My Diet

At the moment I'm trying to loose some weight. So of course I have to watch my diet and as we all know, it's not the easiest thing to go on one. As for me, I believe that loosing weight and working out is more of a lifestyle than just controlling yourself for a certain period of time. And the most important thing is don't be too strickt with yourself because most of the time, that's the reason why you start binging!

I'm a vegetarian for almost half a year because of health reasons and I also started to loose weight before I did the following plan, just because I became a vegetarian. How cool is that?

So here's the way I eat and for me, it's the best way to loose weight and to stay healthy:

Morning: I love oats and when I get up in the morning, I like to cook them with some milk. It's perfect to start my day and it tastes so delicious. Sometimes I sprinkle some fruits on top of it. What I also like is plain yoghurt with an apple or one half of a banana, some nuts and a little bit of honey.

When I work out in the morning, I just drink a shake and I'll have breakfast later.

Lunch: Most of the time I make a salad with tons of veggies. I can get very creative on that one and very often I add some feta which I love. I don't like to eat that much at lunch either.

Between lunch and dinner I prefer fruits and nuts or veggie sticks with hummus to snack on.

Dinner: Steamed veggies  with some roasted Tofu is the best when you are on a diet, I try to avoid too many carbs at dinner. Sometimes I make a salad again or I just eat veggie sticks with hummus which I absolutely love. You can make so much with hummus and I also like to put it on top of my salad. Maybe I will post a recipe how to make your own at home because it's very easy to make and tastes so much better!

I try to control myself for 6 days of a week and I have one day where I can eat whatever I want :) Usually it's a day of my weekend.

So that's it for today, wish you all a nice, healthy Saturday!

DIY Lace Sweater

I found a great DIY idea on Pinterest this week which I wanted to show you guys!

The sweater is from Zara but you can easily make something like that at home: You just need a long sleeve shirt, cut out a piece of fabric on the area you like, fold the edges and stich straight down to create a hem. That way they won't fringe. Then use some lace, glue it on with fabric glue and secure it with some stitches. Done!

Hey guys!

I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday. The weather in Austria is great and it is a shame if you stay in your room all day!! I just wanted to share with you a song which I picked up from a friend's Facebook wall and I like it a lot. It's a German rap song but I bet you even like it if you don't speak German ;)

Hey guys!

The last couple of days were so exhausting I can tell ya! A lot of drama and bitchiness, but who cares life is too short to worry about unimportant stuff. Looking forward to get some sleep now.. Good night everybody!! (It's now 23:15 in Austria)

Some Make Up Items I Like

These are some of my all time favourite make up items.

I especially love the Diorskin Nude concealer and the stuff from MAC. I recommend this reddish brown colour called "Handwritten" for all blue and green eyed ladies out there and whenever I run out of it I instantly have to get a new one. MAC's Blacktrack is what I normally use for my eyeliner.

There's a lot I like from Smashbox and I usually buy my primers from this brand. When you use Photo Finish it will help you to blend your foundation afterwards. Another product I like is the Lid Primer which isn't on the picture. When you apply it before your eyeshadow, it won't get into your crease which can be REALLY annoying during the day.

When it comes to nail polish, I almost love any Essie colour they have, the one on the picture is called "Mademoiselle". Chanel's Le Vernis Madness is a great colour too because it's such a beautiful dark red that is also perfect for fall.
