With everything that’s been going on around us over the past year, it’s normal to feel stressed. And now that many of us are transitioning from working from home to going back to the office, it can really overwhelming and exhausting. So, how do you know when it’s time to take a mental health day? Chances are you’re long overdue for one. Here are four signs it’s time to take a mental health day.

You’re Always Tired

Are you getting the recommended seven to nine hours of sleep a night? When you’re stressed or anxious, falling asleep and staying asleep is really difficult. If you’re always tired and stuck in the vicious cycle of not being able to get a good night’s sleep, take a day off to sleep in or nap throughout the day. It may be just what you need to get back on track.

You’re Feeling Anxious

Anxiety affects your mental and physical health and it can result in panic attacks, racing thoughts, abdominal pain, or shortness of breath. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, take a day off and relax with deep breathing, yoga, meditation, and massages.

You Can’t Focus

Do you feel really scatterbrained or constantly distracted? Take a day to recharge and regroup, so you can go back to work stronger.

You’re Always Sick

When you’re feeling stressed, you’re more likely to get recurring colds and physical ailments. Mental and physical health are extremely connected, so when one suffers the other does as well. Rather than wait for a really bad cold to cause you to miss a week or so of work, take a mental health day to allow your system to recover.

Are you one of those people who holds onto clothes even after they don’t fit you? Some people have clothes sitting in the back of their closet from years ago when they were a few sizes smaller, but they can’t seem to bring themselves to get rid of them. While it may seem like there’s no harm in holding onto clothes on the off chance they’ll fit you again, it can wreak havoc on your mental and physical health. Here’s why you should finally get rid of your “skinny clothes”.

Even if you have room in your closet, what’s the point of keeping clothes that don’t fit you? It’s just a constant reminder that you’ve put on some weight. Putting on weight isn’t always a bad thing—being skinner doesn’t necessarily mean you’re healthier. When you were skinnier, you may have been engaging in disordered behaviors like restrictive eating or excessive dieting. Or you may have been underweight and unhealthy.

Holding onto clothes that don’t fit properly can make you feel bad about yourself and lead to negative thoughts. It also makes it hard to be present in the moment because you’re constantly thinking about the future and focusing on losing weight to fit back into the skinny clothes.

Remember, we’re in a pandemic, and weight gain is completely normal. What’s more important is to just get through COVID and to love yourself the way you are. There’s nothing more beautiful than self-love! Now throw away those skinny clothes!

The BET awards never disappoint when it comes to fashion. Celebrities strutted the red carpet in some fabulous and extra looks that were as daring as they were glamorous. We had trouble picking our favorites because there were so many winners this year. If we had to choose five, these celebrities made our best-dressed list.

Zendaya

If you thought this dress looked familiar, it’s because it was already on the red carpet at the BET Awards. Beyoncé wore a shortened version of this Versace dress for her first-ever BET Awards performance of “Crazy in Love” with Jay-Z. What better way to honor your idol than to wear their dress?

Lil Nas X

The rapper had two fabulous outfits. He started the night with this Andrea Grossi blue and white historical gown that honors Black culture. Later in the night, he changed into a fabulous Richard Quin floral pantsuit.

Megan Thee Stallion

The “Body” singer wore this daring white dress with a high slit with a diamond hip chain from Jean Paul Gaultier. Megan sure looked like a savage.

Chloe Bailey

The grown-ish actress looked sultry and sophisticated in this mesh Valentino gown that kept little to the imagination. She paired the dress with a matching black bra and high-waisted bottoms.

H.E.R.

H.E.R. always gives us some interesting red carpet looks that are totally memorable. This time around, she rocked this black blazer with sheer pants by Giorgio Armani.

It comes as no surprise that sweatpants are taking over our wardrobes. But did you know that they’re outselling jeans and leggings? We’ve been pretty much living in sweats over the past year, since we barely leave our homes. They’re just a bit more put-together than pajamas, but just as comfy. We don’t see the sweatpants trend going anywhere anytime soon and these are the ones you should add to your wardrobe.

Gray Sweatpants

If you own one pair of sweatpants, make sure they’re gray. They’re the OG of sweats and all of the fashionistas own a pair.

Tie-Dye Sweatpants

Last summer tie-dye was a huge trend and you were lucky if you got your hands on a pair of tie-dye joggers before they sold out. They’ll continue to be popular come summer 2021, so if you can’t get a pair, make your own.

Nylon Sweatpants

Sweatpants don’t have to be fleece-lined, they can also be made from nylon, making them sporty and lightweigtht.

Pastel Sweatpants

Perfect for spring and summer, pastel sweatpants will give your wardrobe a burst of color.

Linen Sweatpants

This loungewear piece is lightweight, making it ideal for summer and they look a bit more put together than your usual sweats.

Charcuterie boards used to be just cheeses, meats, crackers, and nuts, but now they’ve become so much more. Pretty much anything and everything has made it’s way to these boards, which make snacking more enjoyable. Here are some charcuterie boards trends to try this winter.

Valentine’s Day Snack Board

Valentine’s Day snack boards are here just in time for the holiday and they feature red, white, and pink themed foods with an emphasis on sweets like cupcakes, chocolate-covered strawberries, and cookies. If it’s heart-shaped, it belongs on the board.

Breakfast Board

The most important meal of the day has gotten a charcuterie board upgrade with bagels, pancakes, sandwiches, and pastries taking center stage. When it comes to these boards, it’s all about the toppings.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CEPQz5YHfNp/

Hot Chocolate Board

When it’s cold outside, there’s nothing better than getting nice and cozy by the fireplace with a hot chocolate charcuterie board. These boards include all of the hot cocoa essentials like cocoa powder, whipped cream, marshmallows, candy canes, chocolate chips, and cinnamon sticks.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8PASyOp3j5/

Super Bowl Board

The Super Bowl is the ultimate time to snack and this year it’s taking place on February 7. Making snacking easier by having all your foods in one place with these Super Bowl boards that include pretzels, chips, fruits, cheeses, meats, veggies, and dips.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CKfuj0DHu9x/

Sundae Board

These boards are perfect for holiday parties, kids’ sleepovers, and date night and they have tons of ice creams with pretty much any topping you can think of. Fruits, nuts, pretzels, cookies, and sauces are a must.

This year we saw some great at home hair colors and people weren’t afraid to be bold and bright with their hair colors. Celebrities gave us some great inspiration for dying our hair cool colors as a way to express themselves during the pandemic. These were the best celebrity hair colors of 2020.

Hilary Duff’s Blue Hair

Although Duff only had this bright blue hair for only a month before going back to the blonde she’s known for, this was a change we welcomed with open arms.

Ruby Rose’s Pink and Blue Hair

Ruby Rose is no stranger to dying her hair fun colors—we have seen slime green, trippy rainbow hair, and our favorite color—pink and blue hair. To debut the look, she captioned the photo, “What can I say!? Sometimes you just need to feel blue and other times you need pink to lighten your day.”

Halsey’s Rainbow Hair

When you can’t decide on one color, why not try all of the colors of the rainbow? Halsey looks like a mermaid with this fun hair color.

Lizzo’s Red Hair

Lizzo is among Taraji P. Henson, Bella Hadid, and Megan Thee Stallion who have all had red hair this color. “Y’all can’t handle red Lizzo,” the singer captioned the post debuting her red hair, which is so true.

Kaia Gerber’s Pink Hair

Kaia Gerber’s ombre pink hair is one of the more subtle ways to wear colored hair and it’s a great low-maintenance look you can try at home.

First dates are always so exciting, but planning them can be extremely stressful. You want to impress your date with your creativity by not picking a cookie-cutter first date like dinner and a movie. With the colder weather, there are fewer options available to be creative, but we’ve got four date ideas that will impress anyone!

Workout Class

A little competition is good for everyone and there are so many options available for any sports lover. Try yoga or boxing, we guarantee you’ll be in a good mood at the end of the class.

Cooking Class

Let’s be honest, part of the reason we enjoy going on dates is the food. Cooking classes are much more exciting and interesting than dining at a restaurant. Get to know what foods your date likes and dislikes. If you’re not feeling your date at least you got to eat a meal.

Ice Skating

There is no winter activity more classic than ice-skating. This is a great way to establish touch without the pressure on a first date because you’ll be reaching for each other for support. Enjoy some hot chocolate with marshmallows to warm you up.

Drive-In Movie

We may have said that watching a movie is boring, but going to see a drive-in movie can be really fun. You and your date can bring your favorite snacks and a drive-in is a lot more intimate than a movie theater. You can talk during the movie and get to know each other.

It comes as no surprise that sweatpants are taking over our wardrobes. But did you know that they’re outselling jeans and leggings? We’ve been pretty much living in sweats over the past year, since we barely leave our homes. They’re just a bit more put-together than pajamas, but just as comfy. We don’t see the sweatpants trend going anywhere anytime soon and these are the ones you should add to your wardrobe.

Gray Sweatpants

If you own one pair of sweatpants, make sure they’re gray. They’re the OG of sweats and all of the fashionistas own a pair.

Tie-Dye Sweatpants

Last summer tie-dye was a huge trend and you were lucky if you got your hands on a pair of tie-dye joggers before they sold out. They’ll continue to be popular come summer 2021, so if you can’t get a pair, make your own.

Nylon Sweatpants

Sweatpants don’t have to be fleece-lined, they can also be made from nylon, making them sporty and lightweigtht.

Pastel Sweatpants

Perfect for spring and summer, pastel sweatpants will give your wardrobe a burst of color.

Linen Sweatpants

This loungewear piece is lightweight, making it ideal for summer and they look a bit more put together than your usual sweats.

Charcuterie boards used to be just cheeses, meats, crackers, and nuts, but now they’ve become so much more. Pretty much anything and everything has made it’s way to these boards, which make snacking more enjoyable. Here are some charcuterie boards trends to try this winter.

Valentine’s Day Snack Board

Valentine’s Day snack boards are here just in time for the holiday and they feature red, white, and pink themed foods with an emphasis on sweets like cupcakes, chocolate-covered strawberries, and cookies. If it’s heart-shaped, it belongs on the board.

Breakfast Board

The most important meal of the day has gotten a charcuterie board upgrade with bagels, pancakes, sandwiches, and pastries taking center stage. When it comes to these boards, it’s all about the toppings.

Hot Chocolate Board

When it’s cold outside, there’s nothing better than getting nice and cozy by the fireplace with a hot chocolate charcuterie board. These boards include all of the hot cocoa essentials like cocoa powder, whipped cream, marshmallows, candy canes, chocolate chips, and cinnamon sticks.

Super Bowl Board

The Super Bowl is the ultimate time to snack and this year it’s taking place on February 7. Making snacking easier by having all your foods in one place with these Super Bowl boards that include pretzels, chips, fruits, cheeses, meats, veggies, and dips.

Sundae Board

These boards are perfect for holiday parties, kids’ sleepovers, and date night and they have tons of ice creams with pretty much any topping you can think of. Fruits, nuts, pretzels, cookies, and sauces are a must.

This year we saw some great at home hair colors and people weren’t afraid to be bold and bright with their hair colors. Celebrities gave us some great inspiration for dying our hair cool colors as a way to express themselves during the pandemic. These were the best celebrity hair colors of 2020.

Hilary Duff’s Blue Hair

Although Duff only had this bright blue hair for only a month before going back to the blonde she’s known for, this was a change we welcomed with open arms.

Ruby Rose’s Pink and Blue Hair

Ruby Rose is no stranger to dying her hair fun colors—we have seen slime green, trippy rainbow hair, and our favorite color—pink and blue hair. To debut the look, she captioned the photo, “What can I say!? Sometimes you just need to feel blue and other times you need pink to lighten your day.”

Halsey’s Rainbow Hair

When you can’t decide on one color, why not try all of the colors of the rainbow? Halsey looks like a mermaid with this fun hair color.

Lizzo’s Red Hair

Lizzo is among Taraji P. Henson, Bella Hadid, and Megan Thee Stallion who have all had red hair this color. “Y’all can’t handle red Lizzo,” the singer captioned the post debuting her red hair, which is so true.

Kaia Gerber’s Pink Hair

Kaia Gerber’s ombre pink hair is one of the more subtle ways to wear colored hair and it’s a great low-maintenance look you can try at home.

First dates are always so exciting, but planning them can be extremely stressful. You want to impress your date with your creativity by not picking a cookie-cutter first date like dinner and a movie. With the colder weather, there are fewer options available to be creative, but we’ve got four date ideas that will impress anyone!

Workout Class

A little competition is good for everyone and there are so many options available for any sports lover. Try yoga or boxing, we guarantee you’ll be in a good mood at the end of the class.

Cooking Class

Let’s be honest, part of the reason we enjoy going on dates is the food. Cooking classes are much more exciting and interesting than dining at a restaurant. Get to know what foods your date likes and dislikes. If you’re not feeling your date at least you got to eat a meal.

Ice Skating

There is no winter activity more classic than ice-skating. This is a great way to establish touch without the pressure on a first date because you’ll be reaching for each other for support. Enjoy some hot chocolate with marshmallows to warm you up.

Drive-In Movie

We may have said that watching a movie is boring, but going to see a drive-in movie can be really fun. You and your date can bring your favorite snacks and a drive-in is a lot more intimate than a movie theater. You can talk during the movie and get to know each other.
