One thing that makes blush such an easy and versatile color to wear is the wide range of shades to choose from! If your skin has yellow or olive undertones, stick to the more rosy and mauve shades. If your skin has neutral undertones, you can usually wear just about any shade of blush you want, you just have to be careful with the light or tan-based blushes if you're pale -- trust me, it is awkward for everyone if your clothes accidentally match your skin. Even if you have pink undertones, you can still totally rock this trend by going for more of the tan blushes. So really, there is a shade out there to fit everyone!

Jewelry

If you want a more noncommittal way to incorporate blush into your outfit, your accessories are the perfect place to play around with it! Whether you choose a necklace with blush accents or mix your metals up by adding some rose gold, jewelry is the perfect place to test the waters without having to fully dive into this trend!

Handbags

If you find yourself having a hard time finding that perfect blush for your skin tone, adding the pop of subtle color through your bag could be your key to blush success! Bonus: because blush is still a very neutral color, it's easy to switch out your nude bag for the slightly girlier shade while still maintaining a professional and put-together feel!

Tech Accessories

If you want to add more of that girly and flirty vibe to your everyday life, adding hints of blush to your tech accessories is the perfect way to do it! Getting a blush case for your phone, or splurging a bit on a pink Beats Pill are both cute and easy ways to add a feminine touch to your otherwise plain or bulky electronics!

Beauty

Blush has also been making a big statement in the beauty world, probably most well-known and loved in the NAKED3 palette that was released last winter. Since then, it's become a major staple in a lot of companies' new lines for this winter and into the spring! Bonus: the rosy and mauve shades in the NAKED3 palette work well with any eye color, but they especially make green, hazel, and brown eyes really pop!

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.
