Ah, the fashion world, one of the most prestigious clubs you can be in.

If you want to rock it, there are many things to know and many things to make sure you do not do. You must make sure to not make silly mistakes because others are sure to not forget your errors or fashion faux pas. Here are nine tips to know to master the fashion world, and keep you on Anna's good side:

1. Louis Vuitton is not the same as Louboutin.

Louis Vuitton, famous for their LV pattern on bags, trunks, shoes, everything. Christian Louboutin, most famous for those beautiful heels you see with their signature red bottom. Yes, they sound similar, no they are not the same thing.

Louboutin's.

2. Givenchy is not pronounced "give-en-chee."

Say it with me... "zhiv-on-shee."

3. Just because Gigi Hadid rocked it doesn't mean you need to. 

Yes...we all saw how great she looked in what she was wearing. Yes, it was a pajama set. No, if you show up in the same pajama set and heels, it will not be considered fashionable.

4. Tone it down. 

Less can totally and in most cases be more. Glitz and glitter are cool if it's your thing, but if you don't have to flash glitz to master the fashion world. Simplicity can be the highest form of elegance.

5. Know the staple "fashion weeks." 

The Big Four: Paris, New York, Milan, London.

6. Know what the Met Gala is. 

If you love fashion, the Met Gala is your Super Bowl. Know it, love it, live for it. I know I do. And yes, Blake is the queen of it.

7. Be aware of trends and culture, but don't over apply what you've learned. 

*Understands small a*s sunglasses will just never look good on my face, no matter how "in" the Kardashians and Kanye have made them right now.*

8. If it's French, you probably are looking at silent letters. 

As an example, the French don't pronounce H in Hermés. So be careful in your pronunciation of common French brand names.

9. Anna's word is law. 

That is that.

Good luck, and of course remember, "Trendy is the last stage before tacky." — Karl Lagerfeld

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
