"Sparkles...

are a girl's best friend!" -GLAMOUR Magazine

To some girls, outfits aren't complete without a little sparkle. Sequins, gemstones, and glitter can provide that extra "pazazz" that everyone is looking for! However, to others, sparkles can be a little much. Over-done gleam can be percieved as tacky or gawdy. Therefore, many women are afraid to add a little sparkle to their daily outfits.

In my opinion, every woman should take the opportunity to really shine! The concept of adding sequins, glitter, or gemstones should be looked at with a different perspective. For example, in the natural environment some of the most beautiful objects have been known to shine. Natural metals, diamonds, and stars have become famous for their unique and beautiful luster. These specific elements are also products of millions and millions of hard work! Stars, for example, take well over a million years for a gas cloud to condense into a new star. After the star has been created, it is given the beautiful opportunity to display it's sparkle for the world to see!

So now, I'm sure you're wondering what this had to do with shiny dresses or tops! Well, in my personal opinion, each individual has been wonderfully and uniquely made. Like the star, it takes a while for a person to be created. Which means that when the opportunity arises, an individual should embrace their features and add a little sparkle! I believe that every girl should be allowed to jazz up their daily lives with some sequins, or gems, or glitter! Young ladies should be proud of who they are and not afraid to enhance their look with a little sheen. Believe in yourself and seize your opportunity to shine!

If you're looking for some inspiration for embracing your own "sparkle", Joanna Pacitti's "Watch Me Shine" always makes me feel a little "brighter"! Here's the lyrics!

"I'm not
Your average type
Of girl
I'm gonna show
The world
The strength in me
That sometimes they can't see
I'm about to
Switch my style
And soon things may get wild
But I will prove
I can conquer anything

So from my head to toe
I'm taking full control
I'll make it on my own
This time
(Better watch me shine)

CHORUS:
Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won't stop
Till I'm on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what's mine
Better check that
I'm about to upset
And I'm hot now
So you better step back
I'm taking over
So watch me shine
"

In lighter news: Today I had a Spanish test. Our first Spanish test for the new semester and it was harddddd! Honestly, I've never been one that really had to worry about her grades; especially in Spanish. Well, not today! I'm sure that when our Spanish teacher sees my grade she'll be very... unhappy. Considering I am Spanish Club President. But you know, it's okay. Everyone has a bad grade every-once-in-a-while. I won't let it get me down. However, today is a good day because Chandler David Jones didn't have to work. That means he can devote the majority of his day talking to me! Anyway, I'm off to study; so my next Spanish test will hopefully be better!

Adios amigos!
xoxo
