New York City has shut down through the end of April and possibly this will continue through early May.
While indoors wherever you are I recommend going on the Dressing Well website to read the stylists’ blog regarding: 5 Ways to Get Out of Your PJs.
In early spring in New York City the weather is still colder and not always warmer yet. The heat still comes on in the apartments.
After reading the stylists’ blog I was motivated to wear lipstick in my apartment even though no one else can see me.
One other thing I do to cheer up is to wear one of my colorful sweaters every day:
I have a rose-pink sweater. A neon yellow Uniqlo. A blue-and-black striped Banana Republic sweater. A sky-blue cashmere sweater. And a cocoa brown cashmere.
How to cheer yourself up can be as simple as wearing a new “outfit” every day.
I rotate three pairs of dark jeans with the colorful sweaters.
Through this third week I’m going to start wearing jewelry at home too.
Wearing PJs all day is the quickest route to ill health and a low mood.
Face it: how do you feel when you’re dressed for bedtime and it’s noon?
You might get empowered after reading this blog entry to dress in street clothes while you’re indoors.
My new habit of dressing up to please myself while sheltering in place has done wonders for my mental and physical health.
This is the ultimate proof that fashion isn’t frivolous.
I think fashion can be feel-good medicine for women as we live through this pandemic.
