Are you feeling like you have been looking less than your best lately? Sometimes we can get caught up in all the responsibilities of life and stop taking care of ourselves. Maybe you have kids, or a crazy school or work schedule. Don't worry, because I have 10 simple things that you can do to learn how to look your best everyday. These tips are are the same habits that women who look beautiful everyday already know.
I hope that they help!
1. Get Up 30 Minutes Earlier
If you are rushed in the morning and don't have enough time to get ready then it will be hard to look your best. I know it can be hard to wake up early, when your bed feels so comfy, you just want to press snooze and sleep in as long as possible. If you are in this habit then you need to break this routine and make sure that you are waking up at a certain time so that you are not rushed to get ready each morning.
2. Keep Up With Your Haircuts
Make sure that you are keeping your scheduled hair trim or haircut appointments. Sometimes it can be tempting to just skip them. But looking your best everyday is about getting into a routine, so you want to make sure that you are in the routine of keeping up with your haircuts. When your hair is looking its best you will also be looking your best.
3. Have a Go To Natural Makeup Look
If you have a natural easy to do makeup look then it will be much easier to make sure you are doing every morning rather than a complicated time consuming look. While it can be nice to take extra time on your makeup and go the extra mile to have that extra special look, just save this for special occasions. Instead have a daily go to natural and easy look. One that brightens and evens your face, and gives you a nice natural look. It will be quick enough that you can apply it everyday and this will help you to easily look better even when you are pressed for time.
4. Wear Your Favorite Clothes
Some outfits just make us feel and look amazing. Then there are other clothes that we just really don't look as good in. You really want to find more of these staple clothing items that you feel and look your best. So take some time to go shopping, try on a bunch of stuff, and only buy the things that you really can't live without. By filling your closet with only the clothes that make you look amazing, and getting rid of the rest, you will have something to wear that makes you look good every day of the week.
5. Make Sure You Exercise Regularly
If you want to look your best everyday then you need to make sure you are taking care of your body. Sticking to a regular workout routine will help you to look and feel better. Exercising helps you mentally and physically. Plus when you are exercising and staying in shape your clothes will fit better and you will just feel good.
6. Stick to a Skin Care Routine
Do you have a current morning and nighttime skincare routine? If you don't, you really need to find one that works for you. To look your best everyday you need to make sure that you are taking care of your skin properly. Your skin care routine should include washing, exfoliating, and moisturizing.
7. Get Enough Sleep
It can be tempting to skip sleep. You might have a super busy schedule and just not enough hours in the day. If you really want to look your best everyday then you need to make sure you are getting enough sleep. When you don't get enough sleep you will have a tired puffy look to your face and eyes. When you are rested you just feel better and you definitely look better too. So make sure you are getting enough beauty rest.
8. Don't Forget The Bronzer
Bronzer can give you that nice sunkissed bright glow. I personally love using bronzer because it just brightens up my face and makes me feel so much more beautiful. It's also super quick and easy to apply, so it's something that you could work into your daily morning routine. If you haven't tried a bronzer you should test it out. It might just be exactly what you need to give your face a nice bright sun kissed look.
9. Get a Good Perfume
A great smelling perfume can make such a difference. It can make you feel amazing, smell good, and even appear more beautiful to others. Find yourself a couple great perfumes and take the extra few moments each morning to put them on. If there was an upside to the Don Draper era of menswear, it's that you didn't have to think much about what you wore. Gray or navy suit, white shirt, tie, and wingtips during the week; chinos and an Oxford during the weekend. The downside, of course, was that until you retired and moved to Florida 'where you could swap your suit for pastel-colored pants and some fancy white shoes' you were basically stuck in a clothing rut, day-in, day-out. Today, a much more relaxed attitude about office dress codes means there's more freedom to have fun with your wardrobe. Unfortunately, with that freedom comes the burden of choice and a higher risk of messing it up. We're here to help with seven outfit ideas that'll get you through the entire week and guarantee you're the most stylish guy in the room, no matter where you are.
Now that more offices err on the side of business casual, the suit as a work uniform has largely gone the way of the dodo. But that doesn't mean you still won't occasionally need one, whether it's for a meeting with the bosses or lunch with a new client. On those days, keeps things classic with a slim-fit navy suit, a crisp white cotton dress shirt, a pair of black leather Derbies, and a subtly stylish tie.
The beauty of a suit is that it can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. For a more casual but still right for the office approach, simply pair it with a solid T-shirt rather than a shirt and tie, and sleek minimalist sneakers instead of dress shoes. It's a look that isn't overdressed, but will elevate you above your chinos-and-a-button-down-wearing coworkers.
Jeans aren't just for casual Friday. Mix a dark pair with a crisp white Oxford shirt and a navy or patterned blazer for a look that's totally appropriate for mid-week. Add a shoe that?s either a little more adventurous (like minimalist sneakers or Chelsea boots) or a little more conservative (like suede lace-up boots), depending on your preference and what the office dress code dictates.
Clean and simple is always a good approach for office attire. Dialing things down and focusing on fit and quality will guarantee that you look good without ever coming off as overcooked? Especially toward the end of the week when things are (hopefully) starting to mellow out. The best way to do this is by pairing a lightweight cashmere or merino crewneck sweater with trousers and a pair of leather Derbies. Throw a bomber over it when you leave the office for a little added edge.
Office dress codes may have gotten more relaxed, but that doesn't mean you should approach Casual Friday as Even More Casual Friday (important note: Sweatpants are never okay for the office). Think of your Friday outfit as a softer version of your everyday look. Rather than dark jeans, try denim with a bit of a fade. And instead of a crewneck sweater, try a (nice) crewneck sweatshirt with a blazer on top.
Saturday should be about maximizing comfort without sacrificing style, whether you're headed out to brunch or simply bumming around town. If it's a brisk day out, that means layers: Start with a bright T-shirt for a pop of color, then add a zip-up hoodie and, if you need more, a shirt-jacket over that. Finish it off with a pair of slouchy cotton trousers and, rather than sneakers, mix things up with some very on-trend and ultra comfy Clark's Wallabies.
After a long week (and hopefully, a fun and adventurous first half of the weekend), Sunday is where you can truly unwind. That's right: It's finally time for sweats.
However, just because you're making comfort your primary goal doesn't mean you have to look sloppy. Opt for a pair of stylish track pants (rather than those grungy sweats you've had since college), a hoodie that isn't just black or gray, and your most stunt-worthy pair of sneakers.
