Identifying the starlet of your style story is the first step in expressing yourself through fashion! Luckily, you don’t have to limit yourself to just one little box. Whether these style personas describe you to a tee, or you find yourself identifying with several of them, embrace your personal style and let CAbi help you tell your style story …

artsy2Artsy Bohemian

After an introspective morning writing prose over a soy latte, the artsy bohemian is off to hit up as many antique shops and flea markets as she can before open mic night at the coffee house. She loves treasure hunting for one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect her eccentric individuality and creating unexpected combinations that exude a style completely her own. Of course, the day wouldn’t be complete without a sketchbook stashed in her vintage satchel … who knows when inspiration will strike?!


classic2Classic Chic

Classical music dances through the foyer as the classic chic gracefully assumes her role as hostess of the ladies luncheon and warmly welcomes her guests. Every detail has been addressed and reflects her flawless taste. From her sophisticated wardrobe to her refined home décor, the classic chic gal embraces clean lines, crisp tailoring, and a perfectly polished finish. Classic never means boring, and her chic sophistication is anything but a snooze. Whether she’s dressed up or down, she’s the picture of elegance, and “classic” never goes out of style.


urban2Urban Hipster

Wherever she is, it’s the place to be! Her iPhone rings off the hook - first, dinner at the impossible-to-get-reservations new restaurant, then an art show for the next up-and-coming artist. Through it all, the urban hipster’s fashion forward wardrobe paints a fabulous picture of downtown street style meets uptown chic. She’s edgy, but never over the edge; always hip to the next big thing before it hits the mainstream radar, whether it’s art, music, fashion, or techie gadgets. As she breezes past the line at all the hotspots in town, she turns heads and gets people thinking about fashion in a whole new way.


professional2Professional Posh

Taking the term “power suit” to a whole new level, the professional posh makes a statement of strength and confidence in whatever she happens to be wearing. When she talks, everyone’s listening (and taking notes!). From an early morning business meeting, to a power lunch with clients, and then drinks with friends to celebrate landing that new account, her style reflects her perfectly poised self-assurance. She’s structured and professional, but not afraid to let her hair down and enjoy all she’s accomplished!


adventure2Up for Adventure

The up for adventure gal is easy to pick out of a group. She radiates a positive, optimistic air, and people just seem to gravitate towards her! When she wakes up in the morning, the day is a blank canvas of possibility, and her carefree style is conducive to her anything-can-happen attitude. Making friends wherever she goes, her day may start with a hike in the mountains, but when she meets a few European travelers on holiday, she turns tour guide through the city, and ends up on a camping adventure at the beach. Old tickets and mementos fill her messenger bag, which is always stocked with her iPhone GPS, journal, and, of course, a camera to capture each day’s exciting new journey.





How to Wear: The Café Pant

CAbi’s Café Pant is femmed up menswear at its finest, drawing inspiration from the boys but perfectly tailored to fit the ladies! Shades of green, blue, and brown come together to form a tiny houndstooth plaid that pairs back to a range of solid colors, and even textured prints. They look equally hip worn polished and professional, or funked up with an artistic flair. The right way to wear them is your way! A funky heel will lengthen your legs and add a feminine touch, but a chic oxford flat or penny loafer will add an urban cool vibe to a more classic or conservative look.

Transform Your Basics

What a difference a topper makes! Whether it’s a vest, a sweater, a coat, or a shrug, all it takes is one statement piece to transform a basic white top and jeans into standout expression of your personal style. Walk right out of the basic zone when you pair it with a shoe that really speaks to you. Remember: you’re the star of your style story, so pick out something you love and rock it!

Does anyone know the brand name of the tall brown boots in the winter/fall cabi catalog? Please post in the canary, if you have brand or where to find them! Thanks, girls!

More about alterations... I fall between on the length of some of my CAbi jeans. While it's not too expensive have to have them professionally hemmed, if you've got a sewing machine it is truly easy to hem them yourself while maintaining that great original CAbi hem. Just look up 'hemming jeans with original hem' on the internet for many easy to follow videos. I'll never take mine to a professional again!

I am soooo the artsy with a heavy dose of urban too! Love that the canary gives such great combo ideas. A nice addition would be a cross reference catalog of sorts to allow us to look up pieces from past and present by name to see new and different ways to wear it with all the suggested accessories and shoes!

I love how CAbi mixes and matches from season to season. The new Plum Pleated Tee is darling with the plaid Show Stopper Skirt from Fall '08, and the Damask Printed Sweater (also Fall '08) compliments the new Cafe Pant. CAbi makes it so easy to get dressed.
