Summer is a season, no matter where you are, that everyone enjoys. For students, it's three months of not having to worry about school. For families, it's the perfect time to take family vacations and spend quality time with those you love. For the fashionista out there, it's the best time to showcase the best fashion of year.

Each season offers different style and statements that become all the rave for a while; summertime is no different. It brings the best fashionable, flowy, and fun outfits for people all season long. But no outfit is complete without its accessories! Accessories are what complete an outfit, whether it's jewelry, purses, hats, or sunglasses.

For the perfect summertime outfit, accessories are a necessity! This summer, there are two major trends that are popular in accessories: purses and sunglasses. Both of these accessories, just like any other, can make any outfit complete.

Here are 10 trends of purses and sunglasses to look out for this summer.

1. The net bag

Typically, this bag is seen as a beach bag only, but that is not the case anymore. This is a great bag to add to your outfit to make it feel like you're by the beach, even when you're not!

2. Oversized bags

The oversized tote became a huge phenomenon through brands like Louis Vuitton in the early 2000s, and now it's back! These bags are perfect for a quick weekend trip or for storing all the necessities us girls need on a regular basis.

3. PVC handbags

PVC has become a major trend in not only apparel but handbags as well. This trend may have become a fashion statement, but it has also helped with safety, as well. Due to concert shootings, some arenas have required a maximum bag size people are allowed to bring it as well as being able to see what people are carrying as a safety precaution. Why not make your see-through bag as trendy as you can!?

4. Circular handbags

Circular handbags are becoming one of the most popular trends this season. This trend can be traced back to one of its first influencers, Chloe. The Chloe bag became a popular bag that added circular embellishments and handles to its bags. This small change caused many designers to begin to incorporate this trend. Now it can be seen anywhere!

5. Pastel bags

Pastels are yet another trend in apparel for the summer, which means it has also found its place in the handbag industry.

6. Large cat eye glasses

Cat-eyed sunglasses are making its appearance in many different forms this summer, oversized being one of them. This trend makes an outfit pop by being bold and trendy.

7. Retro cat eye

Another form of the cat-eye sunglasses that are making its mark on summer 2018 is the retro cat-eye. These are most notably seen worn from supermodels Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid. More of a fashion statement than practical, this trend is still a great one!

8. Colored lenses

Color-coordinate your outfit with your sunglasses! Colored lenses are another major trend this summer. Feeling like an all-red outfit? Throw a pair of red colored lenses on to complete the look!

9. Printed frames

Printed sunglasses are great addition to your sunglass collection for the summer. They offer a fun, different style to complete your summer outift!

10. Embellished frames

If you are trying to make an extreme statement this summer, embellished frames are the way to go. This is a bold statement to rock and show everyone who's boss!

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
