Elements, Layers, and Details
How do you get dressed in the morning?Â
Do you throw on what at least matches?
Or do you become alive in who you are and dress accordingly?
In my experience with self expression and style, I was able to identify these three elements that actually create something more than just your #ootd
Elements. Layers. Details.
Elements; a part or aspect of something abstract, especially one that is essential or characteristic (microsoft bing).
Elements are more than just colors and prints, it stretches onto the textures, fit, and adjustments. Adding elements, adds depth to your style that is unique to you.Â
Textures speak to help add emotion to your person. Are you fuzzy soft person today or a sleek leather? The fit and posture of your style lets others know comfort level and demeanor. Finally the adjustment of your garments specify attention.Â
Layering is a way of dressing using many garments that are worn on top of each other (wikipedia).
Layers and layering is so playful! It allows you to be flexible with your garments (and other aspects of fashion) and cater to your day to day activities.
Layering can both reveal and hide details at your bidding. This styling concept tells a story that holds mystery and discovery. You selected each piece that is layered and layered them in a specific order.Â
How does this reveal the small details about you?
Details are individual features or items (microsoft bing).
Details are everything. End of story.
One of the most unappreciated aspect of most people’s day to day style is the details. Personally it’s so obvious how needed it is, I can barely explain.
If you didn’t already have all the free will to dress yourself, you also have your details.
Just like elements, details go farther than just earrings and necklaces. Details include factors like your hair and hair accessories, belt, socks, makeup and nails, fur and bells.
Honestly, when I first meet someone, the thing that will catch my eye first is if they have details in how they express themselves.Â
With such specific selections, I believe it truly shows your journey to self discovery.
