When the pandemic first began, my colleague, Senior Fashion Writer Liana www.goldengoosers.com Satenstein wrote about the psychological power of your sartorial decisions. She interviewed Professor Francis T. McAndrew from Knox College in Illinois who specializes in environmental psychology and isolation.

Lunn, the daughter of a weaver and a proponent of slow fashion, has a custom atelier in Copenhagen, where she trained at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts as a designer. Her studies weren't motivated by launching a brand. It was just learning to use your hands, she explains.

After over an hour spent at a Sephora Golden Goose Sale swiping variations of red-red lipsticks on the back of my hand, I finally found the perfect shade of red. I paid no attention to the brand; my only criteria was that the winning mark on my body I ended up with streaks on both hands that then moved up my wrists contained no trace of a bluish-purply undertone. I was looking for a scarlet red, red like a poppy flower, not a pomegranate seed.

When we went into lockdown, I could not justify wearing any of my most beloved shoes. It seemed wrong, like opening your finest bottle of Champagne when you are home alone. As the creator of the Instagram account thecloglife, I have come to see clogs as not just comfortable and practical but celebratory.

But in the spirit of enjoying a bountiful feast free of worry, a bold lip may not be the most practical option for all. Makeup artist Patrick Ta-whose clientele is comprised of perpetual bombshells like Gigi Hadid, Chrissy Teigen, and Emily Ratajkowski-suggests focusing on a luminous soft-focus glow using a creamy concealer on the center of the face as needed and a featherweight highlighter to strobe the cheekbones, temples, and other areas of the face where light hits naturally. It gives you coverage, but also brightens and adds dimension to the face, he explains.
