It's Ok.........

This weekend, the husband and I were on our way to Edisto Island and read my newest issue of Glamour magazine during the drive.  You will find in most issues the "It's Ok....." list, which proceeds to go through a list of things that assure women are ok to do, believe or partake in.  I decided that I wanted to start my "It's ok" list......so here goes.  :)

It's Ok......


  • To wear false eyelashes "just because"
  • To not want kids until your mid thirties and because you are a wee bit selfish of your time to yourself
  • If you only accept Darius Rucker as the lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish and refuse to listen to his music now
  • To add more sugar to your already flavored coffee and creamer
  • If you wear a matching outfit to work out......and it's pink
  • If you want to be one of the first people to wear or carry a designer outfit or handbag
  • To not like to cook, but want a super cute apron
  • To think that Vera Bradley looks like it was meant for your grandmother
  • To believe in total coverage make-up (why the bare coverage stuff?)
  • To sing at the top of your lungs when you are home alone
  • To love a celebs haircut and totally copy it (i.e. Victoria Beckham)
  • To act 15 years old and watch the new 90210, Gossip Girl, Hellcats and Pretty Little Liars
  • To love being over the top girlie and not apologizing for it
  • If you think females are not meant to be sports broadcasters (they just seem awkward)
  • To think tailgating not only includes football, friends, food and drinks, but also cute shoes, dresses, hats and pearls
  • To despise the Gamecocks
  • To want to be a total Blonde (we have more fun anyways!!!)
  • To have a few celeb crushes (Ahem, Bradley Cooper)
  • To think of your dogs as your children
  • To choose who you do and don't want to be friends with (I'm not in high school anymore)
  • To be a strong woman and not take any BS
  • To be a successful female in a mostly male career field
  • To break it down once (or maybe more) at Market Street Saloon in Charleston
  • To have the utmost respect for Miss America
  • To be obessed with reality tv and watch every Real Housewife, Bethenney, etc.
  • To let a beautiful dance make you cry
  • To cry not because something is wrong, but just because you need to (it's like a cleansing)
  • To believe in true love
  • To have best friends that can be brutally honest, while ALWAYS having your back
  • To have some "Boos" in your life ;)
  • To eat cereal for dinner
  • To watch GLEE religiously with your Gleek friends
  • To dance like no one is watching
  • To shoot for the stars
  • To think that you don't sweat......you Glisten!
  • To live by Coco Chanel quotes
  • To think Lady Gaga rules
  • To squeal like a 4 year old when Backstreet Boys and NSYNC come on the radio
  • To have wild and crazy friends (everyone needs a few)
  • To stand up for what you believe in
  • To dog-ear Elle magazine pages (I can't afford it, but I sure can afford that Forever21 replica)
  • To love everything that encompasses the South and embrace that Southern Drawl
  • To kind of want to wake up at 4am and watch the Royal Wedding
  • To do the "pageant pose", complete with hand on hip, in pictures
  • To still wish you could go to prom
  • To never be afraid to go after anything you want
This list will continue to grow as time goes on............Have a great evening Blogg-ahs!!!
