49 Days of Fun!

Hey! Schools out, the sun is shining and summer has officially started. While we just love to laze around and tan all day, we know we have to actually do things. Read our list and find out what!

BUCKET LIST: Things to do before summer is over.

1. Do something we’re TERRIFIED of doing. Whether its just seeing Saw or going on a huge roller coaster (Kingda Ka, anyone?) we’re so gonna do something scary!

2.Have an all-girls day. We’re so ready to have the whole spa/movie/sleepover day!

3.Go water skiing.

Readers choice: Colorblock: “…Pretty sure I’m one of the few in Kansas rocking the color-blocking trend, lol! …- http://asimplelifeoffashion.wordpress.com/ We found out she LOVED this adorable ASOS dress and published it below:

Diva- To say you love big sunglasses and any statement piece is an understatement. You love dressing up- so try this makeup kit by PINK to have your face dramatic as your clothes…just, please, DO NOT make them both diva-esque!

Fashionable:  If you’re obsessed with Harper’s Bazaar, love setting trends, and watch the red carpet fashion more than the award show, you are definitely one fashionable girl!  We are too, and LOVE a great deal! Check out Bloomingdales-they’re having a huge sale- but only ‘til March 18!

Girly-girl: If your closet is just like Elle Woods’s from Legally Blonde, you are one girly- girl! To make your lips as girly as the rest of you- try this lip-gloss from Victoria’s Secret.

Low-key- Dress up? Please! Sweatpants and sweaters are more like it! To chic it up- try this sweater (Urban Outfitters)

Nice- No crop tops and shorty shorts here! If you have a nice style, you’re a  G-rated dresser. Try wearing these super comfy Abercrombie sweats!

Old-fashioned: Much like Vintage (see below) girls, you were born in another era. Whether it’s the ‘50s or the ‘80s, check out consignment stores. Sounds weird, but great clothes are found there!

Pretty: This style is a mix between Girly girl, Nice, and Classic. If you heart- well- pretty clothes…wear this perfectly pink blush from Sephora!

Tough: Leather jackets, studs and ripped jeans are the epitome of this style. To tough it out, try this leather jacket from Nordstroms!
