Look good feel great for summer

Look good and feel great..
Here's a healthy eating plan that works for me, it's a bit like the raw food eating plan.. I though I would share this with you as summer is coming up and you may want to lose a little weight also leaves your skin glowing.. The first 2 weeks will be hard if you are not used to eating like this, but I promise you will see a difference  if you stick to it !!.. Try it  for 3 weeks and let me know..

THIS WORKS FOR ME.. I'M NO DOCTOR PLEASE CONSULTANT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE STARTING ANY HEALTHY EATING PLANS OR DETOX


Breakfast

Banana‘s, Oranges, apples, Grapes, water melon, strawberry.Dried Mango  are really tasty, or dates if you have a sweet tooth like me..


Green tea or any fruit or herbal tea …lemon and Ginger. and lots of  water.


LUNCH then DINNER
Bistro Salad, sliced avocado with feta cheese and grilled chicken, I don’t eat red meat but I’m sure any grilled meat is good, or salmon with sweet chili sauce is really nice. Or tinned  tuna



Italian crispy salad and  Vegetarian Mexican Style Quarter Pound Bean Burgers. (Grilled ) great for a barbecue  Really quick and easy with feta and tomatoes, cucumber, avocado. And red onion. Sweet corn   Lots of black pepper.


Instead of Salad try boiled vegetables which ever you want!!  Boil with vegetable or chicken stock to give that extra taste for 5 Min's. Slightly crunchy healthier and tastes much nicer then over boiled.



Snacks




Snack a jacks
Large cheese ones really nice with banana.
Yogurts fat free
Dates
Rice cakes with Jam
Sesame snaps





Every weekend   just before I go to bed I drink slimmer tea  for a wash out. Be careful this stuff is really powerful!! .. DRINK LOTS OF WATER!! 


Let me know if you like me to post any  more pictures or do a video cooking any of the meals
Hope this works for you..

THIS WORKS FOR ME.. I'M NO DOCTOR PLEASE CONSULTANT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE STARTING ANY HEALTHY EATING PLANS OR DETOX.

Dinner
My home made jerk chicken with homemade coleslaw with beef tomatoes, avocado and sweetcorn, lots of black peeper.. yummy!!

Escada Magnetism -A real girlie scent great for spring
My all time favorite perfume its the best smell in world,  It's a sweet  sexy perfume.I would describe the smell as a mixture of candy floss a hint of vanilla and lavender. ummmm.
Smells gorgeous all day long .. 
 (I get so many compliments when wearing this)


 

  

Victoria Secret - coconut and passion- sensuous scent ,such a nice fresh smell,  it's got that hint of vanilla with a twist of coconut. mist on after your bath or shower. wished they bring Victoria Secrets to the u.k 

 (leaves a trail of passion where ever you go) :)

 





So ? Sinful-  If you are on a budget check this one out ,I mean this is really cheap!! Good to keep in your handbag for emergencies,smells good for the price, a scent with a hint of musk and vanilla, leaves everyone guessing what your sexy new scent is.. (Shhh.. you dont have to tell them)

Eaten by Fish

 I took a trip down to Camden town. Camden town is one of London many popular open aired and indoor  market stalls, it has lots of alternative retro clothes, vintage stores, on trend fashion shops, jewellery stores, food from all over the world and there is so much more to see. Camden town is a  great place full of diversity.
I decided to venture out and try the fish pedicure I feel a little squeamish about the whole thing but excited at the same time  can't wait to see what it's all about . After about an hour wondering around looking for the place I eventually came across the small shop front. Which was good as I was just about to chicken out.






Wonga fish spa is an open planned shop with maybe 8 large fish tanks umm fish bowls, pedicure bowl, fish pedicure bowl not really sure what to called them but I'm sure you get the idea. I curiously looked at these small fish swimming around looking  for their next feed. Which was gonna be me..now slightly peeing my pants lol... 














I  was handed a warm wet towel to wipe my feet down before I could put my feet in. I took a deep breath as I plunge one of my foot into the tank, I froze as I saw all these excited looking fish swarm to my foot. Oh god !!


A while after the  friendly shop assistant came up and said it does work better if you put 2 feet in.  I bravely put my other foot in and watched them scatter around my other foot.  


It was quite relaxing after you forget you have a load of fish eating and nibble your dead skin slightly feels like  mini bubbles. 15 Min's later it was time take my feet out. To my surprise my feet  definitely felt softer and smoother. 
























  The fish: toothless Garra rufa fish Originally from southern Turkey and northern Syria, for centuries Garra Rufa, have been known for treating skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema and for there exfoliating abilities to softening and cleansing the skin.

Happy Birthday big sis !!



Hi guys hope you well. Hope you all had a fab start to the new year .
Today its my birthday I won't tell my age but I'm in me earlier 30's :( although I still feel 18..
  I woke up and felt quite sad one because it's its freezing cold and grey,  ( note to myself ,I so want to immigrate to a hot country very SOON!!)


 
  Second being that It is my sister's birthday today as well we are not twins she is 7 years older then me. but we haven't spoken to each other for maybe the last 3 years.  .We were quite close until 2007 when my nephew  suddenly died for cutting his finger. "Short story he cut his finger went to hospital to stitch the cut and died, strange uh"..    Anyway maybe a year after we then drifted apart.


I do have a tendency to  lock people out and deal with situations on my own  and that's maybe the reasons why we are no longer close . I really  hope she knows that I do still care. It's just really hard to look at her to see the hurt that she is going though.  and of course she a resembles my nephew . We have big almond shape eyes in our family  I can read my sister though her eyes when she smiles she doesn't smile though her eyes and that freaking hurts..

She is an amazing beautiful successful business women She is a pied piper and and has this way about her that she attracts people. she kind and caring and very inspirational.
Anyway all I really want to say is have a FAB BIRTHDAY BIG SIS!! hope you get all the things you desires and I hope you know that I may not always be around but I'm always here. Love you loads.. xx

Is anyone else going though the same situation?  would love to hear your stories..

Ive been inspired by the animal print

  Leopard print clothing is a fashion trend that has steadily growing though out the years. It now includes other animal skins, for example, zebra, cheetah, jaguar, cow, giraffe and tiger. 
I wasn't a greatest fan  of the animal prints. it always reminded me to quite trashy and only certain types of women would wear these prints. But it has now evolved  into a must wear part of clothing.


Over the years I have defiantly become more experimental with my fashion style and I have found a way just to add a spot of animal print to my wardrobe..
 
Bracelets- Primark and New look

Zebra Print make up bag-Primark
 
Giraffe print Cardigan- H&M
Cheetah print Bag -Primark

half moon design

Hi so i've been inspired to do a nail design tutorial. on the half moon design.
 It all started in the 1920 women would spend so much time on your nails which meant you were of a higher class. As the name reveals a half moon manicure is a totally painted nail with a tiny half-moon left bare or colored lightly at the base of every fingernail.

-

Many celebrities seem to have great pleasure in wearing the half moon nails, Dita von Teese is only one of them. She seems to have a fatal attraction for it, never leaving the house without a polished half-moon manicure. 



We've made it more current by elongating the half-moon and making the colours more graphic in contrast


Here I have done the half moon with an extra  twist















- The  dark coloured nail polish ( Sapphire in the snow by OPI )

   - The  lighter  colour  ( Done out in Decco )
      (Purple Nail Art Stars) 


Remember to always use a good base coat and top coat to seal in the polish.


watch the video below ;to see how its been done..

IS IT ALL TURE WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT E.L.F


This morning I got my big brown box box full of goodies really impress as i ordered my suff on thursday night and received my stuff on today saturday. So i thought I try  this product that everyone seems to be raving about, I was quite shock with regards to the prices. very reasonable and the selections of the colours are not to bad at all. although would of like to seen more bright bold colours.

What e.l.f says ;
 This color-lock formula with chip resistant shield gives long lasting nail color with high shine. The aerodynamic bristle design glides color on flawlessly, while the quick dry formula gives perfect application every time. Key nutrients give nails that natural shine, infused with Vitamin E for stronger, healthier nails.

Now I wouldn't say this is the best product on the market, but I do think it is worth investing in a few polishes from them as the polishes are only £1.50 yep £1.50!! that's all and the postage and package  is only £2.95 , also whats  good is that these polishes   have no nasties in them, The polishes are  Toluene free and formaldehyde free. great if anyone has any allergic reactions to nail polish, but always read the polish label before hand . The colours are OK and some of the polishes that are on the website don't quite look the same when you get them. but overall quite happy with what I got.



1562 innocent.opaque

I used three coats, doesn't look that great in the bottle but I do really like this colour, really natural looking can be worn with everything ..looks good on short or long nails goes with all skin tones..




1511 Medium Red.
  used three coats the nail polish brush isn't that great on this one  so made it hard to paint neat, I liked how it looked  on the website this colour look more deep, not a fan of this colour but I'm not that keen on on reds on me anyway,




                                                                                    














                                                           1540 Chocolate
                   I do like this colour rich chocolate nice for Autumn/winter colour I uses three coats.

                                                             1560 Desert haze. opaque
 love this colour its a beige/slightly Grey colour. look great on short nails and all skin tone . If you like 1562 innocent.opaque you will love this colour too. used three coats .


                                                         1544 Mod Mauve
Really disappointed with this colour, does not look like the same colour on the website, completely different.. not keen on it at all.. used three coats...


                                                                   1515 Plum
   Again doesn't look like the same colour that shows on the website. as on the website it looks more purple..it does have a slight mauve hint and very deep almost black in colour . Although I do like this colour and will defiantly rock this colour in the winter. 

e.l.f just doesn't do nail polishes they have a whole range of  beauty product and make up too. 
Let me know what you think
