10 pamper activites you can do whilst in bed

Happy October everyone! I made a list of pampering rituals you can do while in bed, when you are ready to unwind after a long day but are also perfectly poised to face plant a bed aka me. They are perfect for the end of a long day, they feel extremely delicious but you won't have to move an inch (well, nearly) do anything or even get out of bed... yes I went there.

How to sleep better, get better sleep

 Hey all! Here are some Sleeping Beauty inspired tips, how to sleep deeply and soundly at night, some serious sleep hacks and tips to have better sleep and feel less stressed at bedtime. You know I love my 'fluffy bunny' posts but I wanted to include some real, unfussy, actionable tips to get you going and offer some real help to make bedtime a happier, more stress free experience.

Although, please note! These tips do not replace medical advice and do not reflect the severity of symptoms that afflict those suffering with forms of mental illness or sleep disorders.
1. Trying a sleep mask - might just be the ultimate sneaky hack you've been looking for! Maybe it's something about being able to pull fabric over your eyes (but still being able to breathe haha), totally shutting out the light or losing sense of your surroundings that helps to soothe you back to sleep when you wake in the night. I really recommend trying it! Some eye masks are even lined with silk to aid the skin in its restorative process and prevent signs of aging.

How to look seriously sultry, on a budget

I thought I would try something a bit different as now autumn is here, how to be seriously sultry on a budget, from a fashion and aesthetical point of view. Sulty doesn't have to mean sexy, sultry can be powerful, flamboyant, mysterious, it can represent a powerful means of dressing oneself and a way of making a statement. An expression of identity and who we are, it's like our normal style, taken underground. Here is how to be a femme fatale with these autumn and winter outfit ideas...

1. Sultry is texturally rich - sultry is tieing textures together to create a sensuous way of dressing. Different textures like matte and glossy add dimension and can turn you in to a badass ninja lady haha. In this way sultry is quite a maximalist style, yet worn minimally, powerful velvet, satins, quilting, lace all make up its texture palette and will be perfect for creating autumn and winter outfits. Try a velvet scrunchie you can match to your outfit for instant power!
