Homework

As you've read through the different style personalities, did you find some that fit? My tastes fit with the Romantic and Classic, but I tend to dress Natural.

One style isn't better than another. It's all about what fits you best. But if you're fashionably challenged, this could be at the root of your problem: you love one style but you're dressing another, or mixing all of them, and most of what you wear just doesn't fit your personality.

Your Fashion 101 homework for this week is to create a collage on Polyvore.com similar to the ones above, featuring YOUR style personality! Polyvore is easy to use, and tons of fun! You will have to create an account to make the collages, but it's super easy and quick. Consider your style personality, what you would like it to be, and pick clothing and accessories accordingly. You have all week to complete it and post it on facebook. Have fun with this!

After you make your collage, share it on Scribbles From Emily's facebook page. You'll get 10 entries to this week's giveaway!
