As a girly girl, my biggest ick in Daminette fics, is when Marinette says or heavily implies (in a monologue, as exposition) somthing along the lines of:

"i dont weat pink anymore, because im more mature. now i use dark colors. i don't use pigtails bc they're childish"

Not saying she doesn't or can't use them, bc I do think Marinette is flexible w/ styles, and sometimes wearing more dark and subdued clothing is necessary. ESPECIALLY as a stylistic choice!!! If it's used that way, it's just *chef's kiss*

However, I have seen that is usually used as a way to convey that Marinette is more mature, bold, that she can stand for herself, etc. as if saying that if you wear feminine clothes, wearing pink, and wearing bright colors; then you are not mature, can't stand for yourself, bold, or like going through some stuff.

Yeah, people change styles, are influenced by whom they surround with, and don't just stay with (1) style; yet, it will not change who and how they are.

ULTIMATELY, Marinette is a girl who can stand for herself, is strong, fierce, stubborn, determined, and wears pink, and bright colors.
