Why Your Appearance Shouldn’t Matter To Others

Why Your Appearance Shouldn’t Matter To Others
LOVE THIS PIC

“Does this color look good on me?” “Do these jeans make me look fat?” “I’m not wearing too much makeup, right?” These are questions that I personally have asked myself, and probably many others have as well. To be honest, I used to care SO much about my appearance. I used to care so much about the brand that I was wearing, how I looked in certain clothes, and how others may have portrayed me. Now, I could care less.

When it comes down to it, who are you really trying to impress? The answer: you shouldn’t be wanting to impress anyone other than yourself. You shouldn’t take other peoples opinions into consideration, because the only persons opinion that matters is your own. So go out there and be who you want to be. You want to wear jeans and a sweater? GO AHEAD. You want to make sure that your makeup is on point and looking flawless? YES YOU GOT IT. You want to wear a crop top and short-shorts? GO FOR IT. You want to wear nothing at all? I mean maybe you should at least wear a little something in the case of public indecency coming up. But, you get the point.

So next time you are about to ask yourself a question that doesn’t involve your own opinion, take a step back and realize that you are your own independent human who can wear or be whatever the hell you want to. I know it may be hard these days because most people just want to fit in and go with the norm. But don’t be afraid to be your own person and do what makes you happy!

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
