Ha. I will have style again once I'm done having kids. Right now my style is leggings/yoga pants with a oversized shirt and tank underneath that I can nurse in.
At work(school) I would wear a lot of dresses or leggings with long sweaters w boots. I also have a habit of wearing patterns/prints that don't really match but almost match and loud colored shoes or leggings. I guess my dress type is a little quirky with my mismatching.
I use to run all my going out outfits by Patrick for final approval, but now he's dead <sigh>. So I guess I'm on my own. I know he'll be watching me with that side eye, head cocked, crooked smile like "no, just no, go put on the tight pants".
Aaaaaannnnd that's enough to Debbie downer for one day, moving on....
I wear comfy, semi casual, nursing friendly. Blacks, greys, teal, burgundy. Lots of leggings and scarves here! Mostly LuLaRoe... It's all stretchy which is what I need. My go to is leggings, the Irma tunic, and some other layering piece (scarf, vest, cardigan). I feel like once I'm done nursing I'll have even more opportunity to explore my style.

I guess I'm kind of boring. I'm too lazy and cheap to follow trends but I do like to look nice for work, so I guess classic is my style? I wear a lot of pants and cardigans with or without statement necklaces or scarves this time of year. I did fall in love with dresses when I was pg with DD (never really liked them before at all) so I've acquired several since she was born. Just got this one (pic below) for my birthday from DH and wore it with my new grey booties and tights the other day. I like Modcloth, Banana Republic, and Loft the most for work clothes. For casual, I do only skinny jeans (best ones are White House Black Market) with various sweaters, tunics, blouses, etc. depending on the weather/what the occasion is. I live in comfy clothes at home. Favorite shoes include Toms, Birkenstocks, flats, boots (NOT uggs), and occasionally my Dansko clogs (they're just so practical for teaching so I have both brown and black).
Same! I love those shoes! Are the flat? I can't tell.
I'm a toms addict-- these are very low wedge toms booties in taupe! They go with everything and are pretty comfy still. I rarely wear anything with a heel so these are a nice change of pace. They were a bit of a splurge for me, but I'll get some use out of them.
Living in lounge pants and yoga pants postpartum. But normally I'm pretty casual; jeans, tee or a cute top, flat boots in the winter or sandals in the summer. I was doing stitch fix prior to this last pregnancy and plan to start it up again to add some cute pieces once I lose some of the weight. Here's some outfits I have saved that I liked on Pinterest that sort of represent my ideal style.

Pre baby I went towards classic pieces, Fitted dresses, and blouses. Now that I stay at home I'm usually in jeans or yoga pants and a tshirt. Even though I lost all the baby weight, my body wasn't the same so a lot of my clothes didn't fit right post baby.
Now it's all maxi dresses, tshirts and cardigans. I've told DH that once we are done having kids I am investing in a wardrobe of better staples that are more like my pre baby self loved, but just with better fits.
I rock yoga pants or work out pants almost every day. I have about 15 pairs of jeans but I always end up wearing the same ones! I have no style and try to buy cute things but don't ever wear them unless we got out. Which is never. Debbie downer over here!
I wish someone would dress me every day. I need work clothes that can be doubled as weekend wear. I also need to find flattering clothes for the weird muffin top.

I love the Irma top for this reason! I still have so much muffin top going on. And the Cassie pencil skirt is nice and stretchy. They pair well together or separately. Very comfy.
Liv I used to get dressed up but since the 2 pregnancies I wear casual-ish clothes, as long as it's not jeans or tennis shoes. I wear a lot of dresses and flats but that will make it hard to pump now.
For me, I'm definitely preppy and would wear everything j crew if I could, but $. That's the style I like best and try to make happen, but I feel like more often than not I fall short.

Style? I still dress like a college student :/ Jeans & screen printed t-shirts most of the time. The only thing that changed is I never wear heels on anything, boots or lady killers, not even kitten heels. My feet are a mess, I have to get my butt over for custom insoles sometime. I do wear dresses on occasion. My hair is generally a mess. I'm a mess tbh.
I try to dress up sometimes... it makes me feel awkward though. Which is weird, but there it is.

+1 for feeling awkward when I try to dress up.
Plus I never wear heals. Ever. Being 5'10 (and I have been since about 10th grade) it always makes me super self conscious to be even taller.
I mostly look like a homeless person. 90% of the time I am in yoga pants and a (probably stained)t-shirt, when I get dressed I usually do skinny jeans and cardigans. I do love my uggs. But I have super wide hobbit feet so most shoes aren't comfortable. In my prekids days I loved getting dressed up.

I seriously live in Levi's slimming pull on leggings. I got mine in a size bigger than I normally wear in jeans because of comfort. I really need to buy a second pair. Its what I usually wear all weekend long.

I found them by accident. I was at the store and needed a pair of jeans to try a shirt on with and they happened to be right by the dressing room. LOVE THEM!
At work I'm librarian chic. So yeah, there's that.
I'm not very put together when I'm casual. I'm a jeans and t-shirts girl. I don't really try to follow trends because I have a hard time finding things that fit me right (I haven't jumped on this boot trend because I can never find shoes that are comfy and fit right, and then any pants that would work with boots are hard to find in a short enough size and I get so tired of having stuff altered...it's a never-ending cycle.)
I finally found work pants that are short enough I do not have to hem them. I am unreasonably excited. I bought them in black and gray (my usual) I may go back for the dark blue.
Also, I lucked out and got the best sales person ever. They didn't have my size in either color, and I was returning a pair of pants. So she returned my pants and put the money onto one of their gift cards then ordered the two pants and then discounted them down to the amount that was on the gift card so I got both pairs for around $36!
