Oman Fashion: How much of a fashionista are you?

What if there were a quiz for you to find out just how fashionable you were? We've got one for you right here...

Take a quick look at your nails (hands and feet). How do you describe them?

(A) Good you asked. I love showing off my mani-pedi.
(B) No polish on but perfectly shaped. I like to let my nails breathe and they still look great.
(C) It’s a little chipped on the sides and I could use another coat...but I still love the colour so I decided to keep it on.
(D) Let’s look at flowers instead, shall we?

How do you usually prefer your hair?

(A) Styled by a professional of course.
(B) Depends on the occasion. I can do multiple styles on my own and I like trying new looks.
(C) Down, bun or ponytail. What else options do we have?
(D) Wild and free. My hair has a mind of its own.

You have a party over the weekend. When do you start planning your wardrobe?

(A) The minute I receive the invitation; and that better be a week in advance.
(B) Once I get home and have time. There is no rush and I know I have some decent stuff I haven’t worn before.
(C) The evening of the party. I had stuff to do, c’mon!
(D) Grab something nice and get ready in the car. Besides my best friend would loan me something if I turned up looking disastrous.

You’ve been cleaning and realise you have to rush out to get something from the neighbourhood store. You are bound to run into people you know. You...

(A) Rush out and get something from the neighbourhood store (humming – ‘you’re amazing just the way you are’).
(B) Grab a pretty scarf to drape or a nice jacket on top of your home clothes and run.
(C) Change into something fresh, spray on some perfume and get going.
(D) Ditch the idea. You refuse to be seen in public in anything less than pure perfection (and that would take a while).

When considering shopping, you opt for:

(A) All designer stuff, of course.
(B) Only brands which are well-known for quality products.
(C) Anything that looks amazing on me...I don’t care so much for brands.
(D) I dislike shopping; but if I must...whatever that’s easiest to reach out for.

What is your take on advising people on fashion?

(A) The world has bigger problems. Seriously?
(B) I could advice. But then my friends usually just go ahead and do their thing. (I wonder why they even ask.)
(C) I love talking fashion. I help my friends pick up stuff. It’s fun.
(D) I charge...or my fashion advice remains a secret.

How much makeup do you wear on an average day to work?

(A) Everything in the makeup bag. Primer, foundation, compact, blush, lip-liner, lipstick, mascara, eyeliner ...and oh yeah ...a little gloss for the finishing touch.
(B) Being presentable is the key to success. So I ensure I’ve got the basics right.
(C) Powder. It’s a tradition. That counts, right?
(D) I’ve brushed my teeth. My hair is sporting the roll-out-of-bed style. Problem?

You are one of the bridesmaids at your best friend’s wedding. What would be your level of patience at the beauty salon?

(A) I could be here all day and tomorrow. It is therapeutic.
(B) I’ll be forced to work my schedule so I don’t have to particularly hurry them; but I’m willing to take out that time.
(C) Makeup or hair? Pick one.
(D) Skip it totally. My best friend loves me.

Do you work out/follow healthy eating?

(A) No. Let’s move on.
(B) I go for a walk whenever I think I’ve overeaten.
(C) Yes, 3-4 times of intensive workout per week and a healthy diet.
(D) It’s my religion. My diet allows me a single cheat day a month.

(A) Why, just why do you even try?

Results: What Level of Fashionista are You?

0 - 16: Hello, tomboy, you’ve already accepted that you couldn’t care-a-less for style and fashion. You are comfortable with staying as far away as possible when it comes to following fashion trends(let alone sporting them). Your female friends, at desperate times, might urge you to consider giving your personal styling a little more importance, for the sake of society at least; but you believe beauty is what comes from inside.

17 - 22: We can say you are easy-going, fuss-free and sport a very raw attitude that might actually make you fun to be around as you’d probably pay more attention to bigger things than dressing yourself. You don’t have any regrets on your sense of style and neither do you judge others by it. However, you shouldn’t sulk when you don’t make it to the list of fashionistas or the photographer focuses on you more stylish friends.

23 - 28: You are quite fashionable but what makes you different is that you aren’t rigid. You think it is alright to let go sometimes and be in your element. You definitely know your dos from your don’ts when it comes to styling, but might not always stick to it. Of course, you understand the seriousness of style and try to follow trends.

29 -34: Not only are you very fashionable but also quite balanced. Style is something that comes from within and you can sport it effortlessly. You place a great deal of importance on your personal styling needs but also know when to draw the line. Your unique sense of style is pretty popular and loved by all.You often are more than willingly playing the role of a fashion guru.

35 -40: You are, by all means, extremely style-conscious and you ensure that you maintain a very high-level of supremacy when it comes to your style. Your confidence, knowledge, and devotion to maintaining a flawless style makes you a trendsetter. Though you are on many occasions perceived to be a little bit of a narcissist, it is purely your devotion to the fashion world and demands of the industry that make you who you are. Your sense of style is more than often admired and applauded. You make your presence felt with your elite sense of style.
