RESULTS::::::::::::
If you got mostly a's you are a "non-shopper":
you are not effected by or interested in shopping, which is okay because some people just aren't. but you should think about why you are depriving yourself of the joys of shopping and outfitting. is it because you are really on a budget or is it because you don't know enough about fashion to feel confident putting great outfits together? jeans and a t-shirt as a staple is not a bad thing, but adding accessories and layering pieces will only help you enjoy the way you look. if you need help putting outfits together, ask someone at your favorite store. if it's a matter of self esteem, try buying something different and colorful and watch how many compliments you get.
if you got mostly b's you are a "shop-a-fuckin-holic":
you're a shopaholic and you knew that before you even took this quiz. though you are a true shopper in the sense that you always buy what looks good on you and are in endless search of sales, you need to look at why you spend so much time and money on looking good. is it just the clothing you love? or the attention? think about putting the millions of things you already have in your closet together in new combinations and then you'll be flexing your creativity AND saving money.
if you got mostly c's you are a "trend whore":
you love to shop and always seem to have your nose in the latest vogue or in style. most people would say your style is really great. however, it seems as though you go with whatever the magazines or expensive shops are telling you to wear. there isn't a lot of personal style intergrated in your wardrobe and that's a problem. being a carbon copy of magazines and celebrities is boring and strips you of your own identity. next time you see something "not so in" that you like, buy it. it's time you started listening to what YOU want.
