Kindly With K: Glamour

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?

The Glamour List: 14 Reasons to Absolutely, Positively Love Being a Woman

by: Pamela Redmond Satran & Kimberly Bonnell

You can get away with not wearing pants, like, ever. Hat tip to all the skirts and dresses of the world.
And speaking of clothes, men pretty much just have pants, shirts, and ties. You've got capes and jumpsuits and minis and crop tops and midi-pants and -- well it's a party in your closet.
When you do gain weight, you probably gain it in your boobs, and who minds that?
You can grow a human!
Also, you can choose whether and when to.
You've got a killer immune system. Scientists have found women are less likely to get their male partner's cold than he is to get yours. Sorry, boys.
You can watch all the Ryan Gosling movies you want. Because if you get turned on in public, no one has to know.
You can completely transform your look with one swipe of Nars Scarlett Empress red.
Feminism: Now chic! (Not that it ever wasn't!)
You don't have to settle for one orgasm.
You can bounce the baby with one arm, stir the holiday soup with the other, and keep the conference call going. It's not "balance." It's life.
You know how to cut through the bar-stool B.S.: A study found women are better than men at recognizing pickup lines.
Betty White! Proof that at 92, women still have it.
Because your mom says so, and that woman is never wrong.

"Vodka is kind of a hobby." - Betty White
