A Guide To The College Girl Trend

Because life would be boring if we all looked as if we cared!

A Guide To The College Girl Trend
Courtney Carver

Needless to say that a college girl has a strange sense of fashion. On one day, we are dressed to the nines with dresses and pearls and the next day you are lucky if we even changed clothes since getting out of bed and 99 percent of the time, it is the latter. Here are some of the essentials of the College Girl Trend:

1. Nike Shorts

I'll start with probably one of the most important item in completing the College Girl Trend. These shorts, regardless of if the girl is athletic or not, are found on almost every girl out there. The even better part is that the match everything and come in just about any color imaginable, not to mention they are by far the most comfortable shorts ever worn!

2. LEGGINGS!

Some will argue that I should have started the list with this, but being as it is too hot to wear these right now, they will go second. These are basically the closest you can come to no pants, without wearing no pants. Legging Season 2016 is right around the corner, y'all better get ready!

3. Two sizes too big T-shirts

This is essential to pair with the two items above. This trend has to be one of my favorites so far! Either I can wear the new T-shirt I just bought last week or the one I have had for years and it does not even make a difference. The best part about it being oversized is that it is so comfortable. It also makes you look so much smaller than you actually are, which is always a plus. Am I right or Am I right?

4. Monograms Everywhere!

Most college girls have atleast one thing monogrammed with their initials. (Or like me with half the things I own have mine on them.) I guess if people don't know our names, maybe they can know us by our initials?

5. A Classy Pair of Earrings

A classy pair of earrings can go with anything. They give us a false sense of hope, that we maybe are dressing a little nicer.

6. Makeup and Hair From the Night before.

And finally to complete every college girl's outfit, you top it off with the hair and make-up from the night before. Cut us some slack we stayed up *Cough* *Cough* "studying" until 3 a.m. and have to be back in class by 8 a.m.? Raise your hand if you have ever felt personally victimized by 8 a.m.'s?! The best part now is that technology has advanced so far, that we can finally apply makeup and cover our hair with Snapchat filters. So the rest of the world (who hopefully won't see us in person), may actually think we got our lives together!

All of these may seem silly or almost like we don't care (probably the latter), but us college girls know that really all that matters is what is on the inside: a full heart and a even fuller stomach of pizza!

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.
