Bah! it has been a dull week, and if you are anything like me it took a little more then coffee and a sheer will to get you to 100% . Well enough being battered by winter - I say we paint our sunshine. Girl here it is, 5 ways to feel better now.
Start your day on Purpose
Get
up with a routine, rushing round just makes you look tired and you hair
crazy. Crazy face and hair ain't sexy, and its hard to feel confident
when you look like poo- FACT. So what do I do about it? IGNORE that
Snooze button and start my day on purpose. Then this gives me time to
light some scented candles, play some good morning tracks, decide what I
am going to wear, tackle my hair and get on with my day. I know that
sounds annoyingly perky, and trust me, some mornings I struggle, but
you know what? those extra minutes you wrestled out of your alarm will
do you no favors, when you spend the day apologizing for your lethargy.
Start the day on your terms.
Pop Your Colour
Nothing makes me feel better then a splash of colour - its not just for the 90's , guests on Ricky Lake or Euro vision contestants. Seriously! Stop wearing head to toe black you're not 60 ! Who says that colour is just for summer? It is time to dress your way out of the winter blues. If you are not as bold as the beautiful Clara here then start with accessories, and work your way up to block items, anchored with a dark colour staple jacket or pants and then what the hell radiate head to toe.... like Solange here.
Ps. I love you Clara but no one shall dare bring back the bom bag. Nooo! not even you.
Freakin Awesome Hair
Freakin Awesome hair. Sorry it has to be said. Awesome hair makes you feel awesome. On days when you cant really control much else a beautiful barnet is sure to keep you smiling. Now I don't know what hair you have & if you are anything like me, you hair has the propensity to rebel.
Here are some tricks for keeping it under control and getting the mane you desire.
- the hair dryer. Overlooked as a salon tool or something for rushed upside down drying- the hair dryer is often overstepped for its counter part the ceramic straightener. However I am going to campaign right now for the comeback of the hair dryer in everyday good grooming. Used with the right ceramic backed round bristled brush it builds body, use heat defence first to avoid frazzles and enjoy the floaty feelin'.
Treat your Tummy
So I am awful when it comes to this, I just pump tasty rubbish into my body and expect it to run like a machine. No fair- and no, I am not going to get on you about healthy living 24/7 because girl that ain't my style but on days when you need the boost, make sure you have some fresh grapefruit and vitamins to kick your but into gear. In general as a woman it is so important we keep up on vitamins that encourage energy, to protect the world with the crazy that comes with being over worked and under appreciated ( aka a mother, sister, friend, woman). I just started on some Iron & vitamin C , D and B supplements. They don't even taste bad, so there is no excuse not to pep your step from within.
The Small Things
And there we have it 5 ways to trick yourself into feeling its summer....and before you know it it will be. Hang in there my lovelies!
