Wear Whatever You Want

Unless it's a see-through bra and underwear to the park with children present.

Wear Whatever You Want

Lately, I have been seeing articles floating around Facebook that have to do with telling women (and sometimes men) what to wear and what not to wear. These range from either saying over sized t-shirts and Nike shorts are ugly to wearing "respectable clothing".

Those articles are written to get a reaction out of the people in the title, and most of the time they do. You will most likely see comments that say something along the lines of "I can wear whatever I want!" Or "yeah! Stop wearing that!" While it's nice to see different perspectives, it's not always the best advice to actually follow (unless you REALLY want to).

Here's the thing, you can wear whatever the heck you want to wear. If you want to wear over sized t-shirts and Nike shorts for the rest of your life, DO IT. If you think that's ugly and you want to wear dressy pants and a blouse, DO IT. It really doesn't matter if people say your outfit choices are not good enough, because that person is not you. You do not need the approval of some stranger to wear what you want. Also, if you are the one saying that people should stop wearing something, maybe try and realize everyone is going to have a different sense fashion than you (and that's a-ok).

Now, if you read one of those "Girls, stop wearing __" articles and it really makes you think of your outfit choices, then go ahead and change. The great thing about outfits is that they are changeable. Your outfit choices do not make you a Good or bad person, they make you unique (even if everyone else is wearing it). Wear what makes you feel confident and comfortable, that's the way to live life to the fullest. No one has time for someone else to tell them what to wear.

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.
