How do I define my personal style ? Lol if you coming to me for the answer I don’t have it. But I found a great site that can help you do it yourself, easy ! Listen I believe we all have an idea of what our personal style is but how do we put it into words. Really define it ! IDK ! All I know is that I am not your typical fashionista. I wear what I want to wear. I let my creativity take over when it comes to my personal style. Keep reading…..
Anywho, I found myself on google trying to figure it out. There are so many ways to define your style and the most helpful one I came across was Style Bee. The story: I am a frequent listener to podcasts they help me generate my topic in today’s millennial time. So while I was listening to Gettin’ Grown by Jade and Keia, the topic of discussion was Personal Style. They provided Style Bee’s link in their description box of course I clicked it. “Define Your Style in 5 Easy Step”.So I am gonna let you take the wheel and visit StyleBee site on your own. Download her workbook and figure it all out. I put on my thinking cap and bam !! I defined my personal style.
Why do I recommend this? I recommend figuring out your personal style because I feel like we have too many clothes and put to many of our clothes in the graveyard. Graveyard , Clothes. What you talking about sis? You know those the clothes we never wear. We know is not for us but we still buy it. It been countless of time that I tried a style that I knew it was not for me. But I bought it anyway. Fail ! We know what we love. But what we like?… What we like might not be for us. I believe understanding and know your personal style will help save your coins. I want you to know exactly what you want out of outfits.
So after finishing the workbook…. I will suggest to you to do this with your friends…lol you could be lying to yourself sis or you just can’t come up with the right words. LOL … i guarantee its fun. Maybe turn this into a vision board party…. I got the wine !!

ON THE FASHION TIP:
What I learn from Style Bee’s workbook was how to define my style. Put it all into words that make sense. See the pictures that I have on this blog post? This is absolutely my style and what I love to wear. I am not your typical go by the book style blogger. I have a hard time keep up with the typical looks for the month anyway. I miss the whole mark LOL. So my look defines be as a cool confident unique kinda girl. I march to my own beat.
How did I come up with this outfit? I absolutely love graphic tees and anything that shows off my curves. I love graphic tees because say exactly what I want to say at that time. I live through my graphic tees literally. Oh yes I love bright colors too. Idk but yellow on black skin is just amazing . So I got this cute skirt from Eloquii. I was in Chicago for the Dream Big Curvy Conference. While I was there for the conference I visited the Eloquii Store on the Magnificent Mile. Check out FashionLayn goes to Eloquii about my experience at Eloquii. Anywho this skirt is so curvylicious and the fabric is amazing and really easy to clean.
I got the graphic tees because it literally scream “Girl Power”. I know that the world is going to be ran by women and I stand for it LOL. So because the shirt had a red rose in it I decided to pair it with a color that was close to it on the color wheel. RED, ORANGE, YELLOW .. get it !!! 🙂 Sidenote: SIS go out and get you a leather jacket for next winter season.. I see a lot of jackets are on sale !! The moto jacket I threw it in at the last minute. I think it completed the fit perfectly. Then the triple buckle action with the shoes ! I absolutely love these shoes. So comfy now. I must say you have to break these shoes in because they were tight at first.
