5 Timeless Retro Looks to Wear Today

1. Peter Pan Collar

This look is classic, and can be dressed up or down. For a night on the town, some sleek black jeans amp up the drama. For brunch with the gals, denim cutoffs make this casual and cute.


2. Circle Skirt

Whether long or short, a circle skirt is guaranteed to give your outfit some sass and flare. A shorter circle skirt is great for the spring, and longer for the fall. The fuller body and folds of fabric look and feel luxurious and stylish!


3. Turtle Neck Sweater

Channel your inner artist with a classic black, or add your own flare with a color or tank sleeves—whatever the specs, a turtleneck sweater is classic and can be balanced by a shorter skirt or slim jeans.


4. Wind Breaker

Whether you’re bold enough to try a crazy vintage print or you just like the loose look and elastic waist, a 90’s windbreaker is a statement piece with surprising warmth. I love my dark teal windbreaker (goodwill!) and it keeps me warm in the fall, the spring, and even some milder winter days.

High-Waisted Jeans or Shorts

These were normal back in the eighties—after the low-rise craze of the early 2000’s, they’ve earned their own name on the shelf. High-waisted jeans (or high-waisted anything) are so flattering and, frankly, more comfortable than jeans you have to hoist over your butt all day. And personally, I’m super excited that the fitted-waist loose-leg Levi’s look is back from the 70’s. High-waist all the way.

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.
