Style Survey
[ 15 February 2007, 12:41 ]
Feel free to post your answers below!
I skimp when buying:
Underwear (the stuff in the children’s department is far cuter than most of the women’s stuff) & sunglasses (I try them on in-store & then buy them on Ebay for 1/3 the price, typically). Other than that, usually I am pretty happy to pay for quality.
I splurge when buying:
Hmm, almost everything? If only I was a good vintage shopper. I don’t have the patience or inclination to scour vintage stores, unfortunately.
I always break this fashion rule:
Combining pink & red. Wearing stockings with open-toed shoes. Underwear or sleepwear as a major part of my outfit.
I never break this fashion rule:
Um… pshhh.
Must have item for Winter 2006:
Huge slouchy bag full of treasures, jaw-dropping hairstyle, pale foundation, futuristic minidresses & enormous shoes.
Favorite store:
Christian Louboutin on Fifth Avenue, NYC! & Patricia Field in Soho. Ha.
Style icon:
Diana Vreeland + Carrie Bradshaw!
Most cherished item:
Black Macbook tied with my Nikon D80 camera.
Favorite item of clothing:
I love my Kate Sylvester pink silk dress, & my black plastic Alexandre Herchcovitch for Melissa wedges, & all my headscarves!
Favorite stylish movie:
I am not a big movie watcher. Marie Antoinette was pretty great, though. I hear good things about Grey Gardens, too.
Guilty pleasure:
Guilt is for jerks!
Describe your personal style:
Autistic-five-year-old-diving-into-a-birthday-cake chic. Or um, your-opinion-on-my-outfit-means-very-little-to-me chic?!
I feel best wearing:
High shoes of any description. I wear flats maybe one day a week at most.
Personal style quirk:
I draw a beauty-spot on every day. I consider eye-masks to be appropriate “going out” wear. I only have one ear pierced (& really it is a tunnel which has mostly closed up).
Most overrated item:
Denim. I know, jeans are the most comfortable thing ever, but they never make me say “wow”.
Most underrated item:
Sunscreen. Keep your skin young-looking & non-leathery!
Most stylish city:
New York & Black Rock cities ;D
Never caught wearing:
Uggs or Crocs. Never say never, but those are just hideous.
When I was in high school I wore:
I was a teenage goth. New Rock boots, striped stockings, that kind of thing. Eep.
Shine your own shoes?
Yes! But most of my shoes aren’t the kind you shine.
Favorite fashion magazine:
Lula, maybe, though it could be much better. I love to buy magazines but I don’t have any favourites really, most of the time I am very disappointed by them.
Favorite other magazine:
iCiNG ;D
Cologne, skincare, perfume:
Um, skincare & perfume!
I always dress my best for:
Everyday. I refuse to dress down!
