Clear Is The New Black

For those of us who NEED a purse on game days.

Clear Is The New Black
Molly Edmondson

Being a freshman, I can't even begin to tell you how excited I've been for Alabama football to finally start! I'd meticulously picked out what "game day outfit" I would wear to each game, and the respective shoes and accessories to coordinate.

Everything was perfect until someone asked if I had gotten my clear purse yet. A clear purse? What in the world was she talking about? My dreams of filling my cute cross-body purse with tickets and makeup for game day were quickly dashed. Luckily there is hope for us!

For those of you that don't know, this is a new policy for games this year. Alabama has stated that no bags will be allowed into the stadium if they do not meet their specific requirements which are as follows; a clear plastic bag that is no larger than 12 x 6 x 12 or a small purse/clutch that is no larger than 4 1/2" by 6 1/2".

It's hard enough to find a regular purse for game day, so here are some options that you can bring with you into Bryant-Denny.

1. The Classic

So this may not the cutest bag, but it is functional! This is the official Alabama bag that the Supestore, Academy, Hibbetts, Walmart and others are selling. Grab it for yourself pretty much anywhere in Tuscaloosa!

2. The Customizable

Now this one is a game changer. On the Jon Hart website, they have multiple shades of red to get you in the spirit! They will even customize it for you with a stamp on the front with your name! I mean if it's not monogrammed, it's not mine am I right?

3. The Clutch

This stylish clutch is available for the low price of $20.99 on Amazon currently. Low price for high fashion? I think yes!

4. The Classic Cross-body

The Flying Fox is a little-known company that is about to become BIG, y'all. Mark my words and hop on these cute bags fast! Perfectly stadium approved with a wide range of colors to boot!

5. The Designer Pick

This is a solid pick for the girls who are just not feeling the clear trend. Being 4.5" by 6.2" means this tiny accessory can go with you anywhere on gameday!

See you ladies sporting your 'Bama approved bags next Saturday! Kent State won't know what hit 'em!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
