12 Candles You Need In Your Life

If there's one thing a person can't have too much of, it's candles. Though a bit expensive (usually $15-25 a pop) candles wake up your senses and make the world smell better. Sometimes, a fresh air scented candle smells better than actual fresh air. Consider investing in these 12 candles if you're looking to switch up the scents in your life.

1. Café Al Fresco, Yankee Candle

A coffee scented candle for when you want the smell of your morning cup of Joe to linger for a bit longer. (I wish I knew about this before I kept my old Starbucks cups on my desk in the hopes they would act as air fresheners. True story).

2. Eucalyptus Mint, Bath & Body Works

Did someone say stress relief? Light up this candle when you're overwhelmed or in need of a good relaxing sesh. Breathe in, breathe out.

3. Pink Sands, Yankee Candle

Because pink sand smells better than regular sand, amiright?

4. Holiday Cookies, Sonoma

There's nothing better than the smell of freshly baked cookies, especially the holiday ones. Who wouldn't want to smell holiday cookies all yearlong? What a treat!

5. Evergreen, Bath & Body Works

Sometimes you need to smell trees, especially if you're living that city life. This candle will make you feel as though you're in a forest full of gorgeous, green, glistening trees.

6. Cucumber Melon, Diamond Candles

A classic scent, cucumber melon will leave you feeling refreshed and ready to take on anything that comes your way.

7. Midsummer's Night, Yankee Candle

This candle smells like a man (in a good way). So if you can't curl up in blankets and watch Netflix with your beau, light this candle. It'll almost be like he is there. Almost.

8. Teakwood, WoodWick

Not only does this candle release a wood scent, but its wooden wicks make a crackling sound when lit to produce a soothing ambiance. Perfect for those who don't have a fireplace.

9. Macintosh, Yankee Candle

No, this candle doesn't smell like a computer. Pretend you're wandering through an apple orchard when you smell this fresh Macintosh aroma.

10. Bergamot Waters, Bath & Body Works

If you're a die-hard Bath & Body Works lover, then you know the dancing waters scent they offer. This candle is similar, so if you enjoy that, then it's a safe bet you'll enjoy this one, too.

11. Currant , WoodWick

For when you're in the mood for a sweet, juicy aroma that will make your home feel light and airy.

12. Vanilla Bean, WoodWick

Sit back and relax with the smell of pure vanilla bean and the sound of an open fire.

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.
