It’s that time of year again. Time to make those resolutions! Personally, I’ve never been a fan of all of that. I’m more of an “improve yourself all year long” kind of girl… With the body positive/acceptance movement in full force I think we forget just how important taking care of our bodies actually is. Does that mean you need to be skinny? Of course not, but it does mean that you should take pride in your body and health no matter what size you are. Below are some great workout tips from one of my favorite personal trainers and my actual personal trainer, Eric Bartee, as well as a low carb recipe that is sure to be a hit at the dinner table! I have recently gone low carb and I thought this was going to be difficult, but I’ve come to find that I should have done it years ago! My latest obsession is Danielle Walker. For Christmas I bought myself her book, Danielle Walker’s Against All Grain: Meals Made Simple. I wouldn’t say it’s as easy as “normal” cooking but it sure tastes just as good! This Paleo Chicken Tikka Masala is a staple in my recipe […]
Gone are the days of dressing up in your finest to go to the airport. Looking around you’ll see people in their trainers, sweats and practically wearing pajamas. I have never been that person. I blame my mother. She always dressed us up when we went places so, naturally, I’m still doing that. On the long hauls I do so often now I’m starting to think that the people wearing sweats have the right idea. Who cares if they just look like they just rolled out of bed! They are comfy!
One Look, Two Ways I love wearing clothes that are versatile. There is nothing better than getting the most out of your hard earned money when it comes the the clothes you buy. Fashion is about pushing boundaries and who says you can’t throw on a pair of trainers with a dress and rock it. Take a look at how I styled a traditional little black slip dress (another huge trend this A/W16) by giving it a trendy daytime look and then a classy evening look.
One of the hottest trends this Autumn, which happens to be my personal favorite, is the Bomber Trend. This is the kind of jacket that can edge up a dressy look or it can even take the typical jeans and t-shirt to a new level. Bombers right now are coming in so many different styles that you can literally wear with anything. Everything from Longline, to satin, Bombers with Embroiders and Bombers with Lace. It is the go-to item this A/W16.
Coming Soon! We’ve been doing some vinyl shopping, picking out some of our all time favourite records to giveaway! For your chance to win Jess’ favourite album, or the song that inspired Louis to pick up a guitar… Keep your eyes peeled!
My birthday was around the corner and it was a big one. Let’s just put it this way…I’m nowhere near being 21 anymore. This year I decided it was time for some changes, one of the biggest ones was traveling. Yes, I travel all the time, but it’s for work. It has been about 15 years since I went on an actual holiday that didn’t involve working. After several failed attempts at trying to get friends together to go away with me, I decided to take matters into my own hands.
