becoming the hot shit

Wear white billowing dresses that gather delicately around your ankles

Spray your pillows with essential oils like lavender or eucalyptus to soothe you into the arms of sweet sleep.

Keep fresh flowers in every room you dwell

Wear perfume with tuber rose and jasmine so that when your lovers lips graze your neck they breathe in delight

Walk bare foot through grass, let them bathe in life

Have a bath filled with almond milk to soften skin and rose petals for beauty

Gold jewellery to adorn your body

Apply a shimmering body oil so that when your skin catches the light, their mortals eyes can tremble before you.

Always walk with your shoulders back and head held high, you are a queen and queens bow to no one.

Apply lipstick in the shade of your enemies blood and smile before them

Heels to announce your presence

Twist your hair into an elegant up-do so that they me see your ethereal face.

Eat wine and cheese, reclining on a soft cushioned couch before an open window

Classical music to compliment your old soul

Learn languages and speak them with conviction

Dance like a swan delicately beneath the moonlight

People are sooo nosy, it's human nature to know what everyone is doing at all times. but you don't know what the person you're telling something to is going to do with that information, which is why it's better to stay private.

WHEN to stay private:

- plans you have in regards to your future

- how far along you are in an assignment or how well you did on something

- any ideas you have regarding business or creative assignments

WHY stay private:

- people might steal your ideas or use your words against you

- make you feel bad about your ideas or thoughts

- does not give anyone who is not close to you any unnecessary insight into your life

- protects your peace

HOW to stay private:

- think before you speak and think about who you're speaking to

- stray away from any topics regarding yourself unless necessary, people love talking about themselves

Luxury on a budget is absolutely achievable! It's about focusing on creating an experience of indulgence and pampering, rather than just expensive things. Here are some ideas:

Redefine Luxury for You:

Focus on Experiences: Luxury isn't just material possessions. Think about what makes you feel truly pampered and relaxed. Is it a long, candlelit bath with a good book? A picnic in a scenic spot? Prioritize experiences that create lasting memories.

Quality over Quantity: Invest in a few key items you'll love and use for years, rather than buying a lot of cheap things. This could be anything from a luxurious body lotion to a cozy throw blanket.

Create a Luxurious Atmosphere at Home:

Declutter and Deep Clean: A clean and organized space instantly feels more luxurious. Light some scented candles, put on some calming music, and dim the lights for a spa-like atmosphere.

DIY Spa Treatments: Skip the expensive spa and recreate the experience at home. Give yourself a foot massage with homemade sugar scrub, use a facial mask made with natural ingredients, or draw a relaxing bath with essential oils.

Elevate Everyday Activities: Take the time to savor a cup of tea in the morning. Set the table for dinner with nice plates and silverware, even if it's just a simple meal.

Seek Out Free or Low-Cost Luxuries:

Embrace Nature: Take a hike in a beautiful park, have a picnic by the beach, or simply sit outside and enjoy the fresh air. Nature is a free and luxurious way to de-stress and reconnect.

Cultural Gems: Many museums and galleries offer free or discounted admission days. Check your local library for free museum passes or online resources for virtual tours of famous collections.

Learn a New Skill: Taking a free online class in something that interests you, like photography or cooking, can be a stimulating and luxurious way to spend your time.
