I like the word Noir for you I think urban can be implied in noir?

Your style seems to be evolving at a pace that's more rapid than average. Until the pace slows a bit I'm not sure about monikers. This is my fancy excuse for not coming up with one because I'm really bad at it!

I see a softer side coming out. Maybe, Soft Warrior Princess?

I kind of like the Euro Noir label because that seems to capture that Bond Girl image in my mind--Burberry trench on the outside, but a strong suggestion of danger on the inside. That juxtaposition seems to combine an approachable, ladylike image on the outside with a gritty power and confidence on inside. You play nice with the Bond girls and they'll be nice back to you, but watch out when you mistakenly take them for granted. In my mind, Bond girls are not Princesses, but, maybe, they are what happens to a Princess when she gets comfortable with power and has the confidence to go against the big boys?

Fantastic outfit and I like the way your stye is turning a bit more refined, a little less rugged.

Hmmm. Sleek Urban Secret Agent: SUSA

All you need is an "N" and you'll have MY name, baby!

How about Sleek Urban Secret Agent NOW.

Agree with Gaylene....Bond girls aren't Princesses.

Euro, urban, prince?

Euro for the more modern classic/refined.
Urban for the noir/UWP elements
Prince for the booties/boots/androgynous part.

Haven't read all the responses - sorry if this has been said.

Ooh, I am eating up all the suggestions! Thank you, ladies! You all are have definitely sold me on the noir descriptor.

Cathy is right, though: urban noir is redundant. Ain't no pastoral noir that I've ever heard of. I guess that means that urban secret agent is also redundant. Hmmm... thanks for pointing this out; I only want to add words that add something to the picture.

Gaylene, I love your description! I am totally fine with the fact that Bond Girls are not princesses, since my imaginary persona wants to be a 00 in her own right.

... But, but, but Noir has a dark assasin, criminal connotation I don't think blends with this. A secret agent is a sleek, smooth operative!

Rae I am not very good with descriptors but I am enjoying the thread and the suggestions. Sleek Secret Agent is cool! I am thinking Roz Myers from Spooks:) But at any rate, whatever you call it, your style is evolving beautifully and I love it. There is definitely a new sophistication and a see a strong signature look developing.

Mm. You know, I don't think urban noir is redundant. Noir can take one on country drives, past roadside cafes, to little farmhouse hideouts. The little placid interlude before you find out how fatal the femme fatale is...

"Film noir encompasses a range of plots: the central figure may be a private eye (The Big Sleep), a plainclothes policeman (The Big Heat), an aging boxer (The Set-Up), a hapless grifter (Night and the City), a law-abiding citizen lured into a life of crime (Gun Crazy), or simply a victim of circumstance (D.O.A.)".

D'oh! Zap has a point. Although I do love the dark vibe of noir and films like Bladerunner for my style, I'm not sure if "hapless grifter" is the only thing I want on my mind.

00NoirPrincess? 00 = sleek, competent, no-nonsense, spy-like. Noir = dark, brooding, penchant for trenches and neutrals and gritty color. Princess = bright color, bling, softness, drape, luxury. o_0

No, I'm not seeing princess so much anymore either. You're evolving into more sophisticated territory. I can definitely relate! I need to always temper my rock'n'roll impulses with a dose of sophistication, often in the form of a classic piece or two.

How about Avenger, instead of Secret Agent. It's kind of like WP but more modern. Plus some of your other adjectives, like sleek, maybe urban?

Love the looks your posted in your update re: SAS. I see less tomboy, more Modern Mata Hari. There is a lot of elegance, without a trace of twee or two much effort.

I love Emma Peel. I have all the Avengers on tape... and need to get them all again on the computer... "Lethal Mod"

After years shackled in the shadows of Metropolis fighting the oppressive regime of Finance, the clouds break and a ray (Rae) of sunshine bathes our heroine in healing light. Feeling optimistic about the future she sheds her armour and heads down the highway into the unknown.

Or in other words, I don't know what your new persona should be but I do think you should include Metro/ Metropolitan as a reference for Urban and DC Comics.

Oh, man! That is goooood. I had been going with "00noir," but there is something about the comic reference that may apply, too (bright colors, bodycon, tall boots). Hmmmm...

Pretty late to this post but I like your descriptors for 00Noir Princess. I'm getting the Avengers Vibe too as in the 1960s TV series with you in the role of Emma Peel.
