I have a question for you...what kind of shopper are you? I read this in a great book I am reading (review coming soon) and I thought it was a wonderful way of getting to know what are our innermost motivations.
Here is the scenario:
Here is the scenario:
You walk into the store and you see a scarf or dress in multiple colors. Which color do you choose and why? You can choose based on 3 motivations:
- I choose because I love the color!
- I choose because this particular color looks good on me!
- I choose because this color is in season now and is really trendy!
My Answer: Personally I usually choose stuff that looks good on me. Overtime I happened to fall in love with these colors as well. I definitely love neutrals, deep royal colors like violets and emeralds, most shades of pinks, and black. I can't stand myself in yellows and anything too light like white or cream because I think it makes me look matronly and chubby chunk!
For me, no matter how much something is in trend, or no matter how much I love the color I always will default to what I think looks best on me physically. That's my innermost shopping motivation.
Now what kind of shopper are you? Here is how to do it:
- always link back to moi at: http://furiouslyfabmuslima.blogspot.com/
- Copy and paste the scenario and the options
- Give your answer and expwain!
- Tag 3 to 12 of your most favorite bloggers with the same scenario
- Don't forget to write out the rules so they know how to do it!
- Have fun with it!!! I just learned I am a boring old fart who has a hard time keeping up with trends haha!

ReplyDeleteI am so outdated!
Thank you so much for tagging me!!! I cant answer your question on my blog cause it has nothing to do with shopping... but will tag back to you in one of my posts.
As for the answer, I would pick 1) I choose because I love the colour... unless mom sees me wear it and yells at me for choosing something that doesn't look good on me - then she picks the colour... LOL - you know mom ;)
