What is your real style?

I have noticed in a lot of before and after photos that people change their clothing style, hair, and just overall fashion sense when they loose weight. I fee like ( especially in my case) We may have an idea of what we like or love but when you are bigger pulling it off or daring to even put it on is a challenge.

If you were at your goal weight right now what is the first thing you would buy and why? Would you even change your style or do you like what you are wearing now just hoping for a smaller size? What is your favorite piece of clothing that you own right now, no matter what your weight?

I LOVE crazy cloths. As long as it is still a bit sophisticated and not too slutty ...think Samantha( without the sleeping around
) from sex in the City but younger. The first thing I would buy is a handful of new dresses from Modcloth.com and high heels. MY favorite piece of clothing I own right now is this dark purple tank top that has ruffles at the collar. It fits well and ...I just love ruffles haha

    This is MEEEEE completely. If I had the money I'd buy Modcloth out completely. There's a couple other places I love as well.

    I just want a smaller size.
    I wear my skinny jeans, even though I'm a 11 or 9 in them. When I loose the weight I'll probably STILL wear baggy band shirts because it's a style, not a self concious thing : D.

    I like my current style, which is mostly steampunkish and Victorian style goth (did the ripped up fishnet etc phase in high school but I've outgrown that to a degree ... pushing 30 here, bondange pants might look a bit ridiculous), or if I'm at work what you see in my profile picture suits me. Professional with a splash of colour here or there but not too much. There are definitely some looks from that sort of fashion that I'm not comfortable in at this weight, but I can still find plenty I like.

    Wow! Good post! I'd change a few things. First off, I'm trying to grow my hair out. Secondly, I'd be more daring at my weight goal. Daring as in digging deep into some crazy fashion... not slutty. I'd go shopping for some cute leather boots (think riding boots not hooker boots lol) cuz most dont fit my legs. I'm not large or overweight but for some reason I was blessed (or cursed) with big calves. Hoping to lose some inches in there so I can actually wear some of the boots I love. Also find a great pair of skinny jeans that fit perfect. :)

    Well before I became a bloated cow, I liked the sceneboy/emo look. I'm hoping I can return to those glory days.

    <----The new picture shows one of the things I LOVE, it's a pencil skirt dress. It's something I used to love thin and missed when I gained weight so I'm THRILLED to be thin enough now to pull it off.

    Also my old corsets are too big now so I'm looking forward to some new ones!

    I would start shopping online at ASOS.com and at stores like Zara. I love European fashion! My style is definitely girly and classic, but a bit edgy at the same time. Once I get down to my goal weight of 135, I will definitely reward myself with a wardrobe makeover. More motivation to change my life! (:

    Once I reach my goal I'll be wearing spandex and a cape. Oh and a codpiece.

    I would like to treat myself to some of these:

    and I also think that my style would end up looking more "girly" dresses, skirts & cute heels. Right now I wear more of just jeans, t shirts, flip-flops.

    Rockabilly and grunge with cowboy cut button down and converse. Or a well fit three-piece suit, fob and a bowler or fedora. Or just similar to Tennant's Doctor. Not that this would be a change for me, I just assume I would look better in all of it.
    Actually, I think I will start dressing like the 4th Doctor! Now there is a fashion change!

    the only thing i've been *changing* with my weight loss is i used to be layers layers layers... tons of color as always and everything was solid colors, now i'm usually only wearing 1 or 2 shirts as opposed to 3 or 4 and i'm wearing prints and patterns. :) or and i LOVE that i can wear my mini skirt again! its a 5 in juniors!

    I'm slowly transitioning into the rockabilly/pin-up girl look. I've added a few pieces into my wardrobe already but I can't wait to add a few more pencil skirts and corset tops. :wink:
