To The Entire World: Stop Telling Women How To Dress

If you're offended by how short a girl's shorts are, remember that it's 90 degrees outside with 100% humidity.

I'm not really sure why this is even a discussion anymore, to be quite honest.

Summer is such a controversial time when it comes to women's appearances. It's usually pretty hot out and a lot of women will choose to wear crop tops, shorts, sundresses, tank tops, and even swimsuits.

Shocking, I know.

However, your opinions do not change the fact that it's 90 degrees outside with 100% humidity and there's not a single cloud in the sky. I can't feel sorry if you're offended by how short a girl's shorts are.

It does happen where a woman does not have the legs of a Victoria's Secret model and it is, in fact, possible for her to still be comfortable wearing short shorts. Most women don't have a toned stomach like the Instagram models selling detox teas, but most women still might want to wear a crop top.

Maybe you don't think it's flattering, but if she does, that's all that matters.

Obviously, everyone has different views on swimsuits, I get that and I've seen it plastered all over social media. What I don't get is why anyone feels so entitled that they could tell a woman what kind of swimsuit to wear. I

t does not matter if you are 200 pounds and chose to wear a bikini or 100 pounds and chose to wear a one piece. Do you, girl. Here's the killer for all you haters out there - we're going to post whatever we want on Instagram.

There, I said it.

So, here's the deal, you can't pretend to be alright with women wear things in public and not be alright with it being posted on social media. I promise you my boyfriend does not love me any less because I go to the beach in a bikini. That girl with the skimpy shorts on your newsfeed, I'm sure her boyfriend's mother loves her to death. We aren't loved because of what we wear, we are loved because of the people we are inside.

At the end of the day if you find yourself uncomfortable with what a girl posts online, you can unfollow her and you can block her, but you most definitely cannot tell her what to do.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
