We've all seen them.
The girls in Uggs, sipping their pumpkin lattes from Starbucks while they text their friends. My sister inspired me to write to you all about what it means to be a basic white girl. Have you ever wondered if you're a basic white girl (BWG)? Here are 10 signs that you, or someone you know, might be basic.
1. iPhones
How else are you supposed to communicate? Duh.
2. Uggs
The BWG uniform consists of Uggs, complete with leggings and a Victoria's Secret "Pink" sweatshirt.
3. Starbucks
The first two may not apply to me, but even I'm guilty of this one. I love a good frappe.
4. Monograms. Monograms everywhere
Just in case you wanted everyone in the world to know your initials, you put it on your shirt, your phone case, your coffee cup, and even your bedding.
Also, why do people put their last initial in the middle?
5. You own something from Jack Rogers, Vineyard Vines, Lily Pulitzer or Northface.
Bonus points? All four.
6. French tip nails
In case you want to Instagram yourself holding your Starbucks.
7. Duck lips
'Nuff said.
8. Instagram posts include inspirational quotes
Pictures of food, cats, duck lips, and coffee just must not inspire me as much as it does you.
9. You have a Pinterest board for your dream house, dream wedding, and dream closet.
Guilty as charged.
10. You've used the words "totes," TBH," "adorbs," "literally can't even," etc.
I actually heard my grandpa use one of these once.
If you or someone you know fits these descriptions, you might be basic. That's ok! Embrace your Starbucks-filled self, take a selfie, and know that all those other girls are totes just jealous!
