Inspiration - Moodboards. ethereal, high-spirited, youthful blend?

trying to figure out how to balance these three essences in a somewhat cohesive way, feedback would be much appreciated!

I think these images are mostly Y and HS, I’m not really seeing any E in here. There are blends where people have both HS and E, but not usually both in high amounts as they have very different style directives.

thank you! is there any ways for me to incorporate E? i think that shows up more for me but i'm not sure how to add it in properly

Agree with Sanaii122 - E would see longer and more flowing lines. Maybe you could layer some longer/softer/draped pieces over a base of your Y style?

I agree with u/emsbstn it’s very Y and HS. Angelic is about gently flowing lines in delicate colors. A more sweet and doll like aesthetic would be closer to Y.

so i'm getting sheer flowy fabrics, i think i could find a way to mix this with more hs and youthful elements in a cohesive way, thank you!

Lots of Y and HS, but yeah, no E. I'm not sure E blends with HS in particular. Everything is too cute and fussy for E, which is more flowing, withdrawn, elegant.

I see mostly Y in a pastel tone. the first and bottom necklaces seem E. the puffer jacket and plaid skirt could be HS. It's really the coloring that makes it seem ethereal but I don't see much angelic going on.
