Life Lately #3


Morning Guys!

This is my 3rd installment of the 'Life Lately' post which seems to have become a regular feature on the blog.

So I guess you all want to know what I've been up to in the past month or so? I'll take that as a yes seen as that's why you're here!

This month has been all about figuring out a gym routine that works, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and really about stepping everything up a gear when it comes to my lifestyle. I've got some products that have recently appeared in my snacking staples - Alpro Desserts. These little Dessert Pots are amazing, if you've got a sweet tooth like me and constantly crave chocolate these are a fantastic option. They're Dairy Free and they aren't too bad for you either. You guys already know how much I love Alpro products so I wont harp on about them too much (for the time being!).

This month has been full of adventure, I've been on lots of long walks to forests and parks, celebrated some birthdays and also went to the Seaside! My dad, Biscuit and I recently took a day out in Scarborough. With me having never really been to the seaside, I found it so much fun. We did the cliche old thing and had fish and chips by the sea and also had Ice Cream - I went for Coconut and it was incredible. Biscuit swam in the sea for the first time and absolutely loved it.

 Kyle finished University for the summer this month as well so it's great knowing that I get to spend the summer with him (when we both aren't working).

I'm really enjoying doing this little feature on my blog because I get to reflect on what I've done throughout the month and it kinda reminds me that my life isn't as boring as I think it is!

Anyways back to what you're all here for - the little bites of what I've loving this month and all that jazz...

Sooo this is what life has been all about lately...

Focusing on - Getting the perfect monochrome summer wardrobe (Least I have my priorities right hey!)
Trying - I'm trying to keep a gym routine going and only eating at certain times of the day.
Obsessed with - I'm obsessed with salad at the moment, salad topped with the Pizza Express House Dressing. Yummy!
Been to - The seaside!
Craving - Nothing at present, makes a change...
Looking Forward to - I'm looking forward to lots of things at the moment - going to Stockholm is probably number 1 on my list (only 3 weeks away now eeek!). I'm also looking forward to going to my Aunties wedding this week and finally getting my hair done!
Dreaming About - Driving and getting my little office space sorted - next month hopefully both of these will be full swing in action.
Reflecting On - How I should start living in the moment and maybe not think about uploading something to Instagram in real time and just wait til afterwards. Sometimes I think we get caught up in this artificial world and whether it really all matters? I'll not babble on anymore though, maybe that's for another post!
Currently Wanting to - Go shopping and then grab a Boost Juice.
Reading - Nothing much to report this month guys, I'll be honest I haven't read much apart from other blogs.
Addicted to - Well again its got to be Orange Is The New Black as series 2 has just come out!

What have you been up to lately? Comment below I'd love to hear!

Life Lately

Hello lovelies!

So where the heck have I been and what have I been doing may you ask?

Well if I'm honest I've been really busy just lately - with work, switching jobs etc. If I'm totally honest my spark had just gone for a while and I didn't really feel like blogging. I've been reading other peoples blogs religiously every day but have in turn ended up neglecting my own.  I supposed however this time for me to think has given me more of a chance to reflect on what my blog is really all about and the direction I want it to move onto.

Soooo for whoever is bothered about what I've been doing, life lately has been all about:

Focusing on - Saving money & getting fit
Trying- Alpro products and smoothies
Obsessed with - Pinterest boards for inspo
Been to - Edinburgh, Newcastle & Leeds
Craving - a holiday
Looking forward to - going on holiday! (Hopefully Venice)
Dreaming about - having a mini cooper or fiat 500
Reflecting on - how I want this blog to be more of a lifestyle blog than fashion
Currently wanting to - eat my M&S salad for lunch :(
Reading - Wolf of Wall Street
Addicted to - Breaking Bad (on the last season now)

Here is some of my best moments of 2014 so far below, along with the odd random snaps! :)

Time to ditch the Scousebrows?













 I've done it, we've all done it, some people are still doing it. Drawing our eyebrows on has become a huge thing in the past year or so but is it time to ditch that look?

I originally started drawing my eyebrows on about 3 years ago purely because I'm naturally fair haired and then it just turned into a habit. It wasn't until about 4 months ago I decided enough is enough. Everybody has seemed to have joined the hype and if I'm honest they're are some horrendous brows walking the streets. I'll be the first to admit I've done it in the past but since I've stopped I know notice how ridiculous they look .(Sorry if I offend anyone.)

I now go and get my eyebrows tinted every month and kinda opt for the Kimmy K sort of look. Its more natural, more classy and less hassle in a morning. If you pencil in your eyebrows, you'll know that if you're having a bad eyebrow day, it will feel like you're having a bad life.

What do you all think? Am I being completely ridiculous here or do you agree?
Let me know! xo
