Clear Is The New Black

For those of us who NEED a purse on game days.

Clear Is The New Black
Molly Edmondson

Being a freshman, I can't even begin to tell you how excited I've been for Alabama football to finally start! I'd meticulously picked out what "game day outfit" I would wear to each game, and the respective shoes and accessories to coordinate.

Everything was perfect until someone asked if I had gotten my clear purse yet. A clear purse? What in the world was she talking about? My dreams of filling my cute cross-body purse with tickets and makeup for game day were quickly dashed. Luckily there is hope for us!

For those of you that don't know, this is a new policy for games this year. Alabama has stated that no bags will be allowed into the stadium if they do not meet their specific requirements which are as follows; a clear plastic bag that is no larger than 12 x 6 x 12 or a small purse/clutch that is no larger than 4 1/2" by 6 1/2".

It's hard enough to find a regular purse for game day, so here are some options that you can bring with you into Bryant-Denny.

1. The Classic

So this may not the cutest bag, but it is functional! This is the official Alabama bag that the Supestore, Academy, Hibbetts, Walmart and others are selling. Grab it for yourself pretty much anywhere in Tuscaloosa!

2. The Customizable

Now this one is a game changer. On the Jon Hart website, they have multiple shades of red to get you in the spirit! They will even customize it for you with a stamp on the front with your name! I mean if it's not monogrammed, it's not mine am I right?

3. The Clutch

This stylish clutch is available for the low price of $20.99 on Amazon currently. Low price for high fashion? I think yes!

4. The Classic Cross-body

The Flying Fox is a little-known company that is about to become BIG, y'all. Mark my words and hop on these cute bags fast! Perfectly stadium approved with a wide range of colors to boot!

5. The Designer Pick

This is a solid pick for the girls who are just not feeling the clear trend. Being 4.5" by 6.2" means this tiny accessory can go with you anywhere on gameday!

See you ladies sporting your 'Bama approved bags next Saturday! Kent State won't know what hit 'em!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
