7 Summer Fashion Pieces You Need This Season

Between lookbooks and fashion blogs, there are so many summer trends becoming more and more popular. From all white head-to-toe looks to fun unexpected fabrics, like suede, being brought into summertime, there's a lot to take in. I've composed a list of my personal seven top summer must-haves, and a majority of these can be transitioned into fall. Enjoy!

1. Sleeveless knit dress.

Knits in the summer? Yes. As long as it's not too heavy of a knit, you'll be fine. Pair with metallic accessories and you're done. Can it be transitioned into fall: Yes.

2. Denim skirt.

No, not those distressed denim skirts from middle school. Shapes like this one in the photo above create a polished, yet casual feel. Look for styles that flatter your shape and that aren't so stiff. Can it be transitioned into fall: Heck, yeah.

3. Lace kimono.

Lace can provide a light, feminine look, if that's what you're going for. But it can also be edgy like the look above. Look for pieces with a little something extra like velvet or beading. Can it be transitioned into fall: Yes.

4. Off-the shoulder top.

Classic and summer-y. The off-the-shoulder look has been around for decades and it doesn't seem to be going anywhere (yay). it can be dressed up with a pencil skirt and heels, or dressed down with jeans as you see here. Can it be transitioned into fall: Yes.

5. Pom-pom sandals.

This is my new favorite thing. Pom-pom sandals add such a bold pop of color to a simple outfit! They're not for everyone but they're definitely a statement piece. If you're not down to spend around $100 for these babies there are plenty of DIY tutorials online. Can it be transitioned into fall: Probably not.

6. Metallic belt.

This is my favorite way to break up a monochromatic outfit. A little metallic goes a long way and a belt is the perfect way to make a statement and to create shape. Can it be transitioned into fall: Yes.

7. Baseball T-shirt dress.

T-shirt dresses have truly blown up this season. I struggle finding one that doesn't look like a mumu on me so the type that I steer towards have an athletic feel. The baseball-style sleeves make it clear that this is not what I wore to bed last night. Can it be transitioned into fall: Yes.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
