OOTDs were one of the first things we threw out of the bus the moment we started the quarantine. But that doesn’t mean you can’t lounge at home in style, or just change into comfortable outfits when you’re studying or working. If you’ve been wearing the same outfits the past four months, maybe it’s time to stir things up!
Scented candles

Aromatherapy is a great way to go if you need some relaxation. Now that the rainy season is here, lighting a scented candle would be great to pair with the sounds of rain especially in evenings. These candles are usually curated with scents to provide different benefits, like lavender, which is perfect for when you need sound sleep.

One of the simplest ways to get things done is by putting them on a list. In this way, you’ll get to actually see everything you need to accomplish and get the motivation because ticking tasks off a list are just satisfying. Plus, making lists give you that sense of having your life together. (Really?)
