I Heart Your Style

by: Kristie Scott

What is your style? Is it definable or indefinable? Or perhaps a carfeul mix of both?

Style-identity-crisis can be a tough struggle to overcome, but Amanda Brooks can certainly help out along the adventure.
"Finding your personal style is really about discovering yourself", Amanda says in her fashion account, I Love Your Style: How to Define and Refine Your Personal Style.




In this book, Amanda categorizes some definable and indefinable styles, using the icons and inspirations that fostered her own evolution of style.

I love how strongly she encourages us to stay true to ourselves by having confidence in who we are, and adapting the trends that suit us to our own interests, history, lifestyle, ambitions, etc.

"Peronal style is about engaging in a constant creative process--one that evolves as you do. There are no rules to this, except the ones you make for yourself--and even those are made to be broken."


Here are the definable styles Amanda categorizes:

classic; Victoria Beckham

bohemian; the Olsen twins

minimal; Sofia Coppola

...And the indefinables:
high fashion; Chloe Sevigny

street; Agyness Deyn

eclectic; Kate Moss
