An outfit I'm loving

I just thought I'd share my current favourite outfit with you all!
Basically its a cute little chiffon type material floral dress which is elasticated around the waist with an over sized baby pink cardigan.
Both are from primark, the dress was £10 and the cardigan was £13 I think. Either way I love them and they suite being put together in one outfit.




I'm still wearing dresses with wooly tights because I'm not brave enough to leave the house with thinner ones on yet. Wimp I know.


The sleeves are short aswell, which means I'll be able to wear this into the summer months aswell!


 A full length look at the outfit! No shoes you might notice though. I just wear plain black ballet pumps or little brown studded ballet pumps from New look.


My make-up was pretty minimal; N07 mascara, collection concealer, Clinique Matte invisible powder and mememe shimmer stack blusher. (Twp of these I spoke about in my last favourites post current favourites post and powder I last spoke about here; travel make-up bag I'm yet to speak about the blush, that'll be soon I'm sure! Look at me linking everything.)

Hope everyone's okay!

Spring has sprung

Happy Sunday to you all!
This week we've had some decent weather in Blackpool so I've been on a few walks and taken my camera with me and snapped a few shots. It amazes me that there are places which look so pretty literally at the bottom of my street, it makes me excited for the summer and spending more time outside!

I just wanted to share a few of the pictures I have taken, on here.

My week(s) in pictures

This post has got nearly 3 weeks of pictures in...well done for regularly blogging Hannah. 


Anyways I have had a super busy but super exciting few weeks!
Me being me didn't put the pictures in any sort of order, round of applause for me.

The two pictures of my dog- I've spent a lot of time at home in my spare time these past few weeks and alot of that time has been spent with my dog. The two pictures are just two of many I've taken these past few weeks but these two just make me laugh.
The two artsy nature pictures- Look at that photography work. This week the weathers been quite nice so I've gone on a few walks with my dad and the dog. Whilst out on these walks I've snapped these two pictures which I'm quite happy with(I'm going to blog a few more of the pictures I've taken soon in a post!)
The random picture of 3 letters on a page- Just after Christmas we had mock exam week at college and these were my results, they were a huge huge surprise when I got the piece of paper because I thought my exams had gone rubbish, so now its time to knuckle down and get tonnes of revision done ready for the summer exams, eeek!
The purple-y picture of a man- This is one of very few decent pictures I took at the Rizzle Kicks concert I went to a few weeks ago! Me and two friends spent the day queuing in the freezing cold but it was all worth it as we were front row and had an amazing time! If anyone gets a chance to see Rizzle Kicks you defiantly must go!

Jillian Michaels fitness DVD- If anyone has read my most recent Weight Loss Wednesday post(which is here btw... WLW post) they'll know that I'm currently loving these two DVD's and have spent the past three weeks doing the exercises on and off in an attempt to live healthier! I defiantly recommend these two if anyone who is looking for exercise DVD's!

So there we go, a mini round up of my life these past few weeks!

Twitter!


This is just a quick post to let you know I've set up a twitter account just for my blog! So follow me on there if you want to, I'll post when I've blogged etc. etc. and it'll be lovely to have somewhere to talk to some of you lovely people!


Yipee!

Weight Loss Wednesday

I am forever missing weeks with my weight loss Wednesdays posts recently! I'm terrible I know but life is crazy busy and sometimes things have to give for a little while...I'm sorrrrry! 


But aside from the apologies these past two weeks have been ultra motivated and I've been hitting goals left right and centre! I've taken up more exercise, wahoo for me, drank tonnes more water and even lost a pound! So altogether I'm super motivated now to carry on!

These past two weeks my motivation has come from realisation as to how close my holiday is; 14 weeks to go, eeek! I know it sounds like ages away but its really not! I read a post this week on instagram about how it takes about a month (If I remember correctly because I can't find the post now!) for you to notice changes in your own body, around 2 months for your family and close friends to notice changes and then 12 weeks for others to notice!  This just made me realise that I need to knuckle down and get living an even healthier lifestyle because it doesn't just happen over night! I've also purchased a very very pretty bikini for my holiday and at the moment don't feel confident to wear it but my goal is to be able to feel at least 70% confident in wearing it for my holiday! 

I'm also changing up how I 'diet', if that's what you call what I do. I've decided to cut carbs and increase exercise, both cardio and strength. I'm already enjoying Jillian Michaels 30 day shred DVD, which I've been doing on and off for about 3 weeks (As well as her Banish Fat and Boost Metabolism DVD), so I'm going to carry on doing those. I'm a huge apple product lover and always have my iphone with me and my ipad's always around when I'm at home. So I've downloaded a couple of apps to help me do some extra mini workouts and toning exercises; I've gone with an App called '7M workout' which does exactly as its name would suggest and another called 'six pack' which has loads of short set toning exercises. Plus it sends a notification to remind you to work out, which is really handy! And they're both free!

So that's what I'm going to be doing for the next 14 weeks! Well I'm going to use the next two weeks as a bit of an introduction as my mum's on holiday and wants to do it with me but as soon as she arrives home we'll be hitting the new plan hard, for 12 solid weeks before we go away! I'm super excited!!

Thanks for reading, I hope everyone's still doing well and enjoying whatever they're doing to stay healthy, leave me your links and I'll check your posts out, I love reading other peoples tips and stories!
