Hi, my names Melanie.
I'm fifteen years old.
I love fashion, hanging out with my friends,
and drawing and writing along with a bunch of other stuff.
I used to have an old account here that was quite known for awhile,
but I sort of just lost touch with it,
so I decided to make a new one.
I'll try and help you the best I can,
just hopefully I didn't lose touch with my good advice, haha.
And feel free to IM me with your problem too.
I also put my myspace in a link down below,
if you ever want to add me & talk.
But incase you don't see it or something, it's:

www.myspace.com/datflychick_203 feel free to send me a message (link)
i'm sorry,


i don't know how to do that either. :/



i wish i could help.


instead of just asking one person privately,
i would post this a public question on here so then you can get a bunch of different advice from people who can hopefully help you. =]


i really want a tattoo for my 15th birthday! i want a small heart, maybe like an inch in size (just outlined). i want it on the front of my hip, just below the jean line (if your wearing ultra low-rise jeans). but im afraid what my friends will think of me. i dont want to sound snobby but i am popular in my school and go with the whole "classic girly girl from hollister/abercrombie". i dont want this tattoo if it makes me look trashy, especially at my age. what do you think? thank you for your opinion! =) (link)
A little heart on your hip? That's not trashy at all, nobody's gonna think badly of you or anything. Believe me, so many girls have that heart on the hip idea ; they all think it's cute. I've actually had that idea myself.

It'll look adorable, I'm sure all your friends'd love it. :]


I hope I helped.


they come in like almost every color and they're really comfortable and they have holes in the top of them. does anyone know what they're called and where you can get them? pictures would be nice too :] (link)
They're called Crocs.

Oh jeez, where CAN'T you get them? I see them everywhere, haha! Hm you could get them at K-Mart, Walmart, Payless, Journeys, and a bunch of other shoe stores sell them.

I hope I helped.


I don't know why and it's kinda gross but lately like everyone in my class started wearing thongs instead of underwears and even the teacher! I don't get what's so good about having a peice of string hanging up your ass. Is it like because when you're wearing something that's not jeans that the lines on your thongs wont show up as much as an underwear would? Or is it cheaper or something? (link)
No, it's not cheaper at all, thongs are usually the same price as all other sorts of underwear.

Me, personally, I don't see it either. I don't want a piece of string up my ass, so I just wear those little boy short things.

Alot of girls like them because they're "sexy" and flattering to them and it might make them see older and such. Others like them for the fact that there's no panty line and stuff from them, and they're not as visible.

I hope I helped.


how do you make holes in your jeans
do you just cut them or what? ;/ (link)
what i've done in the past ( and i've had people ask me if i bought them or made them before cause it apparently looked like i bought them that way so that's good ), is:

i take scissors and cut little holes into where i want the rips to be, and then i slowly start to tear the fabric. not TOO huge though, because after time and the more you wear the jeans, the holes'll start to spread farther and you don't want huge huge rips.

then, for a more ripped effect, you can also take a razor or a cheese grater or something like that and rub it on the pants to make that scratchy, ripped kind of look.

i hope i helped.


I just got a Steelers jersey for Christmas. Unfortunately their last game is on this Sunday coming. I can still wear the jersey right? Like to school and stuff even though their season is over? I know a lot of you will say, "who cares what you wear?" But, I just want to make sure that other people are doing it too. Because, Steelers aren't that big where I live.

Thanks! =] (link)
If you're a fan of the Steelers and want to wear their jersey, go right on ahead! I see people wearing jerseys from all different sorts of teams all the time even whenever the seasons been long over with. It just shows you like the team, and have team spirit!

And I just know people where I live would LOVELOVELOVE you, haha. I live in Pittsburgh so, yeah people here are pretty big on the Steelers if you haven't already noticed. x]

Anyways, I hope I helped!


Okayy my best friend recently started to shop at hollister. So i thought i would get her stuff from there for christmas. But see im not really the "preppy" type so i wouldnt know what to pick out from there that would be cute and she would like. So what are some of the things you like. Pictures would be appreciated.
thankss. (link)
Well, I don't shop their either, so I'm not sure how much of a help I would be, but I thought I could at least give it a try.

You can never go wrong with a gift card. Just buy her a gift card with a decent limit on the card so that way she can buy whatever's going to make her happiest and that she's satisfied with, and you did a job well done. :)

Also, you might want to check out the clearnace racks. Things can get awfully expensive in that store, and I'm sure she wouldn't mind whatever's in the clearance thing.

I went onto their site, and here's the clearance page:

http://www.hollisterco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/category1_10251_10201_12650_-1_12635

And all of those shirts look cute to me. Especially those DRAINPIPE HENLYEYS shirts or whatever they were called.

Also, maybe even buy her some perfume from their store. The smaller bottles are a semi-reasonable price, and I think in my opinion, smell SO GOOD. I have a friend who shops there, and I love her perfume to death.

Also, on the page, I've just found a lnik that says "Perfect Gifts" for the holidays. :]

http://www.hollisterco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/category1_10251_10201_12617_-1_12552

So check that out, and that page has a lot of nice, cute looking things too that I'm sure your friend would love.


I hope I helped.


whats a pansey or pansie how ever you spell it like when someone calls someone a pansie what does that mean (link)
whenever someone is called a pansy, they're basically saying that that person is a scaredy cat, a wimp, etc.

like for example if someone were to be playing truth or dare, and they didn't want to do the dare, someone could be like,"stop being such a pansy."

i hope i helped.


i wear an Avenged sevenfold hoodie and i've put a coulpe buttons on the pockets i have a Grr and Gaz buttons,some geeky World of warcraft buttons, some Halo buttons and some Suburban legend buttons is that ok or should i take the buttons off? (link)
I don't know if you mean buttons or pins, but it doesn't really matter. Whatever you want to put on your hoodie, you should put on your hoodie. Who cares if some people think it's out there or don't like it. That's their problem, and they don't HAVE to look at your hoodie.


i am 15 and for the past 3 weeks i've been straightening my hair and i've got mixed responses
to it and i just wanted to know should i keep straightening my hair? (link)
I don't think anything's wrong with a guy straightening their hair. Sometimes their hair even looks better straightened then all over the place and whatever it usually is, and it makes them look cuter.

Yeah, I've heard mixed responses cause sometimes people think it's girly of guys to straighten their hair, but really, who cares? Guys can do whatever girls do, and girls can do whatever guys do.

I hope I helped.


I'm going to a lingerie party this weekend with my boyfriend and it Christmas themed. I'm wearing this with a santa hat -- http://www.fredericks.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=Holiday2002&category%5Fname=Corsets-Lingerie&product%5Fid=50640


So I have the outfit down but I need opinions on the shoes. I was either going to wear white heels or red heels. The red would match the santa hat and the white would match everything but i dont want to go overboard with the white. Youcould also say that if I wear the red ones, i wouldnt have enough red on to match well but i'd wear red earrings and a red necklace. What do yall think? (link)
I think you should wear the red shoes and the red necklace and earring and everything.

Even though you wouldn't have enough red to match with the outfit and everything, it's still some red, which is christmas-like so it's cute.

:]

I hope I helped.


im the girl that asked bout ripped jeans.
okay i cute some holes in them && pulled them apart some.. && i do want the one holes you mentioned but i don`t have a razor or cheese grater i looked everywhere..
so do you have another idea??
&& they or really think for some reason took awhile to cut a hole.. (link)
Hm.

Maybe just try and other sharp objects lying around the house, but be careful with them, of course.

Here.

I just googled up how to make your own ripped jeans, or as some people call "distressing" them, so if this site doesn't help you, you can always try and search up "distressed jeans+make them yourself" or something.

http://www.cgarments.com/jeans/ripped-jeans-guide.php

It basically tells you a guide on some ways to just do it yourself in simple, easy, steps.

I hope I helped.


i want some ripped lookin jeans but 50 dollars boy isn`t that expensive.
actually i can`t aford clothes so expensive at the moment..
maybe 20 at the most for jeans so do you know any sites i can look at thanks.
keep in mind not expensive.. (link)
Well do you want ripped jeans for 20 bucks or even possibly, for free?

Just take a pair of old jeans you don't want to really wear anymore ( like, covered-wise that still fit and would look good ripped up ) or just buy a new pair that you'd want to rip up, and take some scissors.

Now, don't make huge cuts, cause then they'll just look sliced and weird looking. Make little snips in the places you want them, and then put two of your fingers in the little hole, and try and rip it, but slowly of course, so you don't wind up ripping more than you want.

Now just keep doing this until you've completed all the holes and everything.

Also, if you want that ripped hole look, take a cheese grater if you have one or a razor, whichever, and just start trying to rub it on the jeans and get them to create a rough texture in sports to create a hole effect, also.

Everyone always asks me where I get mine, and I just tell them I made them myself, adn they're really impressed with it too.

I hope I helped.


there's going to be a GLOW party at a teen night
club. what do I wear? i want something not TOO covered up, like i want my legs and arms showing. there's not going to be any glow paint but there will be neon necklaces and bracelets
so what should i wear? (link)
Just wear a cute mini-skirt and a cute white tank top/beater and some cute acessories to go with it. And maybe wear some white sandals, if you have them. Whatever color you want, but I'm just saying definately wear white caues whenever you wear glowing stuff, it'll stand out alot more with what you're wearing.

I hope I helped.


OK, here's the deal- I hate wearing blush (so I never do) because my cheeks are naturally pink. A lot of people think that's good. OK, it is. One less makeup product I have to spend time and money on, LOL. But, the problem is- I think they're too pink... should I put brown blush over top to tone it down?
Main reason I ask this:
whenever I laugh too hard (or get embarrassed or hot) jmy cheeks turn really red and warm!!!! And when I excercise my entire face is red which looks realyl horrible because my upper lip doesn't turn red so I have like white spots on a red face.
ughhh....
What do I do to make my face and cheeks stop turning red?
would foundation cover it up? (link)
You can try and wear some foundation to tone your naturally pink cheeks and everything, but when you start laughing and get nervous or whatever, your face is going to turn red ; you can't cover it up. Believe me, I wish could cover up my red face. This happens to everyone ; it's just signs of embarassment and everything, it'll go away.

And especially with exercising. Believe me, my face gets red and sweaty and I look like I just ran 93049304 miles or something and I'm about to pass out, lol.

Whenever you start to feel yourself get embarassed or anything, just start to take deep breaths and calm yourself down and maybe whenever you laugh, look down a bit, that's what I do. I do it naturally, but it also helps hide your red face a bit until you stop laughing and it goes away.

Also, I have this problem for whenever I'm around guys, and I do the deep breath thing and try and not stare them straight in the face until my face calms down, but it doesn't even matter. Cause once I did it, and all the guys find it cute that I get so nervous or whatever around them. So sometimes, it can even be used to your advantage. :)

I hope I helped.


ok so... for some reason, recently my hair has been coming out alot. like if i brush it it will come out.. take a shower.. run my hands throuh it.... and its annoying cuz its just annoying!!

is this normal??? my friends say it is because like i constantly have my hair pulled back and now its down..but i dont know... (link)
It is normal for your hair to fall out. About 100 strands of hair fall out daily, and especially in the shower and whenever you come your hair because whenever your hair's strands are "dead", they sort of just sit there, and not all of them fall out as easily until whenever you brush or shower, so it only seems like there's alot coming out at once, when really it just may be strands that are stuck in your hair during the day.

It could possibly be because you're always wearing your hair up. If you make a ponytail TOO tight, sometimes it can cause hairs to fall out.

I hope I helped.


in your opinion, do you think that these shoes are cute to buy ? http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensAthletics&BLC=WomensAthleticsSneakers&Width=Regular&ItemCode=55278&LotNumber=050938&Type=Adult&Popularity=16&DescriptiveColor=Tan/Pink thankss!! (link)
Yeah, I think those colors look really cute together.

I hope I helped.


its all the guys are into in 7th grade. I am at 13 year old female size 34 A. I am very slender and tall (5'4) or so. I want bigger boobs. How can I get them without pills or anything.

*I dont need advice on all that self consicous crud.k?

*And I dont want to have to stuff my bra.

Is there any special food that helps or something. (link)
There's nothing you can really do to make your boobs bigger, except get surgery, and I don't think you want surgery, let alone at 13 years old.

Believe me, you're only 13, you're young, no need for bigger boobs now. Plus, you won't stop developing and changing until you're around 18-20, you've got loads of time ahead of you for your boobs to get bigger.

Also, take a look at your genes. If you come from a line of small chested women, your boobs might come out that way because of your mother's genes and everything, but if you come from a background of big-chested woman, yours might grow to around theres. Like me, I'm have hardly any boobs ( I'm a __A ) and so is my mother.

So you don't have to stuff your bra, but until you start developing and everything, you could go to Victorias Secret or any store for that matter and by some push-up bras or padded bras for now.

I hope I helped.


My hair is like super strait and extremely hard to curl or scrunch anybody got any tips on scrunching hair? (link)
Alright, here's what I do:

I take a shower.

And then whenever I'm done, I sort of shake my head and twist it to get all the water out, and then take a towel and shake my hair with the towel some more. Sometimes that helps it to dry a little quicker.

And then after that, if it's still extremely wet, then just get ready if you're getting ready for school or for wherever or just hang around and watch tv, whatever to waste time. But check on your hair every so often and feel if it's damp. It needs to be partially wet to work.

Whenever it's damp, then just take a really strong gel that you know'll hold and put it in your hands and just sort of.. grab your hair and keep doing it and watch as your hair gets that scrunched look.

The once you're done doing it to your whole head, I would suggest spraying your hair with some good hairspray to, so you'll be sure it's going to stay that way for the rest of the day/night.

I hope I helped.


Hey. Well, I was wondering if Hollister was still selling tote bags in their stores because they dont have them on their website. Also, does Abercrombie & Fitch still sell those blue totes bags that say A&F on the side in stores because they don't have them on their website either. Thanks & (link)
I'm not sure where you live, but I've seen some girls around here with them, so I'm sure they still have them in their stores. You can never really trust to check the internet to see if they're still in storage. Like with me and Delias, Delias has other shirts that their stores don't, and their stores have shirts and stuff that their website doesn't. So if you ever need to see if somethings in stores, the best thing to just go and check it out and ask someone who works there.

I hope I helped.
