TOTALS: A's ______ B's ______ C's ______ D's______



What personality are you?

If you find that A's are predominant, then you may consider yourself a NATURAL, with a relaxed easy style, and unassuming manner. You generally have no interest in being a "clothes horse," nor do you care about standing out in a crowd. Your colors are natural and muted and your jewelry is never flashy.

If you count more B's than other letters, then you have a CLASSIC fashion personality. Your ideal is understated elegance. You generally prefer neutral, basic colors, but you occasionally don pastels or brights if they have a classic, timeless cut. Your jewelry is chic and simple, your makeup polished, but light.

If you chose more of the C's you are considered a fashion ROMANTIC. You are alluring and feminine and prefer shades associated with the Venusians gender, such as pinks, plums, and lavenders. Your clothing has a soft flowing line. Your jewelry is delicate, sometimes antique in appearance.

If you have chosen more D's than other answers, then you are a true DRAMATIC, extremely bold in your style and personality. You can get away with strong clear colors and bold lines that would appear shocking on others, but are just right on you. Your jewelry can be large and quite noticeable and your makeup often follows the latest trends.
Fashion Personality Types


NATURAL
Think comfortable, yet chic, sporty and healthy with a relaxed easy style. Naturals never want to look overdone. You prefer natural fabrics that breathe (like cotton & denim). You never dress flashy and prefer smaller jewelry. Earthy designs; chunks of stone, bone and mother of pearl. (Ex. Meg Ryan, Helen Hunt … Gap, Land’s End)


CLASSIC
Think understated elegance-classic, tailored clothing. Your jewelry is chic and simple, never over or underdone. You enjoy time-honored quality and design. Classics wear streamlined clothing with simple lines, and love cashmere, wool, silk and linen. (Ex. Grace Kelly, Candice Bergen … Talbots, Ann Taylor)


ROMANTIC
Think feminine, floral, vintage & enchanting. You prefer floral, pastels, lace & ruffles. You love antique-looking jewelry, beading & pastel colors. You wear fabrics that move gracefully, and may have ribbon, lace or a bow for detail. (Ex. Jane Seymour, Nicole Kidman … Boutiques.)


DRAMATIC
Think bold and eye catching, in color, prints, and jewelry. You follow the latest trends in clothing, hairstyles, and make-up. You have many different shoes and handbags for matching outfits. (Ex. Joan Collins, Cher, Madonna, J Lo).
