5 experts. 10 looks. How not to feel like sh*t when it's hot as f*ck

I am determined not to spiral when the heat is on.

Sorry, Mom. I know you wish Gretchen Whitmer swore less on Colbert, and you probably would prefer the same for me. But I don’t know how else to describe this feeling.

It’s hot as F and I’ve been feeling like S. I live in Miami so you’d think I would have no problem dealing with what constitutes heat in New England. But I feel more at home there. With my routines. Not to mention their AC expertise, blasting dry coolness to unfathomably icy levels.

Versus here, lately, not only do I feel hot, but I spiral. I spiral to also feeling like I’m stuffed, chubby, itchy, overflowing, like I have no style, and ultimately I can go to a dark place where I feel ... disgusting, honestly. I am not proud of this. I like to be a person with a good sense of self. But I go there. And I feel it creeping in on me.

Instead of spiraling, I wanted to take control. I think about Anna at

and her formulas. That’s what I needed. Not ideas, not muses, but GUARANTEES. I wanted tried and true formulas as simple and reliable as x + y = z.

So I called in some experts for help.
