✧ make sure to use conditioner in your hair to achieve silky locks, decorating your hair with pearls, dainty flowers and adding shimmer spray that is green or blue tinged to look like you have just come out of the clear or murky waters. Styling your hair in a messy unkept braid with a strip of sea weed tied at the end, with long strands framing your face. Using sea salt spray for added texture! Another look may be; brushed out bed hair with a lotus tucked behind your ear.

✧ things to do: visiting places like ancient towers by the sea, lagoons, hidden caves tucked behind a waterfall, lakes surrounded by foliage, relaxing on a soft bed of moss. Having baths adored with water lilies, salts and flower petals, whilst you look out your window watching the moon. Make wishes with coins in fountains, drinking herbal/floral teas, water your garden regularly where you may have also planted some herbs that you use in home cooked meals, sing alluring hymns to yourself whilst out walking or brushing your hair, collect flowers and other things from nature, pressing them in your leather bound journal, which is also filled with your poetry and stories.
