We’ve all heard about the perfectly curated routines that fill social media, right? The kind that make you question if you, too, could pull off a
#hotgirlwalk
or a #girldinner while maintaining the balance of zen and hustle?
Well, I’ve decided to try my hand at what it would look like if I were a Zoomer living my best life. Here’s how my day would unfold in an alternate universe where I’m a Gen Z icon.
AM Routine: Wake Up and Glow
First thing’s first: I’m not reaching for my phone. Nope. Not today. I am calm, centered, and at peace with the universe. Instead, I grab either a matcha oat milk latte or adaptogen coffee (because of course, both are loaded with mysterious benefits I read about on Instagram).
Next up, it’s time to create some content. Nothing too extravagant—just me applying my clean girl minimalist skincare(all from refillable bottles, naturally). There’s a camera, there’s some lighting, and suddenly, I’m a skincare influencer.
Then, I squeeze in a quick workout. Maybe a few yoga poses, a couple of stretches, and a solid minute of “active breathing” (I saw it on TikTok, so it counts). After that, it’s time to meditate. I can’t really meditate, but it sounds good in theory.
Then, outfit time. Today’s look: one part Miu Miu, one part thrifted. It’s about that balance, you know? I finish up with my PHULR perfume—which, if you’re wondering, doesn’t smell like anything but somehow still makes me feel “fresh” and “unbothered.”
Phone in hand with my Rhode phone case (yes, the Hailey Bieber one), and I’m out the door. But first, let me get that selfie.
Midday Hustle: Keep It Moving
Now that I’ve conquered the morning, it’s time to take my hustle game to the streets. I make sure to take my #hotgirlwalk, which is basically just me walking around my block with a good playlist and a slight bounce in my step. It’s all about the vibes.
For lunch, I grab something ultra-sustainable, like a faux chicken gluten-free sandwich or a plant-based snack bar from Happier Grocer. #NotSponsored, but we should be.
Then, I check my fitness tracker because that’s what cool people do. Did I hit my step goal? Who cares? But, I’ll still take a look. I also grab my work-from-anywhere tools (aka my laptop, notebook, and probably some oat milk) before heading back to my favorite coffee shop. It’s all about productivity and aesthetics.
Evening Vibes: Book Club & Magnesium
Ah, the evening. A time to wind down with a curated playlist and some smart lighting (because who wants to be in the dark when you’re living your best life?). I’m in my sleepy girl era, so I’ll sip on my magnesium before diving into my 20-step bedtime routine. Because, as everyone knows, you have to go to bed ugly to wake up pretty.
Tonight’s agenda? A #girldinner of a mocktail and snacks. It’s a book club meeting, but not in the traditional sense. I’m just going to read my Kindle, but don’t worry, I’ll pretend I’m reading something super intellectual.
Weekend Getaway: Glamping, But Make It Sustainable
This weekend, I’m heading out for a glamping trip with my OOMF (One of My Friends, duh). We’re going to an eco-resort because, as a Zoomer, sustainability is everything. Our outfits? Thrifted, of course. And toiletries? Only solid bars because plastic is a no-no. I’ll be sure to keep you updated on TikTok, so don’t forget to hit follow.
Final Thoughts: Living My Best Zoomer Life
Okay, let’s be real: is this routine a little over the top? Maybe. But it’s fun to imagine what my life would be like if I had the energy to maintain such an aesthetic. But here’s the thing—it’s all about finding your own version of balance between hustle, chill, and a little bit of ‘grammable moments.
So, what’s your routine like? Are you living that minimalist lifestyle or are you more into maximalist chaos? Either way, keep doing you (and maybe take a #hotgirlwalk while you’re at it).
