The other day I woke up feeling like a fish swimming upstream. It all began with a bad night of sleep (thanks to my teensy bun getting the hiccups) that started a domino effect of not so great inconveniences—a funky hair situation was the cherry on top. Thank goodness for hats, caffeine, concealer and reliable wardrobe basics to nudge me out of my morning slump. I know what all you mamas are thinking right now, get prepared! Which was the first thing I thought about on a morning like this and decided it was the silver lining of the whole day, practice. But motherhood aside, everyone can relate to a rough morning start. Which is why I’m sharing these ten necessities to truck through the day when all you want to do is hit the snooze button. A few beauty tricks, a casual look and a hat to cover untamed hair.
