10 Ways to Look Presentable When You're Having an "Off" Day

i'm sharing 10 ways to look presentable always even if you're having an off day [Music] hi everyone jennifer here and welcome back to the daily connoisseur i'm sharing 10 tips in today's video that you can choose from when you're having an off day and you just want to look presentable but don't have the energy or much effort to put into it today's video is brought to you by native deodorant we're going to learn more about them later on in the video but for now let's jump into the 10 tips now i want to say that you don't need to do all 10 tips on the same day that would be a bit extra but feel free to apply these to your life and see which one would fit for you on a particular day so tip number one is to use a headband now normally my off days involve having a bad hair day today i'm having pretty good hair day i have to say but a lot of the time i'm not having a good hair day and i have frizzy flyaways or my hair needs a blow-dry but i don't have time to do it so something i like to do is wear a headband i usually will tie my hair back in a ponytail pop on a headband i like top knot headbands because they give some height and drama to your look and i do this all the time it really helps me to feel presentable on those days when i just am not feeling it tip number two is to wear an easy updo so again you might not be having a good hair day your hair is not looking good down so it's good to have a really easy updo that you can do so quickly and that looks effortless so i've shared my easy and elegant chignon with you so many times on the channel but i'll just go over it quickly here in case you're new here's what i do i take the two front sections of hair and i separate them from the rest of my hair then at the base of my head i put together a low ponytail and then scrunch it all together in a messy bun and secure with an elastic then i take the two front sections of hair that i set aside and i wrap those around the messy bun and i pin them into place and it actually looks pretty presentable you'd be surprised and whenever i wear my hair like this somebody usually says something oh i like your hair that looks nice little do they know i'm having a bad hair day so the easy and elegant updo is something that anybody with mid to longer length hair can use if you're having a bad hair day tip number three on how to look presentable when you're having an off day is to choose your makeup vip and in this case vip stands for a very important priority so let's say you just don't have time to do your makeup like you would like to i would choose the one two or three things that you absolutely can't do without for me that's eyebrows lashes and lip gloss i can usually achieve this look in under five minutes so i just fill in my brows which by the way i'm growing them back with the vegamore and it's working really well so i'll do a video on that separately so in order to look presentable i will fill in my brows with a brow powder quickly put some mascara on and a little swipe of lip gloss and i can feel at least a bit more put together no i usually wouldn't have time for foundation or even under eye concealer on a really off day but if i have lashes brows and lips together i can really feel a little bit more presentable i'm going to break away now and tell you about the sponsor for today's video which is native deodorant now we all know that even before you try to look presentable you need to smell good and deodorant is an absolute must native is a vegan and cruelty free deodorant line that is also free of aluminum parabens and sulfates it has simple ingredients you know like coconut oil and shea butter i love that native offers so many delightful scents this time i chose sandalwood and fig tangerine and citrus blossom and paradise flower and amber for spring summer they also have really amazing body washes and they even have detoxifying charcoal toothpaste last year they donated over two million dollars worth of product to hope and comfort a non-profit organization to help deliver health and confidence to those in need three deodorants are normally 36 dollars but if you use my link and code you'll get them for 24 that's 33 off with my code you can also get 20 off the body wash and toothpaste so thank you so much to native for sponsoring today's video tip number four on how to look presentable always when you're having an off day is to select an all-in-one outfit so that could either be a dress or a jumpsuit but basically what i'm trying to say is you don't feel like matching something so when you're not feeling it just reach into your wardrobe and grab an all-in-one outfit if it's a dress you'll instantly feel more feminine and put together or if it's a jumpsuit it's all one piece and you'll still look sharp even though you're really casual i highly encourage you to try out the 10 item capsule wardrobe as well if you haven't already because that means every single thing that's hanging up in your wardrobe is look presentable always approved so you don't have to worry about anything you could literally choose any of your outfits and they're going to help you to look presentable always and you don't need to put the thought into it because you already did that when you curated your wardrobe tip number five is to have a go-to uniform that you know you're going to look good in and feel good in now for me apart from the dresses and the jumpsuits that would be the breton stripe top and a pair of jeans i will always go to this look when i'm just not feeling it and i don't feel like being fancy but i still want to look presentable the breton striped shirt looks good on absolutely everybody they come in different shapes and sizes so i have one that's uh like a traditional t-shirt like a breton stripe t-shirt i also have really oversized ones from mercy which i absolutely love so that's what i just go to that's my uniform when i'm not wearing dresses and jumpsuits i love a breton striped shirt and some jeans and i'm going to leave my favorite resources for you down below tip number six is to utilize a scarf so let's say all you can think of is putting on a pair of jeans and a white t-shirt and you're really not feeling it well you can always tie a scarf around your neck and feel extra polished there's so many different ways that you can tie a scarf you can even use it as a headband or as a head scarf wearing a scarf gives you that je ne sais quoi that sort of french air of mystery because not many people wear them and it's such a stylish accessory the one i'm showing you here is designed by my friend jen he from monkey tip number seven if you plan to be outside and you are not feeling presentable put on a nice big pair of sunglasses there is a reason why movie stars do this also audrey hepburn was really known for this those large oversized sunglasses i was not feeling presentable at all yesterday i was having a bad hair day i wasn't looking that hot and i put on a big old pair of sunglasses and i was talking to a lot of my friends outside and i just felt so much more presentable tip number eight requires a little bit of forethought but once you get into the routine of this it will help you on those off days and that is to have a plan for your nails now there's a reason why royalty is only allowed to wear certain shades of nail polish because if it chips it's not going to look that bad so i highly recommend that you come up with a plan for your nails even if you don't wear nail polish but just to keep them manicured and trimmed and filed and if you do that once a week you're probably going to be good for the whole week if you do wear nail polish make sure you wear it in a shade that if it chips it's not going to look bad i do like to wear lighter shades however i do love my reds as well and my burgundy and wine colors if you wear dark nail polish at the first sign of chipping either just fix it really quickly by adding a bit more polish to the chip or take it off entirely but this is going to help you look presentable and once you get into a nail routine you're really not going to have any problems with it i really don't have problems with my nails not looking presentable in fact they always look pretty good i'm proud of myself so you know i'm a huge advocate for londontown i will leave them along with my discount code in the info box down below tip number nine if you are not feeling your best is to wear a nice big hat this also involves being outside of course but if you're seeing a lot of people a nice wide brimmed hat is going to add some drama to your look make you look a little bit more mysterious and hide all of these things like your bad hair day a lot of your face it's going to be in the shade now and not exposed to the elements so i love a nice big sun hat so you could wear that or even if you like baseball caps you can definitely wear a baseball cap as well and i think that that looks really great on women but consider wearing a hat there's another reason why celebrities like to do this because it just hides things a little bit makes you look mysterious and still presentable and finally if you are coming from your gym class or you're in your workout clothes and you need to be out running errands all day i highly recommend keeping some sort of presentable cover-up with you so that you're not wandering around in a sports bra top and yoga pants for example so i think the best thing to do here is to have a long cardigan that you could pop over your outfit or maybe even a tunic or something like that so come up with a little tweak to this look after you finish working out that you could put on and adjust your wardrobe slightly let's say you just had a big workout session and you need to stop at the grocery store and go to the bank and do a few other things well what if you happen to run into your boss there or an important client or somebody that you really care about uh i think it's great to have something to cover up with so that you don't feel like you're underdressed okay you know how i feel about this subject so yes um a long cardigan this one's for mercy you could also wear a shawl wrap or something that goes over the whole look to make you feel presentable thank you so much for joining me here on the daily connoisseur and thank
