How to dress at home
The curls and the dressing gown went out of fashion, but the look "dressed to kill" (literally speaking) has not been completely extinguished. The one that is elegant really gets fixed - or is fairly decent - in all occasions, also in the most recondite places, like our own house.
More than one disappointment we have taken to ask the famous cup of sugar to our brand new neighbor of 7 cm heel. and catch it in its lowest hours. Take care, do not lose you magic too.
The main problem we face is that we think that since nobody sees us, it gives us a little bit the same way of being dressed. That no one sees us, is relative, you always have to go to do some errands, or that someone shows up unexpectedly (hiding or not opening the door is even worse); children also count and are usually our best critics (and the most ruthless too), do not underestimate their opinion, they also need to look beautiful.
On the other hand and much more important, self-esteem and self-confidence also exist even if you are alone. If you work at home or it is simply Saturday, work and tasks are faced with much more decision, disposition and good humor arranged than a wink.
Get ready in the first hour
If from the morning you have not fixed yourself, then it is much more difficult for you to do it and you run the risk of getting used to going badly dressed as a rule.
If you know you're going out, dress like you would go out, but when you're at home wear a more comfortable shoe.
If you are going to be at home all day or have just arrived and can not stand the tube skirt anymore, try more comfortable clothes, specific to be at home, but never the pajamas.
Basic rules for dressing at home
- Do not go in sneakers, or at least avoid the huge 'zapatillotas' of towel cloth or with stuffed animals on the feet.
- It is also not necessary to wear heels, among other things because you annoy the neighbor below. Look for pretty shoes and reserve it to be at home: embroidered slippers, cloth dancers with rubber soles ...
- The tracksuit, symbol of the antiglamour, is contraindicated. Record this in your mind: "The integral tracksuit is only used for sports".
- Instead, you can wear a cotton knit pants (or leggings) and combine them with superior garments such as a white shirt, a blouse, a wide sweater ...
- If you are of the frioleras do not put the fleece of your husband to the first change, put on turtlenecks under your clothes or have reserved a thick cross-over jacket type robe.
- The jeans, as always, are also perfect for these occasions.
- Do not go unmasked, although you have your hair collected, comb and use beautiful accessories.
- That the clothes do not look old or dirty. Also renew your home clothes when necessary.
- Practice knowing how to be at home. Do not wear a little clothing in front of your children because you think there is trust, protect your own privacy dignify people, if you want to gain status in front of them, do not get caught up.
Count on your partner
You may arrive home late-usually later than you-and the ideal is to receive you moderately cute. There are many women who, for reasons of schedule, say goodbye and receive their husbands in evening dress and not just satin, I mean the two pieces, in printed cotton. If you are one of those who work with great executives, do not be at a disadvantage. Avoid removing your makeup immediately upon arrival, do not put a clip on the top of the head to have all the hair under control, comb and wait a tad before removing the contact lenses and put on the shell glasses.
