High heels

Nothing beats having a great pair of shoes, not even five awesome graphic tees or a whole collection of earrings. The ultimate pair of shoes every girl should get is - high heels! It can be as high as 4 inch, or as little as 1 inch, but the whole point of the shoes is to elevate your height, improve your posture, and make you look great.

College must haves (Part 1)

To be honest, college is where teenagers venture into the unknown. We've seen knee high boots go with lace dresses, and some cringe worthy experiments like  - I don't know, shorts with leg warmers?
I'm gonna start 11th grade come January, and because my school is a public school, we wear uniforms, so we can't really dress to our likes lest we break the school rules. Occasionally, we DO cross the line a little, like wearing bracelets, clear nail polish or even earrings, but us students really do chafe under the rules.

10 college must-haves
1. Graphic tees
 Nothing spells teen more than graphic tees.
Every college kid needs'em.Seriously. It's like, the universal symbol for teenagers.




2. Sneakers
There's nothing like a stylish pair of sneakers to get you up and running, especially on Monday mornings.


Reebok. Top Down.
 Vans. Said to be the ultimate skateboarder shoe.

 Nike Air Jordans. Strictly not for girls.
