Outfit Of The Day: 17th May

Monday, 26 May 2014

Hey Guys!!
 
This day was such a hot one and we were off to town and were going to be out in it quite a lot, so definitely wanted to wear something cool.
 
I had this skater skirt at Christmas and it is so floaty and cool, I love it :) I just wore a simple white strapped top that I already had and again wore my black espadrilles :)
 
I left my hair curly as I had washed and plaited it the night before :)
 

Hope you enjoyed this post :)
 
See You Soon!!


Outfit Of The Day: 19th May

Saturday, 24 May 2014

Hey Guys!!
 
I thought I would share with you another outfit post :)
 
This day Mum decided to have a BBQ with some family and it was a bit cooler which was nice as we have had some really hot weather recently.
 
I didn't want to wear shorts or anything so decided to wear my floral jumpsuit. What's nice about this jumpsuit it is a nice thin cotton material so is cool and comfortable :) I paired with it my old faithful black espadrilles and a nice denim jacket :)
 

Hope you enjoyed this post!!
 
See You Soon!!


Outfit Of The Day: 18th May x

Thursday, 22 May 2014

Hey Guys!!
 
On Sunday Me, Llewellyn and Mum, Dad, Lauren and Chloe went out for food at our favourite restaurant the Man of Gwent :)
 
It was such a hot day I didn't want to wear something that I would be boiling in and for some reason I can't find my maxi dresses :( I decided to dig into my H&M clothes which were not meant to be worn yet but it was the only day dress I have :)
 
 
I paired this dress with my black espadrilles and I was so cool and comfortable all day :)
 
I know this is a short post but I hope you enjoyed it :)
 
See You Soon!!


My Fitness Week 2

Tuesday, 20 May 2014


Hey Guys!!
 
We are now on to Week 2 of my Fitness series, even though this post is actually a day late, that's because I was at Mums' for a BBQ :) Talking about BBQs, this week has not been a very good week at all, food and exercise wise. It seems as though I started this series and all I have done is eat and slack on the exercise front.
 
I did do a little bit of a workout on the treadmill at Mums, but then she decided to move the living room around and it was also Chloes' Birthday Friday so I missed out on that day also, so I done 3 days on there last week. I'm still doing Program 2 as I still get a little breathless when doing it and I can feel its working me out :)
 
I am on Day 4 of my Runtastic app and I must admit it is a decent workout app. I didn't think I would feel the effects, as in feeling a bit sore and aching a bit so I know its working :) I got another 6 days of Level 1 so we shall see what measurements will be like next week :)
 
 
Onto my measurements :)
 
I actually realised I measured my waist wrong so it is actually 28ins so have to disregard last weeks measurement of 33ins. I actually gained half an inch on my stomach, which I expected because we have had 2 BBQs at the weekend and also went out for food on Sunday, but half an inch is not bad at all. My thighs have actually stayed the same so I'm happy with that :) What I am rather happy about is even though we done all that unhealthy eating over the weekend, I have managed to lose a pound :D
 
I will say I have done nothing different eating wise I have stuck to 3 meals a day, not been snacking much and have been drinking a lot more water, and I am feeling a lot better for it all to :)
 
How are you all doing with getting fit and healthy?
 
See You Soon!!



Updated Skincare Routine

Monday, 19 May 2014


 
I done a post like this a while ago which you can read HERE.
 
My previous skincare routine had a lot of products in and would literally take me about half hour to do, so I thought I would cut down and try a new skincare routine.
 
This is where I was looking through my Avon catalogue and come across this skincare range. I actually remember using Clearskin Professional when I was in my teens and it worked so well for me and its only 3 products. What's good about these products is they are numbered so you know what order to use them in :)
 
 
The first product I use is the Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub which is £5.50. I apply this with an exfoliating glove so I am exfoliating at the same time and then wash it off with warm water. What's good is this range has Salicylic Acid which is so good for breakouts :)
 
 
The second product I use then is the Clarifying Toner Pads which are also £5.50. I wipe these all over my face and down my neck, it is surprising how oily and dirty your face and neck gets, I always thought I was a really clean person!! These smell lovely, well they smell like a medical place, but I love the smell of them :)
 
 
The third product then is the Daily Correcting Lotion which is £7. This basically 'repairs' or 'corrects' any blemishes you may have and also because it has Salicylic Acid in it treats any spots you may have and any redness :)
 
I do this every morning and night, as soon as I get up and before I go to bed. In the picture below is my skin before, I will do a full review on each item after a month of using it and also include an After picture to see if there is a difference :)
 
 
Hope You Enjoyed This Post!!
 
See You Soon!!
 
 


 

Haircare Routine

Wednesday, 14 May 2014


Hey Guys!!
 
I thought I would share with you how I take care of my hair on a general basis. I don't use a lot of products on my hair and I also have to use specific products as not a lot of things clean my hair properly.
 
 
 
Over the years I have always been on and off with different shampoos and conditioners and found that some would partially clean my hair and others wouldn't clean it at all!! I then found that using Herbal Essences on my hair cleaned it really well and left it so soft and shiny. As you can see I have to actually get some more as I'm running out. I don't use them every day, I would say every other day I use them or whenever my hair needs washing. I usually stock up on these when they're on offer in Tesco's :)
 
 
This product I had never used before and my Aunty had bought me it for Christmas. It smells gorgeous and just makes me want to eat fruit. Its like a conditioner consistency and is a shine mask. I don't use this all the time but once a week I will replace my conditioner with this. It leaves my hair so shiny and my hair always feels so light after using it :)
 
I hope you enjoyed this post!!
 
See You Soon!!



My Fitness Week 1

Monday, 12 May 2014

 
Hey Guys!!
 
I'm actually a little nervous to do this post as I find it very hard to motivate myself to get fit. I have been seeing a lot of fitness posts around and reading a lot of them!! So I am taking the plunge and doing my own Fitness series :)
 
In roughly 3 months I am off on holiday to Corfu and I can not wait to go!! But I am not in the best of shape and would like to tone up a bit ready for it :) It doesn't help that chocolates, cakes and anything sweet is so tempting, so I am trying my hardest to make healthier decisions :)
 
I am not going by my weight as I don't want to lose weight as I am a healthy weight for my height according to the Dr :) So I have measured my waist, stomach and thighs as I feel I will see more progress that way :) I have taken a picture of my measurements and then we can all see the progress I am hopefully going to make :) So these are the measurements at the moment.
 
Waist 33ins; Stomach 32ins; Thighs 20ins; Weight 8st 5lb
 
As I said above I am not worried about my weight but more my measurements.
 
Onto how I am going to get into shape!! I haven't pictured it but my Mum has a treadmill so whenever I am at my Mums', which tends to be 5 times a week, I am going to do half an hour on there. I have been going on there for a while and been doing the pre-programmed sessions on there. I started out on Programme 1 and am now on Programme 2 so will be doing that until I feel its not really doing anything.
 
I have also downloaded an App onto my phone called Runtastic Six Pack and it is aimed to get you a Six Pack in 6 weeks.
 
 

I am going to be starting this today and you start on Level 1, then each week go up a level. I have the free version but you can upgrade it for a price, I'm not sure how much as it doesn't say. I'm hoping I'm going to see some progress on my stomach area and you never know I might end up with a Six Pack ha ha
 
Eating wise I am pretty good, I stick to 3 meals a day, sometimes I do forget to have breakfast but I am going to make sure I have breakfast every morning from now on. I just need to make sure I eat more fruit as I don't eat a lot of fruit, instead of eating sugary sweets all the time :)
 
I hope you enjoyed this post and will tune in every week to see my progress :)
 
I will also post up healthy meals I am eating and possibly some recipes, if you would like to see that?
 
See You Soon!!
