Bye August!

Happy end of the month people! 

It's been a great month (but also so sad) . From the beginning to the end. I loved going back to University and switching up my style a bit. The cooler months are the best for me, I love bundling up in warm clothes, and layering is my favourite statement. 

I have so much things going on these months and upcoming weeks, from reading to events that I'm super excited for. When the time comes, I might be able to share them with you! I have nothing set in stone for some projects but lets see what come along! 

In general, I hope September is as good as August and that it will open some more doors for me. 

I hope you had a great month and that are enjoying every second of life.

Gone too soon

There is nothing as hard as the loss of someone you love. Specially if the love you had was unconditional and immensely profound. I have a hard time with good-byes. That kind of good-byes. One of my little furry ones gave up yesterday to the hardest of her battles. After saving her the first time from kidney and hepatic failure, her back legs started to fail her too. She started treatment for this on Monday, by yesterday she seemed to have improved when she got to the vet for her dose of the day. She was fine, I had to massage her in form of therapy 3 times a day, by night I did this with my mum, she was so good and so relaxed that nothing seemed to be going wrong. We left her in her bed, covered with a little blanket we bought her, and headed out to grab dinner in the dinning room. We think her heart gave up, she was not eating as good as we wished but we did what was in our power to keep her strong with vitamins and all that jazz. When we entered the room again 15 mins later, she didn't respond to us, and that was it. 

She was a great dog, the best of companions for 6 years. In deed she's gone too soon. She will be forever loved and missed. 

I have no more words to describe this feelings of sorrow and bitterness and more. I'm sorry for this sad post, but I am crushed. I still have my other little furry baby, she's here and I will cherish her for as long as she stays with us.

Walking, A nice way to excercise

Hey everyone! 

It's been a while since I posted anything about health, and fitness. Let's be real, I like more fashion and beauty and know much much more about it. And it's easier to find articles all about fashion. 

Lately, walking is one of the things we do in our house hold. Want to go to the grocery store 10 blocks from home? Walk. Want to visit my aunt living exactly on 6 blocks down my street? Walk. Want to get the dogs to walk not using our-at-home treadmill? (yeah we do that) WALK THEM. The best health option.  

While walking, you are exercising. Maybe not as tiring as a good old run around the  neighbourhood, but it is still something. You will burn calories, you will feel more oxygenated (although at the beginning you will be TIRED)  and you will be just more fit and with better resistance. 

All of this walking, I know I am repeating my-self a lot, is so beneficial for your mood too. Your endocrine system will release  endorphins and they will make you more relaxed an happy. And to quote Elle Woods. Happy people don't kill.  

Remember, walking makes you fitter, and just less stressed. If you have little time in the day, try switching up your schedule, and walk short distances when you have to run errands. 

I hope you guys have a wonderful, wonderful weekend!
