Girls are amazing creatures. Somehow they're able to get up every morning, put on a full face of makeup, do their hair, throw on a perfectly constructed outfit and go about their day without so much as their mascara running. Unfortunately, not all of us females are on the same wavelength when it comes to be flawless. For my perfectly imperfect ladies, here are 10 things you'll understand if you're bad at being a girl:

*Disclaimer: this article is supposed to resonate with girls who don't feel as put together as their female counterparts. It is in no way meant to insinuate that girls are shallow or that the only thing a girl has to offer society is her looks.*

1. Your hair and makeup is never done.

Whether it's because you woke up 10 minutes before class or because you simply lacked the will to try, you somehow always end up fresh faced and in a ponytail.

2. You don't really understand how to do makeup for that matter.

You see perfectly contoured faces and flawless winged eyeliner everywhere you go, but no matter how many YouTube tutorials you watch you just can't get the hang of it. Also, you don't want to drop the hundreds of dollars on every type of makeup needed to create the perfect look. (I mean why do I need foundation AND concealer? Honestly.)

3. You never have your outfits picked out.

Leggings and a sweatshirt are your best friends.

4. When you do decide to dress up and spend time on your hair and makeup, you blow everyone's minds.

On the rare occasions that you decide to go from a potato to a low key hottie, you get enough attention and compliments to get you through the year. At least you know you can be hot if you want to.

5. You barely own any shoes.

All your girlfriends are trying to decide which pair of heels best matches their outfit for the party you're headed out to, but you're already ready to go because you only have one pair.

6. Your friends are always begging you to let them do your hair and makeup.

Because you could be so pretty if you just let them contour your face and wrestle your hair into some sort of updo.

7. You hate trying on clothes.

Seriously, you'd rather buy something, bring it home and try it on, and then return it than take the time to try it on in the store.

8. Your nails are never done.

Your fingernail and toenail polish always goes by the wayside.

9. You buy your underwear from Target instead of Victoria's Secret.

Because it's cheaper and let's face it, guys aren't going to know the difference anyway.

10. Your bra and underwear never matches ... like ever.

No excuse for this, just bad planning.

Maybe one day we'll get ourselves together but for now let's just enjoy our sweatpants.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
