Looking around my college's campus, a thought occurred to me that I've probably had before, but never really gave much consideration to-- There are multiple ways people like to dress, and they tend to attract the attention of different kinds of people.
I know, "Wow, Syra, where'd you come to that crazy conclusion?", yeah, but it never really came across to me as a thing until recently.
So, here's the question: what single word would you use to describe the manner in which you dress? Maybe you want to impress the other gender with a "fashionable", "cool", or even "sexy" style. Or you might find that shallow and prefer to dress with a "conservative" or "unspectacular" style, that's fine. Even if you just don't care, that's a style, something like "unconcerned" or "oblivious".
My Answer: I think I'd probably use the word "Friendly". Most of the time I have a long-sleeve, a sweater vest, a beanie, and a scarf (during winter weather, anyway) that I'd like to think gives off a welcoming vibe. I mean, looking at myself in the mirror with those clothes, I think they only look good on me while I'm smiling 8P
Generic.
I like simple clothes, with the occasional specialty, like that Zorua shirt.
1 – GalliumGrantAthletically
I tend to wear loose clothing that is more fitting to wear in Summer. I normally wear a T shirt with basketball shorts. (even though I'm not one bit athletic
) I even wear the same style in late Fall. People think I'm crazy because of how cold it is outside yet I'm still wearing a T-shirt with shorts. I generally don't wear jeans because I don't think they're that comfortable, personally, but I'll wear them if I have to. It is rare to see me in long pants, unless it's a formal occasion. Haha
1 – GalliumGrant"Whatever"
I just wear one of the six shirts I have, one of the four pairs of trousers that I have, one of the two jackets that I have, underwear, socks, and my one pair of shoes. I'm not overly fussed what I look like as long as it's reasonable.
1 – NismoZPlain.
Nearly all of my shirts have no text on it and my jeans are as plain as you can get them. I've never really been a fan of clothing with text on it for some reason.
1 – GalliumGrantCasual and Cool.
I'm like a cartoon character in a way, since I have a basic daily outfit. Depending on the weather of course. For now, it would be an undershirt, regular shirt, jacket, and jeans. Simple and easy. I'm not trying to impress anyone. :I
1 – GalliumGrantHm... "Comfortable", I guess. It's usually just jeans (or, in the summer, jean shorts) and a t-shirt. I guess "Uncaring" would work, too, since I usually don't care what it looks like as long as it fits comfortably.
1 – GalliumGrantI have 2 styles that I occasionally rotate between, "Formal" and "Conservatively Confident". Yeah.
For my "Formal" style no matter what day of the year, whether it's 32°C or -50°C I'm always wearing black, gray or navy blue skinny jeans. (The black ones are the most common that you'll see me wearing.) And then I tend to wear button-up shirts with the sleeves rolled up just above my elbow.
My "Conservatively Confident" style consists of t-shirt with videogame themes on them. Anything I wear never shows even the slightest bit of my collarbones, ever. I dress extremely conservatively.
Okay, now because I feel that my description was fairly lacking, I'll post 2 examples of me wearing each style. Later. Not now. I'm lazy.
1 – GalliumGrantThat's a tough question. Two words come to mind: first, casual; second, comfortable. However, most of my everyday clothing is also what I wear to more formal events, though usually with dress pants instead of jeans. Sooo, is what I wear more "dressy" or do I just not dress up enough for formal events? My second word is true for me personally, though I'm sure many wouldn't be very comfortable in what I wear.
To sum it all up, I'm not sure. I guess comfortable would be the best descriptive word for my style, but it still doesn't fit. Maybe inspiration will strike me later, when I least expect. Or I'll look up a list of adjectives for help.
