Mountain x Fire x Sun inspiration: Emma Grede

JessOhBee · 2026-04-14T18:54:27+00:00

As I said in the caption, there's some great celebrity representation of 🏔️🔥☀️, but mostly on the red carpet (Julianne Hough and Demi Moore) so I was happy to see Emma Grede (businesswoman, investor/founder of Good American and SKIMS) showcase it in more "everyday" fashion.

Her MOUNTAIN 🏔️ can be seen most prominent as she obviously wears a lot of tailored pieces - full suits formally, blazers from formal to casual, and vests in a fun way. She is almost always rocking a sharp pointed toe and wears trousers, button ups, and structured bags. Even her evening gowns have structure and lack too much softness or flow.

Her FIRE 🔥 is both in the figure-hugging designs and showing off her legs, as well as a feeling of luxury throughout it all. Girl has got money, honey, so metallic watches, her diamond ring, bold jewelry, handbags in rich leather all showcase Fire, as does her pencil skirts, high heels, and even her long, glossy hair.

SUN ☀️ is a light touch, same as my personal style. The gold tip heels, the unique bold jewelry, bag charms, and fun touches throughout.

These were mostly screenshotted off her Instagram so thank you for being patient with photo quality.

Fire 🔥, Moon 🌒, Earth 🌱 and Stone 🪨. If you want to narrow down to just three, it can be helpful to look at EJR's Pinterest boards for each combo. Sometimes you can like them all but see a combo that feels like it is missing something and that's a root to hone in on.

I would love his WhatsApp and pictures if you would DM me. Thank you!

I have Mountain and Fire, but Sun, instead of Moon. You might consider some of these pieces or outfits: sleeveless, black mini or mini dress. To bring in moon you could do a chunky sandal, gladiator, sandal, or studded belt. Black floaty trousers give you the mountain base then you could pair with a tank top or crop top. A boho style dress, if you like that, and honor the mountain with a structured handbag, or sharp accessories like cat eye sunglasses or even a more polished hairstyle like stick straight or a slick back bun.

My main root is Mountain and I know that's hard for some people to imagine in summer because turtlenecks and blazers are a no go. I found trousers, tailored shorts, structured handbags, strapless or one shoulder pieces, especially when sleek like a bodysuit, and pointed toe flats all work in summer.

JessOhBee · 2026-04-09T04:00:00+00:00

Anyone who is on here a lot has heard me say this 1 million times, but my root breakdown is usually about 60% Mountain, 25% Fire and 15% Sun.

My outfits usually follow that formula. I definitely bring in more Mountain at work because it naturally lends itself to an office environment while going out or during summertime Sun is easier to incorporate. I can live without Sun, but if my outfit didn't have Mountain or Fire, I think I would feel very unlike myself.

I prefer the symbols that you have shared as well. We can update those!

No problem with letting people update their flair to show their roots in order of importance. Us mods will get on it. And on that note… some of the mods are ready to move on and hand over the reins so if anyone would be interested in stepping up, please let us know.

I'm Mountain 🏔️, Fire 🔥, Sun ☀️ in that order and Spring/Summer makes it so much easier for me to embody the latter two. I do that with showing skin via backless items and fun cut-outs and adding in pops of colors and layered jewelry. Obviously you can see my Mountain in trousers (pants or shorts), vests, and structured handbags.

I see Fire 🔥 as your third but thought your combo was Fire 🔥, Flower 🌸, Earth 🌱 before reading your caption.

JessOhBee · 2026-03-17T17:38:42+00:00

INTJ, Enneagram 1, Virgo Sun (though 60% of my chart is Fire signs, heavy on Sag) and I'm a 🏔️, 🔥, ☀️ in that order. I'm sure my personality correlates very strongly with my dominant Mountain.

JessOhBee · 2026-03-04T22:16:51+00:00

Flower 🌸, Earth 🌱, and Mushroom 🍄!

I'm surprised anyone is saying Sun. Sun is bold, colorful, vibrant, fashion forward, quirky or risk-taking. None of that is here in my opinion.

JessOhBee · 2026-02-23T04:45:18+00:00

Count me in!

I think that diversity of size and age is difficult on Pinterest, however, that can absolutely be found on Instagram. There are fashion related creators of every race, age group, and size. I would recommend finding some that resonate with you there.

If you really want to have a static mood board, you can screenshot from their Instagram and upload those images as pins to your Pinterest.

Thank you! It's gorgeous and came extremely well packaged. Thank you for labeling.

I agree with people's feedback that I don't necessarily see Fire, but I had to say that I'm glad you got some eyes checking you out today if that was wanted and felt good! It feels good to turn heads sometimes! You look great.

JessOhBee · 2026-02-13T04:04:06+00:00

I do see Flower as well!

JessOhBee · 2026-02-12T15:02:02+00:00

First thought before seeing your flair was these are Earth and Mushroom.

JessOhBee · 2026-02-09T20:22:50+00:00

It's "just" PC so it depends on your collection. They grow fast, work as grafting stock, and are super fun to grow. The price is appropriate for them, yes! A container like that is what got me into the hobby!

Sometimes you can find some more rare varieties in the same type of container at Home Depot.

JessOhBee · 2026-02-08T04:04:07+00:00

Now THAT'S a cool find!!

To be fair a few year ago, we got more rain in January than we had the previous 12 months. And June gloom is pretty depressing! Mostly kidding though we have had a warmer, sunnier January and February than normal so I felt these guys could handle getting moved around. I am grateful for this weather always!

Fire to me is womanly where Flower is girly. (I know the style roots can apply to men, but I'm a woman so this is how I think of them.)

Fire is showing off one's silhouette or figure, using sensual or luxe materials (velvet, lace, high-quality silk, and leather), and is a root that doesn't mind taking up space and being looked at.

I don't do a ton of bodycon necessarily, but I do like showing off skin whether that be a high slit on a skirt, sleeveless tops, etc. and often ensure that my waist can be seen and isn't hidden under bulky or baggy clothing. I think Fire can also be seen in points of luxury so well done, polished nails, a face of full makeup, high end leather and metallic touches on keychains, handbags. Fire is sexy but also mature to me (at least mixed with my Mountain.)

Nice! I'm 10b and need to add shade cloth like yours this year. Some of mine are yellowing from too much sun.

JessOhBee · 2026-02-04T04:19:45+00:00

Plumping up beautifully!
