Wear
One of my favorite sick day looks is a pair of cozy sweats tucked into thick socks. It's the appropriate balance of warmth, cuteness and IDGAF attitude. And if you must leave the house to stock up on more meds, or worse, to grab work from the office, hide your matted mane under an ironic beanie.
Keep dry skin moisturized with a luxurious lotion. I like this stress relief one by Aveeno, which has a lavender scent with serious therapeutic qualities (that is, if you can smell through your stuffed nose). Moisturize lips with EOS lip balm. Directions: apply liberally every 26.2 seconds, or as desired. And this revitalizing eye roll on has a cooling effect which does wonders for the look and feel of puffy eyes.
Entertainment
While you're awake, catch up on movies and reading. In my queue: Safe Haven, Olympus Has Fallen and Revenge. On my magazine stand: Lucky, BHG, Cosmo and Marie Claire. I also just started reading The Shoemaker's Wife on my Kindle.
Sustenance
I love Target's Archer Farms soups: microwave and done. And when I'm feeling under the weather, I chug Naked juice by the gallon for tons of delicious vitamins. Last, Emergen-C, Emergen-C, Emergen-C. Get well soon!
Aveeno and EOS are my life saves in terms of skincare, they really work amazing. I love the EOS lip balms and Aveeno hand lotions, made my skin and lips so soft and hydrated! :)

Thanks for visiting! This post totally hits home with me because I had allergies and a cold that hasn't fully gone away and I just got my wisdom teeth removed on Monday. I've been like this for the past week. I've had to moisturize a lot because I've been facing the wrath of rough tissues. The relax hat is so funny. You can only read it when you're looking at the mirror. :P
