Default Your style

What is your dress style? Is it affected by people's opinion?Does your style reflect your personality and moods? Do people think so?

Mine is mostly simple elegance. The only thing I am extravagant about are ear-rings and sunglasses. The other times, I go for unique & artistic eye-catchers.
Peoples opinion dont matter too much. My cousins sometimes laugh at my outfits and colour combinations when they arent conventional but I brave it. However, if it is my first time going to a place or event, I will ask for people's opinions.
Most of the time, guys think I am unapproachable because of the way I dress but girls stop me to give me compliments and ask where I shop. It is the weirdest thing.

All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.

If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is tempermental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.

"The art of using troops is this:
......When ten to the enemy's one, surround him;
......When five times his strength, attack him;
......If double his strength, divide him;
......If equally matched you may engage him;
......If weaker numerically, be capable of withdrawing;
......And if in all respects unequal, be capable of eluding him,
..........for a small force is but booty for one more powerful."

Oh yeah, when I am in a bad mood, stressed or tired, I always wear a baseball hat. People leave me alone when I wear my hat.

-------Soulnote to soulself, when vinyl has a hat on, she's not inviting...

My dressing most often reflects my personality, casual, athletic, a little corporate from time to time...simply fun.

I tend to dress preppy, the khakis, brown or black boot and matching tops...this is usually during the weekdays. On weekends, I tend to freestyle more hip-hop and athletic than anything else...fubu shorts,, hilfigers, t-shirts.... wife beaters/singlets

Side note: I don't read threads in here but your topics caught my attention...you write excellent threads

I used to do that. Now when I am in school and under major stress and needing major comfort, I wear what I like to call my "nice rags" very neatly. Also, that way people know I am real and I dress when the occassion, weather and my mood call for it.
However, out of school, I follow your policy
