I have always wanted to create a display on a map of everywhere I have been in the world. Unfortunately there would be little marks on it considering there are so many places and I am only seventeen. I found this list online and decided I want to go to every place. I have been to Miami, Chicago, New York City, Orlando, and this summer I will be going to Austin; which are all on the list. I would love to go to San Francisco, Maui, and Las Vegas. All the destinations on the list seem like amazing vacations. Hopefully I visit them all! Have a great summer!

Before Summer Ends
Above is a picture of a little part of Woodstock. Woodstock is known to be the big hippie town but I have to say it is my favorite. My family has a house near there so we are always up there. During the summer it is perfect. There are so many fun things to do. There are the best cafes and restruants, boutiques, and concerts. Below is the website where the music festivals are located. Even if you don't like the music, it is still a blast. I plan on going to a few Bethel Woods concerts. I love it there!

Summer 7
I found this article and thought it was interesting. It basically states the seven summer fashion essentials and I love all seven! Prints are IN this summer along with bright colors. I love both of these essentials. Also, this article gives bathing suit essetials. Tips on staying classy still looking great. Don't forget, it is not a summer article until they end it with a lecture on which SPF and moisturizer to wear!
Elle Fashion
I found this slide show on Elle's website. It has a handful of outfits put together for summer. It also shows the price and carrier of the outfits. I love the outfits they put together. There are so many colors and it makes me ten times more excited for the upcoming season. I especially love the amount of coral that is in the outfits. I love the coral color and it looks so good with a nice tan. I think my favorite peice is either the Misoni weaved bikini or the second outfit in the slideshow. I love the tunic and bag together. I also cannot get over Kate Spades bag they show! Definitely putting that on my wish list for summer!
So Much Fun!
I went white water rafting last summer and it was such a fun summer activity. If you are bored and want to have fun, this will change that quickly. I was so scared going into the raft but it was such a fun experience. I went white water rafting in New York along the Hudson River. It is so nice it the summer because of the weather but your a long the water so there is a nice breeze. It is a perfect oppurtunity to get some friends together and try it out. It is a lot of fun and something to check of your bucket list!

Summer Jam
In only thirteen days is Hot 97's Summer Jam concert. I am extremely jealous of anyone who is going this year. Summer Jam is a music festival with the latest rap preformers. This year the preformers include Nicki Minaj, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross & Maybach Music, J.Cole, Wale, Meek Mill, Trey Songz, Waka Flocka, Big Sean, and more. This festival will be held at Metlife Stadium in New Jersey. Every year tickets manage to be sold out which is crazy considering it is being held in a huge stadium. I have only heard good things about Summer Jam and hope to attend next year!
Karma
Summer is approaching and it is about time for a professional manicure and pedicure. Yesterday, my friend tole me about this salon in Ridgewood and I immediately made an appointment. Karma is a spa in Ridgewood that uses all oranic products, including the nail polishes. From lotion to nail polish remover, all the products are organic. I cannot wait to go!

Cruises Are Going to be my Favorite!
This summer I am going on my first cruise. I am so excited because of all the great things I have heard about them. A cruise sounds like the ideal vacation to me. Although the rooms can sometimes be packed, the oppurtunities and activities they offer on the ship are unbelievable. The all you can eat buffets, ice skating rinks, pools, water slides, clubs, concerts, broadways plays, movie theaters, salons, and spas, is more than a treat. I have not even been on a cruise yet and I would tell everyone to try it at least once. It sounds amazing unimaginable!
Technically Not Summer but....
Memorial Day weekend is coming up so fast, that people are not sure what they want to do! There are so many fun activities that can be done on your days off from work and school. While celebrating the lives who once fought for our country, we can gather with friends and family and enjoy a nice barbecue together. Fireworks are also my favorite part about these types of holidays! Hopefully the weather is beautiful that weekend and the beach or pool is an option. If it is a little too cold for the beach or pool but its spring weather, a trip to the city is perfect. A trip to Soho for lunch and shopping sounds like the ideal day to me! Have fun during the upcoming MDW!

Have to Try This!
I found this recipe under the Healthy Summer Recipe section and I need to try this. I love zucchini and cucumber and it combines the two. It is an awesome salad to make for barbecue or a side dish for dinner. It is very simple and the preparation is quick and easy. It is all vegetables and a light dressing which sounds delicious. Cannot wait to try this!
Zumba!
I have so many wonderful things about Zumba. I have yet to attend a Zumba class, partially because I would probably humiliate myself, but after reading many blogs and articles about this form of exercise it is helping women AND men lose weight and tone their bodies. They offer Zumba programs at many local gyms and studios. It is an excellent way to shed pounds in time for summer. And it is so fun!
Amazing Vacation!
The picture above is the town center in Telluride, Colorado. I went to Telluride about five years ago and it was one of the best vacations of my life. The hotel was newly built and beautiful. Not a lot of people would think to bring their family here for a family vacation but I can honestly say it was an amazing experience. During the summer it has the perfect weather and is not too cold and not too warm. Our hotel was below the mountains and we took the gondola ski lift to the town everyday. It had the most amazing views. In Telluride there are activities including horse back riding, hiking, concerts, shows, restaurants, ATV driving, and sight seeing. It is a vacation that all families should consider!
Make Your Summer a Safe Summer!
We have all heard this numerous times, but that is because it is so important. Some teenagers are very unaware of the damage the sun does and the risks there are. In the article below there are not only ways to prevent cancer, but also simple skin care protocol. It is easy to have a breakout during the summer because of the oils from sunscreens, perspirations, and germs, but there are plenty of ways to avoid it and keep your skin clean. Enjoy the summer but keep your skin safe!

But this article assures us that we will also get to see more black and white this summer due to the runway styles this season!
Best Summer Vacations
Maui, Hawaii is a family and friendly vacation. It is a beautiful setting with the warmest weather and best activities. The all exclusive hotels, five star dining, scuba diving, and beaches are to die for. It will be a vacation that will last a life time. Maui is a spot I would like to visit someday. It is home Hawaii's most beautiful attractions and islands; such as, the beach, Kaanapali, in the picture above!

Awesome Find!
I came across this amazing deal while looking for bathing suits online. I have never thought to look at H&M for bathing suits but now, that is the first place I am going to. H&M, one of my favorite clothing stores, is selling bath suit tops and bottoms for only $4.95! It is such a better deal then the $100 I am used to spending. This is the best deal I have found!

Teen Vogue Fitness!
Many teens are concerned about exercise during the summer. Teen Vogue, like other young adult magazines, give many short and effective workouts for teenagers to try. The Summer Fitness Mini Boot Camp work out was created by former marine, Rueben Belliard. She has combinded cardio and muscle building techniques to keep you in shape!
High-Low Bloggers!
Any store you go to, you will see a skirt or dress with a high-low trend. They are so comfortable and very trendy. I own many skirts and dresses with this design and it adds a great touch to a dress. The FashFood Trend Report is so right when they say a high-low design is perfect for summer! A high-low dress or skirt reveals a summer tan while not looking too awkward. You can find them at Forever 21, Urban Outfitters, and H&M.
