“If you gave me stop-
motion videos for the Lego
Set my kid has right now, in
our living room, I would
love you for life.”
When my kid
Is starting to play with a new Lego Set
I want a
instructional videos for that specific Set
so I can
Take a guilt-free break, knowing and that my
kid is happy, engaged and productive

When I
login (daily) to Style Icon
I want to
see gorgeous, creative outfits made
from the latest designer fashions
so I can
stay on top of fashion trends in a fun
and relaxing way
The Fashion Consumer I love seeing what’s new,
going through my closet,
putting together outfits –
it’s the perfect way to
unwind after a long day
When I
give fashion feedback to others
I want to
know my feedback had an effect
so I can
feel useful, satisfied and happier
because I’m helping others be more
fashionable
The Armchair Stylist I LOVE the idea of rating my
friends outfits and telling them
how to dress better – I already do
that in real life
When I
Need to dress up for an important event
I want to
raid my friend’s closet and get her
feedback on my outfit
so I can
have her accessorize my look and help
me feel confident - just like in real life :-)
The Co-Creator Patti told me to put these shoes
and belt together with this outfit –
I would never think of that, but it
TOTALLY works.
