Why I Only Wear Bralettes

It's time to throw away your regular old bras.

Why I Only Wear Bralettes

I haven’t worn a “real” bra in over six months. I've made the wonderful switch to wearing bralettes.

Bras are known for being annoying. We have all discussed the feeling when you come home from a long day at work and clipping off your bra.

I no longer have this yearning during the day. Bralettes are the most comfortable bras that have ever been invented. Plus, they are even cuter than the old regular ones!

With those old bras, you are always worrying about the straps showing and worried about people seeing it through your shirt. But with bralettes, none of this is a problem.

You no longer have to worry about what type of bra to wear with different types of shirts. You can throw the paperclip tricks out of the window and stop worrying in the morning if your bra is showing because now, you will want people to see your bra. Bralettes become an extension of your outfit. You want people to see them. Some of them are so trendy that you don’t even need to wear a shirt with them.

You no longer have to hide the $50 bra you bought at Victoria’s Secret. Bralettes are cheaper than their predecessors. I got all of my bralettes for under $15. This allows for that saved money to go into buying all different variations in bralettes to go with every outfit.

With regular bras, you have a drawer filled with bras, but you only wear the two that actually fit and are somewhat comfortable. With bralettes, they all fit like a glove and are extremely comfortable. So you may still have a few faves, but you will definitely be wearing the ones at the back of your drawer more often.

You are still gaining all the things you were looking for in a bra, but choosing bralettes makes it even more comfortable and cuter. There are all different types, and I am sure you will be able to find the one for you. So now when you get back home from work, you won’t have the need to rip your bra off the second you get in the door (though you still might). You can keep your bralette on and relax.

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.
