What’s Her Style? Valentine’s Day Shopping Cues based on Personality
This one is for the straight males floating through freshpair.com. I know you’re there! Just a friendly reminder that Valentine’s Day is coming up, and if you’re here you probably already thought of that, and maybe you stopped by looking for some naughty outfit that your girlfriend will look at and then look at you with the “what were you thinking?” look, you know that one.
Well somehow you made your way here and whether you realize it or not, that is the best thing that happened to you today. Today I’m going to try to give you an insight into how your girlfriend’s personality can help you pick the right set for V-day, and not your visceral reaction to how it looks on the girl in the picture!
Think about it, girls want to feel understood, and fashion being the language many speak, it’s the perfect way to show her you get it! Even a girl who is anti-fashion still expresses herself through clothing, we all do. For instance as a guy you think its appropriate to pop your collar or you don’t, it is a very clear line and that’s based on your personality!
Here’s a couple of the “types” your girlfriend might fit into, you’re on your own after this because if you are scratching your head and thinking which is she…well I can’t help you there!
The Young at Heart
If you’re not dating this girl now, you definitely have dated her or met her. She doesn’t want to grow up; she’s into video games or books that take her back. It’s a girl that rocks and parties and no matter what her age has that wild carefree nature about her. Don’t try to tie her down with sophisticated fashion, she’s beyond that. Try PJ Salvage or Paul Frank for that sweet young at heart look.
Here are some of my suggestions:
The Green Queen
Your girlfriend might have been born in the 60’s, she screams flower child and she’s definitely your new age hippie. She loves colors most people don’t wear like olive, purple, and orange in combo. For this free spirit pick things that are out of the box, because she wouldn’t be caught dead in something that fits in with the crowd. Go for fun prints, colors, and maybe a lace and micro combo in colors that look unique. A good brand to look at for her: Free People

The Hipster
You know what hipster means right? You don’t? How do you not know? Come on, hipsters are not hippies, they are “hip”, conscious of fashion and they definitely create their own style with unique mix and match pieces that are nowhere near as earthy or out there as a true hippie, but that definitely not at that worldly feel. Look for pieces that mimic her daily style. If she’s hip try something like yoga or harem pants for around the house paired with a cute cami. ADAM carries a lot of styles that would work great for hipsters out there.

The Sophisticate
Who knows what colors she wears, maybe she goes with black or pale pink and pearls, but whatever it is she has a signature color (that you can bet is different than all her friends!) She hangs with a crowd that lives and dies by fashion, and they never want to look like they tried, but you can tell she has a style all her own. They tend to lean more towards minimalist in the accessories end it’s a clean pulled together look this girl goes for. If she’s a little bit more feminine than hipster try something sophisticated and clean like On Gossamer or Calvin Klein.
Suggestions for the Sophisticate:
The Stepford
She cooks, she bakes, and she wears pearls and cashmere sweaters. She loves all things Martha, but she definitely has a style all her own that reminds you of the good old days you might not even have lived through. She’s attracted to delicate things that remind her of herself, because she makes every effort to be attractive, pulled together, yet delicate herself! Try anything lace, embroidered, and pastel. Elle Macpherson Intimates gets the combination of delicate and feminine right for this queen of the home.

The Glamazon
She is hot, she wears skin tight clothing and loves her body although not hard like the athletic is definitely attractive to you, the opposite sex. She’s a modern Marilyn, a flirt and sexy are words that come to mind. She probably likes colors that rev your engine like red and hot pink, and a little bling even if they’re not diamonds always helps make this girl feel at home. Check out anything Wacoal luxe.

The Athletic
She is not afraid of a good game, a good beer, or a good workout! She’s still a girl and you know and love this about her, but she can definitely hang with the guys doing whatever. She needs underwear that moves with her, and if you pick right you’ll appreciate eying her physique in them as well, because this girl no doubt has a rocking body! This girl will love Bjorn Borg that will flatter her physique and love of sports, as well as Diesel’s girlfriend friendly boyish style.
