Stay Cute 'n' Cool on the Hottest of Days

 

Check these out, too...

  • Get over your summer crush in a snap
  • 13 songs to shake the winter blahs

  • 16 fun in the sun summertime dates
  • Book series you've gotta start this summer
Feelin’ the heat? Now’s the time to channel the chill and make the dog days more bearable. Get ready to up the ice factor on your afternoons—now! 

Make a Splash
Just add water! Have a blast by calling up some buds and breaking out your old Super Soaker or Slip N Slide. Hand out joke awards (Muddiest Hair, Most Dry, etc.) and down some ice cream when you’re done. Want something more low-key? Blend up some smoothies and kick your feet in a backyard kiddie pool.

Chill in the Shade
Lemonade and ice pops are both summer musts. Cue the mash-up. Fill teeny Dixie cups 3/4 of the way with your fave lemonade (we like strawberry!). Cover the cups with tin foil and stick a popsicle sticks in each one. Freeze, and nosh them picnic-style under a tree.

Ditch the Denim
On the hottest of days thick jeans just won't do. Cast aside your cut-offs for a moment don a jaunty dress and huge fedora. Keep a foldable fan handy and create your own breeze. See? You can have killer style, even when it’s smolderin’. Stash your sunscreen in the fridge for a quick cool down before you hit the town.
 

Floral Daze Silk Dress, $28, forever21.com

Soak Those Tootsies
Splashing your peds in a mint soakaroo sends a chill throughout your entire bod. Fill a bucket or the tub with cool water and toss a few bath fizzies in. Hang out and take in the icy effect. Drink some cucumber water when you’re hanging out to up the spa feel. 
 

Foot Soldier Tea Tree Mint Foot Soak, $21, amazon.com

Book It
Need AC stat? We've got a way to make your local library (they're always chilly!) way more fun. Create a silent scavenger hunt with your girlies. Create clues (like find a novel about a teen model, search for a book printed before 1924, etc.) and pass them out to the crew. You MUST do this quietly--no running and no bugging the librarian. At the end, check out few new reads and crack 'em open.

I have a really bad habbit of bitting
my nails. I bite them all the time. I have been
bitting them ever since I was little it is soo hard to
stop bitting them.Do you know any tips to stop bitting them????
thanks =)




Hey girl, it's all about breaking the habit. Next time you go to the store, look for a nail polish you can apply on those nails — there are some out there that will make your nails taste awful so you'll be less likely to bite them. I know for me (I have a habit of picking my nails) having polish on helps me leave them alone too because I don't want to ruin the color. xoxo
