I really love colored denim but I haven't found colored jeans that aren't the stretchy material. I do have athletic legs and the way the material in these kinds of pants clings to me is just unflattering!! Where can I find colored jeans that are the true denim material???




Hey girlie,

Try the Gap! There are these pink boot cut jeans and these blue boyfriend jeans that could be super cute! It's tough because the colored denim trend normally matches up to the skinny jean/jegging trend, but you can still find the perf cut if you keep an open mind and shop around!

Hi! I am going to Florida for spring break ( like universal and Disney world), I cant figure out what to pack!! Like I know the basics, t-shirts, shorts, and stuff, but I dont want to get cold or hot, so I think I want to bring layers. The thing is, I don't want to take my jacket off and have to lug it around the park all day. I also don't want to tie anything around my waist unless I absolutely have to (I don't know what it is, but have this thing about having stuff around my waist). do you have any suggestions for what I could do about this?? Thank you so much!!!!



Why not pack the layers just to be safe!

You might not have to wear them, but just in case, you'll have them handy.

Then when you're there, you can just check the weather in the morning and dress for the day!

I'm graduating from elementary this year and i need a dress under $40!!! Everything is really high-priced or inappropriate. My mom also wont let me wear small heels like all the other girls are. What are some shoes I could wear instead??? I can't have a long dress either, do you know any good dress stores online?


Hey girl,

Most mall retailers have online shopping options, so check out your favorites! For affordable dresses, Forever21 and any department store would be a good place to start. Here are some posts on cute and affordable dresses to get you started! http://www.girlslife.com/post/2012/01/09/Shop-the-FM12-Cover-Snag-Bella-and-Zendayas-spring-y-ensembles.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/12/13/6-petite-perfect-party-dresses.aspx For shoes, flats are a dressy and cute alternative to heels. Here's a post on some of our favorite shoes, including flats! http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/11/11/11-shoes-we-heart.aspx

First, thanks for reading. I have an issue.
I took the SAT and scored high enough out of 7th graders that I get to go to a camp focused on academics. Issue: it's co-Ed and guys and girls are on the same floor with communal bathrooms. Question: Where are some places I could get appropriates PJs because the ones I have right now are a little revealing/short.? It's really hot here too.
Thanks a TON!!!!!!
~Rebby

 

I suggest you just wear boxers and a tshirt. I bought a bunch of mens boxers and theyre veryyy comfy pjs. Good luck! xoxo kerra

ok so I have this really long brown skirt that goes down to like above my ankels and I wanted to wear it for a long time but I could never do it because I have never worn a skirt in public before and I was afraid that I would look weird but I think i could do it with the right shirt and acssesorys so what do you think would look good with a flowy kinda gypsy skirt? thanks and sorry for the lo-o-ong post
<3




Hey girlie,

You can totally pull this off, if you wear it with confidence! All you have to do is choose the right top/accessories to wear so the skirt doesn't look like too much fabric. Personally, I love wearing maxi skirts (aka skirts that go to your ankle) with flip flops or other thin, strappy sandals. On top, I wear something simple like a solid, sleeveless body suit like this one or tank top tucked in. Keep accessories simple so they don't compete with the skirt - a few thin bangles, short earrings, or a delicate necklace will top it off! Smile

MOD MOD MOD my parents just told me and my brother that were going on a cruise for spring break!!! Laughing obviously ill need swimsuits and shorts and tanks but what are some other things that would be good to pack just to hang out on the ship or also i think you have to dress a little bit nice for dinner so what would be good to wear for that?? Thx!




You will need flip flops, a couple nice evening dresses and shoes to match. I think a nice sundress will probably do the job. You will definitely need a sweater. You would never believe how windy a cruise ship can get when it approached the shore.

hi! i have a really cute crop top that i bought for summer, and it doesn't look good when i wear a tank under it. do you think it would be okay if i wear high waisted shorts with it? im 13 so i dont want to look inappropriate!




I think it is great that you want to look age appropriate. I think that high waisted shorts are a great idea. Also crop tops look super cute as a cover up for your bathing suit.

My family and I are going to New York for spring break (my aunt and uncle live there) and will be doing a lot of tourist-y things. We are going to go to a museum, a Broadway show, and do a lot of shopping. What should I pack to wear? We are flying, so I have to pack small amounts of clothes. I don't really like any of the clothes above. Thanks MOD! You guys are the best!
PS: Could you see if Girl's Life could feature longer shorts? My parents won't let me wear short-shorts, and it makes me (and I'm sure a lot of other girls) feel left out.
THANKS!!!!

 

Hey girl! When is your spring break? If it's at the end of March, you'll likely need a variety of clothes because the weather in NYC can be a bit unpredictable. Check the weather a few days before you leave so that you can get an idea of the temperatures. Your best bet is to pack clothing that can be layered. Take a few pairs of your favorite jeans, a few cute tops, and several sweaters/cardigans. Don't forget comfortable shoes!! You'll be walking a lot, so you'll want shoes that won't cause you pain. If you have TOMS, they are perfect for NYC. Wear a light jacket on the plane so that it doesn't take up room in your suitcase.


 

Thanks for your suggestion--we'll definitely try to use longer shorts! Remember, our outfits are just guides, so you can always change them to make them suit you. We love bermuda shorts because they're super cute and parent-approved!

What is a good natural makeup look for a beginner and a person thT doesn't wanna make Ppl be like Omg ur wearing makeup?? Thanks so muchh!!!




Hey girlie,

Instead of going for full-on foundation, powder, blush/bronzer, and all that cakey stuff, try going with a simple concealer. Just use a few dots to cover up under-eye circles, pimples and blemishes, and other discoloration. Blend well with a makeup sponge or your fingers so it looks even less noticeable. That way, you'll get coverage where you need it, but you won't overwhelm your face with tons of makeup Smile

Hey isyrocks, you could wear a nice dress with tights, a sweater and heels or a nice skirt with a cute shirt, blazer, tights and heels. Be sure you pack underwear, outfits, pajamas, socks, shoes, accessories, makeup, face, skin, and hair products, ipod and ipod charger, laptop and lapotop charger, camera, and any other things you might need. Pack some snacks for the road too. Have fun and hope this helps. Xoxo

MOD MOD MODSmile So I'm having a HUGE move this summer! I live in the Midwest- Great Plains and I'm moving to Miami! I'm not really psyched but I figure I'll try to survive. But I could use some help. I'm sure the culture's a bit different ( or a lot...?) and I was wondering if you had some tips on what makes up fashion, etc. in places like this... Thanx! Smile

 

Hey bright_lights111, miami is really warm so they're probably channeling summer trends. Go for crop tops, bright mini skirts and skinny jeans, gladiator sandals, and denim shorts. Have a safe trip moving and enjoy miami. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Ok so there is this cute guy in my class and he asked me for my number yesterday. I gave it to him and he said "Thanks! Can't wait to talk 2 u!" He had a gf then broke up with her 3 weeks after he dated her. He only dates girls for like 2 weeks 3 top. I don't want it to become weird between us and I DEF don't want to date only for a little. I want a serious relationship, I even told him that! Help!!!

 

Hey girl, well just take it slow. You should definitely talk to him about how you feel. That you're worth more than just a 2 week relationship. And if he is only going to stay your bf for a few weeks, you'd rather just be friends.

MOD! for English class I have to read Pride and Prejudice, but I don't understand it very much. My friend told me that if I read a chapter, then read it on Spark Notes, I'll understand it better. But, I'm not sure if reading Spark Notes would count as cheating. (We're eventually doing a huge project and a test based on the book) Do you think Spark Notes would help?

Hey girl,

I don't think it's cheating if you read the actual book and then read the notes, because you're still reading the actual text. Just don't use SparkNotes as a crutch!

Two of my friend's birthdays are coming up and I was wondering if you could help me pick what to wear Smile :
1- For the first one, the theme is candyland so we have to come dressed as a candy. Which candy should I be, what should I wear while looking cute?
2- The second one is at the beach and the theme is superheroes.
Help? Thanks! Laughing




Hey girlie,

1. What a cute and unique theme! I love it. I'd probably go as a Peppermint Patty (you get to wear silver and dark blue and white, do your makeup all sparkly, etc.) or a Candy Cane, which would be layering white and red. Or a lollipop - wear white tights and white shoes, then a brightly colored tutu and a top to match the tutu. Smile

2. As for superheroes, I'd keep it standard so people know who you are - Batman, Superman or Wonder Woman!
