DRESS: Swankiss SHOES: ASOS _____________________________________________________________________

Larme-kei is one of my favorite J-fashion styles & I love that I’m seeing more of it’s inspiration in stores! I often see a lot of heart motifs, velvet, satin, lace, ruffles and other feminine elements. The typical color palettes are blacks, off whites, pinks, lilacs, light blues, and deep reds. There’s definitely a Hollywood boudoir meets 50s barbie feel to it and as somebody who also adores rockabilly/pin-up the crossover makes me closet a happy place to be. Swankiss is a super prominent brand within the substyle. While this isn’t an “official” blog write-up on all the glory that is Larme fashion I implore you check out my friend Eri @ Petite Dollies (a true Larme-kei expert & cutie pie).

SELF CARE DAY FOR LOW ENERGY DAYS

it’s important to have different routines ready to match your mood and energy level. which is why I believe preparing for self care days for when you’re just not feeling your best is essential and a great way to look out for yourself. here’s my guide to self care days for low energy.

✧ 𝐌𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓

despite your low energy, it’s important you still get your daily movement. however, exercise doesn’t always have to be intense.

try doing one of these

— 2 minutes of touching/trying to touch your toes

— 5-7 minutes of full body stretching

— 10 minutes of yoga

or maybe just stretch your neck, roll your shoulders, and take a few deep breaths. whatever you’re ready to do :)

links to short low energy workouts:

5 minute morning yoga

11 minute stress relief yoga

10 minute lazy girl workout

8 minute good morning pilates

✧𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃

do something for your mind. journal, get your thoughts out, meditate, read five pages of an inspiring book. do something that you will love and that your mind will thank you for. whether it’s sitting in silence for a few minutes or playing a game that’ll challenge your brain.

journaling prompts <3

++ what’s been draining your energy recently?

++ what’s been giving you positive energy recently?

++ what’s your focus been on lately?

++ what are three things you’re happy are in your life?

++ how is my environment impacting my energy?

if your energy is low I really recommend writing about it. what’s making you tired? reflect on it and go easy on yourself.

✧𝐓𝐎 𝐃𝐎 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓

the last thing you want to do is give your mind the responsibility of remembering your tasks. i don’t care how little you have on your schedule, write a to do list. on a low energy day, it’s important we’re easy on ourselves. getting everything out of our head and onto a piece of paper will not only make tasks seem more manageable but will also make our minds feel a bit lighter.

write everything. I mean it. even the small and seemingly insignificant tasks. even the parts of your routine that you do everyday anyways, write it all down.

✧𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒

even though we’re a little bit down, that doesn’t mean we can cheat on the promises and boundaries we made with ourselves.

a low energy day doesn’t mean you can jump right back into your old habits. you’ll only feel worse if you do. it can be comforting to spend the whole day in bed, liking relatable TikToks and having a 7 hour screen time. but that’s not real rest. do something that’ll nourish you while also making you feel relaxed and comfortable. whether that’s watching an episode of your comfort show, rereading a chapter of your favorite book, or listening to your all time favorite songs while you just relax.

low energy is not a reason to practice unhealthy bad habits.

✧𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐘

how do we enjoy a low energy self care day besides the usual rest and relaxation? by doing some activities!!

things you can do on a low energy self care day:

++paint

++do your own nails

++movie marathon of your fave genre

++install and try out different cute & cozy games on your device

++bubble bath

++make a Pinterest board or Moodboard that will inspire you to be the best version of yourself

thank you for reading, take care!! ♡

Health-maxxing skin >>>>> studying makeup!! 🍑 8 Ways to Start

Hydrate like your life depends on it, because your enjoyment of life sure does.

Get an expensive, high-quality multivitamin. Drugstore brands don't cut it.

Put on sunscreen before your face is ever hit by rays, and watch your bedroom shades. I've received a sunburn from the morning sun peeking through before!

Research retinoids like retinol & tretinoin, and why mega-dosing vit A can function similarly. Don't forget your neck if applying topically.

Find out what you're allergic to. Eliminate all the common allergens for a week - wheat, dairy, sugar, nuts, shellfish, eggs - and then reintroduce them one at a time. Your skin and gut will tell you if something is harming you if you're patient and LISTEN to your body.

Environmental allergens will kill your skin too - get tested for allergies to pet dander, mold, dust mites, etc. especially if you wake up with mucus habitually or feel tired a lot.

Fill your diet with antioxidants.

Quit using lip balms that make your lips more chapped and switch to applying oils.
