Have you ever been in a friend group where everyone has such different approaches to personal style, but when you all get together to snap a photo, you look like a cohesive unit? Well, that's my current situation for right now, and I'm loving it.

I have an obsessive personality, so as I pondered over our simultaneously conflicting and complementary wardrobes, I thought, Why not break things down? After getting my friends to confess what they think their personal style is, I gave them each a name, and we're running with it. Now, it's your turn to get involved. I'm giving this a "choose your fighter" theme. Scroll down below to explore my friends' personal styles and shop whichever one resonates with you the most.

"My mood dictates my style, which is often chaotic. I rotate between different personas from a romantic heroine to the classic edgy New York City vibe. But at the end of the day, having an effortless wardrobe is crucial to me. I'm always running around the city and like to be comfortable plus carry pieces that are easy to put together." — Renata D'Agrella

"I'm not afraid to stand out. I love a good basic but am always down to try new trends. I take risks with my style, and I let how I'm feeling dictate my look." — Grace Joshua

"I'd describe my style as 'old meets new.' The majority of my wardrobe is vintage, which I love because I'm able to incorporate unique/one-of-a-kind pieces into my looks—whether it's an '80s blazer or a funky vest. I usually go for bold colors and heavy layering in my daily look. Summer for me is the most difficult season to style, but I'm really into over-accessorizing and low-rise at the moment!" — Levi Sebree

My style changes so much that even I find it hard to keep up. I first wanted to describe it as the '90s supermodel aesthetic with clean, strong staples guiding my way. But I also am always one of the first to try a new trend and am known for throwing together multiple bold pops of color. Whether you love or hate astrology, you have to admit that this duality in my wardrobe reflects my Gemini sun sign very well.

Associate Editor

Sierra Mayhew was always destined to work in fashion, but she didn't know it at first. Growing up with no choice but to wear a rotation of school uniforms and activewear, her love for fashion really blossomed when she moved away for college and was able to finally define her very own personal style. Shortly thereafter, she interned at Elle magazine and instantly knew that editorial was for her. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame, she worked for ShopBazaar, contributing regularly to Bazaar.com, and finally made her way to Who What Wear, where she is an associate editor. When she’s not working, you can catch her always trying to catch a flight, rollerblading through New York City traffic, or exploring the latest luxury vintage boutique.
