This Style Quiz Will Help You Find Your Personal Style
Why Take This Style Quiz?
Aside from taking this fun 5-minute style quiz to know what your personal style is, you may be asking, “Why should I find my style?” Personal Style can help you make better shopping decisions. You’ll be able to quickly decide whether a new piece should make its way into your wardrobe. If it fits with the qualities of your personal style then there’s a higher likelihood you’ll wear it. But if the item is a different style type then chances are it may sit in your closet unworn. This not only saves you time, money, and frustration but it also helps you curate a closet that you love.
What Is Personal Style?
According to The New York Times, “It takes decades for most of us to find our personal style — and said style also often changes as we change. What may have screamed “ME” to us at 18 seems embarrassing at 25, and completely unimaginable at 35.” Style is fluid and evolves as you go through different seasons of your life.
Personal Style is reflective of who you are and what you value. It answers the question, “How do I want to show up in the world, and how do I want to be perceived?” Whether you are someone who loves putting together looks and getting “dressed for the day”, or if you think getting dressed is a daily chore like brushing your teeth, both expressions of getting dressed say a lot about you.
It’s also important to note that most of us don’t have just one Personal Style type. Our Personal Style can be made up of several of these types. My Personal Style is edgy, romantic, classic, and sometimes minimal. All of the pieces in my closet reflect one or more of these style types. Choosing what I wear on a given day can have more to do with how I feel and how I want to express myself than anything else.
How Do You Find Your Personal Style?
You first need to start paying attention to style. Get curious about what clothing you like and what clothing you don’t. Make a decision that finding your personal style is important to you and start with this style quiz.
Then ask yourself the following questions:
What colors, silhouettes, and looks are you drawn to?
Do you like to be on trend or is it more important for you to have classic timeless pieces?
What style qualities do your favorite pieces in your wardrobe possess?
Do you like to shop in vintage stores or do you prefer shopping for high-quality pieces?
When you start asking yourself these questions, you start to have more awareness of what your personal style is. Another thing that is helpful when determining your style is creating a moodboard. Whether you use Pinterest, Google, or another visual platform like magazines; creating a moodboard of looks that you love can help you not only know what your Personal Style is but it can also help you know your ideal Personal Style.
Knowing your personal style will help you make better choices in your closet and give you the confidence to feel great in your clothes.
