Exercise

Heyyaa,
Sorry that posts have been a bit sparse recently, its just that I'm doing my exams so have been busy revising. I'll try and get back to normal as soon as I can. So, today I thought I'd do a post on exercise which was one of my new years resolutions. I was doing well with this until I had a week or two off over Easter because I didn't have much time and couldn't really be all that bothered. Since then I've not been eating all that healthily or doing much exercise, I've really struggled to get back on track. So, I thought I'd do a bit of a motivation post because when I put my new years resolutions post up a few of you said that you were trying to do more exercise as well.

These are a few of my favourite fitness, motivation quotes. There are a lot more that pop up on my Tumblr dashboard that I love but I thought that I'd keep it to four otherwise this blogpost would be far too long!
I thought I'd also share a few of my favourite workouts with you as well:



These are my two favourite workouts because they are so simple and easy to do, you don't need anything and you can do them anywhere at any time. I also like doing Cassie for Blogilates workouts (Blog: http://www.blogilates.com/ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIJwWYOfsCfz6PjxbONYXSg) and following the Tone It Up (Blog: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIJwWYOfsCfz6PjxbONYXSg YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/ToneItUpcom) girls workouts and the series they do.
I hope that you all liked this post and that it was helpful to a few of you. I think that I'll do a similar post on Healthy Eating soon as well if you want it. I know this post was quite long but I hope you like it! Let me know in the comments if there are any posts that you want me to do.

Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama Mascara Review

Heyyaa,
So, today I thought I'd do a review of my new favourite mascara, Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama. I 'd seen a lot of reviews of this mascara and Tanya Burr always raves about it so I thought I'd go out and buy it because I needed a new mascara. I really like this mascara. I only need one coat of this and my lashes are done whereas with my old mascara I needed a few coats. This goes on really nicely and makes your lashes really long and thick without them going clumpy. I think its especially great because of the price (£7.99) as I've tried other mascaras that have been about the same price and they've been nowhere near as good.
 
The only negatives to this mascara are that it tends to flake if you have it on all day but it usually lasts until I get in from school so I'm not really that bothered it also tends to smudge all around your eyes if you ever cry whilst you're wearing it. On the whole, I really like this mascara and will definitely repurchase it in the future. Have you guys ever tried it? What did you think? Let me know in the comments if there are any blog posts that you want me to do as always.
Much love,
Jeminix

The Shopaholic Tag!

Heyyaa,
So, I thought I'd do the Shopaholic tag today. Hope you like it:
1. Would you consider yourself a shopaholic?
Yes. Whenever I go shopping I always end up buying something - I just can't help it! I always see something that I like and something that I "need".
2. How would you classify your style?
Comfy, for sure, I never wear anything if it's uncomfortable. I do sometimes follow trends but only if I like them and they suit me.
3. What store can you not leave without buying at least one thing?
Primark definitely. It's all so cheap!
 4. Where do you find the best deals?
Again, Primark or sometimes TK Maxx.
5. What designer are you willing to splurge for?
I don't splurge for a specific designer but I'm willing to splurge for a good handbag.
6. Do you have a "go-to" shopping outfit?
Something comfy and easy to get off, usually leggings and T-shirt or vest top and a cardi.
7. What is your guilty pleasure? (Aside from make-up)
Handbags! Definitely.
8. What is one staple clothing piece you cannot live without?
Thick, black leggings. They go with anything and are so comfy!
9. What is a trend you hope never goes out of style?
Prints and pops of bright colours.
10. What trend did you love that passed way to quickly?
Not really sure on this one, I don't think there really is one to be honest.
11. Who is your style icon?
Partly Lauren Conrad and Michelle Keegan but I just tend to wear what I want and don't specifically copy one person or anything.
So, that is the Shopaholic tag. Hope you liked it :) I tag all of you guys to do this tag and if you do let me know in the comments and I'll check it out. Also, remember to let me know if there are any posts that you want me to do.
Much love,
