An Open Letter To Victoria's Secret

To whom it may concern,

I think I am speaking on every girls' behalf when I say that we were all overturned at the announcement that Victoria's Secret would be discontinuing their swim line to focus on athletic wear. I applaud this brave move of yours, however, I can't help but wonder if you are aware of your biggest competitors in the athletic industry, such as Lulu Lemon, Nike, Under Armour or Fabletics? As it appears that you will have to compete to stay in the running against these major companies, you were already in first place for your swimwear, so why change it up?

Victoria's Secret's swimwear is worn by women of all ages and every shape and size. What is so unique about your bathing suits is that instead of just selling an extra small, small, medium or large, there are cup sizes to ensure a perfect fit for one's specific body type. This is not an easy feat.

Over the years I have invested quite a bit of my money on VS swimwear, and I had every intention on continuing my loyalty to your company. Unfortunately, with the termination of your swim line, you will be losing a lot of my business, along with many of the girls my age.

Each spring we look forward to the new swim line and going to the stores to try on our favorite picks. With the elimination of your swimwear, we will now be forced to purchase online from leading swim wear companies over seas to match the quality of Victoria's Secret. This is quite a hassle considering the fact that we cannot just go to the local retailer to make sure we're getting something that fits right before buying. Not to mention the cost of it all and possible returns and exchanges.

Your swimwear was comfortable, affordable and trendy. Please consider bringing it back for the sanity of myself and the majority of the female population.

Sincerely,

A concerned female

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.
