Dear American Women

One of my favorite magazines of all time is Glamour! They always have such a great mix of fashion, beauty, lifestyle and all around great reads. In the April issue, I came across a fantastically written open letter by James Corden - the new host of The Late Late Show! It has such great advice on life and love that I had to share it with you.

You can read the whole letter here or in the April issue of Glamour.

Here is James' advice on love, confidence, and generally being a decent person in the world:

  • Trust that money won't make you happy. 
  • Realize that "meaningless one-night stands" aren't meaningless. 
  • Get your heart broken; you'll be better for it. 
  • That said, do not date a guy who takes gym selfies. 
  • Marry someone who makes you laugh. 
  • Respect your body. 
  • Be silly when you can. 
  • Forget about age. 
  • Cut yourself some slack. 
  • Have kids if you want to. 
  • But recognize that being a parent is hard. 
  • Speaking of which, stop blaming your parents. 
  • Never stop believing in yourself. 
  • Try not to criticize. 
  • Netflix the following: Ferris Bueller's Day Off; Planes, Trains and Automobiles; Grease; As Good as It Gets; and Dirty Dancing
  • Take action, however big or small. 
  • And vote! 
  • Don't be a bully. 
  • Live in this moment. Everything in your past is gone and everything in your future is undecided. All you really have is this moment, right now. So be the very best you can be. Let yourself shine. If you always do that, your life is going to be great. I promise. 
If you had one piece of advice to give, what would it be?
