  1.  1

    Fashion mags: Which kinds do you read?

    • I actually opt to get fashion ideas from my favorite store catalogs and websites -- once I find a brand I like, I stick to it.
    • Unless a magazine slips in some style pages between new recipes and home-organizing tips, I can go months without knowing what's hot.
    • The question is more, which don't I read? I even check style blogs and celebrity gossip sites to get new ideas.
    • I don't read fashion magazines. They just make me feel bad about myself.
  2.  2

    Which celebrities' style do you find inspiring?

    • Um, everyday mom here. No way can you put me next to a celebrity.
    • Flashy, fun fashionistas like Sarah Jessica Parker or Heidi Klum.
    • Rosie O'Donnell
    • Polished, preppy types like Marcia Cross -- her character on Desperate Housewives and real life -- or Jennifer Aniston
  3.  3

    Taking time for a manicure -- either professional or DIY -- is more than just a luxury. It also helps keep your nails and hands healthy and looking their best. How often do you treat yourself?

    • It's part of my regular routine. I don't need any excuse to do my nails.
    • I brush a coat of clear polish over my nails every week, to keep them from chipping, and always keep a tube of lotion in my purse.
    • Usually when I have my hair done, about every six weeks.
    • My kids colored in my nails with their markers last month. Does that count?
  4.  4

    When's the last time you really loved your look?

    • My wedding day
    • Generally, I'm pretty happy with how I pull myself together but I have to say I felt really great wearing my favorite little black dress to a special dinner last month.
    • At a wedding I attended a few months ago -- I took some time on my makeup and dressed to impress. I felt like a different person
    • Everyone has off days but, honestly, this morning I couldn't help but do a double-take -- I look good.
  5.  5

    Able to go from carpool to cocktails in the blink of an eye, a good pair of jeans are a must-have for any on-the-go mom. What are yours like?

    • Just a pair of men's Levi's -- the same ones I've been wearing for the past few years.
    • Lowe-rise boot cuts.
    • Dark and straight-leg, with a little stretch. They look more expensive than they actually were.
    • Light-wash, high-waist, tapered leg … I know, I know: They're "Mom jeans"
  6.  6

    How often do you shop to update your wardrobe?

    • I don't know, maybe twice a year?

    • A fitted and sequined jacket
    • A sequined jean jacket

    • A classic black dress, of course, cut just above the knees
    • A loose, mid-calf floral print dress left over from my last pregnancy.
  9.  9

    The right jewelry, scarves, belts and other accessories can make even the simplest outfits dazzle. What do you do to accent?

    • I'll change my necklace every once in a while.
    • Do diaper bags and lunch boxes count as "accessories"?
    • I wear the same rings every day, but change necklaces and earrings all the time

    • I wash my face with whatever soap is in the shower.
  11. 11

    • I usually just use Chapstick.
    • Powder, eye shadow, lipstick
    • Concealer, tinted moisturizer, eyeliner, mascara, lip gloss
    • Concealer, powder, mascara, blush, lipstick
  14. 14

    Your favorite celebrity steps out in an amazing purple cashmere sweater with dramatic sleeves. Of course, it costs more than $1,000. You:

    • Can't wait to get something similar. You know of at least three affordable fashion lines that make a near look-alike top.
    • Invest in the color, not the style, with a gorgeous yet affordable purple scarf that will endure long after the sweater is out of style
    • Sigh as I shrug on my hooded sweatshirt yet again. Such things aren't for mere mortals.
    • Wonder why she insists on being such a show-off.

    • In a ponytail.
    • Under a cap or bandanna.

    • The addition of statement details like oversized metallic buttons or luxe stitching and embroidery to classics like trench coats, cardigans, and trousers.
    • So many, but I love seeing so many outfits that mix up styles -- leather bomber jackets with preppy plaid skirts, or boho flowy tops with tailored slacks
    • Trends? I'm lucky if I match.
    • That elastic waistbands aren't just for toddlers anymore
  17. 17

    Drop the kids off at school, run to the grocery store, pick up prescriptions at the pharmacy, take the kids to soccer practice -- it's just another day in your ever-hectic life. What are you wearing?

    • Jeans, a fitted tee, and a light goose-down parka
    • Gray trousers and a pin-striped Oxford shirt
    • Khakis and an oversized college sweatshirt
  18. 18

    Think about your shoe collection: What are your favorites?

    • Not fair: I can't possibly choose between my delicate summer sandals and my amazing fall boots. Or my snazzy flats and sexy pumps.
    • I like stylish, comfortable footwear: classic ballet flats or preppy slip-on loafers.
    • I wish Crocs made snow boots.
    • Unless I have a special event to go to, you can't get me out of my white tennis shoes. They go with everything, right?
  19. 19

    The typical style question your friends ask you is:

    • "Can you zip me?"

    • "How does this look on me?"
