I loooveee wearing heels because they can transform your entire outfit, you can look more elgant in a minute!!! My make up is very important too cause it defines your look. I like to watch fashion tv shows, magazines and going to the mall just to see how people is dressed up, what´s in the stores, etc. My style is very elegant I would say, eventhough it´s good to be in pants and a shirt some times

I really like the office look :). That's what I wear to school most of the year, in graver, darker colors. At home I enjoy shorter skirts, shorts, or light skirts of lighter colors. I love heels!!!

I've been thinking about nails a lot lately, and come up with a few tips:

1) in the summer, wear lighter nail colors with a little sparkle in them, for example light blue, light pink, a very light shade of lemon yellow, light purple. Pair these with lighter clothing of lighter colors. Avoid saturated colors, use those easter-ish shades of the colors.

2) for some reason, to me personally green of any shade doesn't seem a good color for nails.

3) in the winter, wear darker nail polish, but if you're not goth, black wouldn't be a really good choice. Dark, saturated blue, burgundy, or purple with sparkles (but not huge, conspicuous sparkles) would be good with the darker colors of clothing that tend to be worn in the winter.

4) red and orange, especially vibrant shades, repell me as possible nail colors; avoid red because it tends to get you stereotyped in a lot of unwanted ways.

For summer, nice light colors, and light cloth, too. Jeans are fine. Hair out, and lay off on the makeup. Sunny outfits.

For spring,same as summer, but try to use more greens and blues.

For winter, dramatic eyeliner,and darker colors, such as burgundy, black, grey,and brown. Try patterns. Also hairstyles and heels.

Fall is the time for leaf colors, such as reds, yellows, and oranges. Pair these with jeans or black skirts.

This is just my style...

for me, its nothing goddy. like big rings, embelishments, and things like that. its too distracting.

i love bows, polka dots, floral prints, flowers, and the tiny little dainty things.

i love girly colors, pastels, and never anything black, grey, brown, and ESPECIALLY navy. blech. :P

i <3 dresses. you'll never catch me dead in printed jeans.

no heels. flats, sandels. i like to flaunt my shortness.

small acessories. cute things. mostly necklaces and bracelets.

light makeup. never eyeliner, or too much eyeshadow. makeup embraces your natural beauty, its not to cover it.

this is my own personal style. not too much. just enough. its my own. :)

I change with my mood, but most of my clothing comes from charity shops, my sewing maching or weird goth shops, so I've got a very gothy, indie, neon style that constantly changes...

I like bright neon colours, such as neon fluffy leg warmers shaped like bell bottoms, with a matching skirt, but other times I like gothic corsets, and there are the days when I just laze around in my jeans.

A trick I've found with boring jeans is to wear an intresting shirt or a dress over them, dresses over blue jeans look great.

My hair is annoying, normally I plait it, I can't be bothered with dye, the smell gives me a headache.

To be honest you shouldn't wear anything if you're not comfortable or cold or something. I can't understand the girls who go out in winter wearing mini skirts and boob tubes :/

So any other weird gothic neon indies out there? :D

I dress in light colors, Where I live if you dress in black you'll die from heat so I have to. My newest clothes I bought at Old Navy, I am a sucker for knit vests. I have to have them with every outfit, I also love floral patterns.

I have an obsession with scarves and hats

I don't really care for shoes unlike a lot of different women I know, I wear comfy shoes not fashionable ones.

I find my inspiration in different things moslty I take bits and pieces of different things and put them together, Like I'll see a shirt in a magazine then pair it with a pair of shorts from somewhere else. Though I do like the sweet lolita fashions of Japan.

Makeup I usually do on my own, I can come up with my own looks in my head.

and @ Andi, I used to be one! :D

Current Obsession; 80's flair! :)

Angel sleeves, colorful clinched sleeved crop jackets, big hoops, and big hair :)

Colorful patterns, and BIG belts :)

The 80's style is super fun and comfortable too. I get lots of comments on my occasional 80's accesories from my Mama!

A fun peice to do with hair is a briad, or other sort of texture in the hair (curls, kinks, etc) and a single flower. It can add a bit of "pizazz" to a bland look.

My style, hmm.. I don't really know, because I try everything. However, my classmates and friends constantly have said I am more of the cute and casual look.

In school, I try to vary my look. I try to mix and match all the stuff I have in my closet (and my mom's sometimes, hehe) to make a look that would be considered "different" or out of the the ordinary.

My favorite styles are going to school as a teenager in the 70s, a schoolgirl, and dressing elegantly with skirts and blouses.

My current obsession are knee high socks and sweater vests =D

My advice is to dress the way you want, and flaunt it all out. Be confident in what you wear, because even though the outfit may be ugly to someone or silly, if you are happy with it, it makes it beautiful and that's what matters. If you are happy, it will reflect how you show off your look. Also, have fun with your style. Be daring to try something new. After all, what you wear represents you. Who knows, maybe someone will think you are amazing with your sense of style. =D
