Take the ultimate personality test… the Myers-Briggs test and tell us what your personality type is!
I honestly believe that this test is accurate and tells you a lot about yourself!

I love fashion, but I'm not able to dress the way I truly want to because I'm pretty overweight and the clothes I like and want to wear a) I'm not comfortable in and b) just don't look right on me. I'm in the process of losing the weight, but I won't be able to dress the way I want until I've lost it all. I know there are big girls who have a great style and can dress well, but I just can't. I'm wondering if there are any others out there who can't dress the way they really want to because of their size or any other reason...
I'm with you ladies and the legs thing, though. The size of my legs does not match my super petite upper body. To give you an idea, I wear a size xs to small up top, but can't even find boots to fit my calves! I can't wear everything I want, but I'm pretty happy with the styles and things I've found that make me love my legs! I focus on playing up the things I like, like my long neck, slender shoulders and (strangely) slim ankles.

I might be the only one that might think this but, Have u ever wonder how high school life would have been diff, if u went back dressing the way u dress today, compared to how u dressed when u were attending High School?
I was in an all girls high school and all we could wear was our uniform! I agree with LittleBee though that I'd try and do my hair and makeup more. My hairstyle was the same everyday!

What is the best way to move on from a relashionship you thought one day could last forever?
I'm still in love and can't forget, after 2 years without seeing the guy!
I'm proud of you :) It is too hard to move on if you are still following on fb and seeing what is going on in their lives.

I just turned 30 yesterday. I don't see it as a big deal but a lot of my friends are having a hard time with it. If your over 30 did you have trouble with the Bday or is it just a number to you? Did you make any conscious changes to your style?
I won't be 30 for a few years yet, as I'm 25 now. But I don't see how you should be forced to change your style just because of your age. It really shouldn't matter. My sister wears animal eared hats at 21, and I know a few other adults who do as well. A relative of mine is is over 40 and wears ripped jeans, looks great on her. My opinion is if it suits you and you like it, wear whatever style you want. ^_^
This is an awesome example of people dressing however they want fearlessly- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKAR3HsrNsQ#t=76

I'm personally not big on New Year's Resolutions, but I've decided this year to try to do better saving for a house. Are you making a New Year's Resolution? If so what is it? Do you think you'll be able to stick to it?
I don't make Resolutions, but this time, for 2014, I'll just always think that everyday is a chance for me to do better and this year would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Besides frat parties and social clubs, are there good online dating sites out there? Is it worth trying online dating sites like Okcupid, Tinder, Date My School?
OkCupid is so much fun, honestly. But I think it's true that you should totally get out of your comfort zone in college and try and meet people at parties, in organizations, and even out at local bars near your school! However, once that's run dry ...definitely give those sites a shot.
I'm all for it because I've met some cool guys on there and you never know! A friend of mine is in a serious relationship with someone from Tinder. :)

So, I’m thinking to save printing & transport costs that the magazine that I want to get started should begin online. How many of you read online magazines or e-zines? How often do you read them? Would that change if you could contribute to an e-zine? Also, is there a site out there that hosts grassroots e-zines for cheap (or free)? How should I get started on my electronic magazine?
I think an online magazine would be a great idea. Depending on what was in the magazine, and if i liked it, yes I would probably contribute.

Im turning 18 in January and even though its months ahead i like to prepare and budget in advance. I was wondering if anyone had any cool ides for what I should do? My birthday fallson a Wednsday but i was just thinking of celebrating it the weekend after. I don’t want anything like a “party, party” but rather a small group of friends doing something memorable and fun! I was thinking like a 2 day event where one day we have a scavenger hunt(a list of things to do and we split into teams), dinner at a nice resteraunt, sleep over my house that night then the next day go out for brunch, and hit the town for a girls day or just go to the movies. I was considering things such as :
- the season (my birthday is during winter and very cold so limits the things we can do)
-transportation (i was considering a limo for a couple of hours but if not should they drive everywhere or ride in my parents truck all together?)
-Cute DIY Invitations (something very unique that’ll make them want to cancel all their plans and come)
If anyone is a great party planner and has any ideas please let me know!
Or just say what you did for your 18th birthday?
Have you ever thought that anyone will feel bored of the same monotonous routine of cutting birthday cakes on the birthday parties? Why not use some hilarious 18th birthday party ideas that can help throwing prank for the birthday boy

I’m seeing teeny boppers wearing cat eye eyeliners and lipstick. I find this kind of funny because my friends and I didn’t start wearing makeup until college. Maybe I’m not used to this yet. What age do you think girls should start thinking about wearing makeup?
I know that some North American teens (boys and girls) from public schools start experimenting with makeup around 13-14, the average age for early puberty. It has been like this for decades, especially during my parents’ generations.
I think makeup shouldn’t be a “required thing” for people to wear in general, unless it’s for theatre, filming, or cosmetics retail. Personally for me, I love makeup— because I enjoy playing with colors and expressing myself. If another person doesn’t want to wear makeup, she shouldn’t be forced to wear them.
I think it boils down to an individual; skin and health should also be considered too. I think it’s fine if a 14-year-old goth girl or boy wants to experiment with makeup, but I think s/he just needs to check with the dermatologist first. Like, limiting foundations for special occasion or just sticking with eye-wear.
Anywhere under middle school is a bit too young.

My apartment does not come with central heating. :( This means I have to use space heaters when I’m at home and this results in higher PG&E bills during cold months. I really need tips on how I can keep my apartment warmer without using the heater too much. Is this even possible?
Make sure your blinds or curtains are open on sunny days! My mom leaves her’s open on sunny days during winter and it heats their entire house! Also, have parties! Nothing like friends (and lots of warm bodies) to make you feel warm and cozy, haha

Before it all finally ends for you is there something you want to accomplish with your life if so what is it? If you could live forever would you? What do you think happens when we die? What sounds scarier an eternity of suffering or everything you are just fading away to nothingness?
I want to be able to travel the world with my family and create a wonderful home that we’re always excited to come home to.

New member here so be nice :)
I recently bought my first pair of footy pajamas and it game me an idea and wanted to get others thoughts on it. So footy pajamas are just like really loose tights, which made me think even more. Does anyone wear tights to bed? I started thinking about it and it seemed really really practical! You woudnt have to worry about loosing a sock in bed, some people hate pajama pants bunching up and it would keep you really warm! Im going to try it tonight and see how it goes. Wish me luck :)
I feel like I’ve tried it before, probably when I was little. They’re kind of constricting and you run the risk of getting a hole in the middle of the night so I probably wouldn’t wear them to bed.

I never understood why people seem to love fame? At least for me, it doesn’t seem all that great. You can’t go on a date or go anywhere without people bothering you. Imagine you’re having a realluy bad day and freaking cameras are going off in your face! and anytime you get together with someone to break up or do something stupid, its all over the tabloids and internet. People are always criticizing you and you can read tons of insults about yourself online. If you wear an outfit, people will always judge it and bash it if they don’t like it. Yeah you have fans but do you think they seriously care? most likely after a couple years you won’t mean anything to them and your psoter gets replaced by the next rising star. No matter how many fans you have, they can’t replace having a small group of people of geniunely care about you.
It just doesn’t seem worth it to me xD
I think you raised a really good question. In my opinion, there are pros and cons of being famous. But, if someone chooses something just to be famous then that person is gonna suffer a great deal. You have to love what you do and only then you can enjoy your life. I wouldn’t mind to be recognized by millions of people for what I do as long as I can grow.

I do not really like where I live, i like in Houston,& there seems to never be something to do especially since I live in the suburbs. I always try to go downtown so i can fill the hole in my heart that NYC belongs in since i was born there but it doesnt do much.
So do you love your city.? If so why? whats there to do?
if not, why?& where do you think you belong?
I live in Austin, and I’m not much of a fan. I’m used to public transport and I hate driving, so all the traffic jams and lack of parking really drive me insane. Going out is ok, but there is no club scene and dancing venues are super limited. There’s nowhere to walk to, like the only food within a mile is crappy convenience store food and taco carts. Also, the summers are awful! It does have some good things, like really hipstery coffeeshops and bars, good food, and a really good music scene, so I suppose it’s not too terrible.
I really want to move outside the US, maybe Montreal, or back to Moscow. Or Tokyo or Hong Kong!

for chictopia – that is..
so you’ll konw, im only 14 and i don’t live exactly in the metro.. but sort of.. :)
i do think there’s a certain age bracket to limit me from being fashionable and from being in chictopia, but i am very shy and uncomfortable of showing myself, especially when it comes to fashion..people stares at me like: “she too young for that” and all, and i get really conscious cause i feel like im being someone that’s inappropriate for my age..
and im thinking of quitting chictopia! which, i dont really want to do. i love chictopia. but i guess i need more time to think,
i need you advice
please help me..
check out my ChicBlog
and my BLOG
thank you so much .xoxo
No! Don’t quit Chictopia! Chictopia has a wonderful and supportive community so there’s nothing you should feel self conscious about. I’ve seen very young bloggers upload to Chictopia and I admire them for being so fashionable at such an early age. There isn’t an age limit for being fashionable. Have you seen Alexander Wang’s niece ? Years from now people will look back and say “remember that girl? She’s always been so fashionable since she was very young. She’s so cool”.

For me growing up, it has always been easier for me to communicate with males more than females. I guess it’s because they’re more nonchalant about things.
What gender do you tend to communicate and associate more with?
It’s easier to talk to females for me. I have tons of guy friends, but sometimes I just don’t understand the way they think.

How often is it that people deal with having a degree to support other people’s wants?.
You mean like going to college just because your parents want you to? I’ve learned that education will take you far in life. It may tough finishing a degree when you don’t feel like it, but trust me, it will be useful for you one day. Hang in there..

What would you do if your significant other offered you money to get implants or other cosmetic surgery? Would you consider it or just be really offended?
I’m with lovemarta. If it was something I needed and had expressed concern about, like a mommy makeover after having all my kids, sure! But it he just randomly said, "Hey Babe, can I offer you a nose job?” that would offend me.
There’s a difference between suggesting an unnecessary improvement, as opposed to fixing something out of your control (like when kids come out of your body and then deflate your breasts!) :/

I used to use irfanview but then I started using picnik. It does a lot of cool editing things but I like the clarity of a lot of peoples photos. They look professional and mine don’t. So what do you use, what do you think is the best, and what do you think is the worst?
I took a photoshop class with cs4 but I just couldn’t figure out how to make it benefit my pics. And its super expensive! like 400 with a student discount "/
Pixlr! For those who are too poor to afford Photoshop. ;D

lately i have the feeling that i did all the wrong choices,regarding my job,my career,my friends,the guy i had and lost ..like everything is WRONG…and life its finally showing the check.i guess is just a feeling,did you feel the same sometimes?
Even if you have made bad choices, you are no different than anyone else.
It is not always easy to know what the right thing to do even is. We don’t always know for sure what will result of our actions. We cannot know, that is not how life is given to us.
If people didn’t mess up a lot then there would be no need for all these organizations that offer “solutions” to people’s problems.
The good news is you really do learn from mistakes. You learn what NOT to do. That and as you get older (over 30), people pretty much quit pestering you about how you should live.

what age do you think is acceptable for girls to
start wearing heels as an every-day type of thing?
i’m sixteen, and although some of my friends wear
heels everyday, i feel like it’s a bit too much for highschoolers.
i would wear heels once in a while, but when i see
some girls at school wearing 6inch heels, i get an
impression that they’re trying to hard. and is it just me
that finds that when you wear heels, you attract more
eyes towards you? i guess that’s another reason
why i try to stay away from them.
I think you’re a little too young to wear heels so high, for example I’m 17 and I hate wearing high heels. I think it’s unnecessary and way too much.
