15 Ways To Improve Your Physical Appearance

Dress: Sassy Sweet Modesty (sold out)

We are all striving to be the best version of ourselves and in doing so, we want to be able to put our best foot forward. Though all of our attention should not be on our physical appearance, it is the first impression others have of us and greatly contributes to our own feelings of confidence and self-assurance. Here are some great ways you can improve your physical appearance, without making drastic changes:

Early to Bed, Early to Rise: Get plenty of sleep to look more rested. Aim for seven to eight hours a night for the best results. Be careful of oversleeping as well. 

Drink Enough Water: When we are dehydrated, we are actually more fatigued and it shows in our skin. In fact, it can even make us look older than we are. Shoot for drinking more water and less of the sugary or carbonated drinks.

Practice Affirmations: Look at yourself in the mirror each morning and repeat to yourself the encouragement you need to get going each day. As mentioned here, having these affirmations can help you have more energy and put that extra pep in your step. 

Exercise Regularly: Be sure to incorporate both cardio and weight training to increase lean muscle tissue and decrease fat storage. This will lead to a more trim physical appearance, not to mention you will have more energy, a better immune system, and greater overall health. 

Reduce Salt Intake: A diet high in salt (often due to eating processed foods or adding salt to foods) can lead to water retention and bloating. Focus on eating fresh fruits and vegetables, along with low sodium foods to counter these negative effects.

Buy Flattering Clothing: Sizes can vary from store to store so focusing on the number on the tag is really pointless. Instead, it should really come down to how an article of clothing fits you. If it doesn’t fit well, it won’t look good. Make a point to buy flattering clothing rather than fixating on the size. 

Smile More Often: Studies have shown that a person who smiles is more attractive than a person who is not smiling. This simple change can work wonders and help others to feel more comfortable around you.  

Be Sun Smart: The sun can do serious damage to our skin. Instead of laying out for hours, lathered in lotions, avoid the sunlight when you can and wear sunscreen when you are outside. Keep a hat and sunglasses handy any time you will be outside for an extended period of time.

Improve Your Posture: Not only is it healthy for your spine, but it gives off a great sense of confidence. Keep your shoulders back, your core tight and your chin raised for better posture and an overall better appearance. 

Practice Good Hygiene: This may be a no brainer, but simply making sure you have showered, brushed your teeth, and are wearing clean clothes can make a big difference in your physical appearance.

Shape Your Eyebrows: For women, having well shaped eyebrows can be a great improvement. While you can go to a salon or spa to have them done professionally, there are plenty of videos and tutorials online for you to learn how to do it yourself.

Keep Facial Hair in Check: Beards are a popular sign of manliness, but an unkempt beard just looks messy. If you have facial hair, take the time to keep it trimmed and neat rather than letting it get unruly. 

Whiten Your Teeth: Should you think your pearly whites could be a little whiter, you might look into teeth whitening, but become discouraged by the prices. There are more economical ways to whiten teeth, such as swishing with hydrogen peroxide, that will yield good results. 

Avoid Tobacco and Alcohol: Both tobacco and alcohol can have a negative effect on our physical appearance, from oral hygiene to quite literally aging us. Look for healthier ways to socialize or cope that won’t wear so hard on you.

Manage Stress: Our stress levels can have an adverse effect on our physical appearance. Yoga, breathing exercises, writing in a journal, and having vent sessions with a friend are all great ways to manage stress.

While none of these suggestions are revolutionary, they can all have a powerful impact on not only your physical appearance, but more importantly how you feel about yourself. Confidence is something that shines through to add an extra glow to any outfit you have on.

Yellow Blossom Maxi Dress

Good morning and happy Monday friends! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend with friends and family. It's been three weeks now since having baby Olivia (birth story coming soon) and I am still recovering from my c-section and trying to adjust to my new schedule. Being a Mommy is the best thing ever and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Life is good!

During the summertime, there is nothing that I love more than maxi dresses. They are easy to wear, light weight, breathable, and there are so many different colors and prints to choose from. I'm not going to lie, a pretty good portion of my closet is filled with maxi dresses.

I love this fun yellow printed maxi dress. It's bright, flowy, and I love the ruffled detail around the neckline.

Bump Style: Black and White Damask Print Dress

Hello there! Thanks for stopping by to this little space of mine. I am (finally) getting back to blogging and it feels pretty great. Today I have to share this fantastic dress with you. Not only is this one of the dresses from my online boutique (Sassy Sweet Modesty), but even more so, I jumped up and down when I was actually able to squeeze this cute big belly of mine into a size medium. Wahoo!

I love everything about this dress. The print, the cut, the zipper all the way up the back, the 3/4 length sleeves, and the length of the dress. It's modest, chic, fashionable and I think it accentuates my baby bump perfectly.

Leaf Printed Wrap Dress with Belt Detail

Yes! We are 1/2 way through the week and Halloween is in just 2 days! What are you going to be? I am going to be a gypsy and E is going to be Sophia the First. Hubby has to work on Halloween (boooooo) because right now is one of our busiest times of the year for our company. But......we are doing Trunk or Treat tomorrow night at our church, so at least he will be able to go to that! 

Okay.. lets move on here and talk about this fantastic dress that I am wearing. I am in love with this leaf printed wrap dress. Everything about this dress is amazing. The quality/material, the detail of the print and the gold attached belt. 

If you didn't get a chance to read my previous post, I started my own online boutique company called Sassy Sweet Modesty (about a week ago) and I couldn't be more excited about it. I have had such a great response and have been shipping out orders. Thank you for your support and your business! 

These days, its so hard to find modest clothing that is chic, stylish and fashionable, yet modest. I have a huge passion for all things modest. Personally, when I dress modestly I believe it sends a message of purity and honor. It shows that I have self-respect and self-control over my body. When I dress modestly, I am saying that I posses inner qualities for which I should gain appropriate attention and value from others. I want to show and prove to others around the world that you can still dress modestly and look absolutely amazing! Right now my website is in the works and hopefully (fingers crossed) will be done soon. In the meantime, I have been accepting orders on Facebook and Instagram. If you have any questions or would like to order a specific item(s), you can contact me on FB, Instagram, or through email: kimberly@sassysweetmodesty.com
