Summer style can be tricky sometimes- it's not just about what you wear, it's about how you wear it, whether you'll sweat through it, and what you'll do with it if you randomly decide to take a swim in it. Here are some hot style tips that go beyond the clothes and will keep you looking fresh this summer

1. Sunglasses are summer headbands.

Beach and pool hair is gorgeous for some, but a literal rat’s nest for others (like me). Throw some sunglasses on your head to push back that tangled mess, and you’ll immediately feel more like a sun-kissed beach babe and less like you just stuck your head out of a car window.

2. Shirt-tying is always an option.

Yes, crop tops are in right now, but what about all those handy-dandy long shirts you’ve collected over the years? Tie them in the front and off to one side to transform them into the crop tops you probably now wish they were.


3. Sanuks might be the best decision of your life.

Sandals made of recycled yoga mats and beer cozies not only sound cool, but they’re the comfiest things you’ll ever wear. The bonus is that unlike Crocs, they’re actually cute, too.

4. Waterproof mascara will be your best friend.

I wear mascara literally all the time, whether I’m wearing any other makeup or not. My saving grace on those random days I feel like jumping in a pool is mascara that I know won’t leave me looking like a raccoon when I get out.

5. Fanny packs. That’s all.

Okay, yeah, they may be from your 6th-grade ex-best friend, but those little yarn bracelets you used to wear all the time survive in water and look good in or out of it. Not to mention, they're a perfect way to check your progress on your summer tan.

7. Find your color, and use it.

The sun is shining and it's the time of year to be bold with those pops of color. Find a summer color that speaks to you to so you'll stand out on even the brightest summer days.

Whether you're spending the day at a beach, or just lounging around the house this summer, at least a few of these tips should come in handy. All I have left to say for now is PLEASE don't fall for the Crocs trend this year (or any year).

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
