This thread is very interesting to me, perhaps because my experience is so different. My T dresses professionally, always looks put together and certainly has her own sense of style, but I would not call her "stylish." Rather, it's always my T pointing out my clothes and telling me that she likes my sense of style. She'll also point to my purse or shoes and say something like "where did you get them" and then she'll have no idea when I tell her the brand (and she'll often mispronounce the brand, once I tell her). In fact, I mentioned once before about having a dream where I gave my T a makeover. I cannot tell you how much I wish I really could do my T's hair, make-up, and clothes. My T always looks nice and I do appreciate her sense of style because it's hers-- but I think she could look super cute if she let me use some of my make-up, hair, and clothing tricks on her. Her style is very plain and natural-- I'm a little more dressy and fashionable. I'm not suggesting that my way is "better"-- I would simply enjoy glamming her up for a day. (And yes, I told her this, and she laughed and said that she'd probably love the makeover I would give her. However, we both know that it's not appropriate for a client to play "dress up T").
