breakfast

I'm not a huge breakfast fan, so when it comes to breakfast finding tasty and healthy foods is always hard.   After hours and hours of searching through pinterest, I finally found my top four healthy breakfast foods that I like to eat, and decided to share them with you.


+ waffles with fruit
+ eggs with toast
+ oatmeal with cinnamon
+ yogurt with granola and fruit

see you tomorrow!

Yay!  Not only is it Friday, but it is my first friday fun post!  I will be sharing just a little bit about my week, things going on, and what's to come!



Did you see my post on starting a winter routine?


1. Have you read Mackenzie Horan's sweet story on how she met her fiancé?

2. I stumbled upon a picture on Pinterest, and could not resist clicking on the link.  Needless to say there were more pictures! My favorite pictures were numbers 5,7, and 10.
  I mean how could not love puppies and lacrosse?!

3. Yes, Fuller House has been confirmed, but wait there's more, Lauren Graham tweeted that Gilmore Girls will be coming back to Stars Hallow!! Thank you for Netflix!!

4. How well do you know The Parent Trap? (one of my all time favorites)
Take the buzzfeed quiz here!

4. Kayla Itsines, a fitness trainer has one of the most amazing blogs, it's full of inspiration, workouts, and healthy foods to eat, along with tips that are really helpful!

what to bring when flying


Across the Pond is a featured post every Thursday, about the travel and lifestyle of London written by my good friend.  I'm so excited to announce this is the first week of Across the Pond! Today's post in about what to wear and bring when flying, so welcome aboard!

what to wear

+ leggings- wear something that looks good, but feels like sweatpants

+ subtle t-shirt- bring a comfy shirt that looks and feels good

+ cashmere pullover- again, wear something that looks good, but feels like a sweatshirt


+ cashmere scarf- you want to have a scarf that doubles as a blanket

+ glasses- on the plane, especially long flights your contacts will get dry

+ comfortable shoes- you never know how long you'll be waiting for your luggage to turn up or when your airbnb turns into a 5 story walk-up, bring nice shoes in case your luggage is lost- clothes are easy to replace but shoes not so much



what to bring in your carry on

+ dooney and bourke flat zip pouch
(holds my id cards, passport and money)
I wear it under my coat at all times.
+ socks
(ear buds will hurt your ears)
+ glasses
(contacts will get dry)
+ charger or adapter
(can be a purse and carry on)
+ neutral sweatshirt
(perfect for make up, hair ties, toiletries, ext.)

and

see you tomorrow!

If you saw yesterday's post, filled with tips on how to start a workout routine during the winter, you would know it's hard. Do you know what's harder than that?  Finding something to wear with it!  This definitely is my go to workout outfit, and you can shop it below!








nike shoes // patagonia pullover // under armour socks // champion leggings

note: the nike shoes are unfortunately only available in pink online, stores do carry the teal.  the patagonia pullover design and colors have changed, and the champion leggings have also changed.

starting a winter rountine

I know, it's winter, netfix is always on, and your bed is a lot more comfortable, than getting a good workout in.  I am one to say that starting a workout routine especially during the winter is hard, even with the commitment.  I wrote five ways to help you stick with it.

+ workout with someone
Not only is working out with someone a lot more fun, but it makes you stay committed. Even make it more fun and make a game or competition out of it!

+ decide morning or night
Make a plan either to workout in the morning or at night.  Don't change it because it could mess up your schedule.  Also, waking up early and working out will make you feel fresh all day long.

+ accommodate your diet
Staying fit is just a little part of being healthy.  Staying healthy is 80% eating well and 20% exercising.  Be sure to stay hydrated with water also!

+ add it to your calendar
If you made plans to workout, stick to them! Do not hit the snooze button at five in the morning, wake up, if there's a day where you could head to a party or workout, workout.

+ pain now, pleasure later
Believe me, working hard now and enjoying it later is the way to go!


p.s. tomorrow check out the blog to shop this outfit!

 see you tomorrow!

coach bag

If you are like or me you have a million different things in your cosmetic bag, from hair ties and bobby pins to nail filers and a tooth brush. I did a post a little while back on three of my favorite cosmetic bags, but this is definitely my all time favorite that I have (so far)! Coach is known for having style and great quality items, this bag really sets the bar high.






see you tomorrow!
