YOGA: stylish in sportswear

Hello Sassies! 


Now as you all know, we're in the middle of winter and it's getting harder to stay beautiful and in shape, seeing as we can't bike or go for a jog without freezing!

I'm going to talk to you about something I use to stay fit and healthy during the snow season. Yoga. Get a mat, look at some online techniques and your good to go!!! 




Now the question is, how do you rock the pose without being the one wearing baggy pants and a sweaty tee. Leggings are a must have for this winter and seeing as its all grey and snowy, the colours are... THE EXACT OPPOSITE!!! Bring in the colour with pastel colours and rainbow prints for this season's women indoor sportswear!!!




Hope that you found this post helpful!

2015 GLOW: new you, new body!

Hello Sassies!

So today I'm going to talk about feeling good: in your body! For those of you who are teenagers, I think you can relate to the feeling of not being happy and comfortable in your body, if not than you're a very lucky person! I've been feeling kind of gross lately so I definitely wanted to do a post on how I managed to go back to normal and how to feel good in your body;) :

1. Eat well!
First of all, I'm no nutritionist, I'm just mentioning what makes me feel good and that's healthy food! I know, I know we'd all just love to sit around and eat: 


This all day but unfortunately if we do so, our svelte figures will disappear:( it's important to eat foods that make you feel fresh and good but that doesn't mean cut out all the sweets!(thank goodness!) 
It just means to lean towards:

Stuff like this with a treat every once and a while;)

2. Work out!
You don't have to be an Olympic athlete to have a nice body, but if you're just sitting around like a couch potato, go for a jog or hop onto that bike! I can 100% guarantee you'll feel 10 times better plus the shower afterwards will feel like heaven!



3. Drink water!
I swear it'll drain all the yuck you're feeling inside you and you'll feel much much lighter! Water is SOO good for you plus it feels great to just have a cold glass of it whenever! I drink 2 litres a day and I've honestly never felt more alive, so try it! 



And with that, I hope you've enjoyed this post as much as I've enjoyed writing it! Enjoy 2015 in that great new body of yours!!!

HAPPY 2015: motivation

I HAPPY NEW YEAR SASSIES! 







Omg I'm so sorry I haven't gotten this post in and it is a little late on my behalf but happy new year!

Many of my friends have told me what their resolutions are but what I noticed is that all of them included motivation in their long lists of resolutions. So I've decided to make motivation the subject of this post and this year! Everyone loves the new year because it's a chance to recreate yourself, become a new person! 







Now let's talk about the theme! What is motivation? To me it's the will to learn, the desire to succeed and the power to be awesome! Some of you may think me to be a bit to...how to say? too confident but hey! we each got our quirks right?

That's my resolution, to work harder and be the best me that I can be! What are your New Years resolutions? 






Happy new year SASSIES may this be a great new adventure for you!

Xoxo,

WILL.I.AM: the will to be great!


Hi guys so today I'm doing a special on: the one, the only, the magnificent WILL.I.AM!!!! 







So he's been my role model from day one and I'd like to share with you the reasons I think he's awesome: 

- He started from nothing and now he's like one of the most famous people of all! 
He didn't have the best childhood and now everything he does evolves around helping kids who live in bad neighbourhoods.




- His biggest accomplishments is I.AM.STEAM, a foundation he created to help educate underprivileged kids and teenagers in bad neighbourhoods. So now he's making sure that he's giving all these people bigger and better opportunities in life. 




- He created the black eyed peas which I think is so cool because it takes a lot of courage to create a band let alone lead it to the Grammys and Music Awards! 





In conclusion, we should all try to contribute to society as much as Will.i.am  because if he can make a difference, why can't we?

Xoxo,

CONFIDENCE: happy girls are the prettiest

Hey Sassies,

So today I'm doing a post on being confident and brave. So being brave is being your best self and being happy with the person that you are. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent! 

I have visited so many websites and seen so many videos on different girls' point of view and opinion about how to be confident. But I have created my own list of tips of how to be confident:

--- Shoulders back! As my great-grandmother always said: "Shoulders back, sick those boobies out.  Nothing worse than a tall girl who slouches!!!" Walk as if you were a model on the runway of the latest Chanel fashion show in Paris. But watch out don't have a big ego just be fun and outgoing.



--- Embrace who you are! Don't shut out the person you are, if you like wearing collars and glasses or yellow socks with a turquoise shirt, go for it. If people talk badly about you behind you behind your back, forget it, they'll never be as awesome as you!!!

--- JUMP!!! When you feel to shy to talk to the boy you like or you're scared to try something new, just got for it, tell yourself that nothing bad can happen. If you get a bad grade, just talk about or even laugh. I knows it sounds crazy 😂 but it's true, it's actually not that bad. The worst has happened, what are you going to do?




--- Be funny or tell jokes. Did you know that laughing for 45 minutes a day is actually really good for you? 

--- Live a fun life. Read books and work hard in school. I'm saying don't care about things TOO much. If you feel like squealing in the middle of the courtyard at school because you got a good grade or if you feel like dancing in the morning when you wake up to an awesome jam: GO FOR IT!!!!! 


--- Listen to music. There's nothing better than imagining your own perfect little world while listening to a cool song. 

--- Look at yourself in the mirror every once in a while and make a silly face! It's funny and goofy. Just do it to remind yourself how cool you can be!

So Sassies, at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is your happiness. Forget your grades, the mean girls at school and the boy who rejected you, they are SOOO not worth your time!

I hope you found this post helpful because honestly we girls often forget the true meaning of bravery and confidence, so once you are finished reading this post, I would like you to get up and dance a jig!

Xoxo,
