Tiffany
Story behind your personal style:
Today's look is inspired by the desire to feel cool, light, and refreshing during this hot and humid day. Currently, Tiffany is enjoying versatility in her wardrobe, especially her casual wear. She has been working on building a more casual collection for a while because her closet entailed more dressy pieces. Tiffany is also enjoying the different sandals, sneakers, heels, and various finds from brands that contribute to the versatility of her wardrobe right now.
Tiffany describes her style in one word: unique. For her, this means she likes to experiment with different color schemes and ultimately has an eye for pieces that are different from what everyone else is wearing. Her unique style is a reflection of her personality and individuality. Right now, she is drawn to neutral colors and pink, which is her favorite color. As someone who works from home, she is able to curate outfits at her own pace.
Tiffany does not shy away from the fact that she can make room for improvements in her wardrobe by adding more summer clothing, as she tends to have more fall and winter outfits because those are her favorite seasons.
One of Tiffany's current style inspirations is Tracy Ellis Ross. She greatly admires Ross' unique and bold fashion choices, which often push the boundaries of traditional style.
tips for discovering personal stylye?
Tiffany suggests taking the time to discover what fits your personality and what you like when you're finding your personal style. Build your wardrobe piece by piece to truly reflect your unique taste. For example, she prefers to add to her wardrobe gradually rather than buying in bulk at once, as she finds that not everything catches her eye immediately. When she does find something she loves, she grabs it and then looks for other pieces that will complement it. Online shopping has become more prevalent since the pandemic, making it more convenient to find eye-catching pieces, but she does miss the experience of trying on clothes.
ACcessorize
One of Tiffany's favorite aspects of her wardrobe is her collection of timeless accessories. She sees these pieces as investments, as they can be paired with various outfits and never go out of style.
Gate-Keeper or Not?
Tiffany does not gate-keep when it comes to clothing. 'Gate-keeping' in fashion refers to the act of excluding others from a particular style or trend. Tiffany believes that, in most cases, clothing is not made for just one person, and everyone should feel free to express themselves through their style choices.
