Exploring Super Styles – Do you choose outfits in advance, or on the day?

The Super Styles take a simpler look at style and how we think, feel, experience, and envision our style.  We’ve chunked the 16 Style Types up into these 4 groups by identifying the similarities in each Super Style we found in our research. There are only four groups, instead of the 16 Style Types so you stand back and take a big picture look at how you’re approaching your style through the lens of these four fabulous Styles:  the SF Style Aesthetician, the ST Style Pragmatist, the NT Style Strategist, and the NF Style Dreamer.

Understanding your Super Style will give you a broad overview of what makes up the essence of your unique Style Type.  Your Style Type Report will give you the details and specific information you need to chart then travel your own authentic style pathway.

In this series of posts where we explore the Super Styles, we’ll be taking the responses to our Facebook post questions about style and sharing them with you, grouped by Super Style, to illustrate the way that each of the Super Styles goes about style.

 

Do you choose outfits in advance, or on the day?

The Style Strategist – iNtuition and Thinking (NT)

  • Both depending on the day and my mood (INTP)
  • Most always on the day. Except for travel – I am a mood dresser so even if pre-planned I may not feel like that & change my mind (INTJ)
  • Only when travelling, otherwise I go with my mood for the day (INTJ)
  • Depends on my week: if it’s full on, I lay every outfit out in advance, if it’s cruisey, I go day by day! (ENTP)
  • On Wednesday’s I wear pink… but otherwise I try to plan ahead the night before so getting ready in the morning is easier (ENTJ)
  • I lay my outfit out the night before but sometimes I change one or two things in the morning, if I don‘t think it is working like I thought. (ENTJ)

The Style Aesthetician – Sensing and Feeling (SF)

  • I always plan the night before if I know what I’m doing and what the weather will be. I don’t like it if I can’t decide or if something changes. I love to have a complete outfit sorted in my head so I can go straight to it in the morning! (ISFJ)
  • Ahead if there is an event. Routine days I prefer to decide the night before. However, because I’m a morning person I’m often just too tired to be creative at night and I wait till morning. (ESFJ)

The Style Dreamer – iNtuition and Feeling (NF)

  • I plan it the evening before, and then change it in the morning depending on how I feel and what I want to say. (ENFJ)
  • I gotta get a feel for my mood and the weather before I decide (INFP)
  • I consider the weather and my commitments for the day and think about what’s appropriate. Then I: A. See what’s clean and, B. See if it inspires me. Step one gives me a direction and step 2 allows for happenstance. (INFP)
  • I may have to wear something else because I can’t find what I felt like putting on in the vertical filing wardrobe i.e. on the heap on the floor, or it needs a wash (INFP)
  • Being largely retired it’s what comes to hand and suits my mood on the day. Events take planning, though maybe just to a ‘shortlist’ the previous night. When packing to go away, I put things I *might* want to take in a pile to save it from ending up in the wash, add to it randomly, and then sift out what I want closer to the time (INFP)
  • My outfits choose me. (INFP)
  • For upcoming events, I plan ahead because of a picture in my head what I want to look like. For everyday (SAHW) i just go with the flow. (INFJ)
  • For work days I usually plan in advance. Play days I go with what seems fun. (INFJ)
  • On the day. Although sometimes it’s just picked up from the ottoman from the night before…… If it’s a special occasion I plan ahead though. (INFJ)
  • If it’s an event I plan in advance and then change my mind! Lol For everyday, I wear what feels right for the day, activities and weather. (INFJ)
  • I plan and then change my mind, lol. (ENFP)
  • If I am in a hurry the clothes set out the previous night are worn. (ENFP)
  • Mostly on the day unless I’m presenting. I tend to go with what feels right on the day (ENFP)
  • On the day (ENFP)
  • Both depending on the day, and the mood, and what else has my attention! (ENFP)

The Style Pragmatist – Sensing and Thinking (ST)

  • Unless I’m totally exhausted, I usually have a general idea of what I am going to wear the next day, at least the pants if not the top, too. But if the weather forecast changes drastically overnight, I will wear something different, if necessary. (ISTJ)
