Obviously, I can’t control as much as I would like to believe that I can.

What I can control is me…

I can control my clothes and what I wear each day. I can control doing my hair and makeup everyday no matter how tired and sad I am. I can control keeping up with my lash lifts and hair appointments. All of these things help me feel a little better and…like me.

Feeling good on the outside helps you feel good on the inside. It gives you confidence, that you can take on the day and I need that more than ever right now.

Think about the way you feel when you put on and outfit you love…you feel good and have a more confident and optimistic outlook on the day. You put it on because it makes you feel good about yourself.

That’s why I put the effort in. It makes me feel confident in an “I can do this” way and it’s something I can control. Some days I look the part more than I feel it, but it does help.

My limited edition Tyrian Tieks came today with a crown box topper and a sweet note. As soon as I tried them on they made me feel regal. Maybe it’s the velvet. Maybe it’s the rich color. Whatever it is, they made me smile.

I choose to spoil myself and make myself feel fabulous. I’m still the same me that loves to feel pretty. Even with Eddie gone, that hasn’t changed.

I’m still grieving day in and day out and I can’t control that, but I can control how I treat myself, how I look on the outside and the confidence it gives me on the inside.
