  • Calling all book babes: Pretty book crafts to do this weekend
With a hectic school sched it’s easy for your desk to become a catchall for  your cleats and clarinet. Not anymore, girl. It’s time to ditch the clutter and cut out the chaos. A clear workspace means less stress and less time searching for your calculator.
 
Here are some fab tips to help you get organized (and stay that way!). Plus, we’re giving away some pretty pens!

Pitch some pens
Get rid of stuff you don’t need. Go through you pens, pencils, markers, etc. and toss anything that doesn’t work. Keep your faves in a pretty mug or pencil holder.

See ya sticky notes
Your desk will look much neater sans sticky notes. Instead, hang a bulletin board behind your desk to tack up important reminders. Keep a calendar handy to jot down important dates.

Be ready for the random
Have one folder for each class, and store important papers in it. Got some random stuff that’s too vital to toss? Keep a box, file or magazine holder handy to store ’em. At the end of every week or so, go through it and weed out what’s essential and get rid of the rest.

Feel the feng shui
There’s nothing wrong with trying to bring a little positive energy to your desk. For wisdom, neatly stack your books (school or just some favorites) in far left-hand corner. For wealth and prosperity, place a plant in that corner. Make sure you keep it alive and healthy, though. Dead plants don’t bring any energy!

Brighten Up
Yellow and orange are two hues that bring good vibes to your work area. Hang a pretty (but not too distracting) poster in pretty citrus hues nearby.

Ive started to like vintage clothing but not overboard! anyway i want to know some good vintage stores or types of clothing that are vintage, btw i live in canada so we might not have the exact same stores at you do!! thanks a bunch!




Forever 21 has a lot of Vintage-y looks, also thrift shops, consignment shops, and hand-me-downs are all considered Vintage! Taking something old, wearing it, and turning into your own ...now that's style!

***MOD***
My 2 best friends live a block away from eachother and they go to movies, go shopping, and have sleepovers-usually without me! They include me a lot but most of the time they don't even think to ask me! Last week I asked them if they wanted to sleepover at my house and their parents said they couldn't but I found out later that they had a sleepover without me that night! During the summer they had sleepovers every single night and didn't invite me! I always have to be the one who brings up sleepovers or hanging out. In school they have lots of classes together and I only see them at lunch. They think that I don't know that they exclude me. What should I do?
Thanks! Sorry this is so long!




No problem! That's hard when it's 3 friends together. Usually one person gets left out, it's normal. If they aren't making an effort then you shouldn't have to either. I think it's great if you still want to be friends, but try making plans with different friends who have time to hang out! You deserve friends who will make time for you!

Hey babe,

It sounds like it would look really cute with skinny jeans and maybe a jacket or a cardigan if you're not allowed to show you arms.
