In life, there are certain rules we have to abide by. Stop at a red light. Get to work on time. Don’t have the same crush as your bestie. You know, the important stuff.
When it comes to girl code, it’s no different. And just in case you’ve forgotten, here are the unwritten rules every friendship follows…
One of the most relatable TV shows of our time is Sex and The City. Why? It was the first of its kind to discuss sex and relationships so openly, of course. Liberating amongst its female viewers – and the fellas too – it gave us a sense of realism and acceptance (with our thought process often being, “ok, so everyone discusses penis sizes over cocktails… ironically”.)

I love life. Many don’t believe me when I say it, but I think of it like an engagement ring, not everyone will like yours or want it for themselves but as long as you like it, as long as you want to wake up every damn morning because you just can’t wait to see what the day has in store for you – to hell with everyone else.
Navigating the digital world has its difficulties. You’re forced to be switched on at all times, or risk losing out on the biggest scandals, best selfies and world updates.
Gossip Girl is every girl’s go-to programme. Everyone wants to be Blair Waldorf. Everyone wants to marry a prince. But MOST importantly, everyone wants to find their Chuck Bass.
We all dream of emulating Queen B’s perfect life, but you can’t deny that GG is filled with unrealistic goals and expectations, sorry to crush your dreams…
A great love
I was reading a book over the weekend. In it, it talked about self love and how despite the fact we come into this world sparkly and bright, we chip away at our own confidence with every year. Through school we allow others’ opinions to define us and in general life rely on validation. Through education we’re graded, through our peers and friends we compare, and it only takes a quick browse of social media to not feel enough.
While we may not have mastered how to have a one-on-one dance sesh with Britney or a completely babein outfit sorted at the point of a finger, we have learnt some very valuable lessons from Sabrina The Teenage Witch…
Inhale confidence, exhale doubt.
