Pep Up Your Playlist- Great Workout Songs

Alright, so you're at the gym, halfway through your workout. You've still got another 25 minutes on the treadmill, but you're incredibly bored and tired. You make a last-ditch attempt to find a good workout song on your iPod, but the next few songs you shuffle through look something like this... My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion, Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson, and Give Me Everything Tonight by Pitbull. These songs, while fine for other occasions, are either too 'chill' or too overplayed to get you through your workout. Here's my most recent Workout Mix that's helped me from falling asleep at the gym.

1. Wings- Little Mix
2. Heartbeat- Childish Gambino
3. Good Swim- Frank Ocean
4. Vegas Girl- Conor Maynard
5. Runaway Baby- Bruno Mars
6. Spectrum (Calvin Harris Remix)- Florence + The Machine
7. We'll Be Coming Back- Calvin Harris Feat. Example
8. Turn Up the Love- Far East Movement
9. Let Me Love You- Ne-Yo
10. As Long As You Love Me- Justin Bieber feat. Big Sean
11. Rabiosa- Shakira feat. El Casa
12. Pound the Alarm- Nicki Minaj
13. Every Time You Go- Ellie Goulding
14. Everybody Talks- Neon Trees

Add a few of these songs to your workout playlist, and they'll put the fun back into exercising!

Check It Out- Hyperbole and a Half

Hey everyone! Just wanted to do a quick blog post to tell you to check out another blog. Wait- that doesn't sound quite right... let me try this again.
My newest obsession is a blog called 'Hyperbole and a Half'. It's sort of like an online memoir, with pictures. I can guarantee that you will laugh out loud, and probably snort whatever you're eating/drinking through your nose.*
Check it out here 

ta ta for now, HOH4H

Shoe of the Month- Ciao Bella Riding Boots

It's January, and everyone knows what that means. Constantly trudging through sleet, snow, and hail while braving freezing temperatures. I don't know about you, but I hate wearing super high heels in winter, because I hate walking on top of black ice, simultaneously worrying about a) if I look cute, and b) am I going to slip and crack my head open on this sheet of ice. Thanks to my Ciao Bella's, I don't worry about either, because a) the boots are distinctive and cute, so I know I look good, and b) slipping is a lot harder to do when you aren't wearing your stiletto booties. 
I like that this shoe has a slight heel (1 inch), because they are wearable in winter without being fashion-homocide. My only advice- they can be a bit expensive, so I suggest getting them off of bluefly, but wait until bluefly has a good show sale. (You shouldn't have to wait too long for this as they have sales quite often) Click here to shop.

Your Guide To A Cute Winter Parka

If you live in a region where it's cold during the winter, you most likely will want a warm parka. It's so hard to find a cute parka, because most of them look puffy and ridiculous. But you don't have to sacrifice fashion for warmth with these cute ideas!


Guess faux fur- this jacket has a simple, streamlined shape + it's warm without being too puffy. + It comes in black and white, which both match with almost anything  Click to shop.


Toggles- a toggled peacoat is a chic, classic style. but try a toggled parka! This Urban Outfitters coat has the appeal of a toggled peacoat with some added warmth! Click to shop.


















Crop parka from Gap- this cropped parka has a unique cut & interesting shape. This parka is great for someone with an edgy style. Click to shop.





.






Long- you'll be sure to stand out in this long, fashion-forward ASOS parka. The high waistline is universally flattering + I love the wide faux fur collar. Click to shop





Bomber- if you don't want a super long jacket, bombers are great. This one is puffy but since it's smaller at the bottom, the puffiness isn't overpowering. I love the dark purple color, because you won't find many people with it, but it also comes other colors. Click to shop.

BuzzWorthy Beauty: The Best Hand Cream

There are so many products out there that claim to relieve very dry & cracked hands, but I haven't come across any that really work. That is, until I discovered Camille Beckman's Glycerin Hand Therapy. Honestly, this stuff really works! Even just a pea-size amount instantly moisturizes. It's thick and creamy and resembles more of a body butter rather than a liquid-like lotion, but it doesn't leave hands super greasy! They're also very reasonably priced. Not to mention it comes in a few great-smelling scents. Oriental Spice is my fave--it smells exotic and warm. Some other scents include, French Vanilla, Mango Beach, Tuscan Honey and White Lilac, just to name a few. Click here to visit the Camille Beckman website. :)

Peace & Love,
