Rompin' Around In Style

Bold trends can lead to interesting obstacles.

Rompin' Around In Style

Today, I wore my first romper... And, I can successfully say it did not wedge, prod, or squeeze into any unwanted crevices.

Ladies, if you have given way to the trend that is the romper, you definitely know what I'm talking about.

For those of you who are less familiar with the romper, picture an 80's-inspired jumpsuit. Now cut off the pants mid-thigh to achieve a fabulous, curvy silhouette of the booty. Hence, you have a romper. A one-piece wonder of the clothing world, rompers are impractical but adorable additions to the fashion industry. Perhaps inspiring our inner child from the days of the onesie, rompers help ladies everywhere feel young again, while simultaneously being an adult.


Wearing rompers can lead to a lot of... interesting... obstacles. Rompers are the only item of clothing that require you to practically undress to use the bathroom. Didn't somebody think of zippers for a removable bottom section?

There's also the fact that rompers can be rather ill-fitting on people who buy them too big or too small. You must go into romper shopping with a Goldilocks mindset. Too big and you look like a sack of (very cute) potatoes. Too small and your romper can accidentally end up as a tampon.

One of my friends gave me complete kudos for attempting this bold fashion choice. "You look great," she said. "Every time I try to wear one it just completely goes up my vagina."

Well, I told her I would tell her what happened. So far, so good...

If you have worn a romper before, chances are you've experienced some of these problems. They do say that beauty is pain... If you are considering making a fashion choice with a romper, please remember that it is vital you feel fabulous at all times. Wear what you want, and rock what you want-- The true road to fashion is to romp around in any style you feel confident in.

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.
