[...] The Demoiselles: Translating boyception – how they perceive our style [...]

1. the “natural” beachy chick that can be ready in 2 minutes

2. the preppy, classic girl

3. the “fashionista, carrie bradshaw” type that collects shoes and clothing and dresses more sexy

4. punk, rocker chick style

let’s teach them a lesson! i’m sick of these categories! it’s insulting!

I know if I asked John what he thought of my style, he would say “You dress like my cute (adorable, beautiful, adjective of the day) girlfriend,” and give me a kiss. He is generally apathetic, but when I solicit his opinion, he is honest and helpful. Example: I have a dress that I love, but it is Trashy Short in the back (boo). I tried putting it over a pair of skinny jeans (ugh) and a pair of leggings after that (double ugh). I asked him what he thought both times, and he kind of made a face – which was awesome for me, because I know he doesn’t give a shit about style, but he knows what looks good and flatters (if that makes sense?), and I can trust that I won’t walk out of the house looking like a Tragic Thing if I try something new. And when I dress up, or put on make-up and do my hair, he always says, “You look nice!” and gives a smooch.
It’s nice to know that I can put on a pair of jeans and a tee, or a shirtdress and little flats, and get the same reaction. Hooray!

I’m currently without a boyfriend; but last year I had a guy ask me if I was from Orange County, and when I said I was from New York, he was completely shocked. He said my style was so much like the girls from “Laguna Beach.” I thought it was a weird remark. It made me wonder if he thought I was rich, or something; which I’m totally not – hello, broke college student here!

His perception of me was just strange. Since then, I’ve always contemplated whether something that I’m wearing is too California-girl or not. I know, I know…dumb. But I do.
