Have you ever been called a "basic white girl" and wondered why? Well here are a list of reasons your friends may be breaking out the word "basic" on you. Here are some tell tale signs you might be the most basic of white girls in all the land.
You might be a basic white girl if...
1. You love Starbucks just as much as you love your cat or your mom.
Stereotypical white girls love their coffee flavors. Some snapchat it, some more serious post to Instagram or Twitter to show off their favorite every day pick me up. Pumpkin spice, french vanilla, white chocolate mocha and the list goes on and on and on. You've probably reached the "Gold Card" status at your favorite luscious bean beverage making joint.
2. You retweet/quote all of the Tumblr like quotes that come across your timeline.
Yes, you all know what I'm talking about. Those quotes you scroll past on Twitter every day that could apply to anyone about nearly anything, yeah those are the one's I'm talking about.
3. You can spontaneously quote Mean Girls whenever it's most fitting to your current circumstance in life, and you take pride in doing so.
"Get in loser, we're going shopping." "That is so fetch." You all know exactly what I mean. If you can't quote the whole movie then chances are you aren't the basic white girl you thought you were.
4. Leggings are bae.
You probably have a pair in every color, texture, and length. You're pretty much in them all of the time except for when you have to be dressed up. Victoria's Secret always has the cutest one's and you continue to say you need more even when you probably have over twenty pair at home.
5. Being tan isn't a want it's a must. A lifestyle. A necessity.
Tan skin is no joke to you. You visit the tanning bed at least three times a week. The perfect glow must be just that...perfect and bronze. You love being tan.
6. You frequent your Pinterest app more than most.
If Pinterest is where more than half of your quotes, beauty hacks, style guides, and hair do's come from then you're definitely a basic white girl. I'm as guilty as all get out myself, but this is most certainly a "basic white girl" way of life.
7. Your favorite Chapstick is pumpkin spice flavored.
You would choose pumpkin spice anything three six five if it were available to you, so why not for your lip addiction? The lips HAVE to be mositurized periodically, so why wouldn't you want your Chapstick in your favorite latte flavor.
8. You love abbreviating and giving everything a nickname.
If a word or a name can be shortened in some fashion you do it, and you are shameless in your frequent use of it. Acronyms are ftw.
9. You wish you were Kim Kardashian.
With a booty, a diamond, fashion sense, and a lavish lifestyle like she has I mean who wouldn't dream of being Kim? As the basic white girl you are you probably follow her on all social media.
10. You're obsessed with make up.
You're up to date with all of the latest and the greatest make up lines. Chances are you're a Sephora VIP member. When something new comes out that you just have to have you're one of the first of your friends to have it because you NEED it. No worries your mom understands though, well...sort of (maybe if you're lucky).
