Work Out Plan

Along side my healthy recipes that I will be posting every Wednesday, each Wednesday I will also be posting what exercise I have been doing helping my body stay as fit as possible and lets face it get in shape for summer.

I want to have a strong healthy body not skinny, I will show you the exercise I have been doing to make my body strong, healthy and toned.

I will be doing yoga, Pilate's, weight exercises and many more, it will be everything I can do at home no gym member ship necessary.

I'm looking forward to giving you guys an insight in what I am doing and I hope you can come along on the journey with me, if there's a work out that you find fun and is free to do comment below I would love to know.


Health Kick

Through the years I haven't had the healthiest of life styles, though I'm active I walk for about 2 hours 5 days a week and do a little weights as well but when it comes to putting nutritional food in my body I haven't been that great at it.

For your body to work to its best you need to fuel it with national foods, the human body is an amazing thing and it needs to be treated with respect something I haven't been doing totally the last few years especially.

I have been a vegetarian for the last 7-8 years I have got into a routine of eating the same things over and over again, I want to widen my recipe horizon and fill my body with yummy, healthy, colourful and nutritional food that will make me able to do the thing I want like be active, travel the world so much more.

On every Saturday I will be posting a recipe that I have tried and loved if you can recommend me and healthy vegetarian meals please do and I will try them out.

Collection Nail Polishes

 
 As a stocking filler I had these three collection nail polishes, they applied really well the brush is the perfect size to get an even coat especially as I have small nails it didn't make the polish go all on my skin.
 The colours I received are
vixen red which is a gel formula, I wore this for a week and it didn't cheap and that was without a topcoat so very impressed by it, I will be buying a few more of the gel collection range.



This is titanium metal it is a metallic grey, I normally wouldn't go for this but I actually really like it.

This is deep blue sea its a rich blue almost navy, it lasts well without chipping and really pigmented.

Matalan Skirt



I recently went into Matalan its a bit of a hit and miss with the store lately,  they are a bit like Primark but just a tinny little more expensive but it think better quality.
In the last year they have had a makeover they aren't doing as many things as I like so I never know if I'm going to find anything.
 I went in just after Christmas after the sales died down as they are usually just full of sizes that don't fit me, I found this skirt well in fact me and my mum both did and we both loved it so both got it.
It is an A line cut black and white print, it is really flattering on any shape I'm bigger on the bottom my mums bigger round the waist it and it looks nice on both of us.
It is one of those skirts that can be worn any time for any occasion day, evening or even for an interview it was £17.00
I have paired it with a simple long sleeve black top from Matalan £7 , black boots from H+M £24.99 I bought two years ago they have zip detail on the outer side and have a faux suede look on the backs of the boots which I like and adds something different, tights from Primark these are different though at the time I didn't realise but they are tights till below the ankle then are thick socks clever invention and lastly I wore a necklace from Primark.

My New Bags

I had been going in H+M for a month wanting this fringe bag, but for some reason I never bought it which I kept regretting. Christmas came and I received it as a present I was so happy I love it. Its nothing like I have ready and it has 4 compartments for keys purse etc and so much space in the main part of the bag it also has two handles an arm and across body which is great for means I have zero shoulders and can only use across body bags.



I bought this burgundy duffel bag from Matalan in the sale it was £6, it has two zips at the from and two compartments inside for your purse and phone the main part of the bag has room for the essentials, though it was a great price I bought it because I love the colour.

OOTD

I had a day of doing nothing but errands so I kept my outfit simple and comfortable with my Newlook skinny jeans, they are such a great fit and soft also the boots £27.99 which for me are the best thing I bought all A/W. I actually bought two pairs of them I love them so much, the 3 buckles add something extra than a plain pair of black boots. My tartan over sized shirt is from Primark and it was a bargain at £8 I finished off my look with a couple of necklaces from Primark and h+m they were £2.99 each.

My Bedroom Decor

My home decor has changed over the last year, my room used to be lilac and now I'm more loving the grey tones its so elegant, clean and a classic look.


I've gone for grey, silver and white tones and adding texture with the fabrics I've used and put a personal touch with photos I've taken myself as art work to add a personal touch.


 I always like to have a gorgeous smelling candle beside my bed, this one I had for Christmas it is vanilla scented, I also have a book this one is the best of me I haven't yet seen the film as I wanted to read it first its a really good read so far cant wait to finish it.
 I have a lot of small rings and nick knacks this was a Christmas present its perfect for storing my dainty jewlery it is so cute and I love the hearts on the front.

If you read my blog over the summer you would of seen pictures that I took at my local park its my happy place to take time out and read, I took a few black and white photos so even when I am at home I can have a little bit of the park in my room, they worked out really well. 
I showed how I did this lighting in a previous blog post, it was just some flower lights inside a lantern, I also love for my room to smell lovely but not over powering when I'm sleeping this is a jasmine room oil scent its smells so good.

I had this throw for Christmas it is faux sheep skin soft wool on one side and smooth silver lining on the other you get 2 throws in one, its so nice to cosy up with it on cold nights.

 I bought these two hearts from Home base they were £2.99 each, I just hung them above each other and I think they are wooden and painted with a white effect.
I was given this mirror it is mirrored on the side it is on the wall opposite my window so it bounces the light around my room, it was £35 from Wilkinson as you can see in the picture I have a glass chandelier also.
 
I have 3 of the four walls painted alight grey I believe its called pearl grey in matt and the wall paper on the main wall is sliver with a metallic background and with a flower design
 
Lastly I bought these cushions from Primark they were £3 each one is a heart that is so soft you just want to snuggle it, the smaller square one has little sequins on and the other has a slight metallic effect on the one side also I bought a gift set that is a flower shaped candle shaped holder and another jasmine room scent for only £1 in the Christmas sale.
