BuzzFeed's 'Ladylike' Will Give Every Woman Confidence, Inspiration, And A Good Laugh

Photo by Ladylike / YouTube

About a year ago, I came across a video on Facebook from BuzzFeed. I'd seen BuzzFeed videos before, but never from this group—Ladylike. The video was simple, just a "Beauty Roulette" about putting on a full face of makeup in under two minutes. The video itself was entertaining, but what really fascinated me were the personalities of the five members of the group.

The five women of Ladylike—Kristin, Jen, Devin, Freddie, and Chantel—are what make the channel as amazing as it is. The group is incredibly diverse, and their personalities shine through in every video. They're constantly supporting each other, having fun, and just living the best lives that they can.

Vidoes include ordering clothes from Amazon, testing beauty products, cooking competitions, photoshoots, getting tattoos, and trying every food from Trader Joe's.

While of course the videos are entertaining, what continues to draw me back every time is the overall "love yourself" message of every video.

Kristin teaches everyone to love their bodies, no matter what they look like.

Devin, who teaches pole dancing, teaches you to embrace being a woman.

Freddie teaches you to take fashion risks and that it's OK to be a little extra.

Chantel teaches you to love the earth as much as you love yourself.

Jen teaches you to have fun in everything you do—and to always carry a knife.

As a teenage girl starting college and getting ready to face the world, I love watching these women. They give me confidence in myself, always make a bad day better, and continue to inspire me every time. All women should watch Ladylike, even if it's only once. Give them the opportunity to inspire you like they've already inspired so many women.

To get you started, here's one of my favorite videos, but I also recommend all the ones above.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
