- Your style is not lazy, it's just athleisure. Athleisure is the most important fashion trend of the 2010s to now and it's for a reason - in 2023 comfort is STYLE. Your lazy days don't need to be your unfashionable days - your sporty, practical, casual items can have their moment if you style them right.

This has just confirmed I don't have stone as n style root . AND THAT IS OKAY . BUT it explains why I am always over dressed 👗 😅
😂😂😂 yes. Same.
Same anything relaxed is not me, I like balletcore and pink pilates princess because they're still elevated and show figure. But I love the earth x stone looks for how cozy they look. And the sun x stone outfits were so fun.
Same. I already didn’t think I had stone but now I know I don’t. I really only will wear leggings to the gym or under everything for warmth in winter when its -40 out.
I believe leggings are NOT pants but I have Stone because I like the jeans and a tee vibe, denim shorts, dressing down something too pretty and a bit of a street style vibe. I don't think stone has to be leggings. Plus I also love to dress up super girly!
@@stephallen9819 Same. For me leggings are for working out, lounging at home or sleeping, or maybe under a shorter dress in place of tights in winter (I like the jumper dress, leggings and boots combo for autumn-winter). I do like the opinions Ellie proposed though for wearing athleasure without wearing leggings, or to combine leggings with something more dressy to elevate it.
I'm a soft classic and for some reason whenever I wear mushroom + stone (or I like to call it cozy athleisure) I look like I'm living my best life and thriving. I guess the simplicity and balance really works for soft classics, or something, it just looks right and makes me feel so confident
So Ms. Elle, I have followed you for quite some time. As a writer and former actor, your insight into wardrobe and character profile never ceases to amaze me.
But I think your greatest gift, and I will be waiting for your future styling tv show, is how you break down style to its most bare bones. Never in my life would I have considered using this aesthetic. It seemed to boxy, and kind of stiff for my romantic ingenue frame. But the moment you mentioned ballet core, it’s like a freaking lightbulb went off in my brain. I have always hated casual clothes because it never mind ME pop. Now I’m going on Amazon immediately so I can finally look decent in casual wear! ❤
I do alot of long dog walks, gardening and exercise classes and so always thought stone was one of my roots because naturally I'm often in clothes that match stone. But this video has been really useful in showing me how I can wear "practical items" and still compliment my roots (Mushroom, Moon and fire)
I wear a lot of stone clothes too, but that's just because they fit my life now (mom with three young kids😅), not because the look especially appeals to me. This video really made that clear to me - I love the look on others, but when I want to look nice, not just practical, these are not the clothes I reach for.
I think that is where the difference of stone versus mushroom or stone versus earth comes in, because those two also have a casual element. But mushroom is casual tending towards minimalistic and smart-casual and Earth is casual tending towards outdoors / sporty and maybe boho for a feminine element.
I have both mushroom and earth (together with flower) so it took me a while to understand that I am not stone.
I also think it can make a difference if we wear athleasure / casual on the top or bottom half, because of body type. I easily look sloppy if I wear too loose trousers - even if it’s formal trousers they that are wide leg - but for example straight leg jeans with a sweater that is oversized or a hoody looks good on me. I can apparently only do athleasure on my top half 😅
Yes! I too am learning that having a lifestyle that requires practical clothing is not the same as having a stone style root, and that you can make any style roots more practical without sacrificing your identity.
LOL the way that the earth+stone examples were basically my whole wardrobe... there's no doubt now about my core roots 😆 can't wait to figure out the 3rd - love this series!
I needed this. I wasn't sure which is my third style root since I've been checking your boards on Pinterest. I know I'm mainly casual, and I love simplicity with timeless as my main words, yet there was this itsy bitsy of something else I couldn't pinpoint. Thank you for helping find ourselves and our style Ellie, your work is amazing
I am waiting on more Pinterest boards! I know they take time to do. 56 total and she has done 33 so far so 23 left to go!
I’m a Moon-Stone-Earth girlie! I am a stay at home mom with two young kids so casual comfort is an important part of my daily wardrobe and I’ve really embraced that. To me it’s a little bit of rebellion too, I refuse to be uncomfortable. Now that I’ve embraced that aspect of myself, I have really elevated my athlesiure game and I’m so confident in this personal style I’ve curated 🩶
I'm Earth-Moon-Stone! If we were friends in real life we'd be obsessed with each others style 😄
I love your suggestions on how to pair stone with other style roots! While stone is not one of my main style roots (moon, mountain, mushroom). I often wear athletic/sporty outfits because I love weight lifting, martial arts, hiking, and camping. Since I’ve been more conscious of my personally style, I try to choose comfortable and practical clothes that also fit into my style roots.
I was always worried that my sense of style was fundamentally "boring" even if I do think about the clothes I like putting on, this actually explained a lot. My root is definitely stone with a side of mushroom and fire
Ok this has confirmed for me that stone is my main style root… The stone & mushroom and stone & earth are basically my wardrobe! Thank you! 🪨 🍄 🌱
(The way you did this by taking stone and showing examples with each of the other style roots was so helpful).
For your style roots, I think we can also lean towards one or another depending on our mood etc. and vary in to which degree we want to express them, if that makes sense. So for instance for me the difference is really big in my flower root; some days it is my main focus, while other days I don't want to feel delicate so I don't incorporate it.
Same. I really think I am Earth, flower & sun. Some days I love the girly and some days Im a dirty hippy.
@@Diniecita😂 I can relate but moon instead of sun. A bit of edge, ethereal and country.
I was trying to figure out if I have stone, and the stone + earth combo totally fits my style! I wear some hiking boots and a baseball cap with almost all my outfits (even more artistic/expressive and formal outfits) and I didn’t think to attribute it to stone. In retrospect it makes so much sense though! It’s also convenient since both fit with my Natural essence and kibbe type. Now i just need to figure out if I lean more flower or sun for my third style root, and I’m all set.
Thanks for the video!
Wow! The bit about elevated stone really clicked for me. I was sure stone wasn’t one of my roots until I realized I have those elevated elements in my closet. That’s what I wear publicly while wearing athleisure in the house or gym only. Thanks for clearing that up for me!
Maybe you are more mushroom than stone? I think there is some overlap between the two, as they are both casual style, but mushroom is more smart casual and stone more sporty casual.
I am pretty sure that Stone is my main style root.I really like the one to one examples with the others I am narrowing it down with my three roots. I still need to see the ones on Earth and Mushroom (and the rest of course!
This helps to confirm my style roots as Stone, Earth, and Sun!
My friend who is sun, moon, stone wears alot of light wieght cottn trousers with bright, fun or spooky patterns on them.
My suspicion is confirmed. This video has confirmed for me what my style roots are! 🪨🍄🌏
Thank you for the in depth style root videos, Ellie Jean!
Hello style root twin!
Thanks for this video. A lot of times I live in leggings because I’m in rehearsals so Stone and Flower really spoke to me! I’m a theatre girl and used to take ballet as a kid and I’ve always loved that look! I think my third root might be sun or mushroom but idk 🤷♀️
I love cozy athleisure styles like black joggers and hoodies! However, and I don’t even know if this counts as athleisure, one trend I can’t get onboard is biker shorts/workout gear under a blazer! To me it just looks messy 😅 I think in a few years we’ll be cringing at that style.
I totally get where you're coming from, it feels like they should clash because it's a mix of extremes, but I just went to look at pictures and it's not that bad to me somehow. I think it's because it's all crisp, smooth-looking and structured fabric, which helps to tie the together. One thing I noticed is that if the person in the photo is wearing a slouchier outfit, like with sweatpants, they have a matching blazer, for example tweed, which isn't as stiff.
@@sparklecharmer hmm, I get where you’re coming from, and I’ve looked at several variations of the style, but it really does just look like they forgot to put pants on before heading to the office 😅
Thank you for this video! When you did your original style roots tests, I didn't get stone - in fact, I only got two styles roots (overwhelmingly flower and moon) and the rest were tied at three terms each. Now, after this deep dive into stone, I realized hey, not only do I wear clothes similar to stone/flower and stone/moon, but I've already been wearing clothes similar to your elevated stone ideas! So Flower/Moon/Stone it is! Thanks for helping me find my third style root!❤
This was very helpful, especially with mixing the style roots. I’m 52, and as I’ve been getting older, I’m getting more into comfortable styles, but I work a professional job at a military base. Mixing the two styles has been interesting.
Through this channel I’ve learnt that I’m a soft gamine with a bright spring palette and stone, sun and fire roots. It’s simplified my wardrobe so much!
I was super skeptical about this style analysis until I started using it. I had an “oooooh!” moment. I am flower, earth, and stone.
I love athleisure. I think it makes perfect sense for my personal style and lifestyle since one of my style roots is stone and I work from home for a fitness company. Athleisure is a perfect dressed comfortably at home but I still look put together enough for zoom calls and going out look.
Thank you for your help Ellie -Jean ❤
This video was so valuable!! Thank you for mounting out great quality content!
Fabulous video, and so much info!
This is a great video! I definitely have gotten into cycles of wearing only athlesure but I also invested in good quality brands and nice styles so they looked cute and intentional. All the examples look intentional and high quality so it’s not frumpy and rather chic!
Colour choice is also key😌 stone is not my style roots but i make it mine with lots of colours and patterns (mine are earth, moon and flower)
This is so helpful. Stone is my primary style root and this has really helped me narrow down my other two
Oh my God, I love you for making this because stone is one of my primary style feels because I love urban sporty outfits
This video came at the perfect time, I've been going through your videos about style roots and I'm finding myself to very stone/earth. Thank you for the content :)
OMG I've been waiting for this for such a long time. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I'm totally a Mushroom, Stone, Sun and Earth kind of Style Root and I love it.
I love these deep dives so much!!
I love these deep dive videos! Very excited to see the ones for mushroom or sun as they come! As I've been confused on how to incorporate these two contradicting roots as someone with a love for vintage styles 🤔❤️
I am so happy about this video for my clarity on each style root and how they intersect with the other ones. I do think my primary is stone and then sun, flower, and mountain
This just made everything click for me. Thank you so much!
As much as I've fought it, I think the Stone Style is one of my main style roots (if not THE main root). I love that you highlighted ways to make other styles work with this one👏
Hello! Just want to say that it was one of your shorts on the rockstar girlfriend aesthetic where you showed different style roots in that particular style that has made me realise my first official core style root is stone! It then led me to this video and now it's confirmed that 🪨 and 🌸 are my 2 style roots (haven't figured out the 3rd yet, just doing 2 for now). Like many, I was confused with this concept because I prioritised what I THOUGHT I needed to be over who I truly am, that includes overcoming the stories I kept telling myself about myself (which aren't true). 🪨 and 🌸 is very much what my teenage self loved to wear and I didn't realise how she is and always has been the core of who I am. Shopping is so much easier now. Thank you!
This video is so helpful!! Thank you!!! ❤
Love that we can change our style roots ❤
Please do a video on ethereal essence + other essences.
I feel like there aren’t many ethereals other than the very typical examples so it’s a bit confusing.
I think i have ethereal/natural/dramatic but I haven’t figured out how ethereal and natural combine (i think maybe zoe kravitz might be an example?)
Why i say this.. I feel best and get most complimented in arsty looks and get mystical adjacent compliments (mystical, goddess, etc). I have high contrast though so dark hair and light skin so I don’t “fade” like typical ethereal examples.
My style roots are earth, flower and moon and I’ve found a great style for anyone with the same as me who might want inspo - my style is a lot of patterns and retro 70s inspired, artsy patterns like paintings as fabrics and corset style tops. Mixing harsher elements like leather and vintage jackets with softer elements. I wear a lot of gold jewelry all at the same time like 3-4 necklaces, earrings, multiple rings on both hands on my three “middle” fingers, even a nose ring sometimes without it looking overwhelming and I get a lot of compliments. Basically I wear what I want and may seem costume-y on others but is authentic on me. I lean into ☀️ space iconography (planets and not of this world).
Bright bold (dramatic) and light girly (ingenue) do not look good on me at allll and neither does the sultry styles or trendy insta baddie. I can wear androgynous styles and oversized without looking too overwhelmed but can’t wear cutesy or ornate feminine styles or emo/goth styles without looking out of place. Im quite tall and lean so it helps. I also cant wear face makeup without looking too much instantly. My friend is similar to me, i’d say her style roots are much more moon leaning and she wears similar styles to me but darker and more moon like (she’s probably a moon, flower, fire?) so she’s much softer and more romantic than me (personality and looks). She wears flowy romantic dresses and soft knits and lots of silver but still has her very unique style that isn’t trendy at all.
So yeah that’s some inspo, thanks for reading this far haha
great video! i'm a total leggings girl- especially during/post-pandemic- watching this video tho was a good reminder it's not lazy :) for anyone with a sun style root/who just likes color- lululemon always has fun colors in all their various athlesiure. and since it was sort of mentioned in the video- skims has some great elevated loungewear/athlesiure- they have a maxi dress that feels just likes pajamas but looks like you've rly put in effort *chefs kiss*
Watching this after a busy day off work wearing various shades of grey: AC/DC t-shirt over a long sleeve t-shirt, leggings, trainer socks & hoodie plus, sparkly Carvela trainers & an urban camouflage print dryrobe 🤭
Love athleisue wear when you’re busy doing sports/fitness class, shopping, organising, appointments, etc… Also like the classic ‘preppy’ style for smart/casual wear too when you don’t want to be looking too laid back or relaxed. Great ideas for day off, relaxed outfits for your own style essences 🩷
This is super helpful!
The video I have been waiting for!
Yesss!!! Stone is my primary style root. The second is moon. The third is mushroom. So happy to see examples of these combinations.
I love seeing your style combinations! It makes everything so clear 💕I'll need to look through earlier videos, but I would love to see sun, fire, and mountain if you haven't done it yet!
I absolutely adore that you're doing this!! I think I've got earth and stone in my roots, can't wait till your earth video because I think I may be able to find my third!!
Love these videos especially this one and the mountain video. So helpful! because my style roots are mountain, stone, sun & fire I believe I have four 😅
Stone is definitely not my style root (I knew that already), however any time you showed outfits that I would consider acceptable for me, it was while showing mix with my style roots (moon, fire, sun/earth)
I've figured out that stone is my third root, (I'm moon x flower x stone), but I didn't think it was one of my roots for a while because I don't like sporty/athletic style. I think stone reads more as casual and urban, but kind of in a subtle way, within my roots combo
I started dressing this way in college and it has always felt the most natural and comfortable for me.
FINALLYY!!! I found my style
Your hair looks amazing in this video 😊
I would love a clickable quiz for these so I can narrow down what my roots are.
Absolutely love this video! Wasnt that sure if stone is one of my style roots or not and niw i know:) it would be really nice to make a video on the sun or moon style root
This confirms that flower and earth are two of my style roots and that stone definitely not. The third one though is tricky for me.
Love this clarity! Stone Moon Mushroom ....eagerly looking for your links to some items 😍
I liked every single example you showed
YAAAASSS i need the same format for moon and fire 🥰😍
So helpful esp the last part! Bc I am autistic and dyspraxic I wear a lot of athleisure to meet my sensory and fine motor needs. But I don't think stone is one of my style roots, and I often feel I'm sacrificing style for comfort. I've been trying to balance the two, and you've illustrated some great ways to do that.
Fortunately, I think a lot of brands are starting to blur the lines now between athleisure and casual chic or business casual by making the former more smart and the latter more comfortable. Athleta, Eddie Bauer, Express, Universal Standard, Target and even Walmart are good examples of this.
A "hack" I've found is to shop in the maternity section even if you're not pregnant. Maternity clothes are not all oversized in the stomach as many are made to accommodate a changing shape, they come in a wide range of styles, and they are incredibly soft and stretchy.
leggings have a hold on us that only increased during lockdown. imo so do jeans. all my jeans have worn out at the same time and when buying new ones i just kept skipping the jeans in favor of other pant-styles. you should do a video on jeans too!
This is really helpful! I think stone and earth are two of my roots! Definitely a strong granola girl vibe.
I definitely have stone in my style roots. I have been wearing something sporty for years. Before it had a name. It just feels right.
Im not a leggings person but I am 100% Stone. I want to be comfortable more than anything. Then also sun. And then tbh its context dependent whether mountain or moon is more apparent.
Mushroom next please ;)? And thanks for another great video! With huge credits for giving the best advices and analyses about styles even if they are not yours, really impressive and clear and helpful.
Nice video. I think stone isn't in my style roots but i like to wear it because is comfortable to use in >80°F. My favourite was stone + earth but i can't wear that here
thanks to your videos, I've found out that I'm mostly stone, mushroom and sun. That's what makes sense to me. Thanks!
So I think I have Stone, Mushroom, and Earth. I’m super into denim joggers, and linen pants. My favorite shoes are like those ballet or Mary Jane shoes with a sneaker material. Skechers are my go to, but I can see the need to branch out because they can sometimes be too basic. This video definitely gave me some new ideas!
I love sketchers! I recently discovered legero, which are really comfy and also trainer-like but more formal because many come in leather or suede. Maybe look into that for a more elevated option that is still casual.
I'm still not sure how or if this falls into my style exactly, but I default to "althleisure adjacent + not looking so great" for my daily wear due to work. It's become so unpredictable I never know when I show up to the office if I'm going to be at my desk all day, up to my knees in a hole digging out a well, putting up 50 yards of fence board, or having to interact with homeowners or suppliers in town. It has honestly negatively impacted my self-esteem and how I feel about clothes in general. Definitely gonna have to give this another watch and see if there's a way to make myself feel better while maintaining the functionality I need.
I knew i was stone-sun anyway but never have i identified more than with the "lean towards pyjamas" advice 😂😂 i am at my absolute happiest if i look fun and playful but feel like i could crawl into bed 😂👌
Earth is definitely my primary style root, and I’m trying to decide the other two main roots. I basically know it’s not flower or fire, and it’s probably not moon because the color palette for moon really does not mix well with my color season, and that leaves mushroom, mountain, stone, and sun as options. I love practical, comfortable clothes - which would lean mushroom and stone - but I also really like that sort of wealthy, sophisticated connotation you get with mountain. I guess the total vibe I’m trying to give off at any given time is best described as “70s sleaze ex-rocker who tuned in, turned on, and dropped out after prep school didn’t go great for him” and I’m not sure what roots would encompass that best, lmao.
So interesting- although I do wear athelesiure because of my job that requires me to be active and bending/crouching/carrying/lifting/pushing/guiding small babies all day, I don’t love it and never feel like it’s “me” to be wearing it day in and day out. Feels like a struggle to find the comfort and flexibility of activleisure to match more tailored and chic clothing that I’m drawn to.
I definitely wear leggings all the time due to living a casual lifestyle and just physical comfort. I'm wayyy bottom heavy so anything without an elastic waist either falls down or is impossible to sit in! Love these ideas for how to dress leggings up. I really love elastic waist, slouchy linen pants in the summer too.
Slouchy linen pants for the win! I bought 3 linen trousers this summer and I love them so much that I’m now thinking about how to wear them into autumn.
@@s.a.4358 personally I like to pair them with a beachy-vibes sweater, scarf, and closed-toed espadrilles in early fall!
What a great video! I have been struggling to find my third style root. But now I know it is stone along with earth and sun. I hardly wear leggings, I think that threw me off. I love linen pants and cargo.
Can you make a fall styles for all style roots? I have 3 primary style roots with additional 2-3 that varies with my mood. I think it will be a great Fall themed video.
Stone. Sun. Flower!!!!
What if I don’t like Stone by itself but I really love the combination of Mountain and Stone? (FYI, I’m pretty sure my main style root is Mountain.) Does Stone still count as one of my three style roots?
I love the stone style root but find it hard with my soft dramatic body type 😅 any suggestions??
Watching this video has just confirmed what i know. I know im Stone , Moon, Fire and Sun . All these four are in my day to day outfits
I'm a flower and mushroom style root girl, but can't decide on the third one. I do wear functional pieces in an urban setting due to my lifestyle (backpack and sneakers in mushroom and fower style). I would never wear leggings or athleisure out and about. Do you think that my third root can be stone? Any advice appreciated 🌸
I feel like mine is Stone and I would NEVER wear leggings either. In her find your style root exercise video she listed words like casual, relaxed, street style for Stone and that's why I have it as one of mine with fire and sun. So I loved flirting/ sassy cuts and lots of colour but I do it in a casual way with lots of tshirts and denim and sneakers so that's my Stone!
@@stephallen9819 thank you for sharing your experience. Yes the jeans and t-shirt fabrics and urban casual relaxed styles are definitely my third vibe, I think I'm a toned down stone. :)
Maybe earth is your third one? Jeans and T-shirts can also be very earth + there is a casual and relaxed element to it. The way I understand it ‘stone’ is more sporty, looks good even in very casual clothes, skater girl, urban style, graffiti, etc and earth is more walk in nature or picnic in the park, gardening, pottery or painting, sport leaning more towards yoga (more connections with nature / self and less running) etc.
Ultimately I do think that there is some cross over between roots though, so especially with the roots that are not our dominant one it can be harder to pinpoint. It’s also perfectly fine to take inspiration from other roots.
@@s.a.4358 thank you for your insight, I started out as flower mushroom earth and maybe I'll circle back there. :) I think the overlap confused me and that I only use a small dose of them, but I guess earth now.
@@shanathelittle maybe you are a stone on earth 🙂 I think Ellie mentioned somewhere that she recommends picking 3 roots but that doesn’t mean there cannot be other influences.
What would you say is @looseunicorns style roots because I resonate deeply to everything she wears and want to emulate the same vibes 😍
Thank you! This video gave me some good ideas. That said, I'm wondering if you could talk about how to do Moon and Fire in a comfortable, flexible way for someone with chronic pain and health issues? I don't really identify with stone very much, but I end up dressing that way a lot. I can't wear tight pants, or things that put a lot of pressure on my neck and shoulders, and I have a lot of low-energy days. I also have a job and a dog to take care of, so I can't always wear beautiful flowing things (though I do wear a lot of maxi dresses when I can, and I LOVE them.)
I'm tall with broad shoulders (probably flamboyant natural). I love feeling sultry and magical, but my lifestyle and my health sway me away from those details. I usually end up looking like a big lump, or a lumberjack at best (earth is one of my roots for sure, so at least lumberjack is close to that?)
It always varies depending on the person and the day, but I have a few chronic health issues and fire is one of my style roots. I totally agree about maxi dresses!! I love them but I find midi-length (or shorter) ones more practical. For me earrings help a lot, and I also have quite a few different styles of scrunchies so even if I just throw my hair in a ponytail (or realistically a braid to avoid knots) it adds something. I think you could still use the colours from your style roots with more casual clothes, and also incorporate them in prints. I used to have a few tshirts that really fit with my fire style root because of the print! Not that she’d created style roots yet but still 😂 I also had a basic black long sleeve shirt with some lace panels on shoulders that I think was a great blend of fire and moon. And you can take care with choosing materials. To me soft or silky materials are part of fire! And they’re comfy, although they’re not always the most practical 😅 I think having a go to pair of shoes that includes your style roots also helps and is worth taking the time to think about and find. I have a pair of sneakers that are pink and shimmery, and they were cheap too! Also socks!!! There’s some really unique socks out there. For me waist emphasis is really important, for my kibbe type, comfort, and style, so there might be one aspect of silhouette that’s the most important to you too? Also you can always sacrifice one of your nicer items of clothing, I have a dress that I designated for days when I have to do messy, practical stuff but still really want to feel flowy 😂
Also lumberjacks are cool even if it’s not quite what you’re aiming for. That’s iconic in my eyes!!
For anyone else with moon and stone, don't forget about health goth!
I love maxi skirts and call them "crotchless yoga pants" lol.
But the hand gestures add to the magic 🌈 😂 Thanks for clarifying stone
How can I wear athleisure as a romantic body type? (stone/moon)
Please finish your Pinterest boards ❤ I need to see stone sun and moon! I think it's meeee
Personally I hate leggings. I feel so exposed in them. I wear them to the gym and under clothes in the winter. But, this was cool to see how people could style them in different ways. The only one I actually would wear was the earth example of shorts and a baggy shirt. I also loved the idea of linen pants. I used to have a pair but I lost a bunch of weight and got rid of them.
Thanks for this video. Im really waiting on the all earth video now though!!
Casually waiting for a moon, mountain and sun combination
Okay, now I'm confused :D I was always sure, Stone ist my main style root since urban and casual resonate with me and I find my day to day outfits (jeans, tee, trainers) very casual. I never wear leggings! I also would never wear jogging pants outside. Nor biker shorts and cargo pants are also a no for me. I always thought of athleisure as one way of doing Stone, not the main idea. But thanks so much for the video, this gives me something to further think about.
I felt the same but I feel like she explains that at the end- about the elevated stone that's what stone means to most people.
I don’t think athleasure is the only way to do stone. I think it’s more that athleasure is very representative of stone’s casual and sporty essence + it is a fashion trend that is current, so Ellie is also addressing that.
Ultimately it will also depend on your blend, because stone + mountain for example will have the formal influence of mountain, stone + flower will be more feminine / girly, etc. Living environment and culture also plays a role, because leggings and cargo pants are not acceptable clothing in all context and are still more casual than jeans.
Whats the difference between stone and mushroom
Does having most things with floral patterns mean you have flower roots?
I'm struggling with the style roots a little bit. I think some of them are more function related, like stone. There are times where athleisure, even elevated athleisure, makes sense, but you can still style it in a way that doesn't make you feel sloppy. And mountain seems like it's more for a corporate environment anyway. Whereas moon, fire, flower, sun, earth, and mushroom seem more like the expression of your environment. (E.g., you're going to work but if you're moon + fire, you opt for a silk top with some lace fringe underneath a black blazer + pencil skirt.) So it feels more like stone and mountain are "foundational" and "environmental." Wearing leggings, a cropped sweater, trainers, and an overcoat to go to workout, see a friend, and then coffee is more like "stylish utility" rather than "I like being casual" - but you wouldn't wear the same outfit in an office setting. Maybe I'm just not understanding quite how they work?
I think i have a stone root but I absolutely hate leggings. Anyone else?
I find stone too casual for myself. I lean towards mountain as it's more tailored. I Own one pair of leggings which I use only for layering when cold and plays into my earth style
Can you make flower and earth together? I have earth, flower and mushroom as my style roots but its hard to find examples. I like dresses and matching sets that has natural and floating farbrics (I am also flamboyant natural) but I dont like too girly styles as well (but I am trying to lean into that because I have ingenue essence mostly yin) so I pair them with mushroom style colors and fabrics. It would be really helpful if you combine flower and earth ❤
Omg are you me?! I am also a flamboyant natural with ingenue essence and earth, mushroom, flower as my style roots.
It took me a while I figure out that I have flower as a style root because I do not dress very girly and cutesy. But the ingenue influence and also my personality is the flower element.
I think being a flamboyant natural (and in my case also plus size) makes it somewhat harder to introduce the flower element, because FNs tend towards broader and taller and flower & ingenue tends towards small and cute, which is quite opposite. I also find that if I go too much into boho style, which one could see as a good way to combine earth and flower, it can easily look too hippy / Mother Earth and almost messy.
@@s.a.4358 :D I am a shorter flamboyant natural which is kinda ruins the fun of chunky clothes too (I am 1.65 cm) when I wear something too chunky or too yang (like oversized blazer with straight jeans) my face is screaming from my proportion. I have a cheeky face so my body looks good but my head looks photoshopped :D so I tried to bring some cuteness near my face as Ellie recommended but it didn't look quite well together. So I lean into boho dresses and floating fabrics which has both flower and earth elements but I didn't like them to be too boho patterned or too girlish (I also have an undying love for mushroom styles with old money aesthetic too. Like Jennifer Lawrence's new street style) moral of the story I am so confused and need help.. I hope she sees it and it'll help us find more examples.
@@amecourt it’s a struggle for sure!
I feel like jumpsuits and rompers could work.
Would u recommend white converse or black for an everyday casual outfit?
I think you need both - or maybe not necessarily white + black but certainly a light neutral and a dark neutral - to go with different outfits
@@s.a.4358 ok thanks I don’t want to get both currently as I am on a budget but thank you 🙏
@@elliesmith8038 makes sense. In that case I would say go for black / dark as you can wear it with more things, especially as we go into autumn and winter (unless you live in the southern hemisphere). I wear my dark shoes a lot more often than my light ones.
@@s.a.4358White is way more versatile, though. If you only wear white, black and dark blue clothes, black shoes can do the job, but I wear pink pants all the time, and black shoes would look so weird with them. White will work with literally everything.
@@emmamartin4045 I see what you mean. I guess it depend on one’s wardrobe. I wear black shoes with pink trousers often. In the end I think both have their place for different situations.
I did not think I was into athleisure look at all, but mushroom and stone is something I wear a lot. Also, when I was slimmer, pre-baby i used to often wear fire and stone
Also moon and stone a bit actually
Also mountain and stone 😂
astrology but for clothes 😍
