    All summer I tend to live in tunic dresses that hit somewhere between mid thigh and just above my knee. I've never really understood why I felt like they were so flattering, but it's totally a rule of thirds! I'm quite long of rib and my natural waist is pretty low on my frame, so I've never gotten the other way to work outside of something like an empire waist maxi dress. Thanks for the "aha" moment!

    I’ve just discovered your channel and am loving it. I moved from London to Melbourne in my early/mid 20s and then from Melbourne to country Victoria in my late 20s. That last move is where I noticed the biggest shift in dressing. I had to tone down my ‘dressiness’ quite a bit because Country Vic is just so casual and not necessarily in a stylish way. I didn’t want to stand out like a sore thumb but I also didn’t want to loose my excitement in getting dressed and feeling good in my clothes. I’m still working on it and try to have pieces that can be dressed up and down using accessories/shoes etc.

    I bought a Barbour coat as a fashion item. Barbour was a company that made rain gear for military as well as workmen at sea and on land more than 100 years ago. There were work gear people could afford at that time. Come the '80s they become a fashion brand with high price tag to match by advertising it as part of an English country lifestyle fantasy complete with photos of clean people gently walking in an open field. However, who takes a $500 coat to get ripped by thorns, scorched by campfire, and bloodied by hunted deer? Before you buy anything, be true to yourself and know if you are buying for an actual need or for an image.

    Natural&/comfortable Sophisticated & Asymmetric Harmonious And somewhere just a slight sprinkle of edgy/quirky I have a bit of a problem with my "three" words... Yesterday, when I styled an outfit and it sort of didn't work, I realized it was because it was too many masculine elements and I didn't feel feminine enough. And then when I looked back on my saved selfmade outfit formulas on canva I realized femininity is super important to me. So now I am thinking about if I should add femininity or if that goes under the "harmonious" category 😅 If I had to cut it down though, I think it would be natural, sophisticated and harmonious. But like, when I do that, I def feel like the three words don't represent my edgy and asymmetric style elements and like the femininity part is underexpressed. Not to mention that comfort is very important to idk if that goes under natural or harmonious or if that should be it's own word Like I know I don't have to take it superrrrr serious but still, I do 😂 so many says it is much easier to only have 3 words but for me it just makes it even more confusing 😖

    OMG we chose the exact same words! 🤪 Just kidding. 😂 Only one...”feminine”. At this time it’s comfortable, chic, feminine, playful and slightly retro. So how much time does it take to build up this carefully curated Pinterest page (incl updating/editing)? 😄

    • @EmilyElizabethMay
      @EmilyElizabethMay День тому

      Hahaha 😆😆🫶 love the playful and slightly retro, that’s a fun combination with the other words. Honestly, wjth the Pinterest page you could do it in an hour or take your time and do it over a week. You don’t need to have hundreds of photos or anything. You just want to step back from the board, look at it from afar, and think “yes, this is a good representation of what I’d like my style to look like”. And then you can always come back and re-visit it at anytime. But it’s just an exercise to get ideas flowing. Dont worry about it being perfect. Xoxo

I recently moved to a new city with higher fashion standards than where I lived my whole life and I've finally accepted my body size, so I'm starting to buy clothes that fit the body I have. Between the two, it's presented an opportunity to redefine and hone in on my style.
