Work out gear !
Hey guys! and girls...
Here is my workout gear that I wear whenever I hit up the gym! Aka every day except Thursdays and Sundays ! I do weight training and I was always very scared to try this myself but I would never go back and change anything because I absolutely love it!
Personally these bras work best for me. The straps never dig into my skin and they have just the right about of support for weight training, for other higher endurance exercises I probably would not recommend these ones. These are all by lululemon, I also have one that's by Champion that has a bit more support for the days I do more cardio.
For tops I either go for a built in bra type or just a loose tee-shirt or tank-top over top of one of my sports bras.I usually go for bright and fun colors and shirts with fun things on them because I enjoy my time at the gym and I never take it too seriously (only some times) ;).
These are my cropped bottoms , the neon orange ones are from lululemon and just make everyone in my gym smile because they look so crazy! The ones on the right of them are from Nike and I love that the band around the waist goes down and you can see the "Just do it." on the back. The other pair are again from lululemon and come passed my knee down my calves just a bit. They are super comfortable and have many secret zippered compartments.
For longer pants I really go for lululemon brand because of the way that they fit my body. Especially if you bend over and don't want any one seeing through leggings ! No one is going to see through these so you can workout without worrying about that !The first ones are meant for running or jogging because they are like "slushy" material , they have zipped pockets at the front and are tight fitting from thigh down which is nice. The pair in the middle are your average pair of lululemon pant, they have a low rise band at the top and are straight legged. The last pair have a cute purple band at the top, they aren't as tight as the other two and have zippered pockets at the front and one secretly in the back.
I really like wearing this lululemon hoodie when I am doing a legs day so that when I do body squats with the bar it doesn't irritate my skin around my neck. It is really comfortable when you don't feel like wearing anything revealing but still gives you a nice shape. The shirt beside it is really amazing! The part with the pattern fits well like a sports bra and then the bottom white mesh part is really lightweight and kinda see-through. And on one of the sides there is a small string with a metal clasp to make it more fitting if you wanted to.
I have already lost so many pairs of gloves! I really like my Nike ones and prefer them if I am going to be using heavier weights just because I am used to them over my new Go Fit ones.When I first started training I didn't need gloves because I wasn't taking weights that where that heavy but now my skin tears and calluses start to form if I forget them for a day!
For shoes I have these Nikes as well as another pair that I keep at my boyfriends.

Lush haul!
Lush always brightens up my day! Here is what I picked up recently! I am
kinda sad that they didn't have their Easter collection out yet but I
hope it comes out soon! HA! Right as I go onto the site they have it up for online shopping :D
I really liked the toner tabs I got last time so I picked up another rosebud one and decided to try out the tea tree ones this time.
BATH BOMBS!
I am not sure if this is space girl , I want to say no but then I don't know what it is called ! (help?) Anyways is smells really nice and fresh. There are some glitters on top and I am quite curious as to how my bath is going to look after I drop this guy into it!
Ickle Baby Bot bath bomb
This I think is meant for kids but I really want to try it before getting into bed because it has lavender and chamomile in it!
Butterball
This is nice and vanilla smelling ! I got this mainly because my skin is getting fed up with the weather and is getting really dry! It is supposed to moisturize and sooth irritated dry skin so I am hoping for the best!
The Honeymooner (Gift from BF) Massage bar
This smells amazing ! Melts into your skin and is so good to use for massages from or to your special someone.
Two samples of body creams (Dream Cream and Coco lotion)
I have never purchased a body cream yet or really tried them out so I am excited to give these a try!
Ocean Salt cleanser
I've heard so much good things about this guy so I finally gave it and got a pot! The texture is really different and the smell is of course amazing!

Top 5 foundations
Let's talk about foundations. Here are my top five all time favorites that I can always turn to and not have to worry about. Two are darker shades that match me better during the summer which are the Fit me liquid foundation from Maybelline and Nars,
Right now I am using the Fit me foundation stick almost every day and it kinda gives the effect a BB cream would just without being all liquidy. I mentioned this in more detail in a previous post so I won't go any more into it now.
My other Fit me product is great for the summer. The color selection for this collection is amazing and it also matched up a blush, concealer and a powder in the same shade range. Leaves your skin dewy and natural , no cake looking grossness either!
Nars sheer glow was my first ever high end foundation, I am the shade Fiji and I got it also for when my skin is a tad more tanned. The glow it gives my skin is superbe. I also really like the smell of this, I don't know why!
I sometimes mix my two Revlon foundations together or use them separately depending on my skin.
I cannot rank them in any sort of order because I like them all for different reasons and different seasons ! The only thing is that my photo ready is the only one with a pump, so everything other than this one and the stick make such a mess if I am not careful which is rare.

Emilia Clark a.k.a Khaleesi
I am a full time lover of Game of Thrones and my favorite story line to follow is of the dragon lady herself Kahaleesi. I had never heard of Emilia Clark until her casting into this show and surprise! She is not a blond in real life! Here are some of her outfits that I love and just all around love for Emilia!
Photo cred: Just Jared
Her style is so simple and I love how she pairs a lot of her outfits with the same leather jacket.

She still keeps it simple at events but its not simple in a bad way at all, she is naturally suited for these events therefore not much is needed in terms of getting "Glamed up".
This makes it hard to believe that she is 26 , when I first saw her on the show I thought she was much younger. Such a beautiful woman and great actress!
