Summer is finally here and we're all praising the Lord! With the heat and humidity of the season rapidly approaching, it's time to figure out what you'll be doing until fall semester starts. Other than the sun and sand, this list is full of hot items for this summer.

1. Movie - "Finding Dory"

I don't think there is a single person on Earth who hasn't been waiting for this movie.

2. TV Show - "The Bachelorette"

We all know Ben did JoJo wrong, and I don't know about you guys, but I am so flippin' excited for her to find the man of her dreams! Here's to living vicariously through JoJo and drooling over the guys all summer.

3. Song - "Can't Stop the Feeling" by Justin Timberlake

If this song isn't blasting by the pool, there's something wrong. Once again, JT's got it going on.

4. Scent - Bath & Body Works Flashback Fragrances

Everyone's going to smell like a Country Apple or Cucumber Melon this summer.

5. Drink - Starbucks Refreshers with Coconut Water

Stay hydrated in style with these fizzy goodies! Even if you're in your backyard, you'll feel like you're in Turks and Caicos sipping coconut water this summer. (Plus, Chegg has been sending these for free with textbooks this summer. #winning)

6. Food - Ridiculously Amazing Salads

Salads are the food of the summer! *in a Bubba Blue voice* There's strawberry salads, Mason Jar salads, apple pecan salads, taco salads, Zenzation Zalads, BLT salads, shrimp salads, kale salads, seaweed salads...

7. Shoes - Lace-Up Sandals

Instead of lacing up your favorite pair of Converse this summer, lace up some super cute sandals instead!

8. Dress - Swing Dress

Swing dresses look awesome on every body type, so there's no need to panic about the fit! They're easy, breezy, and beautiful.

9. Swimsuit - High-Waisted Bottoms with Halter Bikini Top

We're throwing it back in the swimsuit department this summer to the 50s with halter tops and high-waisted bottoms. Not only are these suits slimming and supportive, they're absolutely adorable!



10. Cover-Up - Oversized T-Shirt

Why pay for a fancy and uncomfortable cover-up when you could rock an oversized tee like this Harbour Traditions shirt? Baggy tees are way more comfortable, plus, you can wear them with leggings on a lazy day.

11. Handbag - Crossbody Fringe Bag

Get in touch with your inner hippie with these cute purses.

12. Accessory - Floppy Hat

Classy ladies wear floppy hats, and you, my friend, are a classy lady.

13. Sunglasses - Metallic Aviators

Single-color metallic shades are to die for in this heat wave.

14. Jewelry - Tassel Necklace

There's no hassle to get this tassel.

15. Day-Trip - Hitting the River

Whether you're white-water rafting, tubing or kayaking, making a trip down to the river with your friends is an awesome way to make memories this summer.


16. Effortless Beauty - Champagne Shadow and Rose Gold Lips

Relax your look with shimmery shadows and glossy lips while you chill out in the heat.

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.

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.
