Indie or Eclectic ? And What's The Diff ?

Though I am not much for labeling my style, as it changes greatly from day to day ~ mood to mood, I was recently asked to describe my style in three words. It was easy til it came to Eclectic or Indie. Which am I ? I know the difference when I see it, but was hard pressed to choose one over the other.
So, as a good little fashion geek would do, I looked it up ;)
It seems there isn't huge differences, but more subtle ones.  For instance, I love my graphic Tees (indie) but also love shiny baubles as well (eclectic). Still confused? Me too :) So here's what I came up with.

INDIE :

It's more of an alternative style, which has become mainstream, thus making indie a tough trend to nail down.  Live underground concerts, authentic concert Tees, acoustic music ~ These are all common life-styles of an Indie fashion lover............

• THINK  "JUNO" OR WILLOW FROM BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER :)
• RINGER T'S, PLAID SHIRTS, CARDIGANS, SKINNY JEANS
• SHOES: VANS, FLATS, KEDS, though many of these trends are now mainstream, making them no longer true indie.
• "COSBY" SWEATERS, OVER-SIZED CARDI'S AND TEES.
•  THE OCCASIONAL CHUNKY SANDAL OR FLIP-FLOPS.
• VINYL OVER iPOD'S
• A TRUE "INDIE" WOULD NEVER SHOP AT "CHAIN STORES", except for basics.

ECLECTIC :

There's not much difference, though the definition of eclectic is "a mixed style" in the fine arts. An Indie style can easily be tweaked into Eclectic with more colorful , mix and match pieces, with vintage thrown into the mix as well.

• THINK :  SARAH JESSICA PARKER :)
• PLAID SHIRTS WITH FLORAL SKIRTS
• A VINTAGE BROOCH WITH A BASIC TEE.
• PUMPS AND HEELS
• TIGHTS WITH SOCKS
• BOLDER COLORS AND PATTERNS
• FUR COLLARS
• STUDDED BOOTS

STILL CONFUSED ?

ME TOO, HONESTLY .................

ECLECTIC SEEMS TO BE MERELY A BLEND OF BOTH WORLDS. Liking to mix different styles all in one.  I WOULD BE CONSIDERED A "POSER" IN TRUE INDIE CIRCLES ;)

I LOVE VINTAGE ACCESSORIES PAIRED WITH A DIY EMBELLISHED TEE PAIRED WITH COLORFUL FLORALS ...........................

This is my best attempt at Indie Style, though it turned Eclectic as soon as I added the shiny brooch and trendy sunnies. Now the boots and skirt are screaming Boho !

Maybe I should stick to taking pretty pictures ;)

( Plus, a true Indie girl would be way too cool to twirl :)
