6 things to do at home to face the quarantine - Week 9 From old-school TV series for the most nostalgic, to the most colorful nail polishes to try

The forced stop and the pandemic affected the last 2 months for all of us. At this point, a slow and gradual restart is beginning and we all hope to be able to return to life before the Coronavirus as soon as possible.

Those who study, those who work, regardless of profession and age, had to readjust their personal habits. The companies and the biggest brands, from the fashion to the beauty industry, are also getting prepared to start a strategic and controlled recovery.

In the meantime, we keep spending most of our days inside. And it is for this reason that nss G-Club wants to keep you company and offer small tips and ideas on how to spend the next days at home. Enjoy!

 

1. 5 POPSICLES TO TRY AT HOME

The spring days alternate between the warming sun and the moments of rain and wind typical of the season, making us a bit confused. But we know, the arrival of the warmer season involves, especially for those who live in the city, the search for ways to cool off and survive the sultry climate. What better solution than fresh home-made fruit popsicles? Here are some simple ideas, to try immediately: watermelon popsicles, for those who cannot do without this fruit in summer; fruit and prosecco popsicles, for those who want to enjoy a drink with their relatives; mango and coconut popsicles, if you want to pretend to be on holiday on a tropical island for a few hours; mint and lemon popsicles, for those who love freshness and the taste of Mojito; and finally the cream and strawberry popsicles, for those who love this classic and tasty mix.

 

2. 5 COOL VASES FOR HOUSEPLANTS

For those who decided to revolutionize their home a bit in this period, there is no better decoration than a cozy and delightful houseplant. Why? Among the various benefits, plants purify the air and the environment, give a fresh and exotic touch to the rooms, improve sleep and mental well-being. Each plant also needs its own pot or vase, and you can find super cool ones out there, word of nss G-Club! Have a look at our favorites here.

3. 5 SPORTS BRAS FOR TRAINING AT HOME

We talked about home workouts, given that thanks to the apps for yoga, training and meditation, even your home can now be transformed into a gym. While not able to show them off, the training outfits immediately made us feel more fit and give us the right energy to train. One of the most loved garments is certainly the sports bra. Why? In addition to providing support during training, it is beautiful worn as a summer top or under a sweatshirt or blazer (also perfect for the less sporty girls!)

4. 5 OLD-SCHOOL TV SERIES TO WATCH AGAIN

During this period, major distribution platforms such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video made cult films and TV series available: yes, the ones we never forgot and couldn't wait to watch again. Among the TV series for the nostalgic, nss G-Club compiled a list of tips for a healthy dose of bing-watching in our free time: Dawson's Creek, for those who love romance and teenage dramas; Willy the Prince of Bel-Air, if you love Will Smith and 90s style; Gossip Girl, for all the fashion victims dreaming of Manhattan; Friends, for those who love the great classics; The OC, for those who still dream of living in a villa in California.
