5 Ways To Wear Pink When You Love Black

Pink is a major fall trend this year as opposed to your typical darker colors. From barely there pinks to bright bold hues, we're seeing them all over the runways. Most of us love breaking out the head-to-toe black, but with pink topping the charts for trends, we can afford to switch it up a little bit. It's not horrible to change up your outfits and add a pop of pink sometimes! You just have to do so the right way so you can still look chic, feel good, and keep your personal style in check.

Need some inspiration? Here are five different ways you can rock this seemingly girly color and make it more edgy. This listicle may just convert you to loving pink that much more!

1. Layer it with a leather jacket.

Adding a leather jacket to any outfit makes it instantly more edgy. Pairing a black leather jacket over a soft pink hue surely toughens it up and contrasts the two styles nicely. Add metallic accessories for chic embellishment. Take your look from day to night by wearing a pencil skirt for work and changing into a pair of dark wash jeans for the evening.

2. Try dusty pink hues.

Dusty pink is very popular wherever you go. Plus, it's so much easier to wear in an outfit when bright pink isn't your cup of tea. Dusty pink jeans are similar enough to a neutral that you can pair them with many outfits. This grey slouchy shirt and over-sized clutch allow the pink to pop more while the nude shoes offset the jeans. Try dusty pink blouses and jackets as well to pair with outfits like a neutral jacket.

3. Pair it with an all black outfit.

There's nothing edgier than a great head to black outfit, but this time try switching it up! This light pink and flowing blouse really stands out compared to the rest of the black in the ensemble. Typically a blouse like this would be very feminine and frilly, but if you want to change it up this is the way to do it!

4. Incorporate it into your makeup.

A nude pink lip is super popular versus the typical nude lips you've been seeing. This is a great natural makeup look, super easy to do and can be paired with all your looks. This is also an easy way to incorporate some pink into your everyday look without trying too hard.

5. Rock it with your shoes.

Can we talk about how gorgeous and comfortable lace up flats are to wear? Make the most out of your shoes and go for a light or dusty pink pair of lace up flats. This way, you can rock them with your work and weekend wear. Plus, they can go from day to night (one less thing you need to change when you're in a rush).

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
