5 Ways to Look Well Put Together

As busy people, we might forget to work on how we present to the world. Hours working alone in your home office turn into days and next thing you know, you haven't showered in a week and there are stains on your shirt from Monday's lunch.

We all know that's not good for maintaining an upbeat, positive and affirming outlook. When we look good, we feel good but you don't have to be totally glammed out either.

Here are some tips for looking put -together when you spend most of your time indoors, in front of a computer, building your dreams.

5. Take some time to pamper yourself

It’s difficult to juggle working and life, but it’s important that you make some time for yourself. Setting aside some time once in a while to pamper yourself and take a bath, apply a face mask and give yourself a manicure will help you to de-stress and help you feel like you again.?Learn to put your phone down?and spend time taking care of yourself.

Being a solo preneur, a StartUp boss or a boss babe doesn't have to be a fashion-less endeavor.

Good luck, friends!
