The whole Kardashian clan is well-known for being entrepreneurs. So it was no surprise that Khloe joined the fam and launched her own denim line. Khloe and business partner Emma Grede cofounded Good American.

The first collection dropped yesterday, October 18th on Nordstrom and the Good American website. What I was particularly excited for with this launch, is the message behind Good American. The brand carries jeans, sizes 0 to 24. Khloe already stated that she doesn't want her line to be called "plus size". She wants the line to be known to fit any and all women. The jeans vary in price from $149-$215. At first look you might be wondering, why so much for plain blue jeans? What makes this line so different is the contour waistbands, stitching, and special fabrications. With 3 different silhouettes, skinny (Good Legs), high-waisted (Good Waist), and boyfriend (Good Cuts). If you struggle finding a precise fit of jean, Emma and Khloe set out to rock your world.

Both women shared their body-positive passions and wanted their line to represent all women. Empowering such women to feel confident and sexy in jeans that fit to their curves without alterations. This launch is a huge step in fashion regarding body image. Another clothing brand, Aerie, stepped up and included curvier women in their ads as well as unedited photos. With brands like Aerie and Good American, they're knocking down barriers and making a statement.

What's pretty cool about their campaign is that they recruited real women and fans instead of models, they sent out a message on social media a few months back and got an overpowering response. Featuring women from all different backgrounds, plus they also didn't edit the photos!

A quote off of the Good American website "Fashion should be made to fit women, not the other way around." I am so ecstatic about this brand and the message they're sending to all generations. Also, who doesn't love a designer jean at a good price?! I will proudly be supporting the Good American brand and (hopefully) purchasing my first pair before they sell out!

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
