Style quiz

I found this quiz over at AnneK's Website, and thought it looked kind of fun and interesting. It's not too difficult at all, you get to look at lots of pretty decor pictures, and then they tell you about what "style" you are. My results were pretty much right on the money:

Your personal style is a mix of 3 specific styles:

Rustic Revival

You can take kid out of the country but you can't take the country out of the kid... or is your theme "you can take the kid out of the city, but you can't take the city out of the kid?".

Either way you play it, you are one of the unique individuals who loves a mix of modern and country. The clean lines of the modern softened by rustic/vintage elements is the perfect mix in your mind. And can we blame you? You've taken the best aspects of two popular designs and mixed them in a manner that appeals to young and old alike. A subtle background of white or light colors provides a nice canvas for all the wonderful flea market, eBay, or garage sale finds as well as the classic modern pieces that you love.

Cottage Chic

Who says that cottages can't be modern and chic? Who says that they have to be floral and cheesy? Not you!

You love the carefree spirit that the cottage interior inspires, but you are also serious about your appreciation for modern art and hip treasures. You love old and new alike, and love to highlight them all to expose the uniqueness of each. What better way to show off these treasures than with a light background?

French Eclectic

Parlez-vous français? Even if the answer is no, you can confidently say your home does! French Eclectic somehow manages to be both formal and casual, classy and unassuming at the same time. You like your spaces to feel inviting from the moment you (or your guest) opens the front door and this feeling should continue even after you've entered your most formal room.

Even though there are French antiques here and gold details there, the rustic country elements provide a balance and warmth that seems to say, "come in, relax and stay a while." Your love of antiques leads you to flea markets, garage sales and hours of eBay hunting.


You can go take the quiz yourself over at Sproost.com

Oh, and take it a few times - they vary the images, so you can see more pretty rooms!

Does it seem like Rustic Revival and Vintage Modern are pretty similar?

I'm 40% Hollywood Couture, 40% French eclectic, and 20% Nantucket Style. I'm kind of surprised. I would have guessed the French but not the others. I'll have to take it again. It was fun!

What can I say, I love me some wood. Too bad there wasn't a dorm room style option as I seem to lean that way.

Very cool! They sure have a lot of different style categories! I like how the ones for you are similar but not identical--like different sides of the same person!
