For many women, summer means that dreaded time of the year when our thigh sweat sticks to seats pretty much everywhere we go. Shorts have their time and their place- if you're going to the pool or out to a very casual bar. Here are some outfit ideas for when you want to look cute over the summer but are tired of wearing shorts.

1. Jumpsuits.

Buy a solid colored jumpsuit in a comfortable fabric. You can make this casual by wearing it with sandals and a t-shirt under it or you can dress it up by wearing short heels and jewelry.

2. The light-weight pant.

I do not mean khakis or gauchos. These could be white linen pants (if you're brave enough to wear them) or fitted black cotton pants that look great with a t-shirt tucked into them.

3. The maxi-dress.

Giphy

Yes, this is always trending during the summer but think about how when you were younger, you only wanted short dresses. Now is the time to start your collection of long sundresses you can through on over a swimsuit or wear on a cute date.

4. The jeans + heel combo.

Giphy

But make it summer. I always am inclined to compliment someone who is wearing a t-shirt and jeans with stilettos. If you want to really hop on the summer 2019 trends, buy neon colored heels and accessories. I recommend neon green.

5. The silk skirt.

Giphy

This is a fancier option but right now it must be acknowledged. You can find them everywhere from Forever 21 to Topshop right now because this trend is on fire. These often fall at about mid-calf and can be styled with tank tops and sandals to detail a clean and classy summer look.

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.
