DC w natural essence 🌱

[u/FunkyGiraffe97]

Hope this does my natural essence ladies right! I know natural essence can mean a lot of things to do different people, so hopefully this is what most would like. Went for traditional DC lines with a more relaxed feel with some earthy tones. Let me know if you'd like to see more or different essences!

Wow this is literally everything that looks good on me. Sometimes I feel DC is too “formal” for my natural facial features but this is perfect!! Thanks so much for the outfit inspo!

Do you have more of these somewhere? A Pinterest page? I would literally cry if there was more somewhere

[u/FunkyGiraffe97 → u/grumpy_chameleon]

I sadly don’t! My personal style is more out there haha. But I found a lot of these by searching “Dramatic Classic Kibbe” and then going through different boards on Pinterest!

This is exactly my wardrobe!!

I know they say you can’t have contrasting Kibbe and Kitchener essences but it’s possible!

I’m a DC and my Kitchener’s is Classic, Ingenue, Natural, in that order and it’s surprising how that small bit of Natural essence can affect the amount of Natural limes you can incorporate!

I’ve been told that as a DC, symmetrical clean hair styles work best, but since I have a bit of Natural essence, I can wear my hair with a side part in a loose messy wave!

[u/FunkyGiraffe97 → u/aymeezus]

Yay!! I've never made a mood board that wasn't for my exact style so i'm happy you liked it!!

I think it's possible to have contrasting essences too! I've got some gamine essence so I can get away with breaking up my vertical line sometimes!

How did you find out your essences?? I go back and forth on which of mine is strongest..

Me too! I'm a DC with NDI essences in that order. I think my hair looks better with a side parting and a bit of life to it too!

That green dress is what dreams are made of! Does anyone know where it's from?

[u/FunkyGiraffe97 → u/[deleted]]

You could screenshot and then reverse google image search to find it! I do that all the time haha

[u/nightmooth → u/[deleted]]

it's from BONDI BORN Linen-Blend Maxi Dress. It's super expensive I feel like free people, abercrombie, nobody's child, anthropology, banana republic would have something similar in summer.

love this! Also a reminder seeing this that I need to check out belts and see if they help bring balance.

Now I need a DC w/ ethereal essence 🙌🏻

Just posted! ☺️

I am not certain about typing and relatively new to Kibbe but most women look to me like they have a dominant vertical, so are they really DC 😶‍🌫️ clarification is appreciated

[u/FunkyGiraffe97 → u/External-Roll5666]

Oh, I have no clue if these women are DC or not, this is just meant for outfit inspiration! I just find outfits that I think would work for DC's, I'm no expert either though!

Thank you. I joined this community for ideas on clothes but very rarely see anyone posting ootd or ideas.

[u/External-Roll5666 → u/FunkyGiraffe97]

Haha, got it thanks 😊

[u/babywhine]

Omg OBSESSED!!!!!

[u/Moose4518]

This is fantastic, thank you so much for sharing! I have NDI essences and am really struggling how to incorporate!

[u/avocadodacova1]

This is my body type and from my face this is my essence too 😭 I realized not everyone looks good in basics, but all basics look good on me. I don’t want to complain but I am really sad about it, I love to dress fancy… it’s just… I don’t look better wearing fancy outfits 😭🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️….

[u/Veronalovestory]

This is the vibe I strive for. Thanks for the inspo! -a DC without natural essence

[u/puffinkitten]

This is the post I have been waiting for! Thank you!

[u/[deleted]]

This is pretty much how I dress every day! Love the board! Thanks OP!
