Lately, I’ve been going through a few rough patches (health-wise) in my life and some days I find it hard finding the positive in each day. I’m sure we have all experienced at one time or another. I’m not going to go into all of it because that can be a whole other blog post. Sometimes I’ve learned it’s what you make of the situation and a lot of times I find it’s the small things in life that help us through the tough times. They are just small little things that can brighten your day- these are just a few things I enjoy doing…
Dancing
This is probably the number one thing I love to do when I’m in a funk. It’s takes me to another world to choreograph a dance, especially lyrical dance. It’s gets my mind off everything that’s going on in my life.
Music
Putting on your favorite music can set you into an uplifting mood and this for me kind of goes hand in hand with dance. I put on music that resonates with my life- some music I love is lately is Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, and The Chainsmokers.
Treat Yourself
Whether it’s with food, your favorite drink, or some retail therapy, it’s sure to brighten your day! Love getting a Dunkin iced tea or doing some online shopping can get your mind off things.
Put Yourself Together
For me, I feel my best when I do my hair, put on some makeup, and get dressed in my best outfits. Just like this outfit I’m wearing here, I love wearing pleated skirts and moto jackets and this moto jacket makes me feel super chic and it’s under $100!! I paired it with this absolutely gorgeous silky looking lace camisole… for only $28 too!!
Moto Jacket (under $100) | Lace Camisole (under $28!!) | Club Monaco Pleated Skirt (also love this one & this one) | French Connection Nude Pumps | X Cuff | Earrings | Tory Burch Bag
I hope you enjoyed this post and got a few ideas for yourself when you need a little pick me up. What are your favorite things to do?

You’re such a princess and looking super stylish and elegant! O’m loving your jacket and skirt. 🙂
Dancing and some self-love are the best weapons to beat the bad day…
