Refresh for Spring!

The arrival of spring is also a time to renew your resolutions for self-care. Here are my tips for refreshing your look and your perspective as you head into the sunshine.

Ready Your Closet

Clean out your closet to be ready for spring. Bring forward the clothes you’ll wear in spring and summer, and move back (or out!) the winter wear.

Need help? I’ll come to your home and help you with your spring closet cleanse and  make suggestions on how to freshen up your look.

Shoes and Bags

If you have some favorite footwear that's still in style, consider bringing them to the shoe repair to make them like new. While you're there, drop off your favorite totes for some TLC as well.

Makeup

Go refresh your colors. Find your style with on-trend looks. The smoking cat eye with nude lips offers a dramatic look, and the simple cat eye with red lips is a great day look.

When you’re current with makeup, you glow. 

Don’t forget to take care of your eyebrows this spring.

Hair Tips and Styles to Look For

Bigger curls and bangs (if you like them). If you wear a ponytail, put some volume on top, with a couple of curls (not all straight hair). Messy is the look, but clean, healthy and well-maintained is the style!

Winter hair can be very dry. You can visit your salon for a deep conditioning and maybe even a clear gloss. If you’re coloring your hair, ask for a clear glaze to be put in with your color, to give your hair that healthy shine. 

Undergarments

Don’t overlook your undergarments. Spring is a great time to make an appointment at Nordstrom for a fitting to make sure you’re wearing the right size. If you have a larger bust, you’ll wear out your bras more often. Keep several in your closet, so you can switch them often and they’ll last longer.

Self Care

Don’t forget a facial. You should have one every season: your skin changes from winter to spring, from dry air into moisture. Get the new skin shining through and enjoy your glow.

Get a pedicure. Grey or greige are on trend, or go with the colors of the season.

Exercise! If it isn’t your routine, try 10 minutes a day. Barre3 offers great online classes. Ride your bike to run your nearby errands or visit friends. 

Have fun with your girlfriends. Be spontaneous. Meet them for lunch along the water, take a walk or get a pedicure together.

Wear Sunglasses

Go big this season, and SMILE!
