Morning Promise

Make a date with yourself for early morning. Slip into something nice from JV and go about your daily beauty routine. See how it elevates your mood, your awareness, even your goals. We asked Friends of JV to describe how they glamorize their morning prep.

From a tiny apartment: I like to imagine that I’m waking up in a hotel suite. Just in case room service drops by with breakfast, my morning attire is one of Emma Harris’s jewel-toned silk slips. These vibrant pieces light up my face and make me feel serene as I apply make-up, etc. They create a special moment.”


Poolside, Arizona: “My habit is to put on lipstick before I leave the bedroom–it makes a difference in my outlook. Then something cool and comfortable for this desert climate. Emma Ducci’s new Santorini Silk Kaftan is perfect. As are dresses from Zoelle: the Malachite Butterfly Reversible Hi-Low Dress or the Malachite Butterfly Empire Dress with shirred elasticized waist.”


From an early-riser: “After my stretching routine and shower, I need a little quiet time. I wrap myself in an ethereal long robe and sit at my vanity table. It is hypnotic. I think about my day, the people I love. Today I wore my happy new Kobe Aka Robe from Karma on the Rocks in a juicy orange cotton print.” 


Dashing by, with coffee and eyebrow pencil: “As I zigzag from kitchen to bath, I like something silky floating behind me. My choice is Emma Harris’s Rochelle Orchid Robe–over a bra and panties. The pale purple looks well with its matching Rochelle Orchid Lingerie Set, but also with a sexy black JV bra set.”


From Emily:I tend to spend my mornings in a beautiful robe. They are endlessly comfortable, modest enough that I can run outside to grab the dog, and easy to slip off once I’ve chosen my wardrobe for the day. In the bleak days of winter I often wear Gilda & Pearl’s stunning Garland robe; shoulder seasons I tend to reach for Christine Vancouver’s Erte; and since it’s been blisteringly hot I’ve been mostly wearing a silk crepe kimono from back when we had the brick and mortar store.”


From Jane: “I have a rather large cache of Jane’s Vanity options & I wear them all to function in a multitude of ways.  This summer season so many sheer short & long wraps glide out the door with me to complete my daywear.  I love the prints to get my morning swinging along.  Pajamas in the summer are easy: I can step out the door in them & walk the dogs in the neighborhood.”


More pajamas: “Only on Sunday morning do I have the luxury of time. Then it’s a new jigsaw puzzle and silk pajamas! I love the delicious cool feel of the Tokyo Crane Silk Pajama from Karma on the Rocks. Its lightweight pale blue crepe de chine features a puzzle-like yellow crane pattern with contrasting yellow floral trim.”


So that’s the story, Morning Glory. It’s never too early for Jane’s Vanity!
