In the realm of fashion and personal style, there are several main types that people often relate to:

Classic: Timeless and traditional styles, favoring simple and elegant pieces.
Casual: Comfortable and relaxed styles, focusing on practicality and ease of wear.
Chic: Stylish and sophisticated, with sleek lines and a modern edge.
Bohemian: Free-spirited and eclectic, embracing natural fabrics, patterns, and a relaxed fit.
Street: Influenced by urban culture, characterized by edgy and casual styles inspired by streetwear.
Romantic: Soft and feminine styles, featuring delicate fabrics, floral patterns, and vintage-inspired pieces.
Glamorous: Bold and luxurious styles, with statement pieces, metallics, and attention-grabbing details.


Which style resonates most with you, or do you blend elements from multiple styles to express your personal fashion statement?
 
Casual. I don't really follow fashion but I have designed fashion.
 
I'll answer this one as well.
When it comes to personal style, I’ve always found the classic look to be one of the best, though I rarely wear it.
I’ve started to embrace it a bit more now, but in the past, I mostly wore casual outfits, especially since most of my activities involved BBQs at home, parks, or just running everyday errands.

I tended to be more casual, especially when those around me dressed simply or poorly. Still, even my casual style had a lot of florals. I love colours!
Recently, I’ve started to wear more solid colours.

There was also a time when I wore a lot of sports clothing, even outside. I got a lot of free ones (there’s a big story behind that, but no need to get into it) that lasted a long time, which was helpful during tough times.

Overall, I don’t often wear what I really love. I mean, I do, but I keep it simple because there aren’t many opportunities to dress up.

If I were to go with what I truly like, I’d say my style would lean towards romantic, with a touch of classic and just a hint of glamour
 
I like to mix and match, but mostly I'm somewhere between Alternative, Punk, Skater and Dime-A-Dozen.

I prioritize comfort over looks.

If Casual means yoga pants and t-shirts, that's me I guess? LOL

When I had a job, I dressed up more and when I go to church I wear nicer clothes, but when I'm at home, I'm cooking/cleaning/working out, so it makes sense to dress for those activities.
 

I wear an apron, but not a dress!

I used to cook wearing my nice clothes, but the splatter of an oil/grease would ruin those things. Sometimes I could put baby powder on the spots and get rid of them. It's a bit of effort, but worth saving the clothing.
 
I totally get not wearing anything nice when cooking , and yeah, comfy clothes around the house are the way to go these days. It just feels better.

I used to cook in whatever I wore out, nothing fancy but nice casual clothes.
These days, the first thing I do when I get home is change.
I don’t bother with an apron, even though I probably should. I usually forget, but splatters while cooking don’t really bother me. It’s eating that’s the real issue. Anything with a lot of sauce, like spaghetti, always ends up on my top. Honestly, I could use a bib at this point. :LOL: Okay, maybe not that bad, but somehow there’s always at least one or two splatters.
Eating on the couch while watching TV definitely doesn’t help… I really need to break that habit

Even if I've gotta run to WalMart no way can I wear my slouchy "house costume"! :LOL:

Comfort is KEY!! :D
 
For the most part I am casual.. so its usually just graphic tees, jeans and sneakers for me.. but I can switch it up for special occasions and if I feel like leaning into more stylish looks..
 
Probably casually classic. I wear a lot of basic pieces that can be worn 75% of the year. I want my wardrobe to really work for me so I can stretch it out with mostly basics and a few fun pieces. Lots of black and darker/neutral colors, too.
