As women, we tend to get overwhelmed with the daily tasks that life brings that we forget to take good care of ourselves. Whether it's children or a career that's keeping you busy, we need to remember to take a few extra minutes out of the day to look great for our husbands.
Remember Lucille Ball and how she always looked fabulous? Women of the 1950's had it right! They knew how to make their men smile when they walked through the door boasted "Honey, I am home!" Also, there are references in the Bible in which God teaches us, as wives, to be emotionally, spiritually, AND physically pleasing to our husbands-and that does include taking care of ourselves to delight the man in our lives.
Ephesians 5:22: "Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord"
I'm not saying you have to go out and buy expensive jewelry or clothing or go get hair or eyelash extensions, but take some delight in how you look. If you never or hardly wear makeup, put a little blush and lipstick on. If you've had the same look for a while, go to the salon and get a makeover. Buy a new outfit! Start working out-take care of your body and cherish it. Surprise him! Wow him!
I dont expect you to look, act, or dress like a supermodel, but a little effort goes a long way. And no matter what, YOU are a supermodel in your husband's eyes-so why not play the part?
Miranda Kerr, Victoria's Secret Angel, shares her grandmother's secret to keeping a man happy:
"My grandma said, 'Men are very visual, so don't forget that,'" Miranda shared. "She said, 'Every day, put a little makeup on, put on some nice underwear, and you'll keep your husband.'"
Just because you are married does not mean you need to let yourself go-just as I tell my pregnant clients that just because they are pregnant doesn't mean they can let themselves go either.

There is no excuse.
The man you married deserves the best version of you-beauty inside and out! Remind him why he married you and show him how much confidence you have. In the end, he will be happy, but you will be even happier too!
XOXO.
