One of the most obvious signs I've seen is that ISFPs tend to dress/groom well, in a fashionable way. Not a high priority for most INFPs, and they won't be as up on the fashions even if they try; they're more offbeat and earthy.

Anne sounds more INFP-y to me, mostly based on the sound of her creative output, and the fact that she's slightly less productive. Of course, typing someone you haven't met on so short a description is a bit like reading tea leaves. ;)

Ehhh I think it really depends. I know a lot of INFP 4w5s who dress really well in a hipstery, quirky yet put-together way. The 9w8 ISFP I know dresses in pops of bright colors sometimes but the outfits are a bit more earthy and less stylized.

Yeah. This also confuses me. I dress very stylistically, but also very shoddily. You can tell what I do by looking at me and reading the words on my shirt kind of thing.

After much pondering, and reading about functions I think I'm an INFP.
I often wear the same clothes for 4-5 days, as long as it doesn't stink too much it's good to go, now that's definitely an Si trait. :D

Why would that be an Si trait?
