17 Reasons Why Dressing Up Isn't Worth It

Getting ready to go out is probably the most useless thing all girls will stress about at least three times a week. We all know it too well, around 8 p.m. your phone is buzzing with people asking what your wearing and if they can look in your closet. Then you have to worry about doing your makeup, redoing your makeup when you mess up, and then the worst part finding shoes to match your outfit. After all of this you then walk to the mirror and completely change your mind. The next thing you know you have 15 minutes before you’re leaving and you’ve missed the pre-game. Don’t be this girl, don’t delay the party. I use to be this girl, but last summer I discovered an amazing new look. I call it the “shabby chic” aka I have given up. While I say that I “just got off work” or “just left the beach” or my favorite “just worked out,” this is all not the case. The way to go ladies, flip flops, leggings, an old t-shirt, and top it off with some kind of hat (because who has time to deal with hair styling). Here is a least of way dressing casual is the ultimate way to have a great night.

  1. No effort. It's like a “shabby chic” look.
  2. No expectations. Going in with low expectations, literally it could only get better.
  3. More Attention. Guys give you more attention because they think your super go with the flow.
  4. No worries. You don’t have to worry about if a guy likes you for your looks, its clearly your personality at this point.
  5. Stress Free. You generally are just going to act more relaxed because you don't have to worry about your sticky boob showing.
  6. Sleepover ready. No need to bring an overnight bag because you’re good to go.
  7. Long hair, don’t care. If you add a hat to your ensemble you don’t even have to worry about your hair.
  8. Spill proof. Don’t worry about spilling on a new shirt, you got what you’re wearing from Goodwill anyway.
  9. More friends. Other girls don’t see you as a threat so you are bound to make a bunch of friends that need a wing woman (or someone to stand next to so they look better).
  10. Flip cup ready. You scream the perfect drinking game partner, because clearly you just came to party.
  11. Free Stuff. On the flip side, people may feel bad for you and give you free drinks.
  12. No more fighting. Don’t worry about fighting with your significant other when they aren’t out with you because you look like a trash bag so clearly they have nothing to worry about.
  13. Cheap date vibes. But guys are still going to hit on you (refer to number 3) because you look low maintenance (aka cheap).
  14. Sweater weather ready. You’re ready for whatever mother nature throws at you. All the girls that decided to wear shorts in 60-degree weather are really going to envy you now.
  15. One word, flats. Not only are you dressed for the weather, but you also put on shoes that you can walk in.
  16. Protect your closet. People wont ask to borrow any of your clothes or ask you what your wearing because like look at you.
  17. Guaranteed a good time. You are having a blast while feeling like you’re wearing a snuggie (who knows maybe you are).

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.
