Teen Scene: What's Cool For School

(Via Teen Vogue)

I'm back! I didn't mean to leave without saying goodbye.  Little did I know the country not only offered peace and quiet, but a mandatory state of being "unplugged." U-Verse and my blogger platform did not play well together.  And you know what? Us bloggers need a vacation, too. Mine has come to an end, and soon so will that of all students.  This was a fun post.  I love the way teens express themselves with their style.  If I had to give one piece of advice, it would be, do not be afraid to dress up. You feel better when you look good!
