The go-to pants

Leggings are the must have item in any girls closet. Whether they're a print design, a vibrant solid color, or just plain old black, you must have a pair. 

Let's get some things straight though... Not everyone is fit to wear leggings. Since leggings are so tight on your body you need to make sure you look good in them before you go out because everything is noticeable, and I mean EVERYTHING! One of the biggest mistakes can be wearing a thong with your black, almost see through, leggings. It looks very tacky when you can tell you're wearing it so, for the good of everyone, check out your butt before leaving the house! Other than that, got for it and work those leggings. 

A diamond isn't even a girls best friend anymore, it's a pair of leggings!

But first... let me take a célfie

      
With all these name brands that the majority of the population cannot afford, someone was bound to make a joke of them. Many stores and boutiques have been making shirts, beanies, and sweatshirts with different words and sayings to, in a way, mock the brands. Even models for the expensive brands have been wearing these items. I personally love them and think they are very cute and stylish. You can wear them with any bottoms like jeans, shorts, skirts, skorts, or leggings!

Some of the popular sayings that appear on these items are:
  CÉLINA GOMEZ
  CÉLINE PARIS
  AIN'T YVES WITHOUT SAINT
  BURRRR SO ICEY!
  COCO MADE ME POOR
  CÉLFIE
  HOMIÊS
  COCO MADE ME DO IT

Making a statement

Statement necklaces are in now. Everybody wants them but not everyone knows how to match them with the right outfit.
       

Here are some tips on how to style a statement necklace:
1. The statement necklace is what you must focus on. You need to dress yourself according to the necklace.
2. Don't be afraid to wear large statement necklaces.
3. Don't wear very small necklaces because then, are you really making a statement?
4. Don't get tacky and wear statement necklaces that look like your grandmas pendant pillow threw up on your neck.
5. And last but not least, get a little wild with your necklaces. Don't stick to the same old silver and gold colors that everyone is used to. Liven up your outfit with the necklace!

The skort

We've all seen this new trend. Whether a friend put up a picture on Twitter or a store put a picture of it on Instagram. It's called the skort. When I was smaller we used to wear skorts to P.E. and they were horrid. Now people have reinvented the disaster that was the skort and turned it into a super cute and trendy piece. The new skort comes in all colors and is available at almost any women's store and boutique. The skort has a sort of line running diagonally through the middle which shows that it is both a pair of shorts and a skirt. The bottom of it is jagged, which makes it an eye catching piece. The skort even has pockets! You must be careful what shirt you pair this with. It goes with many different types of tops but you must make it work! I think this is a great go-to item that you can wear to a million different events. For example, a lunch date, a party with friends, a night out on the town, and even a family get together. Now go on and get this fabulous item!

Perfect style, perfect body, and perfect hair equals a perfect girl.

Whether it's the old Kylie Jenner or the new Kylie Jenner, everyone loves her. How can you not love a girl with such a great sense of style?
                          

     Her looks have always been consistent. She likes to wear black, white, and mostly dark colors... from what we see on her Instagram and Twitter pages at least. Her clothes make a statement, always leaving a good mark.
     What does she do to get such a great body? I mean, look at her! Is it a good metabolism? Does she eat healthy and work out? Or maybe it just runs in the Kardashian/Jenner genes. She needs to share her tips with everyone!
     Kylie has started a new trend with her hair. It's short with an ombré and it looks fabulous! In my opinion, the short hair suits her better than her long hair did. I hope she keeps the short do, but hopefully she doesn't go too wild and pull a Miley on us!
