Plus Sizes At Shopping Centers

You really can't find anything over the size of an XL at the mall.

Every time I see a cute outfit and go inside a store only to find out it doesn't come in a size larger than an XL I'm extremely disappointed. I wish I could just go into the store and buy the exact same outfit as the girl that is a size small.

A girl can dream and keep hoping that one day, clothing will come in all different sizes.

Although I will say there are different clothing stores that are making it their goal to include all sizes, I know the list of stores that offer plus size clothing could get A LOT longer.

Don't get me wrong I can get a significant amount of clothing online that is meant for plus-size girls but on some occasions, you just need to run to the store and pick something out without having to wait a few days.

I know you might be thinking - well just go to Torrid (Plus Size Retailer) and pick something up and to that, I would say have you seen their prices?!

As a college student, I can tell you right now that the only way I would be able to afford an outfit from there is if I sold a liver.

You also have to think that there are several awkward situations that could be avoided with the inclusivity of all sizes. I can not tell you how many times I have gotten a confused look from a clothing store employee. It's like, I know I'm not a size L, but that doesn't mean I can't look.

All in all, including plus sizes at ALL retail stores (no exceptions), would just show that the fashion industry is making it a point to include EVERYONE. No one deserves to feel excluded, even if it is just on the basis of a piece of clothing.

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.
