For the first 3 to 4 years when I started buying my own clothes, i always bought clothes a couple of sizes to big because I believed I would eventually grow into it. Well, that never happened so when I got into the professional world, I was the clueless girl wearing ill fitted clothing completely unaware. I needed a makeover!!!
Now this is the nerdy part, I learnt to dress myself by reading lots and lots of books in the style section of the public library. Yep! After school uniforms in high school to jeans and a t shirt or sweater in college...it was a challenge. It took me years to find my comfort zone and that is why I feel that even now, my style is so structured and seasonal because I follow the books. I love fashion but it is not instinctual for me at all.
when I buy clothes, I prefer them to be plain and untraceable. My white top could be from the boys section at Target or Nordstrom (LOL) no one can tell but me.
I still follow themes everyday when i dress up. I pick one that suits the occasion or day and just go with it. So everyday, I am either in pants trying to be mature and sophisticated like blossom or in a dress or skirt doing girly like bubbles or jeans and no fuss tomboy like buttercup.
