New Years: 2016

It's a new year and of course everyone has things they want to change. Always fitness and health is at the top. And then everyone has other little things they add for them selves. Starting with health and fitness, I have been working on this for a few years now. I know people want results right away but taking it slow and really committing to the life style change I feel is the best way for me.

Healthy Eating: I feel is easiest if you take small steps and not leaping into a huge no sugar no carb no this and not that diet. About 8 years ago I decided to cut out soda. That was it. Which I still haven't had since that day 8 years ago. I never crave it or want it anymore. Which I think helped me getting in a healthier path. Just by cutting out soda. Now I'm not saying you have to cut out soda. But find that one thing that you have a lot but you don't necessarily need to survive. Cut it out. Through these 8 years my whole life style in food is different.
I crave soups and salads. Fried foods don't appeal to me as much as they use to. Also, when I eat fried food it upsets my stomach now. Diets are also just a horrible word and I felt like diet seems short termed. If you change for your health to create a better life style choice for you. That's the best way to look at it.
Healthy Body: I am the worlds worst at moisturizing and cleaning and taking care of my face. The only thing I do best is sunblock because I'm so pale and will burn. Keeping up with my health on the outside of my body is just as important as the food I am putting in my body.
Fitness: I can't help too much because this year that is the part of my life I need to fix the most. As well as drinking 6-8 glasses of water every day. My goal is to go to the gym at least 2-3 times a week and by the end of they year to enjoy doing it. Being fit (to me) seems like a very important aspect in life to live long and healthy. I sometimes see elder people who can barely walk on their own and move slow and I don't want to end up that way. Fitness will help making me look good now but in the end the benefits pay off for when I'm 80 years old and still able to be active.

Got little things in my life I want to fix for 2016 as well: Stay positive more, stress less, travel more, enjoy the little things in life, and don't let work consume my personal life, and don't over think about spending money (do the fun things). These are almost fall into the same category. Which is work. Money, stress, and travel all go down to how work is. Lately, I have been in negative and stressed with work and it follows me into my personal life. I don't like being so negative. I know for 2016 I need to work on keeping positive even when work is horrible.

So I hope these health and fitness tips help as well as inspire any of you who couldn't think of any new years resolutions. I hope everyone had a great 2015 and an even better 2016. Make sure you check out all my social medias and my youtube channel. Subscribe there and follow my blog.

Tea Cup // Outfit Of The Day

I went to a tea room for lunch and this outfit inspired by English rose gardens and those pretty bone china floral tea cups. The back of the dress is open so I work a bralette that is a pastel pink and lace one. It went with the whole English tea room theme of the outfit and for the tea room we went to. The dress is white with pastel pink painted ross on it. I got it last year at Forever 21 and I don't think they sell this dress anymore. I really love the shape and color of the dress. I didn't want any shoes that took away from the dress so I paired this outfit with my nude flats I got at a boutique in California. The purse is by Betsy Johnson and I love wearing this with pastel outfits. It has a black bow and a pink fluff ball on the side. Gold chain and black straps. Its a fake leather with little black hearts. This has been one of my go to purses right now. Make sure you checked my previous blog post about the tea room I went to (The Twisted ...

Here is some inspiration I found on a lovely little site called Pinterest (incase you haven't heard of it). You can go to party city or even the dollar store to buy beach themed decorations for your house. Thing like beach balls, buckets, fake palm trees, pool toys, etc. Be creative!

The beach is always great for mix-matching so don't be afraid to do that with your plates and food layout. Try and find some beach themed foods, like fruits, veggies, sandwiches, anything you would pack with you or buy at t...

Florida Winter Looks

If you live in a place that doesn't really get freezing cold, like Florida, here are some cute outfit ideas. Also, I'm more into the brightly colored winter clothes so here are some options. If you are not big on the bright colors this sweater is a great way to jazz up your look. Glitter, Sparkles,  and Sequins are always a great way to show that you're fun. This is also not a very thick sweater so it's great for Florida or California since it doesn't get very cold. The sweater is also very festive for Christmas and New Years Eve. If it isn't very cold like it is now in Florida go with a thing bright colored sweater and your favorite shorts. You can pair this with a bright hand bag and your favorite flip flops. You can also wear sneakers if you'd prefer. Now if it is a little too chilly for shorts wear bright colored jeans or leg gins to keep your legs warm. This is the perfect Florida winter outfit. Now this is actually my favorite one out ...
