11 Things Every Girl Can Learn From Elle Woods
Decider

From the notorious bend and snap to never giving up on your dreams, Elle Woods has taught girls all around the world countless lessons. Legally Blonde premiered almost 15 years ago and ever since has shown us that if you follow your heart and always have faith in yourself and others, you will change the world!

We learned that orange is not the new pink and that you don't have to be a "Vanderbilt" to get the guy of your dreams. Elle taught us the rules of haircare, to never pay full price for last season's fashion and that it's impossible to use a half-loop top-stitching on a low-viscosity rayon. But even more importantly, she taught us that first impressions are sometimes not correct and that you can do anything you set your mind to.

Here are some of the most important things Elle Woods taught us.

1. Support others!

Uplift others and always be kind. When the going gets tough, pull out the Snap Cup and you will find harmony and love!

2. There is no such thing as loving your dog too much.


No explanation needed.

3. There will always be a Vivian in your life...

But always be the bigger person and give her a chance and she could end up being one of your best friends.

4. Never be embarrassed, always be confident! Rock that bunny suit!!

Sometimes the path you are walking on will get bumpy and in that moment you will have two choices. Either you succumb to the predicament or you learn a lesson and grow from the hardship that took place.

5. Work out!


Because exercise gives you endorphins and endorphins make you happy. And happy people just don't shoot their husbands. They just don't.

6. After a hard day treat yourself to a manicure and some relaxation...you may even meet a Paulette and become best friends.

Whatever you do in life...find your Paulette.

7. Bend and Snap!

This may grab some guys' attention...but so will your personality, character and values!

8. Sometimes people will betray you...

But stay classy and stay true to yourself and you will come out ahead.

9. Don't judge a book by its cover.

...or its hair color. Judging someone doesn't define that person, it defines you!

10. A girl can be both fabulous in fashion and a powerhouse in politics (or whatever career she chooses).

Stand out and stand up for what you believe in and you will make a difference in this world.

11. Leave Warner behind and move on to your Emmett!

Sometimes when we have something we think it is the best thing ever. Little do we know that when we lose the thing we thought was most important, something even better comes our way.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
