The whole Kardashian clan is well-known for being entrepreneurs. So it was no surprise that Khloe joined the fam and launched her own denim line. Khloe and business partner Emma Grede cofounded Good American.

The first collection dropped yesterday, October 18th on Nordstrom and the Good American website. What I was particularly excited for with this launch, is the message behind Good American. The brand carries jeans, sizes 0 to 24. Khloe already stated that she doesn't want her line to be called "plus size". She wants the line to be known to fit any and all women. The jeans vary in price from $149-$215. At first look you might be wondering, why so much for plain blue jeans? What makes this line so different is the contour waistbands, stitching, and special fabrications. With 3 different silhouettes, skinny (Good Legs), high-waisted (Good Waist), and boyfriend (Good Cuts). If you struggle finding a precise fit of jean, Emma and Khloe set out to rock your world.

Both women shared their body-positive passions and wanted their line to represent all women. Empowering such women to feel confident and sexy in jeans that fit to their curves without alterations. This launch is a huge step in fashion regarding body image. Another clothing brand, Aerie, stepped up and included curvier women in their ads as well as unedited photos. With brands like Aerie and Good American, they're knocking down barriers and making a statement.

What's pretty cool about their campaign is that they recruited real women and fans instead of models, they sent out a message on social media a few months back and got an overpowering response. Featuring women from all different backgrounds, plus they also didn't edit the photos!

A quote off of the Good American website "Fashion should be made to fit women, not the other way around." I am so ecstatic about this brand and the message they're sending to all generations. Also, who doesn't love a designer jean at a good price?! I will proudly be supporting the Good American brand and (hopefully) purchasing my first pair before they sell out!

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.
