Don't give up, follow your dreams

Happy weekend everyone!
Did you know?
It is the possibility of having a dream come true. I like to believe everything is possible if we put our mind into it. Some people might laugh at your dreams and might say negative things, but all you have to do is keep believing and following whatever your heart desires.
Sometimes it might take a bit longer or it might not go exactly the way you imagined, but that will change after a while. The main thing is to start. Step by step.
Thinking is something we need to do to survive. So lets be positive, from now on create your day in advance by thinking the way you want it to go. 

Wishing you all a wonderful and positive weekend!

''Love''

All I Want Are High Heels

Spring is here and so it's time to do some shopping.
After months of wearing boots we can finally let our feet breath.

I already mentioned in one of my post that wearing heels makes us feel confident and stylish. Just putting on a pair of sexy high heels can actually make us feel sexier. 
High heels give a stylish look.  
They improve any outfit, they keep your back straighter, lift your bum, make you taller and of course make your legs look longer.
I love any kind of shoes, but heels are my favorite.  
Wearing high heels makes one feel in control :-) They also make a perfect choice for all types of events.

''You put high heels on and you change.''

I like spending time outside going from store to store, but sometimes it's nice to stay at home and do your shopping online while having your cup of coffee. You can choose any time of the day or night to get on the Web and shop, plus the choices you can get for products are amazing.

Celebrate the season with heels, wedges, sandals, flats and more.
Discover the latest in women's shoes at DresSale and spoil yourself.

Happy First Day of Spring

Today is the first day of Spring, are you doing something special?
Spring is a wonderful season because everything begins to grow. In the Spring the weather is just right. The sky seems to be always blue and the air is very fresh. Everything around becomes beautiful... beautiful flowers, blossoming trees, green grass, etc.
I love waking up to the sound of birds singing outside, it always put me in a good mood, even though I have to wake up very early. It is like nature itself is saying ''Good morning''. 

Reasons I love Spring: 
1.) Fresh air
2.) Blossoming flowers and trees
3.) Birds singing
4.) Longer days
5.) Picnics in the park
6.) Time for cycling in the park, around the city
7. ) Outdoor exercise 
8.) Changing of the wardrobe for a cute floral dresses and skirts 


Have a nice beginning of Spring! Enjoy the beautiful days, open your windows and let the sunshine in.

Vitamin D deficiency and Vitamin D benefits

Have you been extremely tired lately, so tired you feel it in your bones?
In the last few month I have been feeling very tired. I decided to have a blood test and found out that I am Vitamin D deficient.
  
The symptoms of vitamin D deficiency include: 
- Tiredness
- Pain in your bones
- Weakness
- Muscle twitching 
- Mood swings and depression
- You can also have frequent infections
- Some people may not have any symptoms at all. 

Vitamin D is important for good health, growth and strong bones. 
I got vitamin D supplements. I've been told to eat a lot of oily fish, eggs, fortified breakfast cereals and powdered milk. I have been also told that about 10 to 15 minutes a day in the sun without sunscreen is enough to top up vitamin D levels.

Well, last few days have been hot in Paris and since our body make vitamin D when the sun shines, now is the perfect weather to spend some time on the sun. I feel more energetic and happier when the sun shines. 
Sunshine boosts levels of serotonin, the body's natural happy hormone.  :-)






Vitamin D benefits:
1.) Vitamin D plays an important role in maintaining a healthy body weight.
2.) Helps prevent cavities.
3.) Vitamin D have been shown to help prevent falls and reduce fractures.
4.) Vitamin D and calcium are used to treat people with osteoporosis.
5.) Low levels of vitamin D may be linked to high blood pressure.
6.) Vitamin D is important for heart health. 
7.) Vitamin D prevent breast cancer.
8.) Vitamin D supplementation may improve symptoms of depression associated with SAD.

Remember:
Not getting enough sunlight is one reason some people suffer from vitamin D deficiency.
Look after yourself and spend some time in the sun.

A woman's hair is her crown of glory

 
February has been a busy month for me. 
We went on holidays to Switzerland, we had a few business meetings and our month started by attending to a party. I was excited about it already a week before.

I decided to have my hair done for a night and after my collaboration with Toni and Guy I knew, they would style my hair the way I wanted.
Since my first visit there, they always took such a lovely care of me and my hair.

The team is the one thing I look forward to. They are welcoming, friendly and make me feel special. Jeff the manager is fantastic, his ability technically and creatively is superb. He always take care of my hair and styles it like an artist.

What more can I say? 
The quality of work and customer service is impressive. I would recommend them to anyone. They all are amazing and ready to help.

Having a different hairstyle or haircut make us feel better. Next time when you are in Paris, make sure you'll have your hair done at Toni and Guy.

Tel 01 40 50 79 79

After living Toni and Guy, I came home, did my make up and was ready to go.
Everything was perfect, party was great, the only problem was that we forgot our camera at home. I couldn't believe it, night like this and we left it at home.
We took pictures by phone, but as you can see it the quality is poor and they are not very clear. Even though I decided to share them with you.


Ready to party

Overcoming Fear of Heights

As I mentioned in my last post, I just came back from a lovely holidays in Switzerland ''Paradise'' as I call it. 
I'm very happy, because finally I learned how to ski. 
I never have thought that skiing would turn into something that I would enjoy so much. 
Why?
Because I was so terrified of skiing and I have also fear of heights. But my boyfriend loves to ski and he told me he wishes, I could do it too.
 
Skiing is not the easiest to learn as a grown-up. The problem is as an adult we are more aware of the danger. 
However a good ski teacher is someone who will encourage and challenge you. 
It was a great feeling to be on top of the mountains, but then I look down and I got scared.
I remember my instructor keep telling me: 
''You can do it, just don't lean back on your skis, unless you want to fall.''
Leaning back while skiing means your balance will be thrown off and you will fall in many unappealing ways. 
It can be frustrating if you are not progressing as fast as you would like to, so it helps to have encouragement. 
I was a bit scared at the beginning, but once I learned the basics, all experience and lesson became enjoyable and fun.
Now I look forward to next winter.
