My Workout | The Count Down To Summer

Hello my lovelies,

I haven’t posted in a few weeks for a few reasons. The first was that I was literally out of ideas and really didn’t want to post a super boring and useless post. The second is that recently I’ve been super busy with revision and exams so really have not found the time to but finally I had a little light bulb moment.

As were in spring right now the weather is getting warmer and I thought it was time to start getting fit again and loose the extra pounds I gained over the winter! I love food and worship Nutella but it was time to STOP and start my Journey to my summer body.

This post is going to be part of a series on what I’ve been doing to achieve my goal – work out, diet/meal plan, timetable, outfits and other stuff!

I’m not an expert in the matter and do not mean to sound like I am but this is that I do to stay fit and get into shape.

My Workout-

20 min jog

10 min walk

100 star jumps

100 crunches

100 squats

50 hip bridges

30 jump lunges

25 leg raises

25 side leg raises

25 fire hydrants

25 donkey kicks

20 high knees
20 push ups

1 min plank

Notes-

Take regular water breaks
Stretch before and after

If in need take a break

Don’t push yourself

Start of easier or harder depending on how you feel comfortable

Hope you liked this post and I’m looking forward to the next posts!

Till next time

Best and Worst Mascaras

Hello my lovelies,

Recently I’m almost on the verge of finishing a bunch of my beauty products so I thought I’d share my best and worst mascaras.

My best mascaras are:

1.     L’Oreal Volume Million Lashes – it really does create clumpless voluminous lashes. It stays on without flaking for the whole day and I never end up having panda eyes. 4.5/5

2.     Covergirl lash blast volume- I’m in love with this mascara it lengthens like crazy as well as add a ‘blast’ of volume. I were this alone and it already makes a huge difference to my lashes but in combination to the million mascara my lashes become so big and almost look like false lashes. 5/5

3.     Rimmel Scandal eyes flex - As you can probably tell I love mascaras  that create volume and this is definitely one that creates loads. 4/5

4.     Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes- this is the only high-end mascara that I actually like. It creates subtle length and volume with a winged effect. I normally use this if I’m going for a really natural look. 3.7/5

My worst mascaras are:

1.     Maybelline Mega Plush Volume Express waterproof – I feel weird    about this mascara as all my friends that used it are completely in love with it but I never got that feeling. I simply feel like it applies loads of product on to my lashes without doing anything. When I apply water   the lashes stick together and become spidery. 1.9/5

2.      Maybelline Great Lash in Big- I’ve heard that the normal brush version of this works extremely well but the big version doesn’t do anything   big. It lifts my lashes the tiniest big and barely adds any length.  2/5

3.     Wet n Wild Mega Length- this mascara creates great length it makes it seem as if I have 5 lashes.  However the brush is so thing that its perfect for bottom lashes. 2.1/5

4.     Kiko Sparkle Lashes- this top coat mascara clumps the lashes together leaving sticky lashes… not pretty. 1/5

Till next time

Victoria's View | The Jelly Shoe

Hello my lovelies,

There are so many trends going on at the moment but today I’m going to be talking about the jelly shoe. The first and last time I wore jelly shoes was the summer I was 6 while I was at the beach, its sole purpose was so I could walk on the rocks without getting hurt. The majority of my friends at the time had a pair and though they were the shiz. Recently they’ve made a come back but now there no longer for 6 year old.

I loathe jelly shoes and think they look horrible on most people. There are very few exceptions to who can pull them off.  The only way I can like them, to a certain extent of the word like, is if they the shoe is black and paired with black socks, preferably frilly or white and paired white socks, also preferably frilly.

Kylie Jenner is a celeb who I can tell is loving the trend , I’ve seen her sporting this trend and she stuck to the black and white most of the time.

Favourite Fashion Apps

Hello my lovelies,

Just like the majority of the population, I own a mobile phone. I have my iphone in my hand 24/7 and I’m always on the same apps. This blog is going to be about my favourite fashion apps.

In no specific order…

1.Instagram- I’m sure you all know about Instagram but if you don’t then it’s basically a social media app where you can share photos with your followers and like and comment on pictures of people you follow. A lot of celebrities and fashion icons use it so I love using it to get inspiration for my outfits.

My favourite fashion and beauty accounts are…

@brandymelvilleeu

@bestylist

@zozeebo  (zoella)

2. We Heart It- I love this app, it has so many cute pictures to just scroll down through, heart and save. This inspires me on a daily basis to switch up my look, pair together items I wouldn’t usually put together and it has the best quote pictures.

3. The Hunt- the hunt is an app that allows you to upload cute pictures of any item you want to know where to get. You can also post a bunch of other 

things that you would like to know like what films to watch on Netflix or what to pair with a certain top. You can even just search up items or follow searches so you can then find amazing things.

These are my favourite fashion apps. You should check them out, I’m sure you would all love them.

Till next time
