Hurrah – that dreaded second month of the year is over. Here’s what I propose we do…
- Watch Emma Watson’s HeForShe campaign update this Sunday.
- Read a glossy magazine – in print – from cover to cover with a freshly brewed cuppa in hand.
- Buy a springtime jacket in a bright bright colour. The easiest way to pretend you know how to work the transitional months.
- Take a star-gazing course ahead of the spring/summer meteor showers and promise of clearer evening skies.
- Get your hair chopped and refreshed.
- Spend some time at home doing at-home nail art, watching “too many” episodes of something on Netflix and making homemade guac and chips.
- Leave a little comment on your favourite blogs.
- Tuck your turtleneck into a little leather skirt – we’re at the final hurdle of Winter Style Games!
- Buy those peep-toe cut-out boot sandal hybrids because they’re SO 10 Crosby by Derek Lam and basically ideal for preparing to be in spring.
- Refresh your lingerie drawer – kinda obsessed with Intimissimi and Cosabella right now.
- Slip some mirrored leather pointed toe flats into the collection.
- Marvel at Ella’s ridiculously perfect illustration skill and deck your living room in her work.
- Pack a towel, sandals and Instax and head to a beach.
- Those January dreams you had? Make them happen. Mindmap your end-goal, map out your on-the-way wishes and slowly but surely get $hit done.
- Go to an exhibition, shelve your inhibitions about feeling pretentious, switch your phone off and enjoy.
- Buy all of those peachy-pink lipsticks on your wishlist because you just KNOW you’ll wear them all once Easter arrives. Weird logic, eh? But it’s so true.
- Instead of rushing a phonecall or Skype session with a loved one, cancel plans for an afternoon, make a tea and hang out with them with your undivided attention.
- Shake it off.
- Send love notes and stickers to Taylor Swift on LINE.
- … Buy Mish this handbag.
