Happy & Healthy: Gym Glam Giveaway! {CLOSED}

Cropped Pants Lululemon// Hoodie {Currently on Sale} Lululemon// Sports Bra Lululemon// Shoes Nike// Nails Essie

Summer will be here before we know it, and in preparation for bikini season I have been hitting the gym daily!  

In my last Happy & Healthy post I discussed my weight struggle over the last few years, as well as what it's like to live with Celiac Disease. After a 50 pound weight loss I am roughly at my goal weight and am looking to maintain, tone and firm. 

I've found that (like many women) my lower body has been the most difficult area to work on - especially because I really hate doing squats and lunges. 

To get to my personal best I have decided to increase my hot yoga practice and have now started a 30 day yoga challenge. I'm on my second week and I'm feeling amazing. I have also been attending pilates to help me in my efforts (we snapped these photos in my pilates studio). I really think that the combination of the two, along with a healthy diet, will help me achieve my goal!

Being a huge believer in Gym Glam, I think that looking stylish while working out really helps me stick to my fitness goals and that's why I am giving away a $50 gift certificate to Lululemon!

Good Luck

It's been super sunny for the last few weeks but it is still pretty chilly out so I layered one of my favorite Winter pieces with a Celine tee that I borrowed from my sister and a pair of my favorite black skinnies.

A Floral Dress









I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! Mine was filled with fun, family and visits with friends. I wouldn't call the weather amazing here - but it is definitely getting warmer. Christian and I decided to take a walk along a the waterfront in Vancouver's beautiful Stanley Park - that is where we snapped these pictures :)

Have a glam Monday!

A Printed Wrap Dress










Happy Friday!

I love a great printed wrap dress - don't you? 
I thought that this would be the perfect little dress to wear to a birthday dinner for one of my closest friends tonight. I wanted to keep all the attention on this gorgeous dress so I opted to keep my hair pulled into a low chignon, and limited myself to one piece of jewelry - which was difficult for me because I love accessories!  I decided to take the advice of Coco Chanel who famously said "Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and remove one accessory."
