RETAIL THERAPY

Hey guys, it's already April, and that also means it's Stress Awareness Month. Not just stress, but overall health awareness, so why aren't we out shopping right now??!!! No, really, to get serious, we all have heard the phrase, "Retail Therapy", but it actually does do a body good. We want to find things that can help us cope with stress and difficult times, so we don't have bigger problems, once things have festered. When we look good, we feel good. When we are doing something that makes us happy, those serotonin levels kick into high gear, and we then can live to fight another day. If we are going to have to fight, we better fight in style. We have transitioned into Spring, even though the weather outside says different, so many of us still need to get out there and get looks for when the weather decides to officially get warmer.

What are the things that makes shopping for great fashion, feel so good? Is it simply getting something new, is it finding great deals, is it how the items we purchase makes us look and feel, or do we just find joy in being the best dressed our entire event calendar? What is it about "retail therapy", that can turn any upside day, right side up? I'm pretty sure it is a combination of all the above for most of us, and there is nothing wrong with that. We have so much to shop for right now, with Spring Break and the trips we have planned, Easter is right around the corner, and warmer days are somewhere near. There are a ton of reasons why retail therapy is an absolute must right now. So what styles are we rocking in these next few months that are equipped to keep us looking and feeling top tier, even on our worse days? From the looks of this weather, we still need to keep our options open, that's for sure!!! Let's get into this inspo that will have us ready for a week in the DR, a best girlfriend's brunch, Easter, as well as those iffy weather days that just don't make sense.

Remember life will always be lifing, so it's important to hold on to the little things that can bring a smile to any face. Buy the dress, take the trip, take off and sleep in, do whatever it takes to achieve and maintain a healthy self in this crazy world we live in now. Happy shopping!!!!
