A 2000s Fall Night Routine

• Open your window for a couple minutes and appreciate the autumn air!

• Make your bed (if it isn’t already made), fluff your pillows, and fold your favourite chunky knit blanket at the end

• Turn on warm lamps or fairy lights and turn off the harsh main light (it ruins the mood).

• Light a vanilla, pumpkin spice, or cinnamon candle and play a relaxing, 2000s autumn playlist.

• Tidy your desk or vanity, put away clothes, and do anything you can to make your room look the comfiest it ever has.

• Start making your favourite comfort food while your playlist continues playing!

• Anything warm and cozy works perfectly, if you can’t think of anything maybe try: creamy pasta, tomato soup with a grilled cheese, baked mac & cheese or a bowl of pumpkin ravioli.

• Pour yourself an autumn drink like hot chocolate, chai, warm apple cider or a classic cup of tea if you don’t want anything too fancy.

• Eat slowly by the candlelight/warm lighting and watch the rain outside or your favourite 2000s tv show, with your phone tucked away.

• Clear up your dishes and leave the kitchen feeling calm and clean before settling into your perfect fall night.

• Put your 2000s playlist back on, let the bathroom fill with steam, pick out the PJs you’re going to wear and light a pumpkin spice candle

• Shampoo twice and apply conditioner for soft and glossy hair (try find seasonal shampoo/conditioners if you can).

• Cleanse with a vanilla, brown sugar, or cozy cashmere body wash that smells like pure autumn.

• Exfoliate your skin and shave! (If it’s part of your routine)

• Step out, wrap up in a fluffy towel, and apply a rich vanilla body lotion while your skin is still warm and damp.

• Complete your nighttime skincare routine with a gentle cleanser, hydrating serum and a nourishing moisturiser.

• Apply lip balm, hand cream and a bit of vanilla scented body butter to feel even more cozy.

• Change into matching Victoria’s Secret PINK pajamas or an oversized Hollister tee with fluffy socks.

• Brush your hair, add a little hair oil or a leave in hair mask to the ends, and get completely comfy for the rest of your evening.

• Get warm and comfy in your bed with a fluffy blanket and your current read! (For autumn I definitely recommend crime books like A Good Girls Guide To Murder)

• Journal a few pages about your day, thoughts or tomorrows dreams while a 2000s movie plays in the background.

• Write down some things that you’re grateful for and what you want to achieve this autumn season.

• Spend a few minutes just simply watching the rain without distraction before completely relaxing.

• Make yourself another cozy little drink like hot chocolate, vanilla chai, warm apple cider or cinnamon tea!

• Warm up a nice sweet treat such as: a cinnamon roll, a pumpkin loaf, chocolate chip cookies, or caramel popcorn. You could also make these yourself if it’s the weekend and you have extra time!

• Watch an episode of Gilmore Girls or your favourite 2000s comfort movie under a warm and fluffy blanket.

• Enjoy the moment with your candles glowing, your pjs on and your phone away for the night!

• Don’t forget to brush your teeth!!

• Pack your bag with your wallet, headphones, lip gloss, journal and everything that you’ll end up needing.

• Lay out and plan tomorrows outfit, from your hollister henley and bootcut jeans to your cozy UGGs.

• Refill your water bottle and place it in the fridge for a refreshing morning.

• Set your alarm, charge your phone/headphones, and leave everything ready by the door.

• Spray your pillow with a vanilla pillow mist and fluff out your duvet.

• Switch off your fairy lights, leaving only a gentle warm light from your bedside lamp for a few minutes.

• Put your phone on Do Not Disturb and leave it across the room.

• Snuggle into bed, relax completely and drift off for the night knowing that everything is ready for you tomorrow morning.
