These are like [business cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moo-paper-cards) only better as they aren't about work, they're about YOU or who you want to be. Now you can [customize one for yourself](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moimoi) really easily on the Style Card website with your own image on one side and text on the other with your choice of colours. Then for $59 plus S&H, you get a box of 80; the product makers say you want to keep this number small because they know you'll change!

She said â€œThere are so many people out there with jobs but want to be something or somebody [else].â€ Her awesome idea is a winner because style cards are essential when social networking without a computer - also known as dating. Forget the old pick-up lines - spark the interest of a potential date with your very own style card.
