In this weeks post I want to talk about how to dress for YOUR Style Expression this summer 😎; what to avoid, and also new styles to look for and try. (If you haven’t taken the Style Expression Quiz, now would be a good time to click over to the Quiz tab!) The 5 Expression Types are Alluring, Dramatic, Sporty, Classic, and Feminine; in todays post I will be giving examples of summer styles for each Expression type. And don’t worry, I’ll be sure to include photos!
——————————
Real quick, before I get started, I just want to explain
why Personal Style Expression is SO important. How
you dress says a lot about who you are. So, let’s
take me —Brooke— for example LOL! I am an
Alluring Dramatic Style Expression, Which means that
I like to be trendy/high fashion, and also add a little
sexy flair in there too! Now, if I were to dress in more
Feminine or Classic clothes it would not fit who I am and would
confuse others of who I am to the core. Does that make
sense? You want to dress according to your Style
Expression so that you can more easily tell the world
“THIS IS WHO I AM”

Now, onto the fun stuff!!!🙌🏼
Classic:
Okay Classic girls! What I want you looking for in stores is maybe just 2-3 items! The greatest thing about being a classic, is that all of your pieces are… well classic! You guys are so lucky this way in that you can easily repurpose something and it looks amazing on you! But you guys, don’t fall for the “trendy” pieces. Always be thinking “will I be able to wear this in 5 years?” Especially because ultimately thats what you guys want out of your wardrobe anyway😊 Some great pieces to give a try are flowy pants that will keep you cool, monochromatic outfits, or even a jumpsuit!

Alluring:
This summer for Alluring Expression types remember your goal of feeling sexy? Well, if your like me and don’t want to show too much skin it can be tricky to find pieces to wear. But keep in mind the outfit doesn’t have to be showing skin to have a sexy feel to it. Look for items that give you shape, curves, and show off what you got goin’ for ya! I love these 2 photos below for examples because there’s not a ton of skin (esp. on the 2nd one) but they just look sexy! THAT’S what you want to achieve! As far as new things to try, the 90’s are BACK! So try some high waisted denim with a belt and a crop top!

Sporty:
Hey Sporty girls! Now remember girls, Sporty doesn’t mean sweat pants, or yoga pants all the time. Keep dressing to impress 😉 This Summer dress it up a bit with a cute sporty dress! I’ve seen a ton of them, and they look awesome! The style right now is for a tighter fit and a high collar (think 90’s baby doll dress) and they are awesome! They will keep you cool and fashionable! The second pic I chose is a perfect Sporty girl outfit! Tennis shoes, cutoff denim, and a t-shirt, SO CUTE!

Dramatic:
All right Dramatic girls! Remember we love high fashion! So don’t be afraid to be Dramatic LOL!! This summer try out some cutoff overalls, some bright colored pants or even some TIE-DYE!! Tie-dye can be worn in lots of different ways: on jackets, tees, even pants. You could even pair it with those cutoff overalls! Things to avoid this summer are getting stuck in simple colors or boring things that don’t let your dramatic side show. Have fun with it!

Feminine:
This summer for all you Feminine girls out there keep it pretty and girlie! Some things I’m loving for you girls are floral jumpers, linen high waisted shorts, and high ponytails!! Stick with muted colors that scream girlie! Something to avoid this summer is jumping too far into other Expression styles— especially sporty. Make sure you put that girlie flair into everything you wear.
