My living room dream

I have been loving the idea of having a 60's style home. We are renting at the moment so obviously we can't do much with our flat but it doesn't stop me from dreaming and thinking about our own place. I was looking at different styles of home decor and came across so much beautiful furniture. I like the combination of grey, green and orange in a living room - these colours instantly give me a countrysidey feeling. 

I picked out a drawer and a few 'Danish' style couches, a couple of pillows (which I like so much) and a bonsai tree. I love plants but I would prefer something cute and small, rather than big palmy-type plants. The whole set has a vintage vibe but is still quite modern and minimalistic. 

I'm a clean freak. I don't like wearing shoes inside, I can't stand dusty furniture, I love clean floors and I change my bedding every two weeks (sometimes even more often). This style of furniture (long legs, wide open space underneath) would help me to keep my house clean and tidy. It would be so much easier to move the furniture and spot the dust or unwanted visitors - spiders, etc.

    I'm like you, I change my sheets weekly and I can't stand mess of any kind on the house, which is difficult at the moment as my housemate is quite untidy. I love the style of the chairs and sofa that you included.

    I love your choice of furniture there. I do feel your pain about not being able to do much in a rented home, it sucks!

    Haha, I love the two cushions!
    I really like the pieces that you picked out - their minimalist and clean style give them quite a Scandinavian vibe :)

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...

The Body Shop Manchester Arndale Bloggers Event

I've been blogging for almost two years now but I'd still consider myself a newbie in the blogging world. On Thursday I had the chance to go to my first bloggers event at The Body Shop in Manchester to celebrate the release of an amazing new range on the 5th of May, including new bronzing items and a couple of vitamin C products! I was wearing my butterfly bow-tie brooch to the event and styled it with a white short sleeved shirt. It was a closed door event, so it was a good opportunity to browse all of the products and explore the new ones thoroughly! The event started at 8pm and I was one of the first ones to arrive. We were welcomed with milkshakes, fruit cocktails and lemonade. I went for water - shy and modest! There was also a white chocolate fountain and strawberries we had the chance to enjoy. The event was carried out by Fiona - she is a skin expert at the Manchester store. Everyone was able to get personal skin consult...

Lilla Rose Flexi Clips

  Today I want to talk a bit about my hair and my recent purchase from a company called Lilla Rose . Lilla Rose is a unique hair and jewellery accessory company from the US. They have many different hair items but I was more interested in their beautiful and well-known Flexi Clip. I got myself two of these - Autumn's Delight in size small and Festive Leaf in extra small. Before ordering I made sure of which size would fit best for my flat and thin hair.       Both of my Flexi Clips look stunning. The beaded wire is quite bendable but strong, the sliding pin is adjustable and they feel high-quality. I chose mine in a copper/rust shade but there are also silver and gold shades and so many different styles and colours available. As I recently cut my long hair short, I don't have many options with styling. I usually just wear my hair in a ponytail or a half ponytail. Autumn's Delight fits all my hair between the clip and Festive Leaf is perfect for a smal...
