<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">After watching tv, movies, and YouTube nonstop for a month, I've turned off my screens and started reading regularly again.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In the first three weeks of social distancing, I did absolutely nothing but eat, do homework, eat, watch tv, and repeat. But this week, for my mental and physical health, I realized I needed to get back on my workout grind. I'm still waiting for a few things to come in the mail, but since I've figured out my routine and my essentials I wanted to share it with you all!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The <b>athleta salutation 7/8 leggings</b> are the best leggings I've ever worn. I'm also obsessed with the <b>lululemon wunder under full-on luxtreme</b>. I'm not as picky with sports bras, but I love the <b>Nike classic padded</b> because they don't have a bunch of straps in the back that make it complicated to put on. I've had the <b>APL Techloom Breeze</b> for almost 2 years now and I love them. I want to try the <b>adidas ultraboost</b> next.</span></div>

<br>
Every year I say 'new year, new me' and every year I mean it...at least for a couple of months. This year, I'm making serious changes in my life that will help me feel more myself than I have been for the past few years.<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
My mood has always been influenced by how I look and what I wear, which is why even on my worst days you'll see me wearing real clothes and you'll rarely ever catch me in sweatpants. In an effort to completely reinvent myself this year, I have to start with revamping my wardrobe. </div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">I love a good book in the morning, before bed, on a plane, etc. I did a lot of all of those things over winter break the past month. All three books I read are contemporary fiction, but the characters run the gamut as far as demographics, personalities, current place in life so each book was a very different experience.</span><br>

Happy Valentine's week! Even though it's a 'Hallmark Holiday', Valentine's day is one of my favorite holidays. I've never celebrated the holiday romantically, but what's more fun than a movie, dinner, and dancing with your best girls? I love to wear pink and red, so this week I've taken full advantage of the holiday to wear all of my rose-colored pieces, including this amazing pink sweater.<br>

Happy Wednesday! One of my New Year’s resolutions is to spend more time developing my personal style. This outfit exemplifies my personal style and I love that the pieces are unique. I used to share outfits on my blog all the time and even though I focus more on beauty than fashion, this is a personal blog and I want to share more outfits!<br>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">As sad as I am to be back in class, I glad I have the tan lines to take me back to last week’s weekend vacay. If you follow me on Instagram (</span><a href="http://instagram.com/misslaurenalston" style="font-family: inherit;">@misslaurenalston</a><span style="font-family: inherit;">), you would have seen that my family took a quick trip to Aruba to kick off the New Year. With 3 gals getting ready in the bathroom every morning, I noticed that between my mom, my sister, and I have very different vacation makeup routines that range from full coverage to all natural. My vacation makeup look is the perfect in-between to still look good in photos and feel confident in public without going overboard and having all of your makeup wash away in the salty sea.</span><br>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Today I'm bringing it back 3 years and doing an updated winter beauty look! Winter makeup looks are always so fun because there's always numerous parties and different looks to try. From metallic eyeshadow to a cranberry red lip, everyone can find a look they love! Last time, I worked with Adore Me to create a look inspired by their bra & panty sets; so this year I'm doing the same.</span><br>

Instead of flaunting my holiday party outfits or sharing my newest skincare (both of which I'll probably do later this month), I want to create a conversation and discussion with you! To kick off the 12 days until Christmas, we're talking about advent calendars!</span></div>

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and every year <a href="http://www.misslaurenalston.com/2017/11/im-thankful-for.html">I have so many things to be thankful for</a>. But, this year on the blog I'm fast forwarding through Thanksgiving and moving on to Black Friday! Better late than never, but I wanted to make sure this post went up so you all could take advantage of this weekend’s sales!</div>

A big part of having healthy hair, no matter which way you choose to wear it, is avoiding heat. I straighten my hair at least once a week, so on the six days in between, I try to avoid the flat iron at all costs. Sometimes it's unavoidable, but I've collected a couple simple styles that I can use no-heat necessary.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Habits are the driving force in my life. That sounds kind of extreme but in the transition to college and being substantially more independent, establishing and maintaining habits made everything simple. Last week, I finished Gretchen Rubin's <i>Better Than Before </i>and learned everything I wanted to know about forming and keeping habits. Since I'm a woman of the people, I'm going to save you the trouble of reading the book and share the most important, life-changing deets.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">So...here I am...one month later and back on the blog. When I wrote <a href="http://www.misslaurenalston.com/2018/07/farewell.html">my farewell post</a>, I had an inkling that I might be back in 2019 or late fall at the earliest. But, during my month-long hiatus, I realized that "misslaurenalston" is such an integral part of my identity. There are numerous other factors that brought me back here, but instead of listing them all out I'd rather get into my summer beauty essentials.</span><br>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The day before my Hong Kong flight I was in Urban Outfitters (when am I not there) picking up another pair of <a href="http://shopstyle.it/l/LtvZ">my favorite skinny jeans</a> (and they're super on sale!!). As I was wandering around the store, I realized that as much as I love those jeans (and I really do) I was not looking forward to wearing them for over 24 hours on the plane and in the airport. That's when I saw the dress. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; text-align: justify;">Let’s talk jet lag, it's the worst. It sucks to travel halfway around the world only to be too tired and sick to enjoy your new surroundings. There are so many tips and tricks out there for combatting jet lag and I’ve tried a lot of them. So here’s what works. My methods are tried and true, I did each and every one of these things during or after my flight to Hong Kong (which was a 36 hour travel day, 20+ hours were spent in the air) and I felt fresh as ever when I woke up this morning.</span><br>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A few days ago I realized that I've read so many books this month. I don't feel strongly enough about any of them to do a full book talk, so instead, I'm doing a quick roundup/recap!</span></div>
