Three Words to Describe Your Style

People often ask me to describe my style, which is a simple but challenging question. Allison Bornstein suggests summarizing your style using three words.

My three words are subtle, elevated, and contrasting. I have a subtle style that focuses on standing out through layering, mixing textures, and experimenting with silhouettes rather than wearing flamboyant or colorful pieces. I describe my style as elevated because I focus on high-quality basics and pay attention to details. I enjoy wearing contrasting pieces that traditionally may not match, such as mixing formal and casual items.

Regularly reviewing these three words can help me track how my style has evolved.
