dressing like others

[Stephanie Armstrong]

Does anyone else dress like women you know? I.e. ex girlfriends or coworkers. I guess taking style ques from them. Trying to find exact matches to their outfits. It can be hard to find older items but fun just the same..currently in surch of a business style jumpsuit from some one i knew long ago.

Yes I have and still do. It is about my favorite quirk. I have borrowed the outfits they were wearing in a few cases and duplicated it if it was someone I couldn't share with due to size or what ever, not wanting to be outed most of the time. I have trouble now with my size and physical condition doing it but I still clone my wife from time to time with duplicates of her things, mannerism, clothes, hair and makeup. It is a lot of fun and stimulating when you can share the session.

I tend to dress like other women I know who work in my field, or maybe a lil more femme. I love to look nice, which makes me feel nice. It's my 'high' when I see how pretty i look in the mirror in to morning before trudging off to work. I know I do better work and feel more positive when I feel pretty. Even my boss has commented on it, and she dresses nicer now than she did when she first hired me. She said she couldn't let me outdo her :)

in the 90's I used to work in a typical office, were women wore skirt suits, nylons and heels. That was the style I gravitated towards. I now work in a health care facility where everyone wears scrubs uniforms. Everyday styles these days seem to be more focused on comfort rather than attractiveness. I am seldom inspired by what I see women wearing around me. Every once in a while I will see a look that I find attractive and try to emulate it. Sometimes that is hard because some of the items the look may be a couple of seasons out and it's difficult to find the pieces to complete the look.

I don't dress like anyone in particular, including my wife. I just try to dress like the sister I never had or me if I had been born a woman. So - no "hooker" outfits, no six inch heels.

Being raised in the 50's and 60's, I guess I'm going more for the June Cleaver look.
It's sort of a habit now,
I get dressed, put on my makeup and do whatever it is I need to do for the day.
I guess now it's more the chubby little old lady theme.

S A:

In concept, I would probably emulate my mother. '48 is my birth year, so I was an adolescent and teenager in the 50's and 60's. I think my dressing has a lot of sensibilities from that time period and I do have some items from those times. However, I do mix those elements with things from the 70's to the 90's as a stylish blend. It would not be considered in style, per se.

As far as I remember, I haven't tried to go after any particular outfit. As my mother passed away in '88, I'm largely going from memory anyway, so it is really more of an impressionistic thing.

Stephanie,
I tend to dress by working outfits out, if I find a nice skirt in a charity shop, I'll search out clothes, accessories and shoes to bring it all together, so I don't copy any particular woman just do my own thing and thoroughly enjoy it.

I observe women to see what styles they wear, what looks good on a woman my age and size.
I don't specifically dress like them, I just use the cues they provide and find items that work for me and what I'm comfortable in.

Not exactly, but I het so jealous of what some women around me wear, lol.
