Saved by Amora
On finding unique things in unexpected places, and wearing them until they collect stories.
What makes an outfit memorable is almost always the details. Anyone can put on a white tee and jeans, but how you style it is what earns the double take—the second glance that turns a uniform into a look. And Amora Aniba is the person you want when you’re trying to get those details right.
What drew me to her was the eye she has for the small ways you can make an outfit your own: a stack of pinky rings, a slim watch worn like jewellery, an anklet peeking out above your flats. It’s exactly the kind of inspiration I find myself reaching for. Amora calls herself a stylist, curator and writer, and all three show up in her saves—nothing is there by accident, everything has a reason. Working through them on Woven has been as useful as it is genuinely fun for me, given how often I find myself in a styling rut.
How would you describe your taste?
I feel like this has always been sort of a hard question for me lol, but right now I definitely think my taste leans more simple and classic! I’m very into the uniform and repetition of it all, and wearing the heck out of my favorite pieces. I’m also very inspired by 90s dressing (even like the way people dressed to the airport those days, so good). I’m very into secondhand hand sourcing and just the feeling of finding unique midi skirts, dusters, jewelry, etc. (Ebay, TRR, Poshmark). I also heavily believe in a great pair of rigid denim and a slim watch.
Talk me through one of your edits. What’s in it and why?
I recently put together “An East Coast Summer” edit for an article I just put out. The edit started as me trying to define what an “East Coast Summer” feels like beyond the usual moodboard clichés. For me, it’s less about dressing for a specific place and more about dressing for a season that revolves around repetition. A canvas tote that’s carried every day. A great pair of jeans. A swimsuit that lives permanently in your bag. A slim watch you’ve worn for years. Boat shoes that are a little beat up. The pieces start collecting stories by the end of the summer. I pulled together a mix of classic East Coast references like navy swimwear, Polo, canvas totes, tortoiseshell sunglasses, leather sandals, and simple cotton basics, but I also wanted it to feel personal. The vintage watch, shell jewelry, rigid denim, and colorful knitwear all reflect the things I find myself gravitating toward regardless of trends. I think the edit is really about building a wardrobe that feels effortless and lived in. The kind where you can throw on almost anything and it works because every piece has earned its place.

What’s something you stumbled onto in the app that you’d never have found otherwise — a brand, a person, a save/item that sent you down a hole?
I found this “Gold Tension Bangle” by the brand Dunton Ellerkamp. It’s a minimal gold-toned wire bangle adorned with a mix of organic charms: smooth river stones wrapped in silver-toned bands, shell-inspired pendants, and a dark pearl-like bead. Super beautiful and unique! I don’t think I would have ever casually stumbled upon this any other way.
Favourite save so far?
Ooouu, I’d say my favorite save right now are these brick red Madewell Linen pull on pants I discovered this week. I’ve been slowly trying to add color into my wardrobe (obviously, this being the perfect season to do so). I imagine it paired with a simple white tee or tank and a leather flip flop, and obviously a watch!
Best brand (or item) you’ve found through someone else’s saves?
On the same wave of brick red, I discovered this halter, low v-neck summer dress by Dissh. It’s so simple yet interesting, and it’ll be perfect for a wedding I’ll be attending soon!
You can see everything Amora’s saved on her Woven.
Saved by is a recurring series where people whose taste I trust walk me through what they’re saving on Woven, an app for saving inspiration and discovering what people with taste you trust are saving too.
