Quick Choices You Can Make When You Have 5 Minutes to Get Ready

It's not so easy to look cute in a hurry. It's quick to throw on your junky clothes, but I have thought of some better choices you can make when you only have 5 minutes to get ready. If you have a few minutes more then definitely... mascara too!
We're going to take a dull gym outfit, make a few choices to: change items out, keep a few, and add some. All in all, 5 minutes is all you need to not look like a slob if you make a few simple choices.

You've got to make intentional choices when it comes to style, because that's basically what style is. Intentional choices like not choosing your gym clothes, or taking a second to make sure your eyebrows are on, or putting on your simple jewelry pieces. When you look better, you feel better. When you only have 5 minutes, it's just as easy to grab these more stylish items as it is to grab your workout pants, so you might as well pick what's going to make you feel better, and help you have a better day.
5 minutes means we're not going to be doing makeup contouring, or using hair tools, or wearing shapewear... we're doing 5 minutes, for real!

I think we have to convince ourselves we’re worth the effort. I decided to wear a cute summer dress yesterday. I went to the recycling depot and then popped into Costco. No event just a normal day, but I felt good. I think I was smiling more and people were smiling back. I guess if we feel good about ourselves it’s reflected in our attitude. 😊

Until recently I "saved" my nice clothes. Not sure what special event I was waiting for.Now I use all my fancy things( clothes/china/grandmas silverware) every day. It's so much fun!

For me choosing clothes takes time so I always have three outfits ready to choose if I want a quick change. I also have a basic choice of jewelry ready. I like to get ready quickly so I know your tips are true! Thanks 💕

Wow, I was admiring your hair, because mine is stick-straight and does NOTHING, and I love that yours has waves and texture.

Thank you! I haven't had my hair that long in a long time and I've almost forgotten about this texture!

As a fair silver-haired 59yo I've discovered I need to put on eyebrows. Mine have pretty much disappeared (sparse and silver). It took a little bit to get used to them. I use men's beard dye to darken them every 2 months or so, pluck the strays, and use taupe pencil to fill where needed. Plus lip colour. A bit of concealer under the brows helps to sharpen/define the bottom border of the brows and brighten my eyres.

I’ve always said “It takes just as much time to put something beautiful on as something ugly.” Plus, I don’t find spandex gym clothes comfortable.

This is a quick “ thank you” for mentioning in one of your videos to always carry tweezers with you. I am out shopping and just did a mirror check. Needed some major tweezing!! Now I can continue my shopping trip in peace.😂

Thank you for your videos! You mentioned 'soft pants.' I'd like a video about them. I'm a petite (and I'm over 65). I have yet to find a soft pair of pants which are flattering.

I learned these lessons when I turned 28. In my early 20s I wore ankle length dresses that I made myself. I slept in them then got up and wore them to class. (This was a million years ago ) People in general acted like they were either appalled or frightened by me. I had no tattoos or piercings. When I turned 30 I revamped my style slightly and wore contemporary styles. Like it or leave it - this small change elevated my life in amazing degrees.

Inner peace and setting up your go to items will create an interesting and energetic appearance, any day! You never know what you’re influencing around you! I once saw a random person with a very simple champagne colored outfit, it appeared silky and flowing and her hair was very free, it just floored me! I was influenced to study what would work for me!

I have a hard time creating an outfit when I'm pressed for time. I have "pre-assembled" outfits at the front of my closet. I've made one for each occasion, MIL dropping by in ten minutes/work/grocery store etc.. The stress it has saved me is tremendous. ❤Love your channel, thank you for your work.

I'm facing the fact that I wear t-shirts ALL the time. Why? I have them . Theyr'e comfortable. And they're there and require NO upkeep. But why couldn't I wear a cuter top say 2X a week. Yes. I might have to iron two new otems every week, but so what? Also, I could just put on lipstick...what the heck? so I'm getting up from this vid and putting on lipstick...and maybe some earrings. BBL

I think you might be looking for "make stylish choices". Following comment related to a different video. You are a scarf tide under a hat. I did that today. My hubby kept commenting on it. He is very glad that I started watching you. No one else commented are my ball joint choice as you said in a different video. But he did about 4x during the day😊

Per yoga pants: I am an exercise instructor. And after I teach is when I often go out to run errands. My problem is, I'm already wearing workout clothes, and it takes a lot more effort to pack a change of clothes and change before going to said errands. I might also add that my exercise clothes are pretty cute. 😅 But now I'm just making excuses... All that to say, I am fine with wearing my yoga pants out sometimes, but do make an effort at other times.

You might be an outlier! I'd probably do the same or throw a loose dress over.

@PoshPilgrim1776 3 ай бұрын

You could pull on a casual knit mini skirt over the yoga pants (I have a couple of striped ones) or wrap a scarf like a pareo. Either would fit in a large handbag. No jiggle butt or cameltoe on display.

Thank you, this needed to be said, and more people need to get on board. No one should be offended if people treat them differently when they walk out of the house wearing their pajamas. My parents grew up in Europe when there was no work, they didn't have much, but what they had was good. Their may have had three outfits but they were nice. They even had embroidered sheets and pillowcases! If someone is truly poor and has NOTHING, then I understand. But that's a little hard to do these days given all the government handouts, and you can make up a nice outfit from Goodwill for less than $10.00. No excuses.

It's a little harder to make the effort if you're just going to the grocery store, but it's so worth it to feel good about your appearance. And who knows, you may run into a friend or coworker at the store and wish you were more presentable.

jewelry & young children don't usually work... hanging earrings & necklaces get tugged on & bracelettes and rings often interfere with holding little hands. skirts make it hard to sit on the floor & unfastened shoes are challenging to run in sorry. strong pass on this one for me, at least for this time period--i choose being kid-friendly

Anji and ash, chewable charm, and I think bloom all make teething necklaces that are safe for even babies and toddlers. I wear skorts or thin gym shorts under my dresses. I also have slip on leather sneakers but they have elastic (kind of Like vans). I can run in those shoes and they have arch support. -I hope that gives you ideas of you want alternatives (from a sometimes stylish but sometimes not mom of three)😊
