Romanticizing a school day like the 2000s

(In autumn)

She wakes up to her alarm. The kind of alarm that's in the movies. The kind that makes you feel awesome, and want to dance straight out of bed. 

You'll have bought a deer (or any cute print) blanket. It makes it really feel like autumn, especially an autumn in the 2000s. You'll light a candle with a scent that's either just really good or a scent that feels like fall. Some scents for that is: Cinnamon, vanilla, apple, caramel, chai, and many more..

While you make your aesthetic breakfast, you have a CD playing music. (Or Spotify) I personally love The Bangles, Duran Duran, Queen, David Bowie.. etc. (Create many different playlists in the time you're bored! One for every occasion, mood, weather..)

She eats her breakfast just in time to pack her snacks for school. Basically an avocado toast, jam, scrambled eggs, or cinnamon, sugar and butter. The 2000s diva that she is she puts on a 2000s autumn outfit. For example, I bought 3 new tops today. One wine red short sleeve knitted top, one long sleeve wine red top and one grey V-neck with lace at the top. And an autumn jacket in brown, with buttons!

Romanticizing school means having a handbag, or a cute backpack. The colour palette: brown, red, navy, violet, khaki, (maybe maybe beige).

A fun idea to do would be vlogging the day with a camera. An older (lower quality) digi cam! You could do a vlog following the romanticizing autumn routine, lighting a candle, eating breakfast, watching Gilmore Girls, ootd (outfit of the day), then walking to school with wired headphones. In school if you're alone, take a moment to journal. Write in your diary.. Dear diary, today I..

A must have in bag at all times: Wired headphones!!

Now that you've packed everything you need, head to school. Of course you'll be wearing (fake) UGGs, a scarf, maybe a knitted hat (or) earmuffs. So, you're walking to school in the cutest outfit and suddenly you have reached it.

Take off the headphones if you must. (In my school you can't have them sadly) Then after getting to the locker you've decorated (Posted!!) , You put in your handbag,, grab your books and head to class. Now you're on your own angel.

- Au revoir for now angels💋

The outfits in school varies, some people are wearing jeans with a t-shirt, some just sweatsuits and others styling what they’ve just bought...
