Quarantine List: Things to do while under quarantine

 

         Quarantine life is our new normal; what can we say? The medical experts say it is necessary to slow down the spread of the coronavirus epidemic and also not to overwhelm our hospitals and health sector. The situation in New York is really scary right now; I pray that it turns round for the better very soon. I have been glued to the TV watching all the reports and following all the updates about this epidemic and I would share my thoughts little by little on each post on the blog from now onwards. 

I know this is a fashion blog but it would be totally tone deaf not to mention what is going on in the world right now. I wrote out plans or check-lists on things to do while under quarantine and would like to share my list with you on here. The most important thing is to spend time with our family and loved ones safely while we pray and hope for healing and miracle.

What I want this Spring - Spring Wish List

            Ꚃhopping can be a form of therapy if done wisely and intentionally with great planning and this is why I like to have a wish-list or guide for every season. Since we are all spending more time at home now, it is a great time to shop for some home essentials. The first item on my list is a Bible. I believe now is a good time to get a new Bible in print to use for daily devotion/meditation. The world is presently in chaos due to the Covid-19 crisis and studying the bible and praying can be healing for our mental health at this time. I agree there are tons of Bible and Bible study Apps out there but their ease of use (on mobile devices) also defeat their benefit or purpose. We can start out studying on our Bible App and before we know it, we drift unto social media 😊 (funny but true) The items on my list also make for great gifts to family and friends

Tips to getting good rest + Casual style

          Ͳhe importance of sleep and rest at this time cannot be overemphasized. In order for our minds and body to feel great, we need to eat well balanced diet, get enough rest and get good exercise. The pics I am sharing in this post were taken on my last vacation to Florida last year. My family went on a fun trip to Disney world and it was so much fun all the way.

We spent a whole day on rides taking in the beautiful sounds and sights of the park.  Then we spent the rest of our trip at a couple of beaches in Tampa and Clearwater and came back home refreshed. This time, we are not able to go on trips or vacation as a result of the Covid-19 Pandemic but it is very important that we get good rest and clear our minds even if we have to do it "Staycation style."

My Wish-List for Mother's Day

                                     One / Two / Three / Four / Five / Six / Seven

               𐌼y Mother's Day wish List this year can also be a Gift Guide for you if you need some inspiration on what to get the young ladies/Mothers in your life. Gift giving is the main way we would all be celebrating this year as we practice social distancing and stay home under quarantine. First on my list is this puff-sleeved pink cotton dress from H&M. It is a lounging outfit that is comfy enough to wear while eating take-out at home with our close family and it would also make a great outfit paired with this color-block strappy sandals when it is finally time to socialize with others again. Face masks are very essential accessories right now and would make great gifts for family and friends. 

How to style Spring Florals

         Florals can be worn in any season even if it is winter or spring; it just depends on how it is styled. Usually, I wear my dark colored florals in the fall and winter season and lighter florals in the spring and summer. In this post I am wearing my dark florals in spring; a floral pencil skirt I purchased from White House, black Market a while back.

 In the winter months, I would pair the skirt with a black sweater or blazer but I chose to pair it with a white sweater now because it is spring and spring calls for lighter colors.  in order to elevate the spring styling a little more, I added the earrings as a pop of color. How is everyone doing? I hope you are doing great? I pray to God to guide and protect us as we go through this Pandemic. Thanks so much for reading.
