Off-price retail stores are extremely common today, yet very underrated and underestimated. One of the most affordable ways to shop, with a multitude of popular name brands, these stores should be your go to. Why go to large expensive department stores when you can find the exact same brands for cheaper?

Here are five reasons why you should not underestimate an off-price retail store and you should head over to one ASAP:

1. Nice brands for an affordable price

From Lagos to Michael Kors, to Valentino and Jimmy Choo, these off-price retail stores have almost every nice brand. And the best part? They’re almost half the price. Why spend full price on those Christian Louboutin shoes you just NEED to have when you can buy them for almost half off?! Off-price retail stores have a multitude of varying brands and items and all at an affordable price. Almost everything you can find is nice, well made and well priced.

2. Finding one-of-a-kind items

Of course, you can find differing opinions on all items that are trending at the moment. However, you can find items that no one else has. There's nothing better than having the cutest pair of jeans or shoes and knowing that no one else is wearing them too. You can feel like you have your own style and are unique in your own way. These stores are the perfect place to find items to add a change to your style, and personalize it making it just for you! You’ll be the only one rocking the cutest booties ever.

3. More value

There is simply no better feeling than walking out of a store spending the same amount of money on six items, that you would've spent on one item at another store. Off-price retail stores allow you to get more for your buck! You can buy amazing items of the same quality for a much more affordable price. With such a great price, you can buy even more without feeling all the guilt!

4. Shopping from every department

Most off-price retail stores allow you to shop from all different departments. Between jewelry, apparel, bags, furniture, beauty products, etc. there are an abundance of opportunities and items to find. Everything is in one place, with all different items, and again, all for an affordable price.

5. Return anything with no restocking fee

One of the best policies with most of these off-price retail stores is that you can return anything without a restocking fee. There is nothing worse than paying a fee for having to return something you do not want. You can return any of these items whenever you need and never have to worry about paying a fee for it. Just another great way to save money.

PSA: The number one rule with off-price retail stores; if you see something you like, buy it! Sometimes there's only one or two of these items in every store, and if you don't buy it, the item might not be there when you decide you want it and come back. Buy the item if you’re considering it at all. And you don't need to worry, you won't be charged if you return it!

Where to shop: TJ Maxx, Marshall's, Ross Stores, Nordstrom Rack, Saks Off 5th, Bluefly, DSW, Burlington Coat Factory

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.
