Happy Tuesday: Some Notes on Work Week Survival

Whether it be the necessity of work, piling assignments at school, the bitter cold that keeps you from walking to the place that you really wanted take-out from, or all of the above, the start of a new week isn’t always a clean slate.  Luckily, you can always…

BRIGHTEN UP YOUR BEAUTY ROUTINE. Feel rejuvenated or at least look like it with these simple tips that can erase the traces of overtime without making you late.

OPT FOR A PRETTY PLANNER. Who wants to list all of the crap they have to do in some ugly leather bound book with blank lined pages and the occasional motivational quote from a random historical figure that never has much to do with anything you have to accomplish anyway?  Not me.  Get functional, colorful, and sassy with Anne Taintor’s Planner, “It’s So Involved Being Me.”

CAFFEINATE AND OVERSTATE. Caffeinating and complaining are two of the best coping mechanisms on a stressful day.  So why not kill two birds with one stone?

SNUGGLE UP IN STYLE. And NO I’m not saying Ugg Boots and leggings.  Dear God, no.  I said “in style.”  Go for a long cotton tunic top from American Apparel.  It’s simple, super-comfortable, and stylish at the same time.  Keep your legs toasty with a nice pair of wool tights. Top with a long cardigan if needed.

HAVE A QUICK FIX. While I am convinced that college is ruining my face, I am ever-grateful to Max Factor’s Pan Stik Foundation for covering my blemishes in a split second and lasting throughout the whole school day.
