Dear mam,
As given in kotler,

Brand personality is the specific mix of human traits that may be attributed to a particular brand.
5 traits are mentioned. these are
1. Sincerity
2. Excitement
3. competence
4. Sophistication
5. Ruggedness

Brand image is Perception and believe of customer(consumers) about a particular brand.

In my opinion both the term are heavily interrelated, brand image is the initial stage, it comes from the consistent good performance of the brand. While a brand, performing very good over a long period of time gains not only a good brand image but a brand personality also.
Like philips. people prefer philips bulbs over surya and they are ready to pay premium to consume it. why? i guess because of the brand image philips have. now if anybody can correlate the performance of the brand with human traits then the brand has a personality...i think its always a matter of discussion.

i think my example is not clear enough to cater your need... let welcome others' view also to have a better understanding...
thank you very much to rise this interesting topic in this open arena.

Regards,
Sharodindu
