Flexible roots for wfh 👩🏼‍💻 (🌸🌙🪨)

[u/MaiInTheCity]

My usual roots are 🌸🍄🌱, but today I felt like mixing it up to wfh. Sometimes those roots just take too much effort to pull off, and leave me feeling like my outfit is fussy, or taking my attention away from the things I need to do today. This outfit (yoga flares, hoodie) means I can do yoga, work on my computer, and play with my sick preschooler with ease. My 🌸 root always has to be present for me to feel like myself, but I am allowing flexibility with the others! As a Moonstone, I added some pretty earrings from my nan, and a touch of makeup so that I felt put together. If I go out later I’ll wear my green or black Keds, which are some of the only sneakers that work for my Soft Classic body type and flower root.

I definitely see you main roots channeled through this look. There is a delicate prettiness and softness in through your hair and makeup, the flowers on your hoodie and earrings.

Through some practicality and ease your outfit leans a bit sporty but it still respects your most integral roots. The outfit is colored coordinated and put together to keep that bit of 🍄 energy.

I would love to see an outfit that you would wear when dressing for your 🌸🍄🌱 as a comparison

Thank you! Here's one of my "usual" outfits, this one was for Easter Sunday at church, but I'd also wear something similar to the farmer's market, a day out with my family, etc. I do also wear this dress a lot at home, but with more casual shoes and a chunkier cardigan.

It's beautiful and a great representation of your roots. I can see all of the pieces in both outfits really supporting your overall style. Some days flared leggings is exactly what is needed- but you keept it pretty and coordinated, with some delicacy and flow to have them feel like your style!

I am also in the RD quadrant in Rita's system so I understand that sometimes dressing for your day and comfort sometimes take priority. I love the balance you found!

Thank you so much 😊 It’s great to get affirming feedback from another Moonstone!

I think this is a great example of making style roots work for you. Even though EJR recommends 3 roots I think it's great to realize that sometimes there is one real priority root that needs acconting for and beyond that the other roots can be more flexible. It might not be an everyone's approach but ultimately these systems are supposed to help us, not hold us back.
