Olsen Sh-molsen?
As much as I love these twin sisters in their movie roles and everything, I can't say the same about their fashion sense. Sometimes we see them looking fab! and sometimes they are just not doing themselves justice. They are gorgeous and have fame, they have their issues, they have problems like we all do, but just to look like this on the red carpet, is just not acceptable for people that have been so long in the industry.
Some people might love their style because they say they are original and just show their personality. Which I agree with up to certain point. You can match your personality with well fitted clothes that complement your body and make you more yourself. For example, they used this beautiful dresses to a red carpet event and they looked great! They showed that they are relaxed, fashion forward designers without going from classy to tacky and found the perfect middle for what they are trying to achieve.

University Busy Day: Lunch/Dinner Plan
Hey Guys!
And today (Thursday) I have class from 2 pm till 9 pm and have 1 hour free in which i will take also a small portion as my dinner so in that way i have no need to eat when I get home at 10 pm, at that time I will only drink a cup of coffee.

Today I have a long day and it is probably the second longest day I have in the week. Yesterday (Wednesday) I had class from 3 pm till 11 pm and had 3 hours of free periods where I had to take something to eat. What I did was take a small portion of what has been left from lunch and ate it at 7 pm when I felt hungry. It was just a small portion just to keep my tummy feeling good and I bought some hot chocolate as my drink.
And today (Thursday) I have class from 2 pm till 9 pm and have 1 hour free in which i will take also a small portion as my dinner so in that way i have no need to eat when I get home at 10 pm, at that time I will only drink a cup of coffee. I had to figure this type of things out because I couldn't last long enough without eating and feeling hungry. It is not healthy for your body to feel hungry because it will just start building up the calories because it enters into starvation mode in which it says that "ok i have to save food and calories because i might not receive any, any time soon".
So i hope you liked this fast little blog about what I am doing since yesterday when I have this long days of classes in which i have to spend a lot of time away from home and don't want to eat the food at the cafeteria which is just not healthy at all.

Gloving some Gloves
It's winter time here in Peru as you may already know, and I've been freezing more than normal. I have decided that I need, with desperation a pair of leathered gloves and I am in the search for a good pair. I loved the way Kim Kardashian rocked them last fall/winter and they are the best accessory to keep your hands warm and cosy, because I hate when my hands are like little ice cubes and I feel any minute they are going to start cracking and my fingers might fall off.
I searched in the Burberry site for gloves and I found a pair that I absolutely loved and had all the characteristics I was Looking for. But I am not splurging on something like that but just found them so pretty! they are expensive and I am no working girl for the moment so I am not asking my parents to spend that significant amount of money for a pair of gloves, it would not make sense at ALL.
They come in two colours, burgundy and black and they cost US$ 375.00. which is ridiculous for a pair of gloves but If I've had the money I would totally spend on them just as a treat to myself :)
I found this amazing pair of gloves at an online store called ShopNBC, and I think I might purchase them, they are leather and have really nice detail-like stitches an some buttons. They come in 3 different colours, pink, brown and black and are just so cute that I am going bananas over them.
What I liked the most was the price tag on them, they were originally $85. then got marked down to $29.75 and now they are only $18.78 which is a really good deal. If you want to check this amazing deal click here to be redirected to their site.
Here is a picture of the beautiful gloves:
hope you guys are enjoying the rest of your summer for my Fellas in the US and Europe, and for you guys living in the southern hemisphere, let's just wish summer get here FASTER! :)

Clothes 101: Working out Outfits part 2
Hey guys!
I know it took a lot of time to get the second part of this "series" but I have been watching all the new trends that are coming for the work out kind of business. Now people like the good old spandex pants and even use the leggins as workout pants.
In other words, people love been comfortable is the KEY. I know this is a recurring subject in this type of posts, specially for the girls and women that go for hikes and biking and even inside of a gym for dance classes or boot-camps that make you sweat your life out (FAT BURNING BABY). Now I was planning to make a side note and focus more on the people that like to build up muscle and tone their body and how wearing a perfect outfit can help you to be at the top of that goal.
First of all you need (again) comfortable clothes and a little heavy clothes so that you add a little extra effort
to your work out and push yourself a little further.
wearing some baggy clothes that can make you sweat, is the most important factor to burn the fat and start toning and building up muscle. Remember: always make sure to do the right exercises for the goal you want to achieve with a PT (personal trainer) or in the gym you go to.
A woman always need to have support, remember the essentials by clicking here to see that, and use a sports bra under those clothes. A hoody can make you sweat and it is not so light so it make your workout to have some more intensity.
I found a good deal on them in VS Pink collection and instantly thought that Pink= GIRLY, so I had to add some of their items. The one that I liked the most is the Yoga half-zip Pullover and it has a nice ensemble and comes in a variety of other colours other than grey.

They have zip-up hoodies and hoodies with no zippers, which I personally like the most because I feel that they are more comfortable and the zipper doesn't get in the way while you are running or exercising.
I guess I find always something from VS because I instantly think that working out must also be a fun way to be the fashionable self that you are.
Also find some baggy pants and some comfy running shoes or shoes that are suitable for the type of workout you are doing.
In honour of getting the perfect training shoes, I found this pair of trainers of course, they are pink haha! and they are nikes, what else can you ask for ? ok here is the picture of them:

As I was saying, get a pair of baggy pants that can make you sweat even more and push you a lot further with your routine. If you can, get those sauna suits and start working out with the pants or only with the top because working with the both can make you supper hot and make dehydration. So keep a water bottle always next to you while you workout.
Here are some pictures of the Baggy Pants

watches and new shoes :)
I recently got from my aunt living in Cannes, France a super fun watch which is like a bracelet that you just wrap around your wrist like one of those that don't need any locks or anything which is awesome so that you are not suffering to hook them. It came with 4 different bracelets that you can switch according to your outfit. The colours are Pink, Blue, Black and White and are the basic ones that can go with all your clothes and make a beautiful piece of an accessory.
On my road trip I came across a beautiful pair of ankle booties and just loved them (this is when my love at first sight flourishes for clothes and shoes and handbags hehe) and just had to get them and then IT HAPPENED they where on SALE! and also they were having a BUY 1 GET ONE FREE! and YES i got another pair of ankle booties because I was just needing them for the cold weather we have here. I fell for them the instant I walked through the glass window they had them in. I'd wish I had the picture Now, but when i do I'll update this post to let you guys see them :)

Sobe LifeWater Review
Hey guys!
They contain natural flavours and they sweeten their products with Stevia extract which come from a plant and doesn't contain a lot of chemicals like other sweeteners do.
I just started classes, as you may know from my previous post, and in one of my trips to university I purchased the Sobe LifeWater in fuji apple pear and I thought it was good. I had previously tried the one in yumberry pomegranate and I loved it, specially cause it was pink :) but that time I went for the fuji apple pear cause it was different and I'd never heard of it.
Here in Peru we only have two flavours, the black and blue berry is not available but I wish it was because I like the taste, at least, of blue berries. Even though there are more flavours available I think that those 3 are the most popular.
The LifeWaters contain a lot of beneficial components and ingredients to help your health be optimal. The majority of their flavours are 0-calories and they taste good (at least the ones I've tried). They have a wide range coming from antioxidants to energy boosters. The energy boosters are a combination of vitamins B's and they help you go through your day like if you've had a red bull, but in a healthier way.
They contain natural flavours and they sweeten their products with Stevia extract which come from a plant and doesn't contain a lot of chemicals like other sweeteners do. I really think that this product is really good if you want to treat yourself with other than just water and make a full experience from it.
