Survive the heat and stay stylish in summer

Most people don't really care about being fashionable in summer. And it's understandable because when it is 90 degrees outside all you want is to stay in the place with a good air conditioning wearing nothing but a swimsuit. However we still have to leave our houses, go to work and do things outside. That's why it is very important to choose appropariate clothes.

Firstly, when it is very hot outside I recommend wearing clothes made from natural fabrics like linen and cotton. They will let your skin breath and you will feel comfortable. Besides, natural fabrics absorb the moisture nicely and they feel very good on the skin.

Second rule is to wear loose clothes. For instance, loose dresses are very popular this summer. I really like this trend because there is a huge variety of loose dresses of different length, design and shape. Victorian sleeve dresses are my personal favourites. Good thing is that you will feel free and comfortable in loose clothes and it is even better if it is made of natural fabrics.

I've also learned that in the cities in hot weather it is better to wear more clothes from natural fabrics than to wear open clothes like tops or jeans shorts. Loose clothes and natural fabrics help to protect your body from the baking sun and let your skin breath.

As for shoes, I prefer wearing sandals or slingbacks. In summer 2020 shoe trends are crazy: toe-ring shoes, lace-up sandals, low-heeled lace up shoes etc. My personal favourite shoe trend is "Dad Sandals".You've probably seen them all over Instagram. I like how massive they look. Also, I think they are very comfortable and suitable for hot summer days.

Life without social media

Today I want to talk about a very important topic - how social media influences our life and daily routines. No doubt, Instagram , Twitter , Facebook (yep, many people including me still use it ) , Youtube and many more platforms have become a significant part of our lifestyle. I'm pretty sure that 90% of people start their day by going on Instagram and checking their Mail. On the one hand I'm so grateful that we have social media. Mainly, because with its help we can communicate with our loved once. We can have conversations and video chats on Zoom or Skype and it's so important during this not easy times. But on the other hand, it's really scary to see people on their devices all the time. I mean it's some sort of addiction. Everytime we start to feel bored or have nothing to do we grab our phone and literally wasting our lives watching videos or pictures of other people having fun and living their best lives. It's crazy to me. I, myself, was really addicted t...

Why self-care is important + self-care checklist

Sometimes we all feel stressed, tired and overwhelmed. In such phases of our lives we forget to be grateful for the things that we have, start focusing on negative emotions and , therefore, surround ourselves with negative enerergy. When we feel this way it is important to give our body and brain some rest and start doing something that makes us happy. I personaly love doing self-care days (or even weeks) when I dedicate time to my hobbies and well-being. Self-care days help me to remember to be thankful for what I have and don't take things for granted. On such days it is also important to stay off social media and focus on the moment. My personal hobby is cooking. When I cook I forget about any problems and I don't even notice how the time passes. So on my self-care days I like to cook. The other thing I like to do is morning runs and simple workouts. I'm not a morning workout type of person, but stretches is the only thing my body is able to do in the morning. Journali...

How to make the most out of your mornings

A good start of the morning is the key to a productive and happy day. In this post I'm going to share with you my morning routine and some tips that help me to feel energetic and motivated throughout the day. 1. An hour without a phone I've already talked about this in my previous post. I've been learning to start my day without Instagram, Twitter and other social platforms. It really helps to keep my mind clear for the first hour after waking up and I just feel more calm and present by doing this. It is a very simple habit but I really encourage you to try it. 2. Stretches After making my bed, brushing my theeth and washing my face I'm trying to convince myself to do a little work out. Unfortunately, I've never been in good relationships with sport and working out is the last thing I want to do in the morning:D But I figured that it is so much easier to do a 5 min morning stretches. I'm just doing torso twists, shoulder stretch, bending forward etc. It really...
