The title of your memoir would be:So what was my result? "Effortlessly Cool" which they describe as the following:
Status Update: I’m Done with My Memoir.
Cats Get Nine Lives, Why Can’t I?
✓ Parlez-Vous les Eléménts de Style?
Let it Be: The Journey of My Life.
If you were going to get a new dog, what would his name be and why?
✓ Eraser, because his presence will make daily annoyances go away.
Miró, after my favorite artist.
I wouldn’t get a dog, thank you very much.
Old Man—and he’d probably be a stray.
Your favorite color is:
✓ Navy.
Hot pink.
Thunderstorm gray with a hint of gunmetal.
Give me a floral over a solid any day.
Your closet brims with well-chosen pieces that go the distance, and your style is just as inspirationally timeless. You'll love our RAIL STRAIGHT JEANS because they're a universally flattering instant favorite - you'll want to wear them for years. "LOL! I agree with the first sentence, but not the second. I dislike rail straight jeans for me! I think they are nice, but not flattering at all for my pear-shape frame. ;)
Incidentally, Madewell is offering free shipping & free returns on their denim. The offer is automatically applied at checkout. Wait, there is even more! Madewell is also offering free shipping on orders of $100+ with promo code WEEKEND. This offer expires 6/22/10.
Did you enter the sweepstakes? If so, what is your Madewell style? Do you agree with the results? :)
Again with the "effortlessly"! If I take the quiz I suspect the answer will be "Too old to shop here."
ReplyDeleteWhile I have not been to a Madewell store I did take the quiz and enter. It was fun:)and accurate for my style!
ReplyDeleteEffortlessly this and effortlessly that, j.crew/madewell. Reminds me of one of the all-time most unique obits, when, upon the death of Diana Mitford, the Daily Telegraph described her as an "unrepentant Nazi and effortlessly charming."
ReplyDeleteI don't see the purpose of madewell. Granted I'm probably not their target audience, but if it's supposed to appeal to the younger set, the prices are ridiculous. Just seems like a mickey project that is draining j.crew.
My result was: UNDERSTATED GLAM
ReplyDeleteYour keen eye and cool aesthetic define your elegantly edgy style. And when it comes to denim you're all about simple and sleek, so try a pair of our SKINNY ANKLE JEANS - they're super-slim and perfectly streamlined.
Must've been my color choice: Thunderstorm gray with a hint of gunmetal.
I did enter the contest, of course I want a gift card and discount, I just placed a hefty order yesterday! :)
ReplyDelete@LBH: ROTFLMAO! (OT fun fact: the Elvis Costello song "Less Than Zero" is about her and her husband)
ReplyDeleteLikewise, I'm not their target customer, but given the prices I don't understand the niche that Madewell is supposed to fill.
I must not be their target audience either. I've never seen anything there that even mildly interested me, so I guess there's no point in entering the contest.
ReplyDeleteI got the same thing as you:
ReplyDeleteEFFORTLESSLY COOL
Your closet brims with well-chosen pieces that go the distance, and your style is just as inspirationally timeless. You'll love our RAIL STRAIGHT JEANS because they're a universally flattering instant favorite - you'll want to wear them for years.
I'm not a target customer either...it all is a little boring for me.
me neither on the target market but the rail straight jeans seem narrow yet more classic and not as tight as JC toothpicks and certainly not the bizarre things called jeggings!! (guess I am an antique) so with free shipping I will give them a go. weee... wish me luck.
