It’s been 10 weeks since I started working from home due to the quarantine order in Washington state. Since then, I have really simplified many areas of my beauty routine. For example, no more lash extensions, manicures/pedicures, or really any jewelry. I haven’t even worn my wedding rings in months! Literally the only jewelry I wear now are these gold earrings, which are so comfortable. I own a few pairs of earrings from AuRate and they’re all in heavy rotation. They’re handmade in New York of 14k gold. I shower in them, sleep in them, and they still look brand new.

Aside from a more streamlined beauty routine, I have also not worn any clothes other than activewear/loungewear (except for the one time I put on pants to celebrate my birthday in quarantine). I think these external simplifications are a reflection of embracing a pared down, slow-paced life right now. I’ve picked back up some of my hobbies, like guitar, an instrument I’ve played since I was 16 but less so in recent years. I’ve been staying active, going on walks, working out, etc. almost daily. I put on a podcast or my Spotify playlist and enjoy cooking or doing some chores. There are a lot of healthier routines I’ve adopted during this stay-at-home period that I hope to take away even after life returns to normal…

So dainty and simple! I love! I was so interested to see what the singular large golden piece was going to look like, it is so unique, I’ve never seen one like it before!
I really need a comfortable pair of earrings for everyday wear and these look perfect. I am also loving those sweatpants I am definitely going to have to get a pair!
