10 rules every Bella babe should live by!

There’s no denying it… we ALL want to live our best life, but sometimes we need to take a step back, get out of our own heads and remind ourselves of our rules. If you’re keen to get the most out of each and every day, we’ve put together a handy list of 10 rules every Bella babe should live by in order to live, laugh and love each and every day.
- Wear what you want…
… when you want! While the #BellaBabe loves a new season trend, she isn’t a slave to them. She wears what she wants, when she wants. Crop tips in winter…check. Hooded jumper in summer…check. Think white won’t work in winter?! Our new Brand Ambassador @rebeccahorourke proves it works, whatever the weather. Remember to dress for yourself and no one else.
- Make time for your girl squad
Let’s face it… life can be busy. With hectic work schedules, family lives and commitments, sometimes it can feel like mission impossible to get your #girlsquad in the same place at the same time. If you can, make plans to meet up once a month. Need help aligning your schedules? Check out When Is Good. Everyone inputs when they’re free so that you can see what date suits everyone.
- Be comfortable in your own skin
From time-to-time, it’s worth reminding yourself that absolutely no one is perfect. Every girl (and guy), no matter how flawless they seem to you, has their own hang ups. So work what you’ve got and love it.
- See the positive in every situation
This one’s probably easier said than done, but how many times have you gone through a tricky spot and come out the other side stronger than ever? When you’re in a rut, remember that this isn’t permanent. This too shall pass.
- Live in the moment
Life is short – say yes to those last minute party invites. Take trips with friends. Explore the world with your other half. And when those unexpected invites crop up, you don’t have to worry about your tan letting you down thanks to our Skin Perfecting Instant Tan.
- Be passionate about something
Whether it’s pulling together killer outfits, standing up for your beliefs, curling up in cosy corners and reading or creating culinary masterpieces in the kitchen, every Bella babe should be passionate about something in life.
- Ask for help
Undoubtedly, at one time or another in our lives, we’ll need support from others, so ALWAYS ask for it. Our nearest and dearest will never be too busy for us.
- Make time for yourself
While it’s always good to have your #girlsquad around you, everyone needs a little time for just themselves. From going for brunch solo, to booking a spa day or even taking a trip, make sure you carve out time for yourself in today’s ever-busy world.
- Don’t compare yourself to others
It’s okay to be 22 or 42 and not really know what you want to be. Everyone’s milestones in life are different and we all figure things out at different stages. If you’re not married with kids at 33 and all your friends are, that’s okay. This is your journey, not anyone else’s.
- Glow girl!
Whatever life throws your way, we say tackle it with a smile and a gorgeous golden glow. We always feel better with a tan – our confidence grows and we feel ready to take on the world.
