Best Colors For Summer 2016

Summer is upon us and I know that when I think of summer I think of bright colors. Color is such an easy thing to incorporate into your daily life and even though I'm that girl who owns about every clothing item in black, just seeing color can brighten my day and attitude. Whether you incorporate small amounts of color by having a bright phone case or shoes; or you go all out and bravely rock that head to toe coral outfit using color is a great way to brighten you day and those around you as well. Below are some popular colors for summer 2016 that you can try out in a phone case, flip flops, or anything for that matter.

1. Pink

While pink is not my favorite color it is extremley popular and almost any item can be found in various shades of pink. A nice rosy pink can be perfect if your trying to look put togther but fun at the same time.

2. Blue

A classic blue is many people's favorite color. Turquoise is a shade I tend to favor in the summertime because it can set off a tan perfectly, check out a flowy summer dress to showcase that tan you've been working on all summer.

3. Yellow


When I think of color I think of yellow, it's such a cheery color and depending on the shade you choose it will make you look happy even when you aren't.

4. Red


While red might not be the first thing people gravitate to when thinking of color it still should be a contender. Pink is in the same color family, however, choosing a bright red pop of color can set you apart from others. Try using it in small doses at first if you're nervous about looking like a tomato.

5. Green

Green is another great bright color to incorporate during the summer. Try fun green shoes to draw others eyes or channel nature and choose a green leaf print to wear.

6. Gold

Gold can go with almost anything and it a great choice when thinking of accessories. This is a great choice if you have warmer undertones or if you gravitate towards warmer colors.

7. Silver

The opposite end of the spectrum, silver is a cool and modern choice to wear or accessorize with. If your into cooler colors this is a great choice to add a bit more to you outfit. While some might stay in the same color families with gold being more warm and silver more cool, I love the look of mixed metals and it's a great way to tie any colors together.

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.
