    You are the absolute best! So kind of you to promote local designers during these trying times--I know they will appreciate that. Thank you for all the tips to help us cope; I wish you and your friends and family the best of health and happiness. :)

    I like to go for a drive and swing by people I know houses. I sit out front and text them to come to their window and wave!

    absolutely spot on...the longer term implications for the economy is pretty scary. Stay home, stay safe x

    Good tips! In my line of work it’s all over the place right now. I see all the people talking about being bored at home and wonder HOW? With schools closed, kids home learning online and remote work it just seems impossible to me.
    Also, artists will be affected by this tremendously. If you have tickets for shows that are being cancelled or postponed please do not return them, especially with smaller local artists!
    Edit: when you mentioned a Polish fitness channel I was afraid that you’re gonna say Chodakowska 🙈

    Hey Evelyn, mega gute Idee! 🌟Ich finde, das kann man auf alle regionalen Geschäfte beziehen. Also auch den Buchhandel etc.!
    Das mit dem Selbstbräuner werd ich dem nächst auch mal testen, da ich weiß wie die Wand bin. Sollte es schief gehen ist es auch nicht schlimm, mich sieht ja eh niemand 😄
    Freu mich jetzt noch mehr auf Videos von dir in der nächsten Zeit❤️

    • @thegeekischic
      @thegeekischic  4 года назад +1

      Herzlichen Dank für den lieben Kommentar! Ich verwende einen Selbstbräuner in Serum-Form, den kann man zu seiner Bodylotion dazu mixen. So ist die Bräune natürlicher und das Streifenrisiko ist geringer 😬💓

    I so agree with everything you said in your video, Evelyn! It is a shame that some people are to this day, not taking this pandemic seriously. In my region I know that pretty much people have behaving accordingly to the government decrees, however the situation is different in other regions. It is essential during these hard times to stay positive and do the right thing, which is staying at home as much as possible and stay safe. I think we should take the chance to do the things we would normally would not want to do on a week-end like decluttering, cleaning, organizing etc. I agree with you that right now, is more important than ever to keep yourself groomed, and keep your living space nice and clean! I have been doing a lot of facial masks, too, and by the way, I have been using a dermaroller for a while now and I love it! I got microneedling done at the doctor's office as well, I think it is great for your skin, especially when using the right serum or treatment after each use. Take care of yourself and lot of love back at ya ❤️

    Here in California situation is tense 😔. But I’ve seen a lot of people trying to stay positive. Wishing my best to everyone and to you Evelyn specially to take the time to make this video and staying with us strong. We’re together in this. 🌎🌏🌍✨

      junebug I’m in near Napa area. I heard that in LA the shelter in place will be extended until May 15th! Hopefully just rumors. You be safe too. Thankfully I’m at home with my two dogs and my husband who’s still working but staying safe. Greetings 🌁

    Hello Evelyn! I just remembered you, and wished to say I hope you’re ok. There aren’t many ppl as honest and mindful as you are on yt. I miss your videos and thoughts on fashion and new covid era in life in general. Hugs from Slovenia

    Thank you, Evelyn!! Such great advice! I agree with all of it wholeheartedly and find that this is the way to keep strong, especially emotionally. For me, I can add a few things. First, I am a person of faith and there are many like minded on RUclips, so right after I wake up, it's 1- 2 hours of positivity and for me prayer, and THEN a brief virus update, followed my "workday", and then only one more update on the virus. Each day a long bike ride and connecting with my extended family via text or FaceTime. My thoughts go out to all who all struggling!! Keep strong!

    That is just a great initiative. I hope other influencers do something like that as well.

    Thanks for sharing. My husband and I each set up a home office when we got our house. It makes working from home more "normal". Stay safe.

    I really loved this video! You have inspired me and motivated to separate my working hours from private life hours. Here in Poland the situation is similar. Much love to you and I wish you a great week and weekend ahead. ❤️

    Lovely video. I love all of your style & sustainability based videos, but I'm so happy you put this out. It's so important, I'm so shocked at how many people in the UK are still behaving. I hope this crisis does cause a shift in how we approach consumerism and support small businesses rather than the Mega-conglomerates. I've struggled with making myself get dressed and do my makeup etc for the last year & a half while I'm job-hunting, but I ALWAYS feel better when I do. I'm really looking forward to seeing your next few videos. Thank you for sharing ❤️😘

    Thank you so much for inspiring us beyond fashion and giving us a reminder to support our small businesses and entrepreneurs.i know a lot of people in the US who have been impacted by lay-offs as a result. As we’re all facing variations of social distancing, quarantine, shelter requirements, and curfews, one way that many of us here have found comfort is to have a group FaceTime or zoom conference with our family and friends. We even have online happy hours to add levity when we need it. This is a great time to catch up with friends, family and reconnect with those you may have lost touch with over time. It’s never too late to show someone you care. A phone call, email, text or a letter would be heartwarming to receive during these difficult times and could cheer someone up. It’s a good reminder that we are human and in this together. Let’s remember to be kind and support one another the best we can. Be well and safe! 💕

    Would be really interested to hear your insights on the situation for fashion houses in terms of stock and pricing. Sophie Shohet's video the other day pointed out that online stock for LV and others is dwindling, for example. Also about the ordering and production timelines being off for even the current seasons.

    It’s so sad that people have not taken this COVID-19 seriously as you said. It’s very selfish.
    Great reminders and points to remember while we’re in. I like when said when you don’t keep your home tidy it leads to chaos in your home and then chaos in your mind. So true!

    • @jq77
      @jq77 4 года назад +1

      Thanks for the very grounded video. I find it maddening that too many people (even some countries' presidents!) are not taking this covid situation serious enough at all. Hopefully we can get out of this situation sooner rather than later. Please stay safe.

    Thanks for this video, this virus is a pandemic that no one has been prepared for and that includes our governing structure and healthcare system. Self care is a challenge when you are working remotely and have so many other obligation, but its a vital one in our current condition.
    I work in the public sector in my home country, Canada, we are advocating for the government (an entity that is not build to move fast on anything that support everyday ppl, unlike how quickly they respond to bail out corporation) to think outside of the box and consider innovative way to financially support working individuals and families. Our current system is not equipped to provide the necessary financial incentives to wide sectors of working people, including those with precarious employment status and those who left the labor market for whatever reason. On my end, I am more concerned on what innovative factors have the federal and provincial government utilized, to access a wider members of the public to get these incentive to their hands.

    I have to disagree. I also live in Germany, and my husband is a Oberarzt . People do grasp the situation. But they rely a lot on the state and on their health insurances.

    • @thegeekischic

      I don’t know what the one thing has to do with the other. I still see groups of people casually enjoying the sun, meeting their whole families and not giving a damn. That is a shame.
