What's your style?

Formal/opulent? Rustic/outdoorsy? Contemporary? Euro? Country?

Mine are “understated elegance” and “classic casual.” My stainless steel Seiko quartz watch, simple and clean. My 20 year old Rockport’s…timeless. My maple futon with colorful but subdued contemporary print cover. My framed Maher Morcos Venice print. My gray rugby pullover with stonewashed jeans.

Luxurious/formal looks just seem ostentatious to me. Old pickups and log cabins just don’t have the touch of refinement I like. The European design flair is just a bit funky for my American eyes. Even if I try to learn to like other styles, I can’t seem to…I guess there’s something built-in about it.

What are your style-type preferences?

Debate coach tacky. Jeans, Hawaiian shirt, sneakers. No watch. House is filled with eclectic crap, books and cats. Refinement is for oil.

The art of fighting without fighting.

I don’t follow style; I make it. And I don’t care if anyone follows it or not.

Old Navy Discount.

Casual, comfortable, and nondescript.

**Chefguy **does win the thread, though.

When I make a point to “get dressed” I am usually following the style of “does this make my boobs look as big as they can be?”

Thrift store chic and unique. And I am very good at it.

Carnaby Street Psychobilly.

“Homeless guy who will most likely kill you if you try and speak to him”.

Unless I’m going someplace nice. Then it’s more of a “decently presentable guy who could probably deal with a bit of a beard trim”.

Aging hippie heteroclite.

Today’s outfit consists of faded Dickies bib overalls, faded red/pink henley, red Converse All Stars, cashmere argyle socks, Burberry trench coat, and a Borsalino fedora … shaved three days ago and last had a haircut somewhere around five years back.

This post is full of words that I know one-by-one, but make no meaningful sense in the order in which it’s written. :wink:

Carhartt, Dickies, North Face, Eddie Baur, Columbia, Keen, Redwing, Duluth Trading.

I have absolutely no style.

No style here, either (she types, wearing plaid boxers, white v-neck tee, and a 20 year old threadbare grey sweatshirt). Since I no longer have a need to dress up, I don’t. The cats don’t care what I look like as long as I feed them.

My house has modern American furniture next to antiques next to thrift shop finds. According to friends, my house is ‘comfy’.

Edwardian Bauhaus

My style is knowing how to use apostrophes correctly.

I’m sick and grouchy and* everything is pissing me off*.

Shabby chic. Color-coordinated eclectic, almost-antique. With an industrial twist.

Artsy-fartsy
