Hello beautiful! So glad you’re here. This week in Connecticut, buds on the trees are visible and some flowers look almost ready to bloom. Like clockwork, I’ve got a bad case of spring fever. This usually translates to online shopping for a wardrobe refresh, some spring cleaning and a new color palette of beauty.
While most of the world is in quarantine this month, I’m practicing extreme self care by sticking to my skincare routine, catching up on sleep, drinking a lot of tea and started a twice a day Pilates/yoga regimen.
Many of us have been embracing a more natural look since we are working from home. I went makeup free for a few days, stayed in my pjs, and thought it would be great. I began noticing laziness and general feeling of sluggishness. I’ve found that in order to feel more motivated, I need a little makeup, get out of my pajamas and into at least comfy workout clothes or athleisure.
Work From Home Style
I have been doing yoga and Pilates videos twice a day. I have been LIVING in these pants. They’re so comfortable and still super cute.
I’m pairing them with these crop tops with a soft built-in bralette.
I am also loving these soft twist front boho headbands. They came in a pack of 8 for $15 on Amazon! Perfect for covering hair in need of a serious was and root touch up.
Beauty
I want to share a few beauty items that will undoubtedly leave you looking fresh and ready for spring. Nude Envie is a brand that’s goal is to make you feel like the most gorgeous version of yourself. I’ve gushed over this line so many times on my Instagram story. I’m wearing the shade Lips below.
The entire line is centered around sheer nude shades and plumping formulas that feel as luxurious as they look. They’ve also started making the most velvety eyeshadows and blushes. I’m wearing the eyeshadow shade Dreamy on my lids and Risque to line my lower lashes. I’m also wearing blush in the peachy gold shade Enchant.
Sips
It seems like quarantine rules are “There are no rules.” I feel like people are indulging in a cocktail at all hours of the day. If you decide to partake, might as well make it an experience with some gorgeous wine glasses. Goop recommends these and I concur.
I’ve also been taking advantage of Groupon. I like Kim Crawford’s Sauvignon Blanc and found it here for like half price! I also found my fave bubbly Veuve Clicquot for 35% off here (mimosas anyone?!).
Nosh
I lived off of Sakara’s meal service for a while at the beginning of quarantine and never felt better! It’s organic, vegan and delicious. Seriously, my skin was glowing, the whites of my eyes were literally sparkling. Click here to check out their meal delivery service. I’ve ordered three bags of their cult favorite granola. It’s ridiculous guys. They also have beauty chocolates (!) that are incredible for hair, skin and nails.
Move
I have been mix & matching 2 workouts from Blogilates every day. Her workouts do not require any equipment and are typically 12-15 minutes. Totally doable. Here’s one of her latest…
