How good a stylist are you? - Quiz

Not only did I get everything wrong, I actively disagree with most of the choices. Plus it's hard to tell what size anything is, and the answers are inconsistent - sometimes match, sometimes contrast...

Interesting exercise for sure, if only to prove I march to my own drum for better or worse!

My menswear vibe was off! I'm too casual!
I think I already knew that.

I disagreed on a number of them. For the green velvet dress, the shiny pump they picked was my last choice.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!

That canvas purse of theirs, it looked shiny to me. I don't think I should be dinged for bad photos. And the lace shirt didn't look lacey to me. But I have to say, I really actively disagreed with a lot. Esp. the metallic monochrome look. Why wear jewelry if it disappears against your clothing?

I mostly scored correctly, except for jewelry. My issue was that I wasn't told what the goal was of the final item. So I just went on color and texture.

I did pretty well actually, but I was thinking thorough "how do they want me to think here" , thinking in terms of bookending and keeping a cohesive vibe to the outfit. And actually, I do work to keeping my own outfits cohesive (ALGO isn't my friend) so it wasn't hard to ;pick the one they were looking for.
I agree though, that the textures were hard to tell. I would have never known that lace blouse was lace, and actually disagreed most with that one... the earrings were too close of a match to the print of the blouse. I would have gone with something more contrasting.

I just did it! I scored a 1575, which is pretty low I think. Now I know why I frequently find the InStyle style boring--they tend to *match* accessories with outfits, rather than doing the whole juxtaposition thing (e.g., that early example of adding the "delicate, ladylike" watch to the ladylike ensemble, vs. the class men's watch which would look so much better from my POV :). After awhile, I started trying to think like them, and that helped a bit with my score.
