The dullest pieces I can find. I like military jackets, sneakers, boots, plain shirts and rings.

I cant wear something two times successively without throwing it in the washing machine (compulsiveness), but I own several numbers of the same piece of clothing to give the impression of regularity.

 

 

Quick boring search on the internet, to get a general idea

I claim several pairs of these, they're like a... 'signature' look.

 

Comfortable, utilitarian clothes for the most part. Neutral colours, like black and grey, though I do have a fondness for green too (and there are some other colours in my wardrobe as well.. like blue and yellow).

I do like dresses and nice shoes and own those types of things too, although I don't wear them as often because I typically don't want the extra attention.

 

working from home:
- hobo cat lady pajamas (just being honest!)

going out to gym:
- leggings, sports bra, form-fitting tank top

going out somewhere casual:
- summer: high heel sandals, jeans, decorative top, jewelry
- fall: high heel boots, jeans, layers of tops/sweater/jacket, jewelry

going out somewhere nice:
- dress and heels, jewelry



I look best in muted earthy colors and most of my clothes are like that except my gym clothes where I have some bright colors out of necessity because I couldn't find my usual colors (but whatever it's just the gym)

I recently started buying larger jewelry because a statistical analysis of fashion pictures that I admired revealed that they were all wearing larger jewelry and I wasn't. my favorite necklace hangs all the way down to my belly button. I like that.

I am guilty of spending too much on jeans and shoes. I want those 2 things to be very high quality even if the rest of my outfit is inexpensive

 

Never anything fussy or elaborate. Comfortable and simple is the goal. Jeans and t-shirt is my go to clothing choice. At work I'll maybe wear a simple blouse, or nicer t-shirt and cardigan.

Color depends on the situation. Right now, for hanging around at home, shorts and a tie dyed t shirt that I made myself. I like a lot of color, but I don't like standing out, so out in public I wear usually solid colors, all sorts. But not pastels. They annoy me.

I didn't realize your avatar was that much visually accurate! now I know
:hampster:

 

Nothing that I like or dislike. I fit the stereotype quite well. I'm not surprised that it's an inaccurate description of INTJ women's attire.

 

I see comfortable and discrete stuff mostly.
I am never comfortable and I use all the damn colors in the crayon box.
I have a bittersweet relationship with attention.

I'm starting to question myself, am I really an INTJ? Hm

 

I'm starting to question myself, am I really an INTJ? Hm

I don't think the way you dress yourself matters when determining your type.

 

I have this mental image that somewhere out there is an INTJ who wears amazing jeans with a graphic t-shirt they found at the thrift store that has something very funny/ironic on it....and who wears this outfit to dance dubstep like a ninja, very skilled.

am I right??

 

Just look for Pinterest intj aesthetics and you'll find them x)

 

I have a t-shirt that has 'Sorry I'm late. I didn't want to come' emblazoned across the front, but it was a gift from a friend rather than a thrift shop.

 

Oh lol!! That definitely counts though

 

On another note, I do have a military jacket with a print that I like a bit too much but which looks like it was bought from the thrift store too... The Walking Dead type.

 

Aw, pinterest is down in the exact moment when I want to look at INTJ aesthetics.

Rage!!

 

Consider clothes shopping a chore, so there's a system:

1) No bows, ruffles, large strange looking buttons, flounces, fringe, textures, or patterns. Stripes is as far as it goes.
2) No outfits. Each piece should go with everything else as much as possible.
3) Since item 1) , simple shirts can be bought at cheaper stores and then replaced once dingy/faded from washing over time. Will buy the same shirt in 2 or 3 different colors. Usually gravitate towards grey, navy, black for neutrals and magentas, reds, corals for mixing.
4) Shoes, boots, belts, purses are simple but more expensive. Will buy the exact same pair of shoes again online once worn out as long as the style is still current.
5) Jeans

There is a disconnect between what actually I wear and what is admired. For example, a crisp fitted black and yellow dress would be awesome - on someone else's skin tone.

 

Well this is eerily similar to my formula. down to the letter. Including buying multiple copies of the things that I liked or wore out. really the only difference is I definitely have jeans in my "spend more" category but I don't put belts in that category...and I have a different color scheme but still try to buy things that are harmonious with that.

Hello, my twin!

 

My whole wardrobe is mainly jeans, black graphic t-shirts (though i do have some other brightly colored ones) and workout apparel.

Not really concerned about whether i draw attention to myself with what i wear. If it looks cool to me, then i'll wear it, whether its charcoal black or from the neon family. I've always had a fascination with colors and shiney things. My favorite combo is cherry red and baby blue.

 

For myself, I am partial to jeans, t-shirts and sandals. I dislike wearing black t-shirts as I am extremely sensitive to heat, but I do wear mostly "cool" colours such as blues, greens, and whites. Although if the occasion demands it, I would be just as happy to wear a proper suit. On the same note, do any INTJ like wearing suits? (Possible grammatical error in the second sentence).

 

Speaking of sensitivity to heat, I'm quite sun sensitive and cover up more compared to most people. Would love to wear a crisp suit with a pencil skirt, but never have the opportunity!

 

I wear more or less the same thing everyday: skinny jeans & a tee (sometimes graphic, sometimes plain). Short denim shorts when hot. Sneakers or flat shoes or cute ankle boots with a small heel. Little jewelry/makeup. Example showing the general idea:

I'm both casual with clothes and a bit lazy with them (dislike shopping) so when it's time to go out with friends, I still basically wear the same thing, I just wear a dressier top (like a one shoulder) with my same skinny jeans or wear a nice jacket over my usual casual tee. I'll wear heels only if the situation calls for it. I like my bags/clutches to be high quality but understated:

I do a similar lazy trick in winter. I'll wear the same jeans but with a nice belt (which matches my bag) and then stuff the front of my boring thicker sweater in there so I don't look like a potato sack. With my thinner more fitted sweater (I only own two) I add a skinny belt around my waist on the outside of my sweater -- in my mind I'm now dressed up (lol). I'm more likely to wear boots than sneakers during winter which helps.

If I'm in the mood to dress up for a party (and dance), I'll drop my moth color routine and put on something vibrant (and wear heels). Bright pink and yellow hues are my go-to fun summer colors:

If I'm ever sick of jeans/shorts (happens more frequently in summer) and in the mood to wear a 'day dress' (or romper) instead, it's still usually white/ivory or black or grey or brown or (not bright) blue. I especially enjoy wearing white/ivory. I also like wearing gold/bronze/silver metallic colors (I see them as neutral if dull and not overdone). I really like it when day dresses have pockets (as this one does) -- so sensible

Even a 'date dress' will typically be a neutral color and jewelry & makeup stays light (although I'll wear a little eyeliner out at night). The only thing I do differently is take extra care with my hair and wear something that shows my curves (without being too skin revealing). Basically this idea:

I don't own that much clothing. I try to only buy what I really like and will get a lot of use out of over time. I don't enjoy the shopping aspect or owning lots of stuff generally. Not buying much is also a way of balancing the financial aspect with my preference for very high quality.

I never mentioned atheletic wear, which I wear a lot. For me that falls into two categories, one is general exercise clothes. I wear black leggings (bought five identical pairs from my favorite brand) and cropped/knotted tees a lot. I often wear short runners shorts (dolphin cut) at home as well as when exercising in summer. The other thing that happens in summer is I get sick of wearing clothes.

In the height of summer it's not unusual for me to only wear a bodysuit or a one piece swimsuit with a little flounced mini skirt over the top for easy on/off around the water. That feels pretty normal since the second exercise category for me is ballet and, at ballet school, I must wear a leotard which is basically the same as a bodysuit/swimsuit and I wear skirts over the top to and from there.

So consequently I have quite a number of leotards/bodysuits/swimsuits and pretty skirts in my closet (probably as much as all my other clothes combined, especially when you add in other ballet stuff like tights, leg warmers etc). Since my bodysuits etc tend to be black or white I have a wider variety of colors (and lengths) in my skirts including pink, peach, green, brighter blues (in addition to the usual colors).

 

depends on the season
I have 17 100% silk Hawaiian shirts
cotton white shorts , flip flops for summer
colder months , jeans/flannel shirts

 

Suits. Black, navy blue or charcoal grey. At my most formal I'll make it a three-piece. At my most casual I'll wear some chinos, a shirt and blazer. All dark colours.

EDIT: And formal shoes, suede, leather etc. Brogues.
Trainers are for when I exercise.

 

I almost wanted to make jokes about usualy INTJs having avatars in thematically very formal clothing (like godfather based ones) while mostly wearing T-shirts and casual stuff.

Nice to see someone living up to the image he portrays.

 

I prefer darker colors and definitely something that avoid drawing attention.

I have a practical approach. I hate sweating so I'll choose my clothes to avoid that more than anything else.

My cold threshold is several degrees lower than that of most people so I may be the only one wearing shorts and a t-shirt. On such days everybody looks at me like I'm crazy, but I don't care - I'm used to it
During sunny summer day I avoid black, dark blue and red. Experiments show these are the colors that absorb heat the most.
I rarely wear shirts (especially with long sleeves), because collars make me sweat.

When it gets too cold, I put a sweater (possibly also a jacket) and switch to jeans.

For footwear, I prefer sandals in the summer, sneakers the rest of the year. And no, I don't wear sandals with socks. In winter snow may force me to wear some kind of boots, but in general I avoid them because they are too heavy and warm me too much.

 

If I could get away with it, I would dress up as a jockey every day with a nice blouse, comfortable pants and boots.

Most of my wardrobe centers around my shoes: cool sneakers, boots or flats every once in a while. I own five or six pairs of pants, all kinds of shirts and blouses and various jackets. I'm pretty sure all the clothing I own can fit into one suitcase. There are staple necklaces I wear and sometimes rings, never ostentatious.

I'm not afraid of color but I do prefer soft colors (pastels and acid washes) over bold jewel tones. Basically, ultimate comfort, clean lines and as little layers as possible without being flashy.

My fashion literate friend said I dress like Rooney Mara without the heels.

 

There are staple necklaces I wear and sometimes rings, never ostentatious..

Same here with the jewelry. Never big or loud. Small rings in the ears, same rings on fingers... My sister is the opposite - giant dangling turquoise earrings (they could be small sculptures), elaborate beads everywhere. I'm petite, so that kind of jewelry makes it look like I'm playing "dress up".

 

I'm changing my dress-code right now.

I used to dress very practical/neutral - jeans+t-shirt/shirt/sweater+ trainers. Long black coat + heeled boots during winter. It's effortless. Paradoxically, I think, I stood out with minimalism compared to girls around me, yet it wasn't something that would put me in a spot light so... GOOD.

I like to buy better quality/different looking accessories ( I prefer to pay more for shoes or bags/backpacks but I'll use them for years and they suit my "look"). I like jewellery but I don't wear it. I forget + too much effort. I do have a few pieces though, they're rather delicate but again- somehow unusual because it must have caught my attention to buy it.
(oh, and can I say how I hate ladies who wear trillion of bracelets and rings for a flight? And that usually they're the most phlegmatic people I've seen?)

I'm trying to make it more "unique" now. Because I'm bored and why not try something different before I die. It's still rather plain, neutral as I don't like flashy things (also... who THE FFFFFFFF.... came up with current trends?), I won't buy something that will be out of fashion the next month. I've started to love midi/maxi skirts, wide leg trousers (high rise, I only wear high rise bottoms), vibrant colours etc. It's safe, but not usual. Somehow. Not here, where I live at least.

I also love boho, if I liked to spend money on clothes and stand out-> FreePeople here I come, my love. Luckily they have no stores in my country because I'm too lazy and too poor.

I suspect that in 10 years or so, I'll be more elegant, wear heels and dress like I'm straight out of 40s/50s. Nothing grotesque though, just classic and elegant.

Funny, when I looked for an example of a day dress for my post, I took a quick look at Freepeople bc they always have something cute. I liked the white dress I used for an example so much I bought it in black as well as the white.

I see myself the same way. My favorite 'work dress':

 

I always wear black

 

 

I wear black, grey, blue, and dark red colours usually. T-shirts and jeans / casual pants. Shirts are almost always v-necks because I hate collars pressing on my throat. I am very sensitive to heat and suffer heat exhaustion almost every summer, so during that time I am almost always in tank tops and shorts. I wear tennis shoes or flat boots. I like tailored suits, long coats and hoodies when weather is cold. The only jewellery I like is rings. 1-2 tops. Indoors I wear house shoes or sandals that I never go outside in.

 

I personally like buttoned-up shirts and jeans. For the most part, I love wearing aloha shirts because it reminds me of Hawaii roud:.

 

Unscientifically, I swear the words "black" and "dark" have been used in like 60% of the posts on this thread. I imagine if this subforum met together it would look like a funeral procession.

I have a couple things that are black, and like the color - but if it's black, I'm wearing it more to make a statement than because I like darker colors. I like a clean, sharp black and usually something long sleeved rather than a t-shirt.

Casually, I more often have to choose either a put together, more traditional look or a looser and more relaxed one. It's usually a function of how I feel that day. When I'm feeling more serious and restrained, I'll put on a Polo oxford (of which I have probably over 15 different colors, ranging from neutrals to pastels) and maybe some chinos, chino shorts, or dress jeans - most of which double as choices for business casual (sans the jeans). When I'm more sloppy or relaxed, I like a good western shirt, sports shirt, denim shirt, or maybe a polo. I have a few t-shirts that I collect when I travel and wear around the house, but they're really pushing "casual" to a limit for me.

Athletic stuff is pretty basic (Nike, Adidas, favorite sports teams stuff, etc).

Someone asked about suits - I do like dressing up. For suits I stick with neutral colors, but think the fit (slim) is really important and, when I can afford it, have the suits tailored (it's 100% worth it). Aside from a few exceptions, I stick with white or blue shirts and rely on the ties for color (though a red tie is still my favorite). If I know the people I'm dealing with well, I sometimes mix in more playful ties or louder colors. There is a bow tie in my closet I have yet to wear, out of utter superstition that the day I feel douchey enough to put it on something bad will happen. But someday, it's going on.

Things I don't like: turtlenecks, sweaters, sweater vests, sweatpants, anything argyle, urban/streetwear, t-shirts (especially those with sarcastic and/or nonsensical words or phrases), the hipster look (beards, lumberjack shirts, dumb glasses), black on pale skin, anything "critter" (with animals or animate objects embroidered all over the place), big gaudy logos, things that match but match badly (such as, purple shirt with yellow logo, with yellow pants), baggy or boxy suits, short sleeved hipster button downs that button the top button, men's shirts that have flowers on them, knit hats, and many others.
