Mondays suck! But the suckiest of all the sucky Mondays is without a doubt the one that follows the holiday season.
You're either coming back from vacay where you planted your lazy ass on the beach sipping some obnoxiously sugary pink drink all day long (lucky!). Or you spent the holiday time off galivanting around the city from party to party sipping cheap champagne on New Year's Eve and subsequently ending up in a stranger's bed in another borough on New Year's Day (the new year, new me thang is already off to a rocky start but you have time to get your act together, girl!)
One of your resolutions might be to slay at work this year but cut yourself some slack for your performance today. You're cranky, tired, possibly hungover and need time to ease back into that bitchy boss you completely forgot existed who is already hounding you about deadlines for the week. Since you have the Monday morning, post-vacation blues, here are 5 things to do or see to cheer you up:
1. Follow this puppy on Instagram, so you can do that white girl squeal of cuteness at your office desk.
2. Realize that you relatively make smart decisions, as opposed to this dude.
3. Enjoy the sheer awesomeness of Jaden Smith screwing with gender norms yet again by starring in the spring Louis Vuitton womenswear campaign and rocking a skirt. YAS!
4. Take a minute to check out the #GirlLove Challenge and rejoice over how much women are standing up for each other these days!
5. Get a retail high by buying this under $100 slip dress that will look good with everything. Trust me (and Harper's Bazaar), slip dresses are going to be everywhere this year.
