Mine is a cross between a witch in Harry Potter and an early Noughties rock chick (depending on my mood.) It's either long bell sleeved tops, long swishy skirts and pointy toed ankle boots, or band t-shirts, knee length skirts, stripy socks and combat boots. A strange combination! In the summer I sometimes dress in an almost regency style, as I have some summer dresses that fit that look. Smile

One small step up from overweight hobo. Unfortunately.

Dresses with colour and/or prints, black leggings in winter and flat leather shoes or boots. Messy/curly hair pinned back on one side, earrings, mascara, eyeliner and a lipstick. A cardigan if it's cold. I get plenty of compliments and I'm done dressing really quickly. Make up takes a few minutes. I like to look nice but really can't be arsed to put a full face of make up on or do a blow dry so this is my happy medium.

Heavily tattooed, sleeve and chest piece. I usually wear 50's dresses with cardigans, always sport a big leopard print coat. Hair ties and converse. So kinda vintage/Pat Butcher I guess with a 12 year olds face.
Lately though it's leggings and a baggy top with holes in and no bra because I need to lose weight and I'm very unhappy with myself. I don't know why but when I'm bigger I don't see a point in making any effort with anything. It can even affect showering/bathing because I disgust myself to look at.

Utilitarian urban cowgirl.

...or maybe Rugged Urban Cowgirl, I can't decide.

Interesting thread...I know what I'd like to look like but never get it.
I'm looking to reinvent me this year...new wardrobe needed as bag lady 80s isn't in anymore

Work I love a pencil skirt with jumpers shirts or tops. I attempt to look glamorous but not sure I can quite pull it off. Kind of built a uniform for myself so I don't have to think too hard in a morning.

Home it's joggers or pj's. Social life jeans or a nice dress in another attempt at glamour. I do feel I don't quite make it but not sure why (confidence maybe)

Can’t recall which comedienne I’m paraphrasing, but like a woman whose car has crashed over the edge of the road into a ditch and who is just clambering back over the embankment 🙄
