Nicolas Cages National Treasure Outfits: Ranked.

I know what you're thinking: National Treasure, with its gripping action plot and stellar performances can't possibly have a noteworthy wardrobe IN ADDITION to being the greatest cinematic experience since Citizen Kane a fine mid 2000's tale of romance and adventure. But au contraire, mon ami.

You were wrong.... So wrong.



So without further ado, here's a ranked countdown of ALL of Nick Cage's suave 'fits from National Treasure



5. The Post-Treasure-Discovery Brown Corduroy Suit

Oh, we get it Nick.

You got the girl, you got your money, and now your too cool for school and showing off a little chest hair. While a fashionable ensemble for a windy 20004 November... clearly not your best work.



4. The Stealing the Declaration Tux

If you've got to steal the Declaration of Indepence, you've got to do it in style.

Dapper? Sure. But c'mon Cagey Boy.... Where's the pizzazz?



3.The Antarctic Snow Suit

Here we go.

You're fiending for your first clue, and finally rocking an outfit that says "hey clue, I know it's cold, but I'm ready for you.".... don't even get me started on that fur.

2. Clue-Huntin' Denim Jacket


I know what you're thinking-- We're halfway through this masterpiece film, we have some clues, the team chemistry is building, but when will the romance develop?

Luckily, one hour and nine minutes into National Treasure, NC Hammer finds himself with his babe co-star and fellow history lover, Abigail, played by Diane Kruger. Over this...interesting exchange.... at an Urban Outfitters (yes, they even pan across the sign) Nick dons his clue nappin' denim jacket and finally can get down to some serious clue hunting business... and letting this romance blossom.

1. Boom.


What are we stealin'? The Liberty Bell? The Mona Lisa? The moon? It doesn't matter. I can steal anything with this suit jacket white button down combo.

And besides, who even saw that Da Vinci Movie anyways? Tom Hanks-- feel free to square up with me at the Louvre and bring your fightin' gloves. There's only room for one receding hairline history-expert / high-security thief round these parts.

You might be wondering, are we striking power poses with one too many undone buttons, or solving the thousand year mystery of the Freemasons?

Does it matter. We're doing it with style.

And THAT is why Nicolas Cage is the true National Treasure.

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.
