Being a fashion queen is not only about the clothes you wear and the wardrobe you accumulate but also, your designer knowledge. A real fashionista will know her Manolo Blahnik pumps from her Stuart Weitzmans and a Fendi bag from a Louis Vuitton any day of the week. She will especially be able to tell what's a knock off!
It's now February and all you fashion queens out there are probably avoiding your bank statements at all costs after blowing your budget on Christmas and New Year's outfits and oh wait.....allll those boxing day sales that just couldn't be resisted. The downside to having champagne taste is the price tag that comes along with it but for those of you who are true fashion queens, the sacrifice is worth the feeling of walking out in that head-to-toe designer look that will have everyone talking.
Some people embrace the idea of fast fashion. Buying from chain retailers who copy the runway looks for a fraction of the price and are therefore able to buy 10 times the amount of clothing, you just don't see the value in having a closet full of non branded items when you could have a closet that looks like a hand picked stylist's dream.
No matter what kind of fashionista you are, only true fashion queens will be able to name these designer out of the crowd. What are you waiting for? Take the quiz and find out if you can walk around proudly with this badge of honour.
