Especially when you think that your style is very distinct and recognisable, and yet you still needed the exercise to nail it down and make everything click into place!<br />Ha, just imagining you disintegrating circa the Wicked Witch!!! I think where I look drab in non-colourful clothes, you don't. They suit you and your look - dark works for you!<br /><br />Oooh, that is a good idea regarding a new name! I should definitely use those words to help make the new name be 'on brand'... I'll have a think! I need to find that perfect name - I've talked about it long enough - it's got to be out there, surely?!Maria - A Playful Stitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17811550069936710912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9596933579669628.post-14163176019219473632017-04-28T11:10:51.021+01:002017-04-28T11:10:51.021+01:00OH! p.s.

NOT THAT I'M TELLING YOU TO, but we've talked a lot about blog names over the years and I thought maybe <i>Bright Modern Playful</i> might be a nice segue ... ?

Well, no, I knew what I liked, but as you say, I was erratic and buying things that I like, but not things that were <i>me</i>. Since finding my 3 words everything just clicks now! It makes so much more sense. And I <b>love</b> your three words! They really are so you. I laughed when you mentioned you catching sight of yourself looking drab - I think I'd start to disintegrate circa the Wicked Witch if I wore bright colours ;) But that's just me. I totally appreciate colours on other people! Especially our Maria.

Just can't resist it!<br />I think you do have a distinctive style... but I'm not sure what the words would be - we need a perfect word which can encompass grey and stripy!!! ;) xxMaria - A Playful Stitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17811550069936710912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9596933579669628.post-74727243259956086822017-04-09T16:12:04.360+01:002017-04-09T16:12:04.360+01:00Thanks Amy - it's good to hear that everyone s...Thanks Amy - it's good to hear that everyone seems to agree with the words!Maria - A Playful Stitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17811550069936710912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9596933579669628.post-76689468536332268092017-04-09T16:11:19.093+01:002017-04-09T16:11:19.093+01:00Hi there!

I am such a scatter so apart from grey and stripes things just seem to change all the time for me.

I think those three words sum up your style very accurately, and I can see how it would be helpful to have those in the back of your mind when you're shopping, say, or decorating.
