How to Eat Less Sugar

Spring is only a few days away and while I am still recovering from the terrible cold I had for the past week, a month of over-eating beforehand due to my parents month-long visit (best time of my life!) and finally that very long holiday season full of treats and indulgences, I find myself a few pounds heavier and a little bit (or moderately!) out of shape. Admitting the fact is already hard enough, but then comes this really unpleasant feeling when your clothes just don't fit right anymore. 
Obviously I started browsing the internet and found hundreds of articles on how to lose weight fast, but I quickly realized that as much as I desperately want to lose weight, my main concern is still health. 
So I turned to my good old (or new?) friends - books (which is by far the only New Year's resolution that I keep sticking with!). I have just finished "The Body Book" by Cameron Diaz and I can't recommend it enough! It is very easy to read and, most importantly, very easy to implement. Cameron doesn't just talk about food, she touches every aspect of wellbeing in a very "21st century" way. The book is very informative, but as soon as I read the small article about sugar, I immediately bookmarked it and decided to share with you guys!

Overalls in Lincoln

I was going to share these photos with you last week, but I have been in bed for the past several days unable to move, breathe or think straight because of the nasty flu virus I caught :( Thank you so much for being incredibly sweet and supportive on my socials, your comments always make my day! But without further ado, here is my second editorial with Lincoln Navigator 2015, that I previously featured here. This time I felt like combining denim overalls and white details in a sexy and playful look to complement a big luxe SUV.

Lusting over Florals

I love wearing florals in spring so I am slowly transitioning my wardrobe and searching for new pieces to add to my closet. How do you feel about florals?

Get Ready for the Beach with Me


The weather is slowly changing and I am getting excited about swimsuit season. Target has asked me to share my beach must-haves this season and I got stuck at my local store for a few hours. They have so many different swimsuit styles that I wanted to try them all on, and it took me a while to choose the best two. They are all seriously amazing, and most importantly, affordable! So without further ado, here are my beach must haves in 2015:
1) swimsuit (better to have two in case you need a dry one immediately)
2) a big hat to cover protect your face from evil sun exposure
3) body lotion and face SPF (for the same reason as point 2)
4) a good book to pass your time in case you don't find someone interesting to watch
5) headphones (to listen to some music or pretend that you do ;))
6) lipstick, hairclip and sunglasses for immediate restyling tricks
and voila... that's it. Easy packing list with most of the items available at Target.
