Personal Style

In the fashion world, "style" is usually shorthand for "personal style," the way an individual expresses themselves through aesthetic choices such as their clothing, accessories, hairstyle and the way they put an outfit together. By being intentional about your personal style, you can create a wardrobe that is not only gender affirming but that affirms who you are as a person.

Why is Personal Style Important?

A personal style should speak about who you are, what's important to you, and gives you power and autonomy to present yourself to others on your own terms. It's also sustainable! If you have a good grasp on your personal style, you're less likely to buy clothes that don't fit with your style and can reduce the amount of clothing waste created.

What is the effect do you want your clothes to have?

Meaning, what silhouette do you enjoy on yourself and what do you feel confident in? Some people may want to achieve an effect that emphasizes curves while others may want to create a boxy effect. Don’t focus on “dressing for your body shape" or what is "flattering" because people want to achieve different effects and it’s all possible regardless of your body.
