<p>A new fashion theory is taking over TikTok and Instagram, and no, it&rsquo;s not about buying more &mdash; it&rsquo;s about balancing better. Enter the 7 (or sometimes 8) Point Outfit System: a style guideline that assigns a value to every element you wear. Tops? 1 point. Bottoms? 1 point. Dresses? That&rsquo;s 2. Accessories like belts, jewelry, hats, sunglasses and shoes? Each one adds another point. The goal? Hit 7 to 8 points total for a look that feels intentional and stylish &mdash; not too much, not too little.</p>

<p>Just like the perfect espresso shot: bold, balanced, and not watered down. There&rsquo;s no official designer doctrine behind it, but that&rsquo;s the beauty of it &mdash; it&rsquo;s rooted in real-life, trial-and-error fashion wisdom. And it&rsquo;s giving. Think of it as a modern-day extension of Coco Chanel&rsquo;s iconic rule: &ldquo;Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.&rdquo; So yes, if you're debating whether to wear that extra chunky necklace on top of your statement belt for your summer dinner outing&hellip; maybe take one thing off at the door.</p>

<p>The trend has racked up millions of views, but when we traced it back, we discovered something even more interesting: fashion and lifestyle influencer Marissa Fair actually posted about this system nearly two years ago &mdash; 97 weeks ago, to be exact. The original idea may have started quietly, but it's just now snowballing into a full-blown style revolution.</p>
