- Declutter with PurposeStart by taking everything out of your closet. Yes— everything. This allows you to see what you have and evaluate each item. Use the Three-Pile Method: Keep: Items you love, wear often, and feel confident in. Donate/Sell: Pieces in good condition that no longer fit your style or needs. Discard: Worn-out, damaged, or outdated items that can’t be repurposed. If you haven’t worn it in over a year, it might be time to let it go. A streamlined closet means less stress and more outfit possibilities.

If you are unsure where to start, the 50/30/20 rule is a great launching point. This means 50% of your earnings go towards needs (housing, groceries, gas, all the pretty boring stuff), 30% goes toward wants (the fun stuff: travel, restaurants, subscriptions, or my personal favorite, Miss America merch), and 20% goes towards savings and loans. Depending on your goals, you can shift these percentages accordingly. By using an app, or, dare I say, making a spreadsheet of your own finances, you can clearly see exactly where your money is going and plan where it should be going.

Opportunities
BIG
By: Bailey Barger
For many young women, the Miss America stage is more than just a runway—it’s a launchpad to opportunity. Beyond the gowns, the spotlights, and the talent performances lies something even more transformative: life-changing scholarships that open doors to higher education and future careers.
Year after year, the Miss America organization stands as one of the largest scholarship providers for women in the United States. Whether you’re competing at the local, state, or national level, there are financial opportunities designed to help young women invest in their futures.
Behind every rhinestone crown is a scholarship —and for many Miss America and Miss America’s Teen contestants, that scholarship is a game-changer.
