Here are my top tips for the most efficient ways to online shopping.

1. Check measurements

Since you cannot try on the clothing items, check the measurements for each size then measure yourself to get the best fit possible. You can often check the models' measurements to see how it would look on you or how long it will be.

2. Check reviews

For clothing items on the site, check the individual reviews. Customers will often leave pictures of themselves in the article of clothing that way you can better imagine how it will fit you. Also, you can look at the comment reviews to see if they recommend to size up or down.

3. Do your research

Only shop on sites you trust because there is less of a chance your order being messed up. If you do not know the site or have never used it before then research it because most of the time you can find review videos or sites telling you other people's experiences with the site.

4. Sign up for rewards programs

Most major clothing companies have rewards systems. All you have to do is simply sign up with your email or phone number. So when you shop you are earning points toward your future purchases. They also tend to send first-time signup bonuses, which is a fun extra bonus.

Hopefully, if you use these tips, it will make your shopping experience as easy and stressful as possible.

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.
