Awww. You should have entered this for Chictopia10. :P I think Chictopia helps people develop their own personal style. It's fun to see the older outfit posts of bloggers and see how far they've come in terms of personal style.
awww thank you so much for reading my story! it really means alot to me. i wasn't sure what chic10 was hehe, i thought everyone just talked about why they loved chictopia so i was like hey, i'll do it too! :D and yes it is amazing to visit their older posts! (like mine..hahahaha) but thank you so much doll <3 xoxoxo
Awww, you didnt submit this for Chic10? I think style and fashion is so much better when people use what they've got to make something great out of it. All the celebrities have it easy because they can just point at something and they have it. It's people who make extraordinary looks that amaze me! Love the look! Great color on the dress! :)
omg awwwwwwwww thank ou SOO much for this. i wasn't sure what chic10 was, but i did see lots of people saying why they loved chitopia, so i just decided to do it anyways. :)) thank you so much for the sweet comment doll. it really means alot to me. xoxoxoxoxo!!

Thirty-two pounds? WOW way to go, honey! But, please, don't be concerned about that. YOu are most certainly not "BLUBBER" as you call it, but beautifully curvy! I think you are gorgeous, and the fact that you are a REAL PERSON with a REAL BEAUTY is what's important to me. I want all my models to be themselves... not what the world wants them to be. Love you, sweetheart!
thank you for reading my story baby doll!! and i would TOTALLY model for you, omgggg i get sooo excited just thinking about that!! hopefully i'll lose all of this blubber by then and actually be 'model size' tehe! i'm working on it..and i've already lost 32lbs! whoop whoop! :D haha but yes yes yes yes yes times a million i would!!

Great story! Very inspiring. I totally know what you mean my family doesn't have much money after. And I feel bad when I look at my closet because I feel like I have too many clothes but I buy all my clothes for so cheap and most of my things are thrifted! I love shopping on a budget. And btw I love love love the greeen! AMAZING!
thank you SO much for taking the time to read my story darling, and that's how i feel too!! my closet's like CRAMMED but i buy my clothes for 5.00 and under! xoxoxoxo <3 thank you again love!
such a beautiful story :) so inspiring! really! I love how you use what you have instead of having MANY things! I also like using what I have and mixing it and this site has been such a great place for inspiration! I feel better about myself now and not having to buy brand clothes... and I love your style since I became part of this community :)
thank you SOOO MUCH for taking the time to read baby doll, and i LOVE having non name brand clothes too!! it makes me feel unique because people are like 'omg, you cant be serious..you really got that for 1.98!?' i love it so much. thank you for the sweet comment my love. love you! <3 xoxoxo
love the dress and leggings, great shoes and necklace too! this si such an amazing story.you are so young and i would never have thought you had a heart problem. my best friend has heart problems as well, but i can't even imagine what it's like to deal with that. not only is your mother a strong woman, but you are strong as well. this just shows the power chictopia has to build confidence.
You're welcome hun and btw i am new to thrifting but i love it. I always buy things on sale. I also like to take things that I own and revamp them :)
thank you SO SO SO much for taking the time to read love. your comment actually choked me up while i was reading it. i will pray for your friend, because having something like this is not something anyone would ever want. but there are people out there a LOT worse than i am, i am so blessed that i have legs to walk, eyes to see, lungs to to breathe. thank you so much again love. xoxoxo
thank you soo much for taking the time to read! i usually blab alot lol :) xoxo!
What do you mean about bad hair! Gorgeous ringleeeets and the colour i adore, your post is really hearttouching:) Amazing outfit as per usual!:) I absolutly love your glasses! :)
thank you doll!! and for that sweet message hun. i sent one back but i'm not sure if it sent or not :(. xoxoxo!!
I love your necklace. Elephants are my favourite! You're so pretty, by the way.
awwwwwww thank you sooo much!! xoxoxo, and elephants are WAY my favorite too!! hehe. i like owls and kangaroos too, but i'm having a hard time finding them at any thrifts :(

horrible horrible bad hair day. ick.
why i love chictopia? PSHH how about why WOULDN’T i love chictopia?! lol. anyways here’s my chictopia story.
Around July of 09 I had sunken into a deep hole of depression. While everyone around me was growing into adults and just living life to the fullest… mine was falling apart. I was diagnosed with a rare heart disease that limits me from doing every day normal activities. If i stand longer than an hour..i’ll pass out..go into cardiac arrest..and die. My mom struggled with my health bills..and she did everything she could to help us survive. She pawned everything she owned..sold anything she could..and even started selling the clothes off her back. Just to help pay for what i needed done. That’s when i started to become a recluse. i never left my house..stopped taking pictures..just completely withdrew from the world. All i had was the internet..and my hubby. So one day while i was browsing through google on ‘cute outfits’ i happened to notice a LOT of the searches were from this place called ‘Chictopia’. I decided to check it out..and i instantly fell in love with the website. So many different types of people, from all around the world, LOVE FASHION like i do! i wanted to make my own account..but i was kind of skeptical. i thought ‘no one on this site would ever like me…i don’t have tons of money to buy clothes..everything i have in my closet probably adds up to about $100.00’ but i decided to give it a try anyways. so the first photo i uploaded..i had 20 comments in about an hour. i was completely shocked. they loved my hair..my style..everything! i searched through the style gallery and found out that half of the girls in there thrift for almost all of their clothing too!! i began adding people and commenting like crazy, and now chictopia is my addiction. each day i HAVE to post something new, or i will just not be satisfied with myself. i love chictopia because it gives me the feeling that fashion has no limits..and neither do i. I can express myself in whatever way i want to, whenever i want to.. and everyone loves me for it. the sweet comments and lovely girls here are what makes me smile. Every night i can hardly wait to wake up the next day to scrounge around my closet (or my mom’s hehe) and run outside and take photos. So this is for you Chictopia. Thank you, and all of the wonderful people on here for grabbing me out of the darkness..and throwing me into the spot light. Thank you for helping me to learn to love myself..just the way i am.
<3
