Winter is here! And Winter has come in full force with her two friends, Cold and Wind. As you prepare for walking around in the freezing cold, keep in mind these essentials that will bring you the utmost joy.

1.) Lip Balm


Lip balm is wonderful, especially in the winter. During the winter, since the weather is so cold, the wind tends to pick up skin chaps. Keeping a lip balm nearby at all times is very important for the health of your lips. Lip balm will keep them nice and moisturized, while also protecting them from the wind. If you are searching for a quality lip balm, I recommend Burt's Bees or Blistex. Those are two quality lip balms that I know I can depend on to get the job done.

2.) Lip Scrub

Lip scrubs are the best thing to have when your lips are super chapped and you need to get rid of the dead skin. In the winter, I like to use my lip scrub 2-3 times a week depending on how cold it is. Lip scrubs make your lips a smooth, comfortable surface. Meanwhile, chapped lips can make you uncomfortable and self-conscious. My favorite brand for a lip scrub is Lush. Lush makes affordable lip scrubs that contain all natural ingredients. I use the Popcorn flavored lip scrub. It smells delicious and Lush recommends licking off the excess, so it also tastes really good!

3.) Fuzzy Socks

Fuzzy socks are the perfect winter essential! They keep your feet warm and they are really cute.

4.) Hand Moisturizer

Hands usually always face the cold of winter. Luckily, moisturizing regularly will help protect the hands from any serious damage. My favorite moisturizers are from the brands Lush, Bliss, and Body Shop.

5.) Fuzzy Sweater


The perfect piece to wear in the cold weather is obviously a fuzzy sweater. Fuzzy sweaters are so cute and they are the best way to keep warm as you walk around in the cold weather.

6.) Beanies

Beanies are one of the cutest accessories during the winter time. They not only keep your ears warm, but they also are super cute. They can dress down an outfit and they look super comfy.

7.) Scarves


Scarves are an absolute winter essential. They make any outfit really cute. I preferably love infinity scarves. They are so easy to throw on. They keep you warm and make you look so put together.

8.) GlovesGloves are the essential for those snowy and freezing days. They provide your hands with warmth and also are a really cute accessory!

9.) Comfy Pajamas


During the winter, nothing is better than coming home and putting on comfy pajamas. They make the long days doable and the bad days happier. They also make waking up in the morning exciting. Warning: you may not want to get out of bed due to comfort and feeling awesome.

10.) Boots

For snowy days, winter boots are really necessary. They have grip, so it is less likely that you will slip due to ice, slush, or snow! Be safe and look cute with snow boots!

These are my winter essentials! If you have any more essentials that I have missed, feel free to leave them down in the comments!

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.
