Top 10 Spring Things

Spring may have come late to Denver, but for a few months we get to enjoy the beautiful weather and everything else that comes with this amazing season. Here are some tips to get the most out of your wardrobe

1. Button-down shirts over sundresses

Spring is still a little chilly (hello snow on the ground here in Denver!), so it's not quite sundress season. If you're like me and are itching to break out sundresses, layer with an open button down in a complementing color, and you'll have a perfectly spring-appropriate look.

2. Chacos

My go-to shoe. You can wear them hiking, rafting, shopping, and hanging out.

3. Neon pink lipstick

Nothing says spring like a neon lip to brighten those winter blues.

4. Glow

Whether it's natural or done with makeup, a glow is an essential spring accessory.

5. Bodysuits

Like a swimsuit but acceptable for everyday wear. Can be worn with shorts, jeans, skirts, alone if you're really daring....

6. Mantra Bands

Because who doesn't want a motivational and chic bracelet to add to your arm party?

7. Cut-outs

In dresses, in swimsuits, in shirts, in leggings. You name it, I want it.

8. Sun protection

So important! Sunscreen on the face, neck and ears every day to retain soft, protected skin. Add a layer to your body if you're spending extra time in the sun. My recommendation? Download the EPA's app "EPA UV Index" to see how strong the UV rays are in your area, as well as tips to protect yourself from harmful rays.

9. Natural hair texture

Go natural! Spring is the ideal time to let it go. If your hair is curly, add a little leave in conditioner and argan oil for shine, and you're ready to go. For girls with straight hair, apply some sleek oil to tame frizzies.

10. Hydration

Hydration is key! Bring a chic water bottle decked out with stickers that represent you to take everywhere. You'll be more motivated to drink throughout the day, keeping you hydrated and healthy. (See number four for a good reason to hydrate.)

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
