Snow Day.

Another snowy day again in the beautiful Northumberland, I don't know about you but I'm freezing, tired and I don't feel glamorous one little bit so instead of feeling down with the January blues it's time to get glam! Not that I'm a massive girlie girl, to be honest I'm always first ready for a night out. I like to keep my look boho, chic and simple and try to be as glamorous as possible.

One of my most favourite new items of cosmetics (life saver) is eye roll on from Garnier which contains caffeine extracts to soothe those dark rings and tired eyes literally has transformed me from looking tired all the time to fresh as a daisy. I highly recommend it for the day after the night before...

Speaking of which I like to use Rimmels BB cream after a night out or first thing in the morning to hit the gym. It's a fantastic lighter form of foundation which blends in so well with my skin! I usually put about the size of a 10p piece on and use that for the coverage of my T-zone in particular. It's so light and not cloggy at all on your skin at all which a bonus for fighting those outbreaks of spots. I like to add a bit of bronzer on my cheeks, so it gives me a sun kissed look. I've just started using 'Accesorize' bronzer which was a christmas present and it actually does just as good as other bronzer I've used previously.

Now my hair today needed a quick refresh and look like it's clean for doing some quick errands out and about. I use 'Bastiste' dry shampoo which lets face it is woman's best friend when you have no time to do your hair in the morning when your running late (like I was today) usually I spray it all over my hair let it settle and then brush it through and it looks good as new! I sometimes though however decide maybe a hat day is best instead of faffing, but it only takes a couple of minutes to look your best 💃

Now today, I've been out and about getting basics for the family and I decide to treat myself to magazines and a piece of bakewell tart (says she who is on a health kick...) accompanied by a hot chocolate with cream on top. Absolutely amazing. I can't begin to describe how much this has cheered me up on a winters day like today. Yummy!

Now I really need to get back to Zumba after my comical fall last week I am feeling the bulge return.. I'd like to run but it's too snowy and icy which I will probably fall over in but I bloody love Zumba! It's so energetic and fun you didn't even realise your working out doing 45 minutes of Zumba none stop you are working off at least 200 +calories which is amazing! When I get my bearings with Zumba and these other fitness classes I think I may step it up a few notches and start doing body pump which involves lots of weights and toning. This means laying off the cakes and other amounts of food I consume weekly... Speaking of cakes the Great British Bake Off started again last night for comic relief really looking forward to watching the rest of the heats! Right I should probably go catch up with Miranda (who I have been compared to...rude) such fun!..

So long for now :)
