What I'm up to Saturday!

Hey Lovelies, what have you all been up to this week?
I've been...


READING
I haven't done much running for over a year and I'm determined to get back into it (I mentioned in my New Year Resolution post I'd like to do a run for charity) so I've been reading some running blogs, which led me to these lovely blogs...

 Toronto Runner - I love her blog she shares her progress and anything she learns about running (and cute outfits too)

Fizzy Peaches - she is running a half marathon for Cystic Fibrosis tomorrow and has used her fab blog to update us on her training!
GOOD LUCK LYNDSAY!!!

 
LISTENING
Ladies, he's bringing sexy back...




LOVING
Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum - Gel Foundation

My sister bought this and didn't like it so I thought I'd give it a try and well I love it!

The packaging is nice for a high street foundation, a slim glass bottle with an easy to use pump application.


It can feel a little tacky on the skin when first applied but once it sets it feels like you have no
foundation on at all, you're skin can breathe.


 
It's a light coverage which I always go for and the colour has a yellow tone that works well with my colouring.

It smells really nice.

It claims to last 16hrs, I've not had any reason to wear make-up for that long, however I was still happy with it after 6-8 hours.


**Notes:
My skin has been in good condition while I've been using it so I'm not sure how it will work when I have dry patches or redness.

I do not wear foundation everyday, 1-2 days per week on average.

....Also loving
I've been to the cinema twice this week (excessive but I love movies) and have become obsessed with the Tango Ice Blast drinks you get there, however my calorie counting, work colleague informed me there are 257 calories in a regular serving
:(



NOT LOVING
How quickly the weeks are passing, 2013 slow the heck down!!!

 
WISHING
I hadn't given up chocolate for lent!!!
Only 3 days in and craving is an understatement...only 43 sleeps to go! Ha

 
THINKING
5 years, wow!
I'm not big on Valentine Day but its also a dating anniversary for my boyfriend and I. This year was 5 years together, quickest 5 years ever!!!!


FEELING
Happy! Just because.



WEIGHING
Weigh-in, Tuesday (12th Feb)

-1lb • Another 1lb off this week, I know it's not much but I'm totally happy with that!

Excercise:
3 Metafit classes (High Intensity Interval Training)
1 circuits class (cardio, toning and weight training)

I still need to work on my sweet tooth and must drink more water.

 
 
WANTING
Although it is still cold here we had some blue skies and sunshine yesterday, having to wear sunglasses to drive made it feel like it was summer.
I'm on the lookout for some nice sunglasses for the summer, I really like these blue mirrored aviators by Victoria Beckham

Unfortunately my sunglasses budget is significantly lower than £305 these days as any expensive ones I've had ended up lost or squashed by my butt!


WEARING
Right now I'm in Yoga Pants but here's what I wore to my Valentine Date...

 
 



and thats all for this week, I hope you all had a lovely Valentine Day and are having a great weekend!
 
Keep Smiling :D
