Dress up for yourself and no one else.
Either to stay home and perhaps work all day, there is nothing more uplifting then passing by a mirror and taking a second look at yourself. Most of us get all doll up when running errands as if we were dressing up for others. It is always a good thing to look your best at any time, it boosts our self steam and makes our outing even more fun. So why not do the same thing when staying home, after all, we all decorate our house to satisfy our taste so why not dress up in something other than T-shirts or pajamas to enjoy our home. Unless you are planning to spend the day in bed, ditch the Pajames first thing in the morning. So get out of bed and then proceed to take care of yourself, you deserve it.
Make it into your daily routine, dress up in something comfortable but not sloppy, put one your moisturize, your skin appreciate. We only have one face so let’s be kind in that department as well. Put on your lip gloss and start your day, I can guarantee that you will feel much better and perhaps even more productive.
Wonderful things happen when we feel wonderful.
