You must ensure that your code is very readable, clean and maintainable. That's what all programmers must do.
But you are talking about over styling (like that term better that girl-code) which serves nothing but the ego of its author.
I've seen many developers in the past so proud of their creation (you know, like in the restrooms ;)), they spent hours cleaning and polishing their code. Some of them were so meticulous than they ensured that the correct white spaces between members were respected.
It's too much.
I fight that kind of behavior counterproductive. In a professional context, you must be professional. You can get your satisfaction by writing clean, very readable and maintainable code and talking with happy users or colleagues.
