Did you wake up feeling fabulous this morning? I certainly did, thanks to my new cute pajamas. These pj’s are seriously what every girl needs. You could say I have no trouble sleeping, but I do have a few things I do every night that help me wake up prepared and feeling good the next morning. I actually just recently developed a night time routine and it really has made a difference in how my mornings go.
5 Things I Do to Prepare for a Fabulous Morning
- Develop a “Get Ready for Bed” routine. This might sound funny to you but I seriously cannot sleep without my ceiling fan on. It might just be the sound of it, but when it’s not on I will lay awake all night. Trust me, I wake up so grumpy when I’m hot. I always turn my fan on, fill up my water bottle (even though I take one sip if anything), turn on my lamp and talk to my boyfriend before falling asleep. Find what works for you.
- Apply moisturizer. I have always had really sensitive skin so I avoided applying anything to my face at all costs. Just recently I tried out the OLEHENRIKSEN C-Rush Brightening Gel Creme and it has changed my skin completely. I apply it every night before bed and in the morning when I wake up. It gives my skin a natural glow and has not caused any breakouts.
- Prepare for the next morning. I never used to do this but ever since I started riding my horse before work I always prepare my breakfast for the next morning and lay out my clothing. That way, I wake up and I just grab the clothes that are laid out, grab my bag out of the fridge and off I go.
- Reflect. This is also something I just started doing recently but I have been trying to have less “screen time” before bed and instead either read, listen to music and just reflect on my day. I feel closest to God when I listen to praise and worship music so I like to play that while I’m winding down.
- Get yourself some cute pajamas. Look good, sleep good, feel good. Am I right? I am guilty of spending many years sleeping in a t-shirt and shorts and I finally upped my game and got myself some grown up pajamas. The pajamas I am wearing are sold out but a similar pair can be found here.

I love these tips–I definitely find preparing for the next day to be a timesaver. I usually don’t go so far as breakfast, but it’s good to know I could still utilize that option in the future.
I love this pajama set–it’s definitely on trend and really pretty. Thanks for sharing. The color is great on you.
Sophia Damasceno says
Yes, helps so much!

Love these PJ’s but I think I love your #1 tip more. I can not sleep without my fan either, or a glass of ice water, or my chapstick, or my new aveno stressfree lavender lotion LOL it throws me off when one thing is not there.
Sophia Damasceno says
It’s funny how that habit becomes a necessity.
