You know that friend, or that mom you see at parent pick-up who seems to have their life together, all the time... The one who's career and marriage is obviously flourishing, they never skip the gym or the hairdresser, and they just make it all, just seem, so easy?!
In all honesty, there isn't even, really, a proper definition for "having your life together." But I know as you are reading this, and you are thinking of someone in particular, or thought of someone you can't even stand, and I am sure you are desperate for answers.
For the key, to having your shi*t together, all the time.
Well, that isn't me, sister! Catch me, daily, messing things up, stains on my clean t-shirt, messy hair, and the never-ending to-do list. They call me a hot-mess-express for a reason, and you know what, that's okay!! The truth is, that there is not one person in this world who truly has their life together.
I have met so many people that I have admired, and I always bring myself to the same conclusion, they are also, just human.
It is so important that we realize that we all have our flaws, and we all make mistakes, no matter how perfect our lives appear to be, from the outside. None of this is to say, that there isn't anything you can do, to not feel on top of the world...
Like, wearing a matching set of bra and panties.
I don't know what it is, but there is something about matching your undergarments (ew that word makes me cringe), that makes me feel put together, almost instantly. Even if they aren't Victoria Secret or even the same brand, just the same color can be life changing!!
Throwing on the cozy, matching pajamas set.
Basically, the same idea, but getting ready for bed and waking up in a matching pj set makes me feel like I am capable of anything!
Spend additional time in the bathroom.
I am not talking about any dirty work; I am talking about more than just your morning and evening routine. During the midday slump, run a brush through your hair or swish around some mouthwash; you'll feel quickly refreshed and more put-together, in an instant.
Open and use a brand-new thing of Chapstick or even lip-gloss! And if you're really feeling wild, do both!!
Hydrated lips are happy lips, and even the little bit of glass, even with a bare face, can help you to feel prettier and more put together! Grab a new glass from the cabinet, fill it with ice and water, throw in a lemon or a lime, and drink it, girl!
A hydrated girl is a happy and healthy girl!
It's simple math. And a new glass from the cabinet always encourages me to drink more water- I don't know what it is about a new cup or even a cup I haven't used in a while, but it really does help add to that water goal!!
Those are five of my, feel like I've got my shit together, staples, what are some of yours??
What are some other ways that help you to instantly feel refreshed and put together??
XO, Kelleen
