Eat Clean Stay Healthy....

Hi Lovelies :) Hope you are all having a lovely bank weekend!! The last couple of weeks i have been non stop into trying get more healthy and in shape. Apparently yesterday was the day that people start wanting that bikini ready body!! (I do!!) I have been reading womens health magazine online and it really made me think about getting back into being more healthy and now is the perfect time to change. I am a very fussy eater i like good plain food and i have a very sweet tooth. 

 

I am a sucker for italian food a good old pizza, pasta you name it im there. Before trying to change my diet i assessed what i actually eat in a normal week of course it will change as i dont have a set meal plan. I actually realised that majority of my food is bad carbs. So ive been gradually changing my meals with a more healthy approach making sure i get the all important 5 a day or near enough in my diet and swapping things for a more healthy approach. This is not a diet that i am doing just more of a lifestyle change that suits me and makes me happy. 

 

The next thing i have been doing is exercising. I have been exercising 3-5 times each week and upping my protein intake as this helps muscles to recover and also doesnt make you ache as much the next day. At least two of the days i do intense workout and then the other days a more gentle approach. Circuit training, running, swimming, pilates, full body workout.... Also Blogilates & Toneitupcom on youtube have been fab workouts to do at home :) .... these have all been what i have been doing to work out. I have also noticed a huge difference in my emotions and also headaches. I used to have a headache frequently and now i can go days without one and after a workout i feel fab!! The results that i want is juts to tone up and feel better about myself so hopefully this change will benefit me and my body. 

 

 

Bring on a healthier me!! 

Do you workout or have any healthy recipes you could share? :)

 

 

Primark Haul.....

Primark have some gorgeous spring clothes and of course its nice to get a few bits to add to the collection of clothes i already have. So this may be a bit of a long post. (You have been warned)! The photos dont do the clothes much justice so im hoping to do a few OOTDs soon :) So lets gets started....

 I brought this bag for £9.00 and i love the heart detailing and the cute little studs. I thought the white colour is very versatile so will go with alot of things. I also liked that its a good size and can fit the necessities :)

These cute little shorts i love already. I paid £3.00 for them which i think is pretty good bargain. I could imagine wearing them on holiday or in the garden when it gets abit warmer. I love the print on them a gorgeous burgundy polka dot. They fit quite snug on me and arent too baggy or tight just right!!

These dark blue joggers were brought for £5.00 again a bargain for lounging around in. Ive been wanting a couple of pairs to just wear around the house in on lazy days so these are perfect. They are rolled cuff at the end and fit really comfortably. 

 These 3 peplum tops above were £4.00 each in black, pink and mint green. They are sheer so a little top underneath is needed. But they are very floaty and loose so will be ideal for when the weather  is warmer. Or layering up which i think il do with a little statement necklace. 

 This mint green dress for £5.00 is one of my fave picks that i brought. Its a sort of lace style at the top then a very floaty bottom with a drawstring type around the middle. I think this is perfect for spring with a tan belt. Looking forward to wearing this little beauty. They also have a dark blue one. 

 These joggers were £7.00 and are the skinny version. Again another pair for lounging in the house in. They are so comfy :)

 This dark blue and white dress is perfect. Its a midi dress and it fits just right on me. Ive wanted a dress for spring/summer thats lightweight and not clingy. At £10 i couldnt resist. 

 Again these little shorts were £3.00. If you cant tell i love leopard print so these had to be mine :) 

This coral/pinky top for £6.00 is a nice simple top to brighten up my wardrobe and so simple for everyday. 

I brought this pink racerback type vest for £2.50 and il wear this with a little bandeau crop top underneath and will be perfect for summer. 

So that was what i brought in Primark. Hope you liked seeing what i brought :)

Todays nails i have gone for a gorgeous spring/summer colour called 'orange soda' from 17. This colour just makes me think of the warm weather so i needed this on my nails to remind me that the summer months need to hurry up!!

 

What are your fave colours to get you in the mood for spring/summer? :)
