11 Teens To Look To For Stle Inspiration
These girls prove that age ain’t nothing but a number.
1. Nasreen Osman, age 18
Nasreen's blog Lazy Obsession is more than just a fashion blog, it's also a diary about how much school kinda sucks. Nasreen's style is attainable and easy to replicate so it's a good spot to look for everyday inspiration.
2. Chloe Grace Moretz, age 17
Chloe has been acting since she was just 7 years old, and she's been on more red carpets than she can count. It's pretty clear that the Kick Ass star has learned how to dress and how to dress well. She shows us over and over that age doesn't matter when it comes to fashion.
3. Kiernan Shipka, age 14
Kiernan is 14 years old; let that just sink in for a second. Despite her age, her style is fashion-forward and tasteful. She's age-appropriate but edgy, and she manages to keep her style feminine with a little flair.
4. Hailee Steinfeld, age 17
Hailee is like a walking H&M. But not the shitty part of H&M that is just one giant pile of fabric. She's from the magical and sometimes mythical part of H&M where everyone seems to find the perfect items all the time.
5. Malia Obama, age 16
Malia Obama is in a unique fashion position. Everything that she wears is fair game for the public to discuss. Luckily, she seems to have a flawless understanding of how to work within that space, just like her mother.
6. Zendaya, age 18
The "Replay" singer looks great dressed up and even better dressed down. She uses urban street style as a jumping off point and adds her own spin on it to create something really unique and out of the box.
7. Kendall Jenner, age 19
Say what you want about Kendall but girl knows how to wear an outfit. Her mix of designer brands and "I don't give a fuck what my age is" attitude has
catapulted Kendall into the fashion world in a big way.
8. Maude Apatow, age 15
At 15 years old, Judd Apatow's daughter is a pretty badass actress, writer, and fashionista. Her red carpet looks are simple but effective. They fit well, are flattering and most important, they perfectly encapsulate her sweet and quirky personality.
9. Rowan Blanchard, age 13
Rowan is only 13 years old but isn't letting her age stop her from exploring her fashion sense. Rowan is kind of like that best friend you had in middle school that just seemed to get it long before everyone else.
10. Evita Nuh, 15
Evita, based in Jakarta, Indonesia, writes the blog The Creme De La Crop. It's a spot for her to explore fashion, her place in the world, and her views on love. It's a cool reminder of the best parts of being a teenager.
11. Callie Reiff, age 14
Callie Reiff is like Stefan's "NYC's hottest club is..." — except a person. She has everything: She's a DJ (she opened for Ed Sheeran), used to be a ballerina for the NYC Ballet at Lincoln Center, and is a model for companies like H&M and Uniqlo. If that's not enough, Callie also runs her own blog, Callie's Street Chic.

Everything You Need to Know About Making the Leap From High School to College : It's not exactly like the movies.
If you’re anything like Maggie DiPasquale, you likely have visions of yourself biding your time as you got out of the car on your first day of high school. Would you be able to manage the heavy workload? Would you get lost on the way to class? But most importantly: on Wednesdays, would you really have to wear pink?
As the oldest in her family, DiPasquale imparted all the knowledge she learned from transitioning to college to her younger sister once her time came around. Now, a professional big sister (can we just steal her job for a second?) she hosts Modern Mentor Prep seminars across the tri-state area, and online, so you don’t have to sweat it (unless, like DiPasquale, you join the dance team in college, in which case, you go Glen Coco).

Here, she answers some of the most popular questions about making the move from high school to college.
1. How am I going to make friends?
If you’re worried about finding a new squad, the first step is to challenge yourself to text old friends less often so they don’t become a security blanket. Limit your social media, aka where everyone displays their glamorous highlight reel instead of what’s going on backstage (your friend from another college probably only Snapchatted that raging party because she’s bored on the sidelines), and go out and make your own version of fun. “I get a huge amount of business in December where girls say college isn’t what they expected. They have huge expectations thinking they’ll instantly make a best friend for life,” DiPasquale says. In reality, friendships take time to cultivate and nurture. People often remove their mask once second semester rolls around, so wait it out if it doesn’t happen instantaneously. In the meantime, find a mentor, be it a professor or a club leader, to better orient you.
2. Will I gain weight?
The “Freshman 15” is a myth if you want it to be. Staying healthy is an active choice you should make every day (and hey, if fro-yo is your oxygen, just eat a bit lighter throughout the day). Say you scheduled long power walks with your friends in high school, and don’t yet have a crew to keep you motivated — join the campus gym and make like-minded friends that can hold you accountable. “It doesn’t have to be a kickbox yogalates bootcamp class, but it’s just important for mental health,” DiPasquale says.
3. How should I dress my dorm?
As a kid, your parents probably made interior decorating choices for you, whereas going to college often presents a new opportunity to pimp out your room in a way that better reflects your identity. While the goal is to get out there as much as you can, you want to feel at ease whenever you do stay in. That means striking a balance between the nostalgic, comforting flair that your childhood home had to offer with something more mature and refined. Start by choosing a soothing color palette and line the walls with printed Instagrams of your family and friends back home. Cover your bed with massive pillows to cuddle up to if you’re feeling homesick, and if you need that teddy bear as a transitional object, give it a new home on a sassy pillow. Oh, and we almost forgot about that thing called homework — a cute organizer will ensure you never have to blame an incomplete assignment on the dog you can’t even keep in your dorm (and you can also catalog each issue of Teen Vogue!).
4.Will I find a boyfriend/girlfriend?
How do you date when no one’s dating? Firstly, make meeting people, as opposed to dating, the ultimate goal. This way, relationships can progress organically and you’ll feel less pressure to advance both physically and emotionally. “I haven’t met a school that doesn’t have hook-up culture. The biggest issue is that hooking up is backwards. We hook up with people to feel closer to them but we end up feeling farther apart. We share something intimate and then we hope it turns into a relationship or that they’ll text us the next day,” DiPasquale says. But you don’t have to cling solely onto hope — because us feminists put matters into our own hands. If you find the guy from math class cute, let him know. You might even land a new study buddy.
