which fashionista are you?

While perusing the Grazia 'Fashion Issue' on Monday I spent a good deal of time on this quiz they had early on in the magazine that was supposed to ascertain which 'fashion brand' you were. The questions were varied and the answers very different, although sometimes it was hard to think of an answer that you would actually want, and not one that you were putting simply because you had to answer (e.g who would play you in the movie of your life? scar johansen, audrey tautou, emily watson or beyonce? umm... i would love to say scarjo or audrey, but unfortunately both are way too beautiful and not enough asian...). In the end i got Burberry mixed in with a dash of Prada, meaning that i was at once hopelessly eclectic and on trend as well as timelessly classic. Not so sure how that works out. 

I thought i would try and make you my own quiz, ascertaining which fashionista you are, that is, rising it girls of the moment (5 of them) all corresponding to a different kind of style. Had way too much fun writing this by the way, and neglected important things in life, like... oh.. sleep. and uni assignments. Who cares, i want to be all 5, wouldn't that be marvellous to have a little of each girl mixed in together? Can't wait to see who you all get, go forth and question!
