I find that a pair of white jeans/trousers/leather trousers is an unequivocal staple in every girl's wardrobe due to three major elements. A, they are incredibly chic and stylish, and B, are slightly more upmarket that a regular pair of distressed jeans. If you are going for a look that requires a smart-casual attire, my white leather trousers from Zara would be my go-to, along with a blazer and a colourful pair of heels (see below for a surprise!). C, white trousers are versatile, given that white, similar to black, is such a compliment colour to pretty much anything. <div>

Biker jackets have been all the rage for a few years now, and while black leather has proved a key trend in the fashion world, I feel that, if paired wrongly, black leather can come across as harsh and almost standoffish. When stumbling across this pink suede and leather detailed jacket, I fell in love with the girly, yet still sophisticated nature it emanates. I rarely wear pink as I find it can be a bit in-your-face with its juvenile stigma QED Elle Woods, however, I really felt like the biker of it atoned for this, overall synthesising a young femininity (i.e. hypothetically, the Parisian element) from the pink, with a more street-style leather jacket (more or less, the New York street style)</div>

Brightly coloured shoes do not need to be $20 from Rubi shoes or Supre to be fabulous! Personally, when my eyes fixated on these two pairs of shoes, I immediately fell in love with the elegant street style and Parisian pump (respectively), not to mention the exotic richness of the colours. While both come in more conservative shades, I feel they wouldn't be half as charmingly wacky as they are in these vibrant blues. I would definitely intend on pairing them with a matching tote, maybe <a href="http://www.michaelkors.com/p/MICHAEL-Michael-Kors-MICHAEL-Michael-Kors-Small-Jet-Set-Scarf-Tote-TOTES/prod23510078_cat8519__/?index=42&cmCat=cat000000cat8501cat8519&isEditorial=false">this one</a> or <a href="http://www.michaelkors.com/p/Michael-Kors-Michael-Kors-Miranda-Novelty-Tote-TOTES/prod24590015_cat8519__/?index=77&cmCat=cat000000cat8501cat8519&isEditorial=false">this one</a> from Michael Kors, further, I feel they would look stunning with the pair of white trousers up above!<br /></div>

Aside the mass boom of vivacious florals and the conspicuous smiles of the sun-deprived world, there's nothing I truly love more than the rebirthing of pastel lace; it's girly, it's flirty and it's the easiest yet most charming thing one could possibly wear.</div>

<a href="http://www.warehouse.co.uk/?lng=en&ctry=GB&">The Warehouse</a> has been doing lace on and off for a few years now, though pleased to say I find the SS14 lineup the most promising so far. It's incredibly adaptable to anyone's individual style, not to mention the lace and pastel combination hints at the angelic innocence of beauty.</div>

I love shift dresses. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The colour of this dress reminds me of a seven a.m. start - crisp and fresh, ready to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
take on the day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like how this dress pulls in at the waist to for more figure definition</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
as sometimes, with shift dresses, the general sharp cut of the garment completely obscures the natural figure - good in some ways, but bad in others. </div>

BEAUTIFUL!<br />I love the colour, I love the shape of the dress. I love the lace.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love how this dress is so feminine and girly, yet the lace and the low back gives it a bit more</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of a sexiness for night time wear. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think this dress would be perfect on it's own with a pair of nude heels (as to not</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
distract the eye from the dress)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This dress also comes in a royal navy blue, though I prefer the red as it is more eycatching haha.</div>

It's no secret that I have an obsession for blazers - I find them perfectly chic and sophisticated.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The use of the lace aids to the femininity of the blazer and kind of tones down on the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
harshness of the sharp edges, like shoulders pads and the cut off sleeves, that would </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
generally feature on the blazer. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love how it is white, meaning you could wear it with practically anything. I think this blazer and both</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the above dresses would make a flawless combination, perfect to dance into</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for Spring.</div>

Heart shaped necklines, sharp pointed shoulders and pinched waistlines that spiral out into a waterfall of tule like a rosebud in bloom. Christian Dior - Haute Couture.</div>

There was something truly magnificent, something astoundingly beautiful that made my heart crave at the classic silhouette of Dior when I saw Jennifer Lawrence step out at the Oscars in a magnificent vividly red number. While slightly more toned down on the sweetness and sugar of the pearly Dior she wore when she glided down the carpet last year, this new red one reaffirmed my love for Dior. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While Audrey Hepburn's iconic look was predominantly Givenchy, Lawrence's dress reminded me of something Hepburn wore when she did step out in Dior; elegance, class and sheer femininity. Something incredibly 50s. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
With the kaleidoscope of colour, pattern and ambiguity that designers like Prada and Gucci are presenting through their representatives at the Oscars, I find something so simply beautiful through the classic mono-coloured dress. </div>

Yay or Nay?</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'll admit, at first when my nail technician stated the rising popularity of this new IN colour, Mushroom Grey, my first instinct was "absolutely no". I've never really found that fondness that my family all hold for mushrooms, so why on Earth would I want my nails painted in that colour?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While hesitant at first, after a long debacle, I was finally convinced to just chillax and let her do the work. Almost an hour and a half later, this is how I went home. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Looking to the photo and back at the nails now, I'll say that the colour combination is definitely growing on me. I like the nomadic grey tone against the brightness of the pink, as well as the little "Still January - still New Year's Month" festivity on the ring finger. </div>

This beautiful fitted silk blazer from Chloé deserves a spot in my wardrobe with the promise that I will probably wear it alongside absolutely everything I own as that is just how much I love it. A charmingly sophisticated, yet perfectly minimalist to dress up and down while still looking classy - perfect alongside a pair of skinny jeans or tailored trousers and heels.<br />

How have I only just come across Delpozo? Both the top and the shorts fit my personal style to a T. I would definitely wear the top with my pair of leather pants, and the shorts with a nicely cut black blazer with a light grey blouse or shirt underneath. Thoughts?</div>

I know this is kind of wild, and I don't think this would suit me at all, but there's something beautiful about these pleated trousers which caught my eye immediately. The closest garment I own to this is a pair of harem-ish style tweet trousers from Chloê, I don't own anything camel, either. According to Jan's American Vogue, Anna Wintour has stated that 2014 is a year to try new things, and express your personality on your sleeve.<br />

I love candles. They set the scene whether it's a romantic night for two, the key to a beautifully aromatic scent filling the whole house with beauty during the day, or the extra decorative piece added to a coffee table or mantel piece. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Along with the rose, Lavender is also a scent that I adore; maybe it brings back all the nostalgia of the lavender potpourri of my grandmother's place. It's not only an naturally delicate scent, but burning lavender oil before sleeping is one method to rest assure you of a good night's sleep. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
Several of the aspects I identify as the most defining feature coinciding with classic pieces is the use of linear cut and block coloured garments without the need for adding a thousand textures to create one pool of eye and mind confusing chaos (*cough* Prada 2014)<br />
<br />
I believe the perfect outfit consists of equilibrium between something that looks ground-breaking on the runway, but also something that one can wear on the streets without looking like a bouffant.<br />
<br />
To follow through with this, the act of wearing a single designer from head-to-toe will submerge the look in to chaos and flashy vulgarity, however, Bapista's absence of trending texture and juxtaposing colour makes this rare look applicable.<br />
<br />
While Felipe Oliveira Bapista's work doesn't quite date back to the iconic works of Chanel-Chanel or Schiaperelli, having only opened his self-titled house in 2003. I find a sense of this harmonious equilibrium carried through the his works, iconised by Chanel and Schiaperelli.<br />
<br />
Exploring in to a more minimalist territory that differs against the vibrance of his last Spring line, and distinguishes him from the boisterous textures of other high-end lines, Bapista has taken a minimalistic approach to his Spring line, hinting military and sophisticated masculine undertones, while softening this with the use of lighter colour connotation.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Ma Look Préférée:</span><br />
Whether it is the photography, the mise-en-scene or the garment choice, this image clearly stands out as significantly more elegant, delineating not only a look of sophistication, but emanating an unobtrusive storyline to complete the whole look.<br />
<br />
This look consists of a powerful mix between street-style and High-End chic, though not too bold to make the whole look overwhelming - a rare combination in modern day fashion.<br />
<br />
The crisp white swing coat allows for a rare versatility between dressing up or down, whether it be an eye catching purse, shoes, or statement jewellery to add a smidgen of colour to the otherwise, minimalist look.<br />
<br />
Call it boring, but after all, less is more, wouldn't you agree?<br />

<a href="http://data1.whicdn.com/images/97019922/large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://data1.whicdn.com/images/97019922/large.jpg" height="263" width="400" /></a></div>
Consistent exercise and dieting are the key ingredients in the fight towards weight-loss, yet contrary to popular belief, opting for just one of these won't achieve results. I know - I've tried.<br />
<br />
Today I'll be talking about snacking, something I think we're all pretty familiar with. How many times a day do we find ourselves sifting through the cupboard/fridge until we can find something sweet or savoury or totalling triple digits on the calorie count to satisfy our snacking hunger? For me, I'm a total chocoholic; particularly at this post-Christmas time of the year where we've a ready abundance of chocolate just waiting to be eaten.<br />
<br />
That being said, last week, I completely rebooted the kitchen snacking system; I did an enormous detox throw out of all the junk food sneaking around, and bought only the items I felt would aid in my reaching my goals.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><u>On the Go:</u></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Almonds (Essential fats and a whole lot of protein for a tiny nut)</li>
<li>Peaches (Antioxidants - think clear skin)</li>
<li>Bananas (High in potassium) </li>
<li>Berries (Antioxidants, again)</li>
<li>Blueberries (Superfood)</li>
<li>Greek yogurt (Calcium, no added sugar, natural bacteria: Mix two table spoons of Greek yogurt with one table spoon of a yummy yogurt, alternatively, use Splenda or Stevia to naturally sweeten the taste)</li>
<li>Celery (No sugar, full of water to hydrate) </li>
<li>Carrots (Make you see in the dark...Just kidding! Improved vision and reduces the risk of cancer)</li>
<li>Cucumber (Water rich, cure for hangovers, reduces the risk of cancer, aids in digestion)</li>
<li>Cashews (Low unsaturated fat, low GI, reduce risk of heart disease)</li>
<li>Dark chocolate square (No added sugar, lower blood pressure, increases brain blood flow)</li>
<li>Dried apricots, cranberries, apples, mango (with no added sugar)</li>
<li>Acai berries (antioxidants, amino acids, essential fatty acids)</li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><u>Light and Easy:</u></span></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Banana and chocolate powder Protein Shake (2 minutes)</li>
<li>Celery and peanut butter (1 minute)</li>
<li>Avocado, cottage cheese, diced tomato on a rye Cruskit x 2 (4 minutes)</li>
<li>Tuna on a rye Cruskit x 2 (2 minutes)</li>
<li>Kale, apple carrot grape juice (5 minutes) - as seen on <a href="http://www.shutterbean.com/2013/kale-apple-carrot-grape-juice/" target="_blank">Shutterbean</a> - life changer</li>
<li>Coconut water (can buy from a local vendor) </li>
<li>Hard boiled egg (3 minutes)</li>
<li>Berry salad (5 minutes - add greek yogurt and honey on top for a super healthy, delicious snack)</li>
<li>Protein pancakes (10 minutes) </li>
<li>Frozen yogurt covered fruit (freeze overnight for a light and easy morning snack)</li>
<li>Frozen berry, greek yogurt, banana smoothie (5 minutes)</li>
<li>Vegetable and cheese omelet (3 minutes)</li>
</ul>

If I could snap my fingers and have the wardrobe of someone else in an instant, it would be Olivia Palermo. A timely elegance mixed with the contemporary of a New York Chic.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've been spying on Olivia Palermo's fashion since The City, admiring her impeccable eye for garment harmony, and the way she is able to cleverly uphold a classic look and mixed with modern overlying garments and accessories, making her whole look timeless - whether it is a textured Chanel-Chanel (before Lagerfeld) blazer and short-shorts or trousers (See photos 5 and 7), or a sixties inspired shift-dress with statement heels and jewellery (see photos 2 and 8). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love the way she generally pieces monochromatic simplistic garments together, and then jazzes the whole look up with either a textured clutch (see photo 3), or a statement necklace (see photo 8) to give it the whole look some colour and movement. </div>

As we bid 2013 our final goodbyes and officially start to allow the 2014 reality to sink in, Pantone has declared the brand new colour of the year, and while I'm surprised it's not the cobalt blue I'd so adamantly anticipated, this new colour has evoked a whirl wind of elatedness in the fashion industry, and I'm pleased to say that I love it already.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Inspiring confidence, poise and independence, a girlish combination of sweet fuchsia, lavender and puce, the colour is just as gorgeous and unique as the captivatingly beautiful, delicately scented flower. Innocent and pretty, the colour also hints at an underlying sophisticated and intelligent aura, a perfect combination for the wearer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Make a stunning statement with a radiant orchid coloured purse, nails or shoes to easily femininise any outfit. While the colour is simply beautiful, I urge you not to go overuse the colourfor it will become too overwhelming and it will lose the simplistic charm and beauty about it. You can't have too much of a good thing, can you? </div>

The first feature to jump to mind is the beautiful, floral printed A-line. The fluid, knee-length skirt adds a flatteringly innocent femininity that contrasts against the contemporary sharply cut mid-drift. The black suede of the triangle toed pumps completes the look with grace and sophistication to follow up with the iconic fifties inspired skirt.<br />

This three-quarter length dress caught my eye, reminding me nostalgically of the red lace dresses that Valentino so symbolically created back in the day. The red hue of the dress provides an almost Spanish aura, complimented by the purple-black fabric placed behind it, giving the otherwise summery proclivity of the dress a wintery acceptance. The pattern of the dress accessorises an otherwise plain canvas, making it a statement of it's own without the need for much jewellry or "dressing up".<br />

<b>Ma look préférée:</b><br />
<div>
The reason I've chosen this one to be my favourite look is due to the dichotomy of timely simplistic elegance mixed with the contemporary of modern day fashion. I find blazers such an easy, yet visually effective technique to add a sophisticated elegance to any look, particularly when in pair with tailored trousers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
While sometimes trousers/jeans, blazers and blouses can provide a perception of masculinity, I often find it easy to defuse this through statement accessories and pumps (as seen above). Think Olivia Palermo, Chanel-Chanel and Victoria Beckham. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Maybe it's because I'm a block colour person or not, I tend to give this particular look some pizzazz through adding a single pop of colour e.g. maybe a red lip, and red pumps instead? A brightly coloured Hermes bag? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For someone who lacks considerably in the vertical department (i.e. someone who is quite short...i.e. me), tailored trousers, blouses and blazers help to elongate the body, giving a slimmer and longer figure. Furthermore, long, sharply-cut garments (particularly layered) add to hide any curves in unwanted places. </div>

Uh oh... Guess what happened. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I fell off the exercise bandwagon. Yup. It's bad.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Today I plucked up the courage to go out and go for a run around the beach with my friend at about noon, and maybe only fifteen minutes into the run was I spluttering and panting and going crazy and that's when it hit me that I hadn't done any consistent exercise for a good two...(maybe two and a half) months (I told you it was bad), and only the odd set of push ups every other night as an alibi. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Pleease don't judge me, we've all been there!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As of today, I'm going to re-boot my system, detox of all the feeling sorry and guilty about myself, and start over. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Maybe the reason why I fell off the band wagon was merely because I had fallen into the habit of doing precisely what I'm about to show you...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
♡ <u>EXCUSES, EXCUSES, EXCUSES</u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It's a universal truth that making up an excuse is always sososososo much easier than actually doing something, and I hands-down guarantee that I've done this before. Procrastinating is one of my talents.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
However, like most problems in life, there are always hidden solutions, and exercise is just one of those. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>- Don't have time?</b> Wake up earlier, go to bed earlier. Hard? Hell yes. Worth it? Hell yes.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>- Don't have a gym?</b> Unless you live in a plane or under the sea, I'm sure that outside of that front door, there is an explorable mass of land of which you can run for kilometers. If there's not, then where do you live?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- <b>Don't know how to start?</b> You don't know until you try, AND you don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great. Throw out all the junk food, smaller plates means smaller portion sizes, easy youtube tutorials and workshops and books. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

♡ <u>FEELING SORRY FOR ONE'S SELF DOESN'T DO ANYTHING</u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It's natural. Really. I promise. But does it get us anywhere.......hardly....</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Dust off your crown, Princess, sh!t happens and we just need to get over it! Refresh with the sun coming up tomorrow. Promise yourself. Make sticky notes of encouragement as stick them somewhere you can see them and start off slow...which leads to my next point...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Need motivation?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- Check out Lorna Jane's Move Nourish Believe blog. It's fabulous. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- I've been reading Lauren Conrad's blog and it covers pretty much every aspect of girly life, including a specific segment directly related to fitness. It's also fabulous</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><br /></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
♡ <u>THE "I'm going to wake up tomorrow at five and do a spin-class" MOTTO</u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I think it's fair to say we've all made this mistake.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Pretty much the number one rule of exercise and fitness to start off slow and then build up to it. Rome wasn't built in a day, honey, and believe me, you won't be doing yourself any favours by going all out on the first day.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If anything, there's maybe an 80% chance that this won't play the way you want it to, and only puts your body and mind under stress.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Not only does this lead to physical problems such as shin splints (you know that nasty ligament pain on the outer side of your calf that you can't stretch), Achilles rips (just above the back of your heel) and other bodily pains such as knees, respiratory and back, but over-exercising also leads to negative psychological consequences such as "that was awful, I'm never doing that again" which will only discourage you further.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
It's no secret that a good manicure can make or break an outfit. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
While indulging in a professional manicure is always the best way to spend a Friday afternoon, being a full time student, I don't have a lot of time on my hands, nor a readily available abundance of money to splash out on perfect nails, however, giving yourself a professional standard DIY manicure can also be a difficult and messy practise without the proper techniques.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
By observing what my technician was doing in the salon today, I was able to pick up these tips and tricks and hopefully achieve the perfect DIY manicure:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP ONE: Always start off with clean nails. Enough said. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap gets rid of any grubbiness and yuck that may be lurking on the surface or nail beds. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP TWO: Remove dead polish. While it may seem like the "easy way out", painting over already half-chipped nails is a big no-no. It ruins the nail surface, not to mention that it looks really cheap and careless. For shellac, you must use pure acetone on a little cotton ball and then wrap the finger in aluminium foil for ten minutes. After that, you can use an orange stick to scrub off any excess. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP THREE: Clip. Please. Talons are for eagles - not humans. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
File the nail down so that it is smooth. I always attempt to file my nails in an oblong or "squoval" shape. The "squoval" shape is strong enough to stop any chips from occurring in contrast to an oval or square which are prone to this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Buff the surface of the nail which an orange stick. This is important as it gets rid of any tiny bumps on the surface of the nail.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP FOUR: I then pamper my hands with a moisturising lotion. Right now, I'm using <a href="http://www.soapandglory.com/bath-body/scents/original-pink/hand-food">Soap and Glory's Hand Food. </a> I highly recommend this. Not only does it moisturise to the max, it smells divine, dries quickly, and unlike a lot of moisturisers, it doesn't leave my hands all greasy for the rest of the day. Bonus :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP FIVE: Go ahead and apply a clear base coat. This establishes a smooth surface for the colour to go on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP SIX: Depending on the pigmentation of the polish, apply two coats - maybe three if it's semiopaque</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
STEP SEVEN: My secret tip...or maybe not so secret ...get a Q-tip or swissper or whatever they call them, dip it in some nailpolish remover and just lightly wipe away any imperfections such as polish on fingers or whatever. You're welcome :)</div>

For my DIY manicure, I used Sinful Colours in the shade <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sinful-Colors-Professional-Polish-101/dp/B004KICAWY">Snow Me White</a> - a product I received in my November Bellabox. I'd never used a Sinful Colors polish before as I haven't seen them in the shops in Australia yet. </div>

Now that Spring time down south is officially making it's peak, it is officially floral season once again and time to make the most out of the season to be floral. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I find body mists a perfect way to spritz up an outfit as they're light, easy to wear and leave you feeling refreshed and fabulous whether it be a busy Monday morning, mid-day after lunch, or before going out at night. </div>

<div class="p1">
<div style="text-align: center;">
♡ Pure Seduction: </div>
<b>Scent: </b>Red Plum and Sweet Freesia<br />
<b>Rating: </b>9/10<br />
<b>Pros: </b>Smells like heaven and once you're hooked, you can never go back :O<br />
<b>Cons: </b>Slightly overpowering<br />
<br />
This is definitely my favourite of the whole collection so far. You can kind of see above that Pure Seduction is definitely the one I've used up the most. I got the dual pack with the body lotion so unlike the others, this body mist bottle is only 125mL in comparison to the others of which are 250mL, meaning that it's small enough to tuck into my bag just for a refreshing spritz throughout the course of the day.<br />
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
♡ Such a Flirt: </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Scent: </b><span style="text-align: center;">Starfruit and White Orchard</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><b>Rating: </b>8/10</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><b>Pros: </b>Pretty, flirtatious but not seductive, cute</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><b>Cons:</b> Can be a little shy in the sense that it wears off after only a couple of hours so you need to keep applying</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Scent-wise, this is my second favourite underneath the one above. </span>The scent is super Spring and perfect to spruce up a beautiful Sunday morning. Literally, think stepping outside when the sun is shining, wearing a summer dress and feeling magnificent with birds tweeting and you're favourite song playing in the background. This is the scent that goes with that scenario.</div>

♡ Hello Darling</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Scent: </b>W<span style="text-align: center;">hite Nectarine and Peony </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><b>Rating: </b>8/10</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><b>Pro: </b>Makes Monday mornings, or any morning earlier than about 8am just that much easier</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><b>Cons: </b>It ran out too fast :(</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Okay. It's a Monday morning, it's raining and you have a tonne of work to do and even though you've only been awake for twenty-five minutes, you just feel like nothing's going the right way. HOLD UP, SISTER, a spritz of this and it turns the whole morning into a fairytale. It's liquid motivation to have a wonderful day. The nectarine fills in the capacity for the day's little luxury so you can go into work with a smile, smelling fresh and beautiful. I find this scent best suits in summer. Did you know that the peony is a traditional Chinese symbol meaning "King of the Flowers"? There you go, now you do :D</span></div>

♡ Love Spell: </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Scent: </b>Cherry Blossom and Peach </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Rating: </b>7/10</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Pro: </b>a bit more sultry and sexier than the former - perfect for going out at night</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Con: </b>I only got the body lotion so it's a bit hard to distinguish the fully developed scent of this one.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Like the other VS body lotions, this one leaves my skin ultra moisturised which is perfect for winter as I find that my hands especially dry out with the cooler weather. I tend to apply this just after a shower in the morning and it pretty much lasts the whole day for me. </div>

♡ Strawberries & Champagne: </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Scent: </b>Strawberries and Champagne</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Rating: </b>6.5/10</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Pros: </b>Classy, pizzazz, very unlike the rest of the mists</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Cons: </b>The scent can become a bit overpowering if not applied with modesty. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is my second oldest; what I really like about this one is that it's perfect for going out on a Friday, but it's not necessarily trashy per se, however, a lot of popular perfumes (especially all the celebrity perfumes i.e. Britney Spears) have a prominent sickly scent and while it's quite "in" and the scent that most of my friends go to, I don't really like it. Unfortunately, this one has a tinge of that scent, though if you apply it properly and don't go crazy (a mistake I've obviously made), it's great for a fun night out.</div>

♡ Sheer Love:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Scent: </b> White Cotton and Pink Lily </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Rating: </b>7/10</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Pros: </b>Together with Flirt, this one sum up Spring in one scent.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Cons: </b>Not very strong at all, I guess they call it Sheer Love for a reason :P</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My lovely friend bought this for me for my sixteenth. I find that this one is very delicate, modest and cute, though really lovely. I kind of envisage myself wearing this with my mother's pearls, if you know what I mean. It's a bit more sophisticated than the rest and more of a Sunday white's lunch than anything.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
♡ Amber Romance: </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Scent: </b>Amber and Creme Anglaise </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Rating: </b>8/10</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Pros: </b>For me, this smells like cold winter nights with a cup of hot chocolate watching Downton Abbey</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Cons: </b>Strong scent, but still beautiful</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This one's the cold winter night sitting at home watching TV or reading a book, or maybe I just turned it into that? I tend to wear this to bed as it has a really lovely vanilla and homely and calming scent on. If I could describe it in any other way, I'd say that unlike the others, it's a bit more eau de parfum instead of toilette as it's a bit more passionate (?) I don't know. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
As a wrap up, if you haven't owned any of the Fantasies Body Mists from VS just yet, I'd definitely urge you to go out and give it a try as they're cheap, and beautiful and the perfect way to spruce up any outfit. There are so so many different scents and I'm sure they all appeal to different people depending on what they like, so I'm sure there's something for everyone.<br />

Life UpdateCan you believe that the last time I posted on this little blog was July? Like, what? To answer some questions, no I have not died, nor gone to heaven (touch wood) but I've just been so extraordinarily busy with my (Australian GCSE equivalent) and pre-study and family and relationships and I literally just kept forgetting to post on my blog.<br />
<br />
Breaking it down so I don't babble on for too long:<br />
<br />
- I've turned sixteen!! YAY! But I barely feel any older or wiser or maturer...<br />
<br />
- I broke up with a guy. Not sure how to feel about this yet, but everything happens for a reason.<br />
<br />
- I blew my phone and parent's internet bill a few times ;P<br />
<br />
- I've been busy as a beaver studying for my exams<br />
<br />
- My vocal coach is trying to find me a busking license and a gig to perform at so I've been going crazy over that!<br />
<br />
So there you have it. A wrap up and life update. Even though I've not been blogging and I suppose it's only acceptable to say that I'm kind of out of the swing of blogging and posting and whatnot, I prommmmise that over the months I've conjured some fabulous new ideas for blogging (that of which including pre-blogging and posting when I need to, as well as having a specific schedule so I don't forget :P) and that I'm back and I'm here to stay.<br />

<br />
Before July creeps onto us too quickly, I thought I'd ought to do my June Bellabox before my July one arrives! This month, I was extra lucky to receive quite a bit of stuff which is super cos it means a fun review!<br />
<br />

<br />
As seen from the gorgeous little juxtaposition above, the box last month was indeed a combo box regarding box "girls night in and girls night out" which personally, I think is a fabulous idea!<br />
<br />

The <b>Kiss Nail Dress</b> nail accessories are so cute. I'm not sure if everybody got different nail stickers, or the same or whatever, but I'm so glad I got these glitzy nail stickers. You probably won't know this but its my birthday on the 21st, meaning that I'm going to have a glitzy 16th party, and naturally, these nail stickers completely fit the "dress code" - thus I haven't actually used them yet so I can't provide a complete review on it, but when I do I'll let you know.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They're for both finger and toe nails, and supposedly last up to 10 days which, if this is true, proves very durable. I've used nail stickers before so I'll definitely be interested in comparing the two of them :)</div>

Unfortunately, I was disappointed with this face-mask from Montagne Jeunesse. Firstly, I was curious to try this on as I'd never heard of the brand before, nor seen it in Australian stores, however, I was looking forward to trying on the face-mask as it looks natural and organic (see the next picture for the deal) which is right up my alley, but when I applied it, I noticed a strange red tinge spreading across my cheeks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My face rashed from this for some reason. It stung and I'm not sure why. I know I have very sensitive skin, though not oily nor dry, so I think for now, I'll stick with the fresh ingredient face-masks that I make at home or buy at Lush.</div>

I got a whole pamper packet of these little samples from Brazilian Butterfly:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- tea-tree body lotion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- aloe and witch hazel body lotion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- gentle exfoliating body scrub</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- BB soothe ingrown hair treatment</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- aloe and witch hazel body wash</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The ones I probably liked the most were the aloe and witch hazel wash and body lotion. The one I was least inclined to use was the tea-tree body lotion as it reminded me of the lice-treatment smell that the one kid in your grade 5 primary school class reeks of! Maybe that's just me? No? Okay. haha</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Regardless of having said that, each of the products did their jobs well; the hand creams leaving my skin soft as heaven and the exfoliators/scrubs getting rid of impurities but not damaging the skin.</div>

It was almost funny getting this packet as I used to work at Toni and Guy, and using this product on people all the time! While it states its purpose for an "androgynous hold", my personal style doesn't necessarily use texturising hair glue (as I tend to go for a more...natural, feminine look...but hey, whatever floats your boat, right?), but I actually gave this to my brother to try out and he came back with the results for me - who knew siblings could co-operate in such a polite manner? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
His deliberations included:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- firm</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- not gluggy </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- smells like a hair salon (thanks Charlie.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- durable</div>

I received the baby pink (209) lipgloss from Streetstar. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love the colour. I love the smell. I love the sparkles. It's perfect for adding a little bit of shimmer to a night out, but not overkill. Plus, I don't really have just a pale pink sparkly lip gloss so this did just the ticket.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was a bit concerned about this product because apparently, some of the customers to this Bellabox received this lipgloss, though it was out of date, and just coincidentally (and rather stupidly), I threw out the packet before finding this out, so I don't really know if it's out of date, however, it smells, looks and applies as though it's fine, so I'd say it is fine.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Love Bioderma...enough said. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Haha, just kidding. I found this product smooth and silky. The part that got me was the Paraben free, fragrance free part for sensitive skin, as I do have sensitive skin, thus it worked wonders as it was gentle and ...forgiving...?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The only downside was the packet was only 8mls in product so I didn't really get much to try it with in total. I don't know if i'd purchase it yet, though I'll give the other one a try and see what I think.</div>
<br />

<br />
Perfect. I'm almost tempted to put this underneath the sparkly nail accessories above as I think the gold and red would go nicely as a statement for my 16th. What do you think? I've kind of gone off the colour red, though this had me hooked.<br />
<br />
It's almost a fluorescent red which is different from the passionate (whaaat?) and deeper reds I'd go for, so when I applied it, I found it added some pizzazz into my life! I've used many Natio products before, though never a nail polish so I was interested to see what it was like. The only thing was that it was a bit watery, but other than that it was smooth, pigmented, and just generally a nice colour.<br />
<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Like one of the products above, I've never actually heard of this product brand before, so when I tried it on, I was curious to see what it was like.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really liked it. I found it perfect underneath make-up, as well as perfect on its own to give one a bit of a dewy and glowing look, which I really liked about it. It wasn't thick, nor heavy. It didn't have any SPF (of which I could see), which would have been a downside for me as I tend to burn quickly in the sun, however, the product was generally really nice. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So that's it! Sorry if it sounded a bit negative today, for some reason, I'm just not motivated at the moment. I've been in Melbourne again for the week so I'm still in the "holiday" zone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Have a nice week everybody!</div>

<i><b><br /></b></i>
<i><b>So Google Friend Connect is kind of closing down which is a bummer, but the good news is that I've finally found the motivation to update my Bloglovin page after a few months of just have some basics and such...</b></i><br />
<br />
(READ IN THE CHIRPY-OPTIMISTIC-HIGH-ADVERTISING-WOMAN'S-TV VOICE)<br />
<br />
Hello friends!<br />
<br />
To make sure we can keep in close contact, there are a few small, yet vital steps that you need to take in order to get regular updates on my blog...<br />
<br />
STEP NUMBER ONE)<br />
To start this procedure, you must click this link <a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/4524149/lucy-de-rouge-love-dream-life">HERE</a><br />
<br />
And it should take you to a page that looks like this:<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFD48geuJcNSOLRMSGXMnWwoHLia6CLWeXv7V7uB4m9xtZCxPJpbtReQG0mGN-cQAEx-JrT8K_zQxwBeEKIk055SKvYjeVbE9f6rfiLz_8Ds-7sPoR-W0RmMbzKvDBQ7f0oIV1LT5Xwwo/s1016/bloglovin.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFD48geuJcNSOLRMSGXMnWwoHLia6CLWeXv7V7uB4m9xtZCxPJpbtReQG0mGN-cQAEx-JrT8K_zQxwBeEKIk055SKvYjeVbE9f6rfiLz_8Ds-7sPoR-W0RmMbzKvDBQ7f0oIV1LT5Xwwo/s640/bloglovin.png" width="640" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Yes, my follower's number is shameful...</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
STEP NUMBER TWO)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You must then move your mouse across the page until you see this button:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKIBSp2M7vJfzH6CCR5ExkDo9DPyoLY8-AlAqofcT6YLLZBGs8rjVxPfH6e6TlSgazvbghk9fuXhKYB2c1QUTtFWhttYCLGdAPsnJRtPtASZnsC0sbbOgKgF8fAWEbK-nRQvZgwElbAPw/s107/bloglovin2.tiff" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKIBSp2M7vJfzH6CCR5ExkDo9DPyoLY8-AlAqofcT6YLLZBGs8rjVxPfH6e6TlSgazvbghk9fuXhKYB2c1QUTtFWhttYCLGdAPsnJRtPtASZnsC0sbbOgKgF8fAWEbK-nRQvZgwElbAPw/s400/bloglovin2.tiff" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You must then click this button, and it will soon magically evolve into this button:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqdjN4vdeyCsjByDRf7VvfAvBLwd74-ATRmQmMA9N58ux5QG5l5g-Q-xeR4hOOQLBB-MKyULfe44d95_34-1foV0Fz8s1wgXYueKryexsjaDyC0H7CfGI85Akv8jY2wONGb4xcYty0kzU/s248/bloglovin3.tiff" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="129" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqdjN4vdeyCsjByDRf7VvfAvBLwd74-ATRmQmMA9N58ux5QG5l5g-Q-xeR4hOOQLBB-MKyULfe44d95_34-1foV0Fz8s1wgXYueKryexsjaDyC0H7CfGI85Akv8jY2wONGb4xcYty0kzU/s640/bloglovin3.tiff" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
STEP NUMBER THREE)<br />
<br />
You then have the majestical choice to do one of the following:<br />
<br />
a) Close the window with the assurance that whenever I update my blog, you will receive a little notification, as well as a follow-back from me!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i><u>OR</u></i></b></div>
<br />
b) Add me to your favourites by simply clicking the "Add to a group" and choosing one of the following:<br />

<br />
Thank you for following my blog on Bloglovin'....I promise I will follow back. So sad about GFC...Alternatively, you can just click the button on the North-Right side of my blog...The flashing Eiffel Tower!<br />

<br />
Well hello lovely friends!<br />
<br />
At the start of this year, it is accustomed in my family to always make a list of new year's resolutions, of things to sort of aim to achieve within the year. As usual, I started my list off (And if you want to see the post, <a href="http://luceindia.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/2013-resolutions.html">click here</a>) with the usual "be kinder, be gracious, be elegant..." all that kind of stuff, and by the end of the list. "loose a tad of weight"<br />
<br />
After all, what is a new year's resolution without it, eh?<br />
<br />
<i>But seriously, they are new year's resolutions. Who actually follows through with them? </i>You say.<br />
<br />
This year, probably one of my main resolutions was to follow through with my resolutions.<br />
<br />
I've never been particularly sporty...in other words, you know that kid that always manages to somehow get a ball to the head, or fall over when they're just standing still...well, that was me. And it still is.<br />
<br />
So, I've decided to take matters into my own hands by aiming to go to the gym at least three times a week, and for about four months (at the start of the year), this went so well. I felt so much more confident with the way I looked, and I felt like a better person.<br />
<br />
Doing this was possibly the best thing I'd ever begun to do, so today, I'm going to kind of make a post explaining how I achieved this.<br />
<br />
***I am by no means a nutritionist, personal trainer or expert in any field of fitness, I am merely a teenager who is aiming to get healthy. :) ***<br />
<br />
<b>STEP NUMBER ONE: Cut the emotional dreaming crap.</b><br />
I was used to spending nights sitting up in my bed until two a.m. literally whining about my body, my fitness, all that kind of stuff. I would complain and be depressing and everyone else would be all "Shut up, Lucy". And by the time the new year rolled so slowly around when it kind of hit me that I was never, <i>ever</i> going to tone up or lose weight if all I did was sit in bed complaining. And my Mum then came in an gave me a huge lecture about it.<br />
<br />
<i>It's good to dream, but you're never going to get somewhere unless you take action into your own hands.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
And with that, I literally decided that I would turn my life around (HALLELUJAH). It is a bit of a crude wake-up call, but in all seriousness, it is quite true.<br />

I'm not a diet analyst or anything of the sort, but of course if one were to be eating high calorie, fat, carb foods, then naturally, one would put on some.<br />
<br />
One needs to have a good ratio between eating healthily and exercising, and my mum told me (and this is the part where I'm not sure about) that 60% of a health/fitness kick comes from cutting down on unhealthy foods. Having said that, exercise is totally important, especially if, like me, you want to tone up a bit more.<br />
<br />
I'd highly recommend looking up at blogs for quick and easy to make foods, of which are all very healthy and go on websites like:<br />

<br />
<br />
On the topic of food, it's so important NOT TO CUT MEALS!!!!DDDDOOOO NOOOTTT CUT OUT ON MEALS!<br />
<br />
I know my teenage friends think that cutting breakfast and going on an empty stomach is the highway for skinniness, but it is so not. Here are the reasons why:<br />
<br />
1. Cutting meals slows your metabolism (slower metabolism means it takes a longer time to lose weight)<br />
<br />
2. Oh my god, you will be so hungry!!! I can't go more than about two hours without sustenance.<br />
<br />
3. While you may get off for about a week or two of not eating specific meals, in the long term, it encourages binge eating not a week later, consuming a high amount of calories in a short time span<br />
<br />
4. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it enforces concentration and focus in the brain. If you are going to have a big meal, have it at breakfast, that way you can burn it off over the day naturally.<br />
<br />
<b>STEP NUMBER THREE: Get Motivated</b><br />
I always find that the hardest part of getting into motivation is..... getting into my gym gear, though once I'm in my gear, I'm determined to do a good work out. For me, should I be totally slap-on-the-couch unmotivated (as I was about a month ago), I go out and buy some fabulous gym gear from shops like Lorna Jane, Lululemon, Victoria's Secret, etc.<br />
<br />
This not only gives me an excuse to shop, but also motivates me to actually work and exercise in something comfortable and lovely at the same time.<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>STEP NUMBER FOUR: Make Time</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://data.whicdn.com/images/65181861/large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://data.whicdn.com/images/65181861/large.jpg" height="640" width="478" /></a></div>
<b><br /></b>
One doesn't find time to work out, one makes time.<br />
<br />
As you know, I am still in school and that takes up a huge amount of time - schooling, co-curricular, homework, test prep, assignments, friends, and other things. Last year, I used to get up at five to go to the gym before school, but who on Earth was I kidding? I was absolutely shizzled after about a month of that.<br />
<br />
Now, I go after school between about four to seven depending on what I have on that day.<br />
<br />
Before finding out what times I could go, I wrote up a plan of which days I had to do what, and when I could slot in a work-out.<br />
<br />
I've been ill for the past week, however, I still exercised even though today I only went for half-an-hour. Putting in to perspective, doing something is better than doing nothing.<br />
<br />
If you can't go to the gym, do those fabulous little 30 day ab workouts or conduct home workouts like Pilates, yoga or running around the block with the dog.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The Perks of Outside Exercise</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
<b>STEP NUMBER FIVE: Stick With It!!!!!</b><br />
The second hardest part (which ties in with motivation), is to stick with it. Once you're in it for about a month, you get this feeling when you begin to crave exercise and being healthy. Because I have been sick, this has been the worst part of it all because its this gut feeling when I could have done something, and I haven't.<br />
<br />
I go to the gym with my mum and it's so much better than going alone. Grab a pal and hit the gym or go for a run and then go for a smoothie afterwards. I feel so much more motivated to exercise when I have a friend to exercise with! It passes the time so much quicker, and it keeps you going in the long-term, setting you into a habit.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
In a nutshell, the year will go on whether one does exercise or not, but in the long run (<~~~ hehehe punny right there), how and where do you want to see yourself when next year rolls around.<br />

Hello hello.<br />
<br />
This is going to be a quick post today because my brother is being a dick and is pissing me off to the absolute maximum, thus making me really, really unmotivated to write anything at the moment.<br />
<br />
In case you haven't guessed, my June style Icon(s) are the Olsen Twins. I have loved these girlies since reruns of Full House which is so old, and now I feel so old having just said that!<br />
<br />
I love their curly hair, its so casual and generally looks very healthy and somehow it looks so ...(trying to find a word...) effortlessly chic though I'm sure they went through a particularly lengthy process on how to get it done. Having recently worked in a hairdresser, I believe that they would use a salt-spray to get such a summery just-come-out-of-the-sea look.<br />
<br />
I also love their make-up. They have really pale eyes so I reckon that a smoky eye looks fantastic on them, especially with a dark red lip.<br />
<br />
While their style is more boho/grunge and mine is a bit lighter and slightly more girly/preppy, I do admire how effortlessly they can piece things together.<br />
<br />
Tell me what you think of them? I just love them haha!<br />
<br />
