As it happens, the clothing style I like best is by Free People.

Hey La-La!
ReplyDeleteRight now my favorite thing to wear includes smooth and stretch cotton long sleeve fitted t-shirts made by Splash!
This winter I am sporting layered underclothing like leggins, tights, and even stetch yoga pants to keep me warm! But preference is a must and yesterday I cut the feet out of my tights because I just could not deal with how some tights sooo uncomfortably utilize gravity to end up at the ankles.
Well gee. Clothing that defines me also includes going bra-less. Bras are the most uncomfortable invention in THE WORLD!Yeah I know they look sexy, colorful, and enhancing but realistically when I have one on...it is the all I can do to keep it on!
Dig your style thrift store or not, you always look awesome
ReplyDeleteThrift stores all the way!
ReplyDeleteI love ross, i have a terriable sweater fetish and get a ton there. I have a hippee/ vintage thing going, i know it sounds weird but it works. If i was younger i would do the steampunk fashion.
I liked every picture you posted there, i would wear every one of them.
Lauren, wait a few years and maybe you'll be able to shop the pile of kid's outgrown. My style is best described as boys' closet.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny! I actually do love wearing little boys t-shirts. . . dinosaurs and all.
ReplyDeleteI was once looking into forearm bird tattoos...
