One thing we’ve learned from our Stylemakers series? The morning routines of highly successful women tend to go way beyond coffee and concealer. That said, every inspiring person we’ve featured in the column has a unique AM routine. We’ve gotten lots of ideas over the years for new morning rituals to try, and these are some of our very favorites.
From sardines for breakfast to reading comics in the nude, these are the unexpected ways our stylemakers shake up their morning routines.
