Shabby and Chic?

So, I have been thinking alot this week about "shabby chic" as it is called these days, I'm not sure about it really, I would welcome opinions on it...

Is it "Girly and Flowery"?



Is it "Vintage Style"?
Is "Shabby Chic" also "Country Home"?
Is "Shabby Chic" also"French Country Style"?


Is it "French Blue"?
Is there a definitive answer or is "Shabby Chic" whatever you want it to be?
