Cotton On Body – The winter fitness fashion staples

It’s getting cold in the southern hemisphere now and I don't know about you but motivation is at an all time low to get up early and go for a walk or get to the gym. And when you do decide to get up you usually half sleepily pull together some sort of mismatched outfit of your old trackies, a rumpled tee and an hoodie that just doesn't go well with the whole attire. Cute gym clothes always make me feel so much more motivated and who said you cant look cute on your fat burner walk or while working out.

Just because its winter and you need to rug up doesn’t mean you have to look like a hobo.

Quick Travel Guide: WAIKIKI

You know you have been to a fair few places when you are always asked “Have you been here...oh of course you have” and then asked for your travel trips.

Waikiki is no exception (I’ve been twice) and given its on such a small island of Oahu, I feel like I’ve got the main points covered of all things Waikiki.
Oahu itself is so beautiful, its hard to believe they have such contrasts on one small island; the beach, the city, the mountains, the rainforests.
 

I’m one of those middle class girls (read: luxury on a budget) so I like the nice, not fancy and expensive but I’ve upgraded from the backpackers. I’ve done my fair share of those to last me a lifetime

Wedded Bliss

I could never have imagined a more perfect day than my wedding day. I got to marry my dream man in a dream location with 46 of our closest friends and family.

I had always dreamed about being married in Hawaii but never thought it would come true so when we settled on having a destination wedding in Waikiki I knew it was going to be amazing no matter what.
I planned our entire wedding by email so its safe to say I was a bundle of nerves and stress hoping everything would turn out exactly like I had planned and for the most part it. Thankfully the day went off without a hitch.

A new name, a new look, a new idea

I'm baaaaaackk!! and this time the blog has a new name (LUNGES & LUXE), a new colour scheme (I've gone with black and white) and we've changed from a fitness only blog to a lifestyle blog because, well, lets face it - I like more than just fitness!

LUNGES & LUXE is all about health, fitness, travel, lifestyle, beauty and everything in between. We like to share the love so you can share the love as well. We have a brand new instagram @lungesandluxe so give us a few likes and a follow to keep up to date.



So what have I been up to? Number 1 big thing... I GOT MARRIED! and it was so amazing it deserves its own post (coming soon). We honeymooned in Hawaii, Vegas and LA and I have some top travel tips for each of those places.

I am back at the gym and working on losing the honeymoon weight gain and implementing a flexible dieting approach to my food. So many new blog posts ideas for you guys to enjoy!
