We are lounging around the house, so what’s better than a cute tie-dye set to look cute and comfy in at home? We are loving tie dye print right now, and had a few requests to share some cute, and affordable sets you can wear around the house, or to go pick up food in!

The first two short sets (blue and pink) are on amazon and SO cute for spring! We are size S.

This pink tie dye hoodie with matching shorts is still in stock, and comes in other colors, too!

If you’re more of a pants and sweatshirt kind of girl, this blue tie dye set is super cute and affordable and this ombre sweatshirt and joggers are also so fun.

This cropped tie dye shirt is fun to wear with denim shorts or joggers, and this short sleeve oversized “good vibes” graphic tee is also really fun!

5 Self Care Acts You Can Do During Quarantine

April 10, 2020

lifestyle and fashion blogger, alexis belbel wearing a tie dye sweatshirt, pink leggings, cozy slippers shares 5 Self Care Acts You Can Do During Quarantine, including awake beauty lip masks, face masks, facial exfoliators/scrubs, a back massage, and candles. | adoubledose.com

Hope you all are staying well mentally and physically during this quarantine time. We have actually been embracing it and enjoying this time with our family. It is nice to not “have” to be somewhere, and just take it slowly. We thought we would share 5 self-care things you can add to your week to take care of yourself, and also relax a little bit.

Do a mask for your face and lips

We try to do face masks, but we don’t remember to do our lips. Do you all?! We have been loving these lip treatments from Awake Beauty. They have a daytime and nighttime mask that are super moisturizing and leave your lips hydrated and plumped! The one for daytime hydrates for 12 hours and is cruelty free, and free of parabens, mineral oils, gluten, phthalates, triclosan, and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.

I love that it has a watermelon tint and scent to it! It also has a blend of olive, argan, rosehip, and raspberry seed oil that help to lock in that moisture!

The nighttime Lip Therapy Mask works while your sleep and is also cruelty free and free all of the yucky stuff! You can also use it during the day, but this one is not tinted and not as thick.

If you’re wanting to do a mask, this Sleep Retreat Overnight Oil Gel hydrates your skin while you sleep and smells like cucumber!

Give your face a little scrub and massage

Your face and skin could always use some exfoliation and scrubbing. This scrub you can use all over your body and is sugar-based with ten moisturizing oils and exfoliates off dead skin in the shower.

Massage your back and neck

We get super tight backs and necks, so this neck massager is a game changer! You loop it around your hands and arms and it really gets into your tight muscles.

Light some candles

Some nice candles always make us feel more relaxed. This all natural candle has notes of white tea, fresh fig, and lavender.

Take a relaxing bath

Last, but not least, a nice, relaxing bath is what you need to feel rejuvenated and relaxed. These all natural bath bombs are on prime, and come in a pack of six.

Wellness Wednesday .25: The Best Running Shoes

Since we are all at home, and trying to find ways to stay sane, and active, we thought we’d share some of our favorite running shoes. We shared our must have running essentials and running gear for the rain here.

We have a few running shoes we wear regularly, and some that are favorites by other runners, we thought we’d share! Alexis wears these Brooks Glycerin for running, and loves them, and Sam has the New Balance Fresh Foam pair (both in size 7.5).

We also have the Adidas Ultraboosts, and wear them for running, too! We like them for running shorter distances, but we know a lot of people run marathons in them! We have size 7.5 in ours just because if you’re running in them, your feet will swell.

These cloudswift running shoes are one of our best friend’s favorite running shoes, and she does a lot of races.

There are some other Brooks sneakers like the Levitate, Revel, and Adrenaline that are all great for running.

We also suggest getting insoles, if you feel like you need some.

6 Things We Are Doing During Quarantine

April 5, 2020

We know everyone is at home right now, and to be honest, some days are better than others. Just know this too shall pass, and we will all come out stronger and closer. We thought we would share some cute and affordable loungewear you can wear at home to work, or to lounge, all while looking stylish!

We love this camo set from Express, and it also happens to come in snakeskin, too! We got size xxs for reference in the comfy pullover, and the super soft joggers.Express has so many cute options to wear around the house, or to pick up takeout or groceries! We love this jumpsuit (we have in size xxs), and this cozy ribbed cardigan (we have size xxs). A lot of their pieces are currently up to 50% off.

If you’re looking for some things to do at home, besides, lounging or napping, here’s what we have been up to/have on our list to-do:

Organizing Our Closets And Spaces

We have been needing to do this for months, and now, we are finally taking time to organize, donate clothes, sell clothes, and it feels SO good. Even if you just do one room, it feels amazing!

Staying Active

We have been trying to stay as active as we can, even if we are at home. We try to go on a 20-30 minute walk every day, if the weather is nice. We also jump on our rebounders, and do some at-home weighted exercises.

Call Friends And Family

Since we are always too busy to call (or see) people, we have been Facetiming our friends and family, and talking on the phone. It really helps to stay upbeat and positive, and really helps more than you’d think!

Working On Projects We Have Been Putting Off

Whether it is recording a workout video to share with you all, working on our ebook, or other projects we have been putting off, we have really been using this time to cross those things off of our lists. We can’t wait to share everything with you all!

Being Grateful

It can be easy to feel frustrated about this situation, but we really are so grateful for our jobs, our families, and our health, and it really helps to shift your mindset when you’re feeling negative.

Cooking Every Meal

We do cook a lot, but especially with this situation, we have been cooking EVERY meal, with the exception of a few dinners that we had pizza, and it has been so nice (and fun to experiment in the kitchen!)

Last, but not least, this pack of tanks comes in great colors. We are smallest size.

Hope you all are hanging in there! Since we are all at home, and some of us are working from home, or trying to stay productive, we thought we’d share some of our essentials. We found most of these great work from home items on Amazon, so you can get them very quickly!

Stay On Schedule

Working from home can be challenging when it comes to staying on a schedule! We recommend using a planner to stay organized, and also a time cube if you need to manage your tasks more efficiently!

Stay Cozy + Comfortable

We are all about cozy loungewear! We love pairing a cozy top like this super soft grey v-neck top, and this pale pink sweatshirt. We like to wear them with some comfy joggers. This pink pair is super soft and can be worn to bed. This tan pair comes in lots of colors, and this black pair comes in 2 other colors.

Of course, you’ll need some cozy slippers. We just got this pair and LOVE them!

Work Efficiently

To work more efficiently, we need to stay hydrated, so we love this heated mug because it keeps your tea or coffee warm for hours.

This laptop desk is perfect for sitting on the couch or anywhere at home comfortably!

Taking calls or listening to music is much more convenient with these noise canceling headphones. These are the best.

We love having all of our devices charged together, so this charging dock is great to leave by your bed or work station.

To feel calmer and relaxed, we love bringing in plants and a diffuser to help us clear our heads.
