Summer means no more heavy sweaters and jackets. Here are 11 things that are always acceptable in the summer no matter what.

1. Hats

No matter what the situation is in the summer, you can throw on a hat and it is totally acceptable. You no longer have to try to make your hair look half-way decent. Hats are your best friend.

2. Bathing Suits

Wearing a bathing suit under your clothes is the best. You are always comfortable and are always ready for a quick tanning trip, or dip in the ocean. Boys can wear them as shorts and no one even notices the difference.

3. Flip Flops

No more heavy boots and sneakers, flip flops are your go-to. Running late? Throwing on your flip flops is so easy and you're ready to leave!

4. Sunglasses

Whether you're using your sunglasses as an accessory on your head or actually using them to shield the sun, wearing a pair in the summer is a must. Now you can get fashionable Croakies and wear your sunglasses around your neck.

5. Tanks & Tees

Throwing on a tank or tee for the summer you know you won't be too cold. They're easy and you can dress them up or down, and be acceptable for the occasion.

6. Dresses

T-shirt dresses are a girl's best friend. When meeting rooms and houses get too hot to stand in the summer, T-shirt dresses are your go to. You're still comfortable yet you still look fashionable and cute.

7. Fanny Packs

A new trend that seemed to come up this past spring break, and now will carry over to the summer is fanny packs. Going on a beach trip? or the an amusement park? Don't forget your fanny pack!

8. Anklets & Toe Rings

It's your legs time to shine. Anklets and toe rings are the perfect accessories to help show off your tan. They make or break every outfit!

9. Boho Headbands

Boho headbands are taking over! They can be worn for every occasion and in many different ways. You can never go wrong with wearing one of these.

10. Bright Nail Polish

No more neutrals! Nail polish can be as bright and shiny as the sun is. The brights make everything more fun!

11. High Waisted Shorts

Girls love high waisted shorts and in the summer, you can wear them anywhere. They are so cute and trendy and can make any outfit complete.

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.

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.
