My two loves are make up and perfume. There is a scent of perfume for anyone whether it be floral, sweet, or maybe musky. So do not be discouraged if you feel like you can never find a scent. For me though, I love all kinds of perfume. Like make up, you cannot just have one eyeshadow palette. No, you must have several eyeshadow palettes in order to have several color choices. So I am going to give you my top ten fragrances.

1. Pink Sugar by Aquolina-

Price: $17.24 from Fragrance Net

This fragrance is my number one fragrance of all time! It is a nice sweet scent that will have people coming up to smell you. I mean it you literally will have people coming up to smell you. When wearing this I am constantly told I smell like cotton candy. Who does not want to smell like cotton candy? No one ever.

2. Decadence by Marc Jacobs-

Price: $71.99 from Fragrance Net

Here is another awesome fragrance. This fragrance is another favorite of mine because well people always ask me what I am wearing. I have had guys even stop me to ask what I am wearing because they want to get it for their girlfriends. This scent is sweet and sexy. The perfect scent for going out on the weekend. A little goes a long way. I was obsessed with this scent so when I got it the first time I was so excited.

3. Black Opium by YSL-

Price: $115.00 from Sephora

Another great scent especially for fall is Black Opium is my fall and winter signature scent. I got this for Christmas 2015 as a gift, and I have been obsessed ever since. Please go check it out you will love it too. It is a little sweet but very subtle. It was extremely popular during Christmas while I was working as a fragrance vendor for Jimmy Choo. I watched them sell out in stores of it because it was so popular during Christmas. There is also an eau de toilette if you are not a fan of parfum. This way people who do not like strong scents can wear it also.

4. Prada Candy Kiss by Prada-

Price: $118.00 at Sephora

Is a nice fresh scent which I adore! Do you ever just want a nice light scent to wear out on a date or to a professional meeting? Well this is a nice choice! It is lighter than the others and not as sweet. It is very fresh and clean. If you don't want a super sweet or strong scent then this scent is right for you.

5. Alien by Thierry Mugler-

Price: $71.99 from Fragrance Net

This is a popular scent for college girls. This scent is different from all the others. It is so unique and lovely like I cannot describe it. This is another pretty sexy scent. It is sweet because the amber and vanilla in it, but not like Pink Sugar. Making it the perfect in between scent.

Now to everyone shopping for perfume every perfume smells different on each person due to body chemistry. So try it on and wear it around the mall while you shop. I suggest not to overload your system and try too many. If you smell to many you will get a head ache and be confused, and I as a fragrance vendor cannot then stop the confusion no matter how hard I try. So please do not smell 60 perfumes because you will sooner or later be so frustrated you will just walk away. Come in and say to a vendor or salesperson I am wanting to smell some sweet scents I have heard about this and that. If you do that you will avoid wasting time.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
