    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?

    - Whatever fits and looks good. I am only picky about brands with handbags.

    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?

    - None really.

    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)

    - Jeans, casual flats, cotton top, jewelry

    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)

    - Modern fit for pants, v neck sweaters and blouses (not too low cut though), and for dresses, usually something that covers my shoulders.

    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?

    - I wish I could wear big high heels without getting stabby with pain after a few minutes.

    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?

    - Loud prints and those tops that have a belt just below the bustline look terrible on me. The former makes me look silly and childish and the latter makes my boobs look 10x bigger and my belly look pregnant

    7.What are your favorite colors?

    - Black, red, royal blue

    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)

    - None. I prefer solids

    9.What are your favorite fabrics?

    - Good quality cotton and denim.

    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?

    - Mostly pants, but I do like skirts from time to time.

    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?

    - Rarely. I prefer skirts with a separate top. Most of the dresses I own are wrap style.

    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?

    - Comfortable but good quality casual and dress flats. I have a bazillion.

    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?

    - Not really, and not really. I do love that they make me look taller and leaner though.

    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)

    - Earrings, watch, rings.

    15.Which pieces of jewelry do you wear most often? (Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, etc.)

    - Earrings.

    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?

    - I like to change things up a bit and get new things periodically. I love to shop.

    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?

    - I love Liz Taylor's look from the 1950's and 1960's. She was amazing!

    Only because there's still 30 minutes in the work day....

    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?
    I honestly don't have one!

    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?
    Anything with the brand plastered in front of it. (Hollister, Abercrombie, etc.) I think it's the tackiest *kitten* ever.

    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)
    Of course depending on the season, but I typically opt for a casual dress, tights, and flat shoes.

    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)
    Pencil skirts, fitted/wiggle dresses, cigarette pants, 3/4 length blouses and shirts, ballerina flats, or universal black pumps.

    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?
    Skinny jeans with pumps. Still too hip-y to pull that off.

    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?
    Any style of really baggy top (or empire waistline) that hides my waistline, it ends up looking like I'm actually wearing a bag, and weight like 40 pounds more. I have an hourglass figure, so I avoid all clothes that *don't* accentuate my waistline.

    7.What are your favorite colors?
    Pink, red, black, cream, navy blue.

    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)
    Polka dots and florals :)

    9.What are your favorite fabrics?
    Cotton, and lace. I love lace :)

    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?
    Skirt girl, through and through.

    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?
    Yes, many! I like the cut of dresses from the 1950's and 60's, either a fit-and-flare approach, or a tighter figure-hugging sheath dress (a la Joan Holloway from Mad Men).

    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?
    Riding boots, ballerina flats, fun high heel pumps, and yes.

    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?
    Yes, and yes!

    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)
    Pearls, scarves and rings mostly. I usually forget to accessorize beyond that.

    15.Which pieces of jewelry do you wear most often? (Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, etc.)
    Pearl earrings and necklaces.

    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?
    When something's on sale... I do enjoy shopping, when I have the money to and I can find things and a mega-discount.

    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?
    If you haven't gathered by now, I love fashion all through the 1940's through the 1960's. <3

    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?


    <> I don't really care much about brands. It's more the individual garment. I wind up buying lots of Merona, Style & Co, Lauren, etc. But that's generally because of budget, convenience, and their availability of my current sizes (16, XL, 1X). I have some clothes from Loft and J. Jill I really love, too, and happened upon some Gloria Vanderbilt jeans I've sought out because I love the cut...but much of my wardrobe is secondhand so I don't always have a huge selection of brands.


    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?


    <> I am not crazy about Lane Bryant clothing. Even when I was larger and didn't have as much choice, I found their stuff was poor quality for the price and often cut wrong for my body type. For example, a 14/16 top might be swimming on me and then I'd need a 26/28 in a cardigan at the same time. I will try almost any brand but usually steer clear of stuff that I feel is way too young (Aeropostale) or old (Christopher & Banks) for me. There are exceptions, of course.


    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)


    <> a 3/4 sleeve top, bright jeans, ankle boots and maybe a coordinating scarf. That's my uniform as of late.


    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)


    <> I like a mix of dressy/casual and lots of jackets, leggings, dresses and boots. I tend to be fairly trendy for my age and location (37 & living in a medium sized Missouri city).


    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?


    <> I'm a believer that anyone CAN wear anything they want to. I wish I felt more confident in certain things, but I have come a long way from the past. Just in the past couple of months I've become more confident about "skinny jeans" especially with boots, and last summer I learned to look past the tattoo & scar on my leg and embrace knee length skirts and shorts.


    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?


    <> Anything with a belt tends to highlight my belly fat in a horrible way, and I am too much of an hourglass figure to belt dresses up higher. I'm tallish at 5'8" too. It just does not work on me at all.


    7.What are your favorite colors?

    <> black/white, olive, deep blues like cobalt & navy, red, orange, mint & teal


    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)


    <> I love stripes and funky patterns like birds and splashy shapes (smaller to medium prints). I always feel clownish in dots, but if they're more like ovals or a vintage "atomic" shape then it's all right.


    9.What are your favorite fabrics?


    <> cotton, ponte...whatever feels nice and is easy to care for!


    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?


    <> definitely both


    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?


    <> I wear dresses. Usually I prefer dresses with some sort of sleeve (short, 3/4, or long) so I don't have to layer. When I was much larger I always layered but now I would prefer not to when possible. I will wear most styles of dresses, anything from just above the knee to ankle length.


    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?


    <> I love comfortable yet cute shoes. To me that's boots, ankle boots, feminine loafers, ballet flats, etc. I also like Toms and Keen hiking sandals, and of course running shoes for exercise purposes. I own all of those types of footwear.


    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?


    <> I do not feel comfortable walking in heels. I "can" wear them but as a general rule I don't own/wear any shoe that I can't walk in at brisk pace for an hour (straight). The only "heels" in my closet are a pair of ankle boots so I guess no, I am not a heels wearer!


    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)


    <> I like to wear scarves and when my very short hair has grown out a bit, I wear cute headbands from time to time until I get another haircut. Leggings and tights are good. I accessorize with bags and in the winter, hats or knitted headbands & gloves.


    15.Which pieces of jewelry do you wear most often? (Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, etc.)


    <> I'm pretty simple. I usually just wear my wedding ring (cushion-cut green amethyst in a very modern silver band), various small or stud earrings (though sometimes dangly ones), and maybe a bracelet or necklace. I only wear a bracelet or necklace 1-2 days a week on average but I wear earrings daily.


    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?


    <> I like shopping and I do it almost every week, although about 80% of it is secondhand/thrift shopping. I am motivated by looking at fashion blogs, change of the seasons, and of course when I notice my clothes getting loose thanks to MFP ;-)


    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?


    <> not really. I like (and incorporate) various elements of almost every era (especially 20s, 40s, 80s) but there is not one specific era that resonates with me most.

    What are your favorite handbag brands? I used to be a huge Coach and Fossil fanatic but in recent years I'm not quite as particular. I do love LeSportsac 3 zip cosmetic bags, I use them as wallets.

    Oh and I can't believe I did not mention denim as a favorite fabric. Definitely.

    9.What are your favorite fabrics?
    Cotton, and lace. I love lace :)


    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?
    If you haven't gathered by now, I love fashion all through the 1940's through the 1960's. <3

    Your retro style sounds so fantastic!! Love it.

    I never considered myself a lace person, but I found a cute long sleeve black top with all lace sleeves and I like it a lot. Something about the lace sleeves makes me feel like a bada$$ for some silly reason!! It reminds me of something I would have begged my mom to buy me as a kid in the 80s but she wouldn't have allowed.

    BTW I totally posted that in my last hour at work after finding it on a blog. I know it's super long but I'm thrilled a couple of you responded.

    1. anything made tough (i am hard on my clothes). eddie bauer, st johns bay, jones new york
    2. none. not that into brands, honestly.
    3. don't have one. it varies.
    4. anything that will flatter my boobless stick figure, which means my choices are limited and pretty much already made for me. tailored or figure-hugging, not too low-cut on top works. loose and flowy does not.
    5. uh... i would have to have a different body for other styles to look good on me. and i don't want a different body. so i'll stick with what i look good in.
    6. see #4
    7. to wear: black, gray, red, blue, or anything neutral, and black. did i say black? also psychotically bright accent colors (against black) and tie-dye.
    8. i'm too skinny for patterns to look good me, i think. i avoid them. anything geometric is fine. i don't consider tie-dye a pattern.
    9. polyester, rayon, and silk. anything that i can machine wash and beat the hell out of.
    10. both
    11. yes, whenever i can and feel like it. A-lines, almost exclusively, for me.
    12. either high heels or comfy sneakers. for comfort and durability i prefer men's shoes (i'm 8-8.5 in mens, 10 in womens)
    13. the higher the better. i'm a high-flying ace in heels.
    14. tights, kneesocks, scarves
    15. earrings, necklaces. i wear much less jewelry these days than i have in the past.
    16. having money. not when i'm poor.
    17. '20s, '30s, '40s. some '50s; there's where i start to lose interest.

    * all of the above is subject to the skateboarding aegis: when the roads are dry, longboarding is my #1 priority which means rough, tough, dirty clothes (with holes, usually) and skate shoes. and that's when i feel i look my best. :tongue:

    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?
    Not fussed, whatever fits.
    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?
    Super expensive brands with massive logos all over it. Don't see the point in it, you're just paying for the name.
    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)
    Not sure what go-to means. My normal attire is t-shirt and jeans. If I'm going out it's a skirt and nice top and flat shoes.
    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)
    Bootcut jeans, which are tough to find these days with this skinny jean hype.
    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?
    Any dress, really.
    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?
    Dresses make me look weird. I've a B belly, and the top part of the B sticks out, so when I wear a dress, it makes me look preggers.
    7.What are your favorite colors?
    Fave colours to wear are blue or black.
    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)
    Anything that's not stripy.
    9.What are your favorite fabrics?
    Not fussed.
    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?
    Normally wear trousers, if going out I wear skirts. Not really a 'girly girl'.
    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?
    No.
    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?
    Dr Martens. No :( they don't fit me.
    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?
    No and No.
    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)
    Colourful scarves
    15.Which pieces of jewelry do you wear most often? (Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, etc.)
    Earrings and necklaces
    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?
    I shop if I have to. I go very early in the morning, get my stuff, then get the hell out.
    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?
    I like the Victorian era with all the corsetry. And the colours of the 60's, the flares, tie dye. The 90's were good fun too.

    1. Brand's less important than fit, quality, and price.
    2. I don't tend to wear things I either can't afford, or things with tons of loud logos all over.
    3. Jeans, cute blouse, cardigan, long necklace, flats.
    4. My style is basically nerdy-hot librarian.
    5. Pinup, vintage. There's lots of things I wish i could wear, but can never find for a variety of reasons.
    6. High waisted anything (I have a short waist) or tight, strappy things don't suit me.
    7. Black, burgundy, plum, forest green, brown
    8. Probably polka dots.
    9. Um, ones that drape well?
    10. I don't own any skirts so... pants. But not necessarily out of choice.
    11. I don't own any dresses that fit either. I'm difficult to fit.
    12. Flats.
    13. No, the air gets thin up here and it's just not fair to the rest of men to always be staring at my amazing rack.
    14. A long necklace, or a scarf.
    15. Earrings irritate me and I don't like rings because I type all day. So, probably necklaces.
    16. I loathe shopping and try to avoid it.
    17. Nudist colonies; togas.

    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?

    I don't have a favorite brand, I wear whatever fits good.


    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?

    Tom Hardy. I just..everything they have is awful.
    Lululemon. Overpriced, too many people wearing it outside of gyms.


    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)

    Everyday:Jeans and a tshirt or blouse. Sometimes heels.
    Go out: Dress and heels.


    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)

    Such a broad question. My jeans are either skinny or really baggy/loose. I wear lots of off shoulder sweaters. I wear ankle length, fitted dress pants in strong colors. I have all kinds of shoes. Most of my dresses are medium length or long, but tight. I go for showing back rather than leg or cleavage.


    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?

    I pretty much wear whatever i want. I promised myself i'll rock some booty shorts next summer just because i have always covered up my legs, and i'm finally starting to like them, not necessarily because i love that style. More of a psychological win for me.


    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?

    I honestly don't think i look horrendous in anything. Sure, some things fit better than others. I'd say sweatshirts or anything too big on top, not fitted in the waist makes me look boxy.


    7.What are your favorite colors?

    On clothes? Red, black, dark blue. Bright colors and pastels in the summer. So all colors, i guess!


    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)

    I'm not big on patterns.

    9.What are your favorite fabrics?

    Again, don't really have one. Different fabrics work on different items.


    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?

    Both.

    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?

    Yes. I find tight but covered up the sexiest. But i have all kinds of dresses.


    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?

    I like shoes that stand out. I think usually the shoes make or break an outfit. And again, i have all kinds. Except boring brown old lady shoes.


    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?

    Yes. Yes.


    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)

    I wear a watch every day. Scarves a lot.


    15.Which pieces of jewelry do you wear most often? (Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, etc.)

    Earrings

    .
    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?

    I am a bargain hunter. I always find great deals on stuff. I enjoy it for no longer than 2-3 hours at a time.


    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?

    Not really.

    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?

    I like places that sell clothing that is small and fits me. I don't like to shop. So, my choices may be randomly stumbled upon. I like the jeans at Banana Republic (petite, boot cut, stretch, dark blue, good fit for a curvy booty, size 00). I have some shirts from bluenotes, they run small it seems. I like H&M because I can get casual or professional clothes and they are not expensive. I get shoes from payless because they sell size 5.5. I have some yoga pants from Roots. I liked their crop sweatpants, but did not like the large company emblem being on them. And pretty much just whenever I find something I like that fits and is affordable. Brand is not important. I do aim towards stores that run small, so I can get a good fit.

    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?

    Just places in which the smallest size is too big or too long. I like a good fit. I don't like how shirts are often made to be very long.

    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)

    Jeans with a black t-shirt or a colorful knit top that fits well (is small enough on my waist).

    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)

    Umm, basic, casual, fitted, practical. I wear a lot of black. I like stripes. I wear hiking sneakers, boots, or wedge heels. I like blouses.

    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?

    I don't know.

    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?

    Loose clothing hides my figure. Clothing that is not fitted in the waist does not look so great on me. Long shirts don't look good on me because I'm short.

    7.What are your favorite colors?

    Black, purple, blue. Or rainbow.

    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)

    Stripes, or a top that has one band of patterning near the top. There are some small checkered type patterns that I like.

    9.What are your favorite fabrics?

    Cotton, knit. I also like some synthetics. Things that can handle it if I sweat, but won't make me hot because I'm active a lot.

    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?

    Pants or a skirt with pants that are like tights underneath. I like to be active.

    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?

    Yes, short sleeve, not past the knee usually. Black or with a pattern. Fitted at the waist or with a tie belt.

    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?

    Hiking sneakers, wedge heels, warm cozy boots that keep my feet warm, are waterproof around the feet and have cute fuzzy fake fur at the top, sandals for summer that feel secure on my feet, but airy.

    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?

    I usually just wear wedge heels.

    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)

    I have a dainty antique watch that is silver. Headbands.

    15.Which pieces of jewelry do you wear most often? (Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, etc.)

    I have a dainty antique watch that is silver and looks like a bracelet. Sometimes I wear my wedding ring, my engagement ring is beautiful, but it is too big for me (it was made for my husband's grandmother and they just can't make it small enough to fit me). Sometimes I wear a necklace. Haven't been wearing earrings as much these days.

    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?

    When my clothes get holes in them or if I need something specific for a performance or occasion or event. I don't enjoy shopping.

    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?

    It appears I like the 60's maybe.

    1.What clothing brands do you love to wear? Why?

    I don`t really pick clothes for brands, I usually go with someone I like and is of a decent quality and fits well. But the brands I seem to gravitate towards are Le Chateau (:D) and some fifties vintage type stuff.


    2.What clothing brands do you hate? Why?

    None in particular; I`m not partial or impartial to any clothing brands. I'm tired of hearing about Lululemon though.

    3.What’s your go-to outfit? (A tee shirt and jeans? A dress and heels? A sweater and slacks?)

    Usually I'm in a blouse and jeans, but in the summer I gravitate towards flowy skirts and shorts with a nice fitted top.

    4.What styles do you love to wear? (Think in terms of garments: styles of blouse, sweater, skirt, dress, pant, shoe, etc.)

    Dressy-casual. Nice dress pants and a blouse, skirt and jean jacket, jeans with a t-shirt and heels, a nice simple dress with flats.

    5.What styles do you wish you could wear?

    Anything a little more summery or flowy, but it's cold and snow-covered where I live about 75% of the year. We get maybe two-three months of warm weather (20-30C/68-86 F)


    6.What styles do you think look horrendous on you? In what ways do they fight your figure?

    Long dress and anything that really aids in making me appear shorter than I already am. Anything too loose will also add too many pounds, and I have a naturally curvy (NOT FAT! There's a difference!!!) figure, so it's very unflattering.

    7.What are your favorite colors?

    Red, black, dark green, and dark blue

    8.What are your favorite patterns? (If any.)

    None

    9.What are your favorite fabrics?

    Cotton, denim, silk, leather

    10.Are you a skirt girl, pants girl, or both?

    Pants in the winter, skirts in the summer.

    11.Do you wear dresses? If so, what style?

    Yes, I do. I try to keep it somewhat casual at work, so something simply cut, not frills or special details, and ones that hug curves. I don't like really loose dresses with no cut or shape.


    12.What styles of shoes you like? Do you own shoes in those styles?

    Thigh-high boots, classic stilettos, flats, and Romanesque sandals. I have the stilettos and sandals (I just wish they laced up to the knees), but the boots are always over 200 dollars when I find them.


    13.Can you wear heels? Do you enjoy wearing heels?

    LOVE LOVE heels! Been wearing them since I was 13. Because, well, I'm short...

    14.What accessories do you wear most often? (Scarves, belts, watches, hosiery, etc.)

    Scarves, cameo necklaces, my ring, and hosiery when I am not in pants or shorts.
    16.What motivates you to shop? Do you enjoy shopping?

    I friggin hate shopping. I've hated it since I was little. I was overweight as a kid and I was really short, so that didn't help either. Body image problems = bad day at the mall.

    17.Is there an era of fashion that you absolutely adore?

    the 1920s (FLAPPERS! :D), '40s, '50s. Almost anything Gothic-Victorian (Mid to late 19th century ish) because corsets and the entire gothic/victorian culture is beautiful to me! I am slightly partial to medieval dress as well!
