We have considered:
Frida (like Frida Kahlo bc of her “unibrow” and the only other marking she has is the tip of her tail, like it was dipped in paint)
Gouda
Possum
Squirrel
Cleo
Bizzy
Her companion and my resident cat is Bob.
I’m 35 and trying to figure out how to dress myself in a way that actually feels like me. Here’s a little board of my primary wardrobe.
I’m 5’11”, around 250, broad/framed, and work in a corporate business casual office and industrial environment (industrial space requires a wardrobe change and specific clothing separate from this) where I need to look competent but not overly formal. I don’t wear makeup, don’t enjoy overly feminine styling, and I care more about comfort, texture, and silhouette than trends. I have some sensory issues to cater to, and pants are never long enough.
I align toward an “academic / earthy / formidable” vibe.
I’m trying to avoid:
looking frumpy
looking overly corporate
looking “young” in a forced way
tiny delicate details that get visually lost on me
stiff business casual
I think I may be a Flamboyant Natural
What I need help with:
What’s working here?
What looks off?
What pieces/categories are missing?
What shoes/accessories would elevate this?
How do I make this look intentional instead of “teacher/art teacher/library”?
How do I keep this aesthetic while still looking polished in a professional environment?
I’m not trying to become trendy or hyper-feminine. I just want to look like a grounded, intelligent adult woman who understands herself
