How I Gained Killer Confidence

I have an underwear addiction...well, I have a Victoria's Secret PINK underwear addiction. I don't have enough money for Agent Provocateur, I'm a college student dammit! I eat A LOT of mac and cheese. Like a lot, a lot. Anyway, I digress... I have long been a strong believer that the underwear you wear has the power to make or break your day (or evening *wink* *wink*) and today I shall pass this wisdom forth unto you.

Ever since I first laid my eyes upon the beautiful PINK display that read "5/$27 undies" I knew I was done for. I firmly believe that the underwear you choose is one of the best kept secrets to boosting one's confidence. It's something that is only for you, completely up to your own discretion and imagination as there are so many colors, cuts, and patterns to choose from nowadays! Now, onto types of underwear and what they mean.

1. The Boyshorts

Old reliable. There for you with all of your coverage and period comfy needs. After a long day your bits need a break from synthetic fabrics, or tighter fits; the boyshort is the perfect 'at home' choice. They hold all of your bits and pieces without judgement in super soft, breathable cotton. And nothing helps you day to day like knowing you've got your go-to waiting for you at home!

2. Hipsters

The timid cousin of the boyshort, covering all your bits and pieces. Similar to the 'bikini' cut that we first rocked in middle school, the hipster offers all the coverage of a boyshort, but without the possibility of bunching in some tight jeans. Although they aren't exactly flirty, they are a step up from the boyshort, but still comfy as hell; and that's all that really matters, right?

3. Cheeksters

The coy flirt of the underwear realm, showing off just enough to keep you wanting more. The Cheekster is the fun step before the thong or V-string. It offers a flirty feel without all the committment of a full on thong. The Cheekster is the cute little secret that only you know, and it offers a great confidence boost on those days you need an extra push. My fave are the No-Shows!

4. Thongs

The 'going out' go to--making your cares and panty lines disappear. Remember the days when these were scary, and foreign? We're past that. The thong is the ultimate confidence boost in my arsenal. Whether it's all lace, comfy cotton, or a workout/spandex material the thong is the No.1 choice in my arsenal.

Now, I know to some I sound crazy, and that's okay. But for those of you who know what I'm talking about, you know how big of a difference the right underwear can make day to day! It's a clothing staple, and one of the best kept secrets to having killer confidence in whatever you do. So do yourself a favor, go down to PINK or Victoria's Secret, or whatever underwear/intimates store you prefer, treat yourself to a new round of underwear, and see what kind of difference the right pair can make for you.

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.
