The Girls’ Guide To Getting Ready
|
Time to read 2 min
There are certain things the girls just get. The getting-ready rituals we look forward to, the things we somehow always find room for, and the choices that don’t need quite as much justification as we pretend they do.
And then there’s pink.
Feminine, playful and very hard to resist, it has a way of making the everyday feel that little bit more fun.
So, consider this our Girls’ Guide to the things we just get. A few unofficial rules, a lot of pink and absolutely no need to take any of it too seriously.
Rule #1: Getting Ready Is Part of the Plan
The reservation might be at seven, but the plans started hours ago.
Playlist on, everything shower done, makeup slowly taking over the vanity and at least three outfit options already on the bed. It’s all in the details, from the earrings you save for special occasions to the pinker shade of blush that makes you feel most beautiful.
This is where Juliette and Charlee feel right at home. Juliette keeps your makeup and beauty essentials together in one beautifully organised vanity case, while Charlee keeps your favourite jewellery safe and tangle-free. The perfect pair for taking your time getting ready.
Rule #2: Packing Light Is Open to Interpretation
There’s a particular optimism that comes with packing for a weekend away.
Three days somehow calls for ten outfits, the shoes need options, and that dress you haven’t worn in six months suddenly feels essential. Maybe you’ll wear it all, maybe you won’t, but having the choice is half the fun.
Enter Alexis. The weekender for the girls who know that “just bring the essentials” is entirely subjective. There’s room for the outfit changes, beauty favourites and all those little extras that become non-negotiable once the suitcase comes out.
Rule #3: A Pop of Pink Never Hurt Anyone
If your wardrobe looks anything like ours, it’s probably built around black, white, denim and every shade of neutral in between. Styling colour can feel a little daunting, but it doesn’t have to mean rethinking your whole wardrobe. A colourful bag is one of the easiest ways to experiment, adding something fun to the pieces you already know and love.
Madeline is exactly that. An easy pop of colour with two ways to wear, it’s the bag you can throw on when your favourite outfit needs a little something extra. From a simple jeans-and-tee day to plans that call for dressing up, a little pink has a way of pulling it all together.
Rule #4: The Hair Tools Are Coming
You can leave behind the fourth pair of shoes. Maybe.
The hair tools? Absolutely not.
The hair is every bit as much a part of the look as the outfit, shoes, jewellery and everything else you packed for it.
Whether it’s your Dyson, Shark or favourite styling tool, Margot makes travelling with your hair essentials easy. Everything stays organised and protected, with a matching heat mat ready for getting ready wherever you are.
Rule #5: Fun Is Reason Enough
Not everything needs a practical reason. Sometimes you choose the pink bag because it makes the outfit more fun, pack the extra dress because you might want it, or take a little longer getting ready simply because you enjoy it.
There’s beauty in letting the little things be exactly that. Choosing something simply because you love it, taking your time getting dressed, or having a little more fun with the details that make you feel most like yourself. Sometimes, that’s reason enough.
