Looking Pretty Makes Your Day Pretty!

Hi guys! Today's post is gonna be something a little different. It's gonna be like a motto/life lessen mix. Kinda. Maybe it's not like that at all and I'm just bad at explaining things. There's a good possibility that that is the answer.

Anyways, this is my motto. What I like to think and/or live my life by. A theory of mine, if you will. If you look pretty and/or feel pretty, you will have a good day. Even if you think that something bad is going to happen, I feel like looking pretty lessens the crap-load dropped on you throughout the day. Now I understand that there are just those days where you feel like looking like a complete bum, and I am in no way saying that you should not have those days. I get it, sometimes you just need 'em. But, I just feel like looking nice and trying to look nice will just brighten your mood. Like if somebody tells you something crappy, you can just say to yourself, "Hey, at least I look nice." If all else fails, you look pretty, nice, fantastic, all of the above.

I have evidence of my own that kind of proves this too.
Example #1: On Thursday (Valentine's Day) I decided I should at least attempt to look nice since it's a holiday and all. Thursday turned out to be a pretty great day. Trust me, Valentine's Day usually isn't my thing since I've never really had anyone to celebrate with other than my family. And I still didn't this year, but it was a great day.
Example #2: Today (Friday) was an early release. On early release days, everyone at school tends to wear sweatpants cause after school they're usually going back to bed. Well today, I wanted to look nice. I just felt like it. I straightened my hair, had on a really cute outfit, did my make-up all nice, the works. Well, I got a 13/15 on my AP bio quiz (like the hardest quiz all year), got a free 100% on my history quiz, did like nothing in school all day, and have been in a fantastic mood all day long. Then I had work tonight. I felt like keeping the trend going. So instead of keeping my hair in a boring, straight old ponytail, I curled my ponytail. I feel like curly hair looks nicer on me for some reason. I stuck a headband on, kept in my favorite leaf earrings, and reapplied mascara to make my lashes pop. My night and my mood were great.

One thought I have about this is when you look nice, more people give you compliments. Compliments make everyone feel good about themselves. This lifts your mood, which makes your day better. I like to think my theory/motto/life lessen is completely accurate, and that this is one of my genius moments. Plus, the use of the words theory and evidence makes me feel smart and scientific ;) Well, I think that's it. I hope I have thrust my knowledge upon you(: have a pretty day!
