Get Healthy , Energised , Clean & Lean !!

Happy Tuesday !

It was a cold and snowy day and if I didn't stay home all day , I can't imagine how I would have coped with all that snow. The Beast from the East is sooooo cold , but it was a good day ,most schools were shut as the children could not make it through the snow although most of the kids in the neighbourhood decided to go outdoors build snowmen and have a sleigh rides . The joys of being small and not have a care in the world . The best years !

When you are home you think of great things , as you sip coffee on the sofa and day dream . We make great plans to start eating healthy and smart without a focus being on losing weight . When you have positive goals , and choose food high in nutrition , you will begin to feel energised , clean and lean !

Here are some great tips to help you get started on the road to a healthy happy you !

1. Stay hydrated with water
Squeeze lemon or lime into your water which promotes alkalinity and wards off diseases. It promotes bright eyes and skin and offers a dose of Vitamin C.

2. Add protein to your morning meal
To stay fuller longer and feel stronger through to lunchtime, egg whites, linseed bread, smoked salmon and cottage cheese pancakes, and oatmeal porridge are all great alternatives to jam & toast, sweetened yogurts and cereals .

3. Eat a portion of leafy green vegetables every day
Eg. spinach, kale, and watercress. This gets your digestion back on track and restores vital vitamins and minerals which you might have lost with a hectic week.

4. Soup
If you have partied too hard, get back on track with vegetables based soups that contain no dairy. This will re hydrate you and restore electrolytes that can be lost after consuming  alcohol. It also fills you up and you are less likely to snack on a packet of chips.

5. Exercise  : Always remember to keep active the more you do to keep your body active the better you will begin to feel . You will also add at least 10 years to your life . By exercise I don't mean go out and run 10 kms and do heavy workouts if that's not what you generally do . No just go for a 15 minute walk each day . Use the steps and a little 10 minute workout at home is all you need to make a difference .

Any day is a good day to get yourself motivated to begin a healthy diet and start living a life to make yourself happy . Have an awesome day and keep smiling . A shout out to a special person who celebrates his birthday on the 28th of February . Get that Winner in , you can do it :) Happy Birthday xx

Love & Peace.

Colourful Bags for Cold February !

Happy Sunday !!

How was your weekend ? Mine was quite and lazy and I didn't want to budge from the house bitterly cold outside with temperatures falling in the night to minus seven it's absolutely no fun ! I used to like the cold as a child and a young woman well now not so much . The beast from the east will be blowing all week making things freezing cold so warm hearty soups , stews and comfort food will be keeping me warm and satisfied .
For this blog colourful bags to lift your mood and put a nice smile on someone's face if they see you walking with a pretty bag . Colour on grey days lifts the mood and brightens our eyes . Just like I love to see people walking with red coats , and yellow and mustard and white on winter days . Black jackets are so dull and last year .

Outfit Inspiration & Thoughts !!

Happy Wednesday !

Today's outfit inspiration cool , chic and classic , with this season's mustard knit being bang on trend . The hat is optional , but with the cold showing no signs of letting up you want a hat to keep you warm . Did you see her Majesty the Queen make an appearance at London Fashion week ? I thought it was such a lovely idea that she showed her fun side and appreciation of fashion at her age and make an appearance . An absolutely brilliant idea from her public relation team to show she is still evolving with today's young generation . But didn't you think it was awfully rude an ungracious of Anna Wintour  US editor of Vogue to keep her very dark sunglasses on while she sat and kept company with the Queen indoors ! The first row of the catwalk . I am not really a fan of Ms Wintour who has zero manners , and a very high opinion of herself ! I remember reading somewhere she's probably got herself  a small forehead tattoo somewhere in the 60's and now cannot abandon her heavy fringe ,lol !!!

Did you see a photo today of Jennifer Lawrence with a bunch of guys and the photo was captioned what's wrong with this pic ?  The thing that was very wrong was so obvious to see , while all those men were dressed for Winter with thick jackets etc on a roof top the sexy Jennifer was in a very revealing gown . Now was that necessary? Women go out to provoke sexuality , nothing wrong with it  but then we have that Me Too campaign to protest sexuality and be treated equally <lol ..  At the recent event while most of the women wore all black their outfits were very revealing and bordering on hypocritical  . I was not impressed . Our Duchess did very well to dress in green and not follow this pretentious bandwagon . Always dress to please yourself and be the woman you want to be . if your on a tree barking equality don't walk around like a cheap tramp . We hardly see men coming to award shows showing a six pack or their biceps .  I prefer a woman being a woman sexy and all but I don't claim to be just the same as a man . Physically I am weaker and there are things a man can do like opening all those impossibly tight jars that I can't !  While women shout they are equal , nothing would satisfy me more than  women competing in the same sport as a MAN and trying to get the medals ! I don't see that happening EVER !! Tennis , for one I would love to see women win three sets to lift the trophy , lol GET ME !!!

Beat The February Weather & Get Glowing :)

Happy Saturday!

The weekend is here, it's February and it's dull weather outside, completely dark by 4.15 in the afternoon but you still want to glow, look bright like you've just returned from a great holiday and you are buzzing!

You can achieve this by getting rid of tired eyes. Dark circles can strike at any age and are due to a combination of dehydration and hyper-pigmentation and inflammation as well as of course genetics! "Even Better Eyes" dark circle corrector at 28 pounds from clinique.co.uk instantly covers the shadow, but also lightens the skin with brightening Vitamin C and protects against irritation with green tea extract.

After a summer of air-con, all that dry air, cold winds to your skin has probably lost all its luster. So slough away all the dead cells with a good face scrub. All the high street stores stock own brands but my favorite has to be he St. Ives scrub. Finish with a good moisturizing face cream or serum. My favs are always from the Neutrogena range!

Blemishes: Sunblock, too much make up, can all lead to blocked pores. Cleanse everyday with a good facial cleanser. I recommend Purity Facial Cleansing Gel & Eye-Makeup remover 17.50 at Philosophy. Apply later a good facial serum to to moisturize overnight.

Pale Skin: in the winter without any sun, our skin gets so pale with pasty bits and feels dull. Au Natural is always good but a nice bronzing powder adds a little bit of color and could boost your confidence. But if you prefer a gradual little tan try "Sol Mate Self Tan Souffle" at 22 pounds from Temple Spa. Which has hydrating cocoa butter and anti-inflammatory thyme.

A very important factor to keep in mind is to be aware of the products you use and the chemicals they have in them, which is very bad for you. The absolute worst is these deodorants with a 48 hour protection to stop you from sweating. Can you imagine the chemicals used in such a product to stop the body from producing sweat? I have been using them for a while and started getting a lot of pain around my under arm. These chemicals are absorbed into the body and can cause a lot of other issues. I am so happy I am now aware of this and want to share it with people who may not know.

Above all, don't forget a healthy diet with lots of fruit. It does wonders for your complexion and good for your body and over-all health. Keep hydrated by drinking lots of water. A supplement of Vitamin D is perfect for winter, and it can boost your energy levels!

Enjoy the weather, whatever it is, and keep smiling. Have an awesome day!

Sunday Outfit Inspiration & Thoughts !

Happy Sunday !

The Winter Olympics have started the opening ceremony was grand and nicely done , I wouldn't say it was spectacular because there have been ones in the past which were extraordinarily good . The lighting of the Olympic flame was an event to watch . It looked very cold and I believe extra blankets were given out but one athlete actually walked bare bodied some feat !! Even though he was well oiled I'll bet he catches an almighty cold and winds up sick soon ,lol ... Lets hope Great Britain can get some Gold medals home , keeping my fingers crossed .

Chinese New Year is not too far away , that means if you missed out on New Year resolutions , making and setting goals for yourselves don't miss out you are getting another chance . It's never to late to begin. It's the Year of the Dog beginning February 16th . As I heard it's going to be a good year with friendship , loyalty ,love all playing big parts as the qualities of the Dog are highlighted . Being a friend , companionship should help us find it easier to be a good friend and listen and love others more without judgement and preconceived notions .  So we should be able to help others suffering with depression , anxiety , panic attacks and suicidal thoughts .  Reach out to others and hear people out . Be friendly like your dog would be completely non judgemental . This year should make it easier for us to achieve because we will be fearless like a dog and we shall rush out to achieve things that have normally made us hesitant . If you have a dog give it extra love and attention . Just like our friends we shall be more loved for it !

Today my winter outfit inspiration should give you all the things a grey cold winter day needs . Flowers for beauty on the jeans and set your denim apart your friends . The vest is a beautiful shade of red for colour to brighten your mood and that beautiful handbag can carry an awful lot of your stuff with plenty of space for a nice fat wallet :) I personally love the brown jacket , it's extra warm and nice and long to keep yourself snug and cosy ! Enjoy all items are available online and listed below .

Does Year Of The Woman Mean We Should Become Drag Queens ?

Happy Sunday !

Sunday, the fun day. Time for relaxation, music, catch-up movies and some nice food. Time as well for meditation and exercise. If you managed to catch the Celebrity Big Brother Final on Friday I'm sure you saw the lovely Shane / Courtney Win .. In celebrating the Year of The Woman they gave the first place to a Man !!! Yes she dresses up in drag and is a Drag Queen. I loved Courts , but I thought it was highly inappropriate , celebrating Women and quietly ignoring strong women like Amanda Barrie , Anne Widecombe for a drag queen . Just think what Emily Pankhurst , Rosa Parks , Elizabeth 1 etc would think of it ?? Real women are much more than just women we go through a lot of stuff and not necessarily dress up to the nines like drag queens . We have Periods from as young as 11 which lasts 35 plus years , it's an ordeal !! The physical pain, discomfort and mostly available for our Monthly FLOW are these little pads which give little freedom . In order to have the flow in one place Wings and Yes Night time pads 24/7 for those 5 days is what women use no joke ! Giving birth Yes drag Queens need to do that , lol . Does being a Woman mean now we can all dress over the top go to work and do our business dressed up like Queens and it's acceptable ??  I think you won't last a day anywhere . Maybe next year we should celebrate Year of The Drag Queen and give it to a Woman !!! Is the World losing the plot ? In celebrating women we need to show Women itś okay to be yourself and keep strong opinions like Anne and still be respected . You can choose not to have children and even if you are 25 and you want to have your tubes tied it's your choice . Don't force women to go on Birth Control , encourage men to have a Vasectomy !! Give Women freedom to stay home with their kids till they are adults and nobody look funny ... You Know WHY Because Women should have rights ! Are Women free ??? NO , NO , NO !!
Okay so here are some pretty bralettes wear it and feel feminine  cause we can !!
 
 You might think it's very cute , if you are wearing a very sheer top you could pair it with a lovely bralette. They are beautiful and don't let your age hamper you from getting something you really like! Remember Drag Queens are of all ages and not one of them is shy of going overboard and we all celebrating them . So be a Woman be glamorous be over the top because YOU CAN !
