Fashion in the Gym...

I think Khoé Kardashian has definitely inspired us to hit the gym more after ‘that’ Complex cover. Fitness seems to have blown up around us, Facebook is full of fitness videos and tips, and our Instagram pages are full of pictures of crushed egg and avocado on toast.

So obviously if we’re going to the gym more we’ll need some super cute outfits to help us along, because I know personally if I feel like I look good, then I’ll work harder and go more. So here are a few lovely, practical and affordable pieces for your upcoming workouts.

Inexpensive V-day ideas <3

A lot of people find Valentine's Day a bit too much, it's busy and expensive, and there's a whole lot of pressure.. Not to mention it promotes an idea that we can only be romantic on one day of the year.

But sometimes it is nice to have an occasion to celebrate, especially when everyone has Christmas/winter blues. My partner and I aren't very openly romantic. There are no PDAs, not a lot of hand holding, that's something we do when we're alone, like a secret (apart from now it's not so secret). But that doesn't mean we don't like to let each other know how much the other is appreciated.

So I'm going to suggest a few Vday ideas that don't cost the earth and are subtly romantic- unless you and your partner are the PDA romantic type, and in that case go crazy!

1. In my opinion and experience hand made cards/gifts are the best.

Last year Dan made me these. I am a huuuuuuge Harry Potter geek, so he made me my very own marauders map and a note that Dumbledore gives Harry in the first book, just personalised.

It was the most amazing present and I appreciated it even more because I know how long he must have spent making it. (And clever him, it didn't cost a penny!)

2. You don't have to break the bank.

 

There is nothing wrong with treating your significant other to an inexpensive dinner, a bit of chocolate and a few glasses of wine, as long as you're together and happy. That's the whole point right? 

3. It's hard for couples who still live at home to get private time together. Why not book a standard hotel room for the night? 

Premier Inn boasts that it has rooms from £35 per night. If all you want for Valentine's is a bit of privacy with your love, then it's perfect. 

6. Finally, I say dress up! No matter what you do or where you go (even if you're just cooking each other dinner) it will feel way more romantic and celebratory if you both make an effort.

I hope you all enjoy yourselves! Let me know how your dates go! (And if you're single, have a date with your mates! They are your first love. And love is love after all, and that is what Vday is about!) 

Spread the peace and love this weekend ✌️

 

Baby Its Cold Outside!

I haven't written anything in a while and I'm feeling like I need to rant on about clothes for around 10 minutes, so here we are! 

Today's post is short and sweet and it is dedicated to the cold winds fast approaching our small isle... First up is this absolutely stunning faux fur coat from Asos. 

It is £90 and something that I have been drooling over for sooooooo long! 

I first wanted a long fur coat when I saw Carrie's one all those years ago... But I'm just not into real fur. 

This isn't the only faux fur Asos are parading this winter, from dyed beauties to subtle stunners, there will most deffo be a fur for everybody. 

This gorgeous jacket is down to £68 from £199

This Beaut comes in red or cream and is a perfectly affordable £59.50

And if a whole fur coat isn't for you why not check out these.

£110

£100

£66.50

So whatever your style, head to Asos make sure you wrap up with a delightful faux fur this winter!

Peace and love xx ✌️
