Today, Explained

Why is personal style so hard?

04 May 2025

Description

Fashion has made a big swing from a strict set of rules to the idea that we should all just wear what we want. But personal style is still dictated by outside forces. And a lot of people don't even know where to start. This episode was produced by Victoria Chamberlin, edited by Jolie Myers, fact checked by Melissa Hirsch, engineered by Matthew Billy, and hosted by Jonquilyn Hill.

81.731 - 99.504 Unknown Speaker

I have had a lot of trouble, I think, growing up trying to find clothes that fit me well and that I feel comfortable in. I'm 21. I feel like it's been a journey to figure out what I like to wear, what I feel comfortable in. It's taken me probably like three years, I don't know, throughout college, my style changed a lot.

100.505 - 110.332 Unknown Speaker

I did not know how to dress or figure out what looked good or understand what worked for me, what I liked, and felt like it was just such a frustrating process.
