You might have noticed that we write a lot of first-person stories here at Who What Wear. We write about how certain personal qualities-including our height, our age, our hair type, and even our zodiac sign-influence what we buy. But there's one personality trait that defines me more than anything else: my introversion. It doesn't just affect my job or my social calendar-it has an impact on my wardrobe.
No, I'm not here to play into clichés that all introverts only wear beige, and all extroverts wear zebra and hot pink. It's a lot more nuanced than that (although for certain people, that can definitely ring true). I tapped six of my fellow editors-a total mix of self-observers and outgoing folks-and got some insightful answers.
For instance, our introverted assistant editor Anna LaPlaca actually chooses attention-grabbing pieces because they can do something she's not comfortable doing herself. "For someone like me, who isn't as comfortable initiating conversation (especially with strangers), I'm all for a fashion item that can break the ice," she says.
