It takes a month for me to realize that I’m really not going back into the office anytime soon. Before this realization hits me, this is my daily routine:

Wake up. Roll over. Log into my computer. Stay behind my computer until 5. Log off. Rinse and repeat.

I’m not ashamed to say – well maybe a little – that I didn’t get dressed up.

BIG MISTAKE!

The fact is, for all you work-at-home people like myself, keeping a schedule as close to what it would have been before quarantine hit is key to establishing consistency.

Otherwise, you’ll end up like me. I gained 8.6 pounds during this COVID-19 pandemic and that’s because I broke my routine.

Time to Dress Up, Beans

It sounds silly, but it really isn’t. It was time for me to dress up during quarantine.

Getting dressed up, rocking that cute outfit helps to not only establish a routine, but it helps you to mentally keep yourself connected to the outside world.

My friend, this Coronavirus pandemic is no joke. Being in a space where you’re told to stay home and self quarantine can be downright depressing.

Keeping your schedule as close as possible to what we knew pre-quarantine is vital. For me, that means finding those easy, comfortable quarantine outfits that make me feel cute and still accessible to the outside world.

See below for a few of my quarantine looks.
