Denim Ways

Hey lovely readers,

Welcome back to my blog. 

The one thing I hate about being a corporate lady, is the "no denim" dress code. But whats the point of rules, if you don't find a way to break them? I always cheat on the denim dress code with a denim shirt. For starters, it can be argued whether it is denim or not. And secondly, well I just love denim and I miss wearing it on weekdays...(hahaha, what an excuse). 

Right now I am thinking of any denim item (other than denim bottoms) that I can sneak into my office dress code. Any ideas my lovely readers?

Once again, thanks for stopping by.

Aika!

Back to fitness!

Hi lovely readers,

Welcome back to my blog. It looks like I having been stumbling with some of my 2015 goals including my fitness goals. But, as Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, "The greatest glory in living lies not in never failing, but rising every time we fall". I just raised from my fitness failure and I am sure by the end of the year, I will be back into my desired fitness goal.

Below are a few tips on how I get back into my fitness routine:

1. Workout first thing in the morning
I am usually or feign being busy during the day, the last thing I want to do at the end of the day is start running like a lunatic. So I have opted for early morning workouts instead. Additional benefits of starting my day workouts include feeling energized throughout the day. 

2. Find a workout partner. 
I am definetly not a "self-motivated to workout" kinda person, so I always find a partner to workout with. Am currently working out with my neighbour who doesnt even know my name (crazy, I kow). If you have a workout partner, you will feel motivated to be there each single day. The key is to find a workout partner who is in the same level as you. 

3. Stay psyched
Two things psych me up each day that I workout. The first is cute and comfy outfits that give me the confidence to hit the ground the minute I leave my house. The second is a promise to indulge in my favorite hobby i.e Shopping. I have promised myself that I will indulge and get these training shoes (this or this), should I attain my fitness goal by the end of the year. 

I would love to hear your tips on how you get back to fitness after months and months of procrastination. 

Once again thanks for stopping by.
