Top 10 Spring Things

Spring may have come late to Denver, but for a few months we get to enjoy the beautiful weather and everything else that comes with this amazing season. Here are some tips to get the most out of your wardrobe

1. Button-down shirts over sundresses

Spring is still a little chilly (hello snow on the ground here in Denver!), so it's not quite sundress season. If you're like me and are itching to break out sundresses, layer with an open button down in a complementing color, and you'll have a perfectly spring-appropriate look.

2. Chacos

My go-to shoe. You can wear them hiking, rafting, shopping, and hanging out.

3. Neon pink lipstick

Nothing says spring like a neon lip to brighten those winter blues.

4. Glow

Whether it's natural or done with makeup, a glow is an essential spring accessory.

5. Bodysuits

Like a swimsuit but acceptable for everyday wear. Can be worn with shorts, jeans, skirts, alone if you're really daring....

6. Mantra Bands

Because who doesn't want a motivational and chic bracelet to add to your arm party?

7. Cut-outs

In dresses, in swimsuits, in shirts, in leggings. You name it, I want it.

8. Sun protection

So important! Sunscreen on the face, neck and ears every day to retain soft, protected skin. Add a layer to your body if you're spending extra time in the sun. My recommendation? Download the EPA's app "EPA UV Index" to see how strong the UV rays are in your area, as well as tips to protect yourself from harmful rays.

9. Natural hair texture

Go natural! Spring is the ideal time to let it go. If your hair is curly, add a little leave in conditioner and argan oil for shine, and you're ready to go. For girls with straight hair, apply some sleek oil to tame frizzies.

10. Hydration

Hydration is key! Bring a chic water bottle decked out with stickers that represent you to take everywhere. You'll be more motivated to drink throughout the day, keeping you hydrated and healthy. (See number four for a good reason to hydrate.)

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.
