I got back from Blanes (Spain) last Sunday and I thought I'd make a photo diary of my week there. I went with 4 friends and we stayed at a cosy apartment near the beach. I truly had the time of my life, I love Spain! I'm leaving for Turkey today with my mother and brother so my blog will be inactive until I return on the 1st of September, sorry! Let's get on to the pictures, shall we?

The first thing we did after
 we arrived and dropped of our suitcases? Straight to the beach of course!


Pure bliss and look at the ocean, beautiful shade of blue!


Let's take a selfie!


Showing off my new bikini.


Home cooked meal! Completely vegan and very easy.


Waiting for the bus to Lloret de Mar!


The view from our balcony, the "Arena", the biggest club in Blanes.


Spotted the most beautiful rainbow while looking for a place to have dinner.


Amazing!


And of course, while in Spain you must drink Sangria!


Look at all those fruits, yum!


Boat trip in Lloret de Mar. 


We spend one day in Barcelona and visited the Sagrada Familia.



Still a work in progress.




 Met up with my dad in Barcelona (he lives in Zaragoza).



Italian for dinner!




Some group photos!


Our last dinner together in Blanes.


All the wrist bands I collected.


I was so sad to leave at the end of the week, the days went far too quick. This was my first vacation without my parents and it felt great! You have so much more freedom when you're with your friends. Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures but they were all taken with my phone! Should I do a photo diary about my week in Turkey too?

My weekly review for the bikini body guide! My reviews for the other weeks:

week 2 here
week 3 here
week 4 here
week 5 here
week 6 here
week 7 here
week 8 here
week 9 here
week 10 here
week 11 here



Monday
Legs. Felt like week 1 all over again, 180 degree jump squats are so hard!

Tuesday:
Half an hour of biking for cardio.

Wednesday:
My arms are so much stronger now, I could do almost all moves without pausing! Definitely felt sore the next day.

Thursday:
Biked half an hour for cardio.

Friday:
Abs! I'm seeing the most results in this area, although abs are made in the kitchen these workouts really helped define mine.

Saturday:
Biked half an hour for cardio.

Sunday
Rest.

And here are my final results! (week 1 left and week 12 right)




I'm so happy with my final results! The workouts were very hard (especially in the beginning) but the results were worth it! I'm going to repeat the last 4 weeks and add in more strength training to maintain these results an hopefully lose some more body fat. I would recommend the guide for everyone who wants to tone up and is willing to work for it. It may seem pricey but compared to hiring a personal trainer for 12 weeks it's a good buy!

Rest.

Sunday

Not my best week... But that happens and I'm getting back on track for week 10! I've been doing the bikini body guide for 9 weeks now and I'm so glad I started it. I've seen a nice change in my body, I've gotten leaner and stronger! Here are my progress pictures (week 1 on the left, week 9 on the right):




It certainly looks like I lost some body fat! Especially my stomach and upper legs look a lot slimmer. I can't wait to post my final before and after in 3 weeks!

Arms and abs. I love how strong my arms are compared to week 1, imagine I couldn't even do one push up!


Tuesday:
Biked half an hour for cardio.

Wednesday:
Abs and cardio. I actually don't mind cardio that much when it's in between other exercises, makes it less boring!


Thursday:
Walked half an hour for cardio.

Friday:
Legs and cardio! Broad jump burpees and tuck jumps are so hard, I had to pause so many times to catch my breath.

 



Saturday:
Walking around and dancing at Pinkpop

Sunday:
Same as Saturday!

And that concludes week 8, I can't believe I've only got one month left! I'll be posting progress pictures with the next review (week 9). At the moment I'm at Pinkpop (a 3 day festival) so sorry I can't reply to any of your comments or emails. I'll be back on Tuesday.

Today I went to Primark to shop some summer clothes for my upcoming vacation and festival. Primarks collection varies a lot so I was worried they might not have a lot of clothes that matched my style/taste but luckily that wasn't the case! Let's take a look at my purchases, shall we?


€15

My favorite find from today, fake creepers! Really cheap compared to the real ones and I can't tell the difference.

€3,50

You really can't go to a festival without a flower crown, can you? 

€3,50

A cute bag made for carrying your bikini.

€5
Loafers! I have wanted a pair since last summer but never found ones that fitted me right. These one are the first comfortable pair I've found!

€7

A cute monochrome jumpsuit.

€12

I fell in love with this Aztec maxi-dress the second I saw it! Finding a cute maxi-dress can be hard as a short girl but this one didn't make me feel like I was a gnome.

€7

Another Aztec print! Needless to say I'm a fan.

€9

A lace bikini cover-up, perfect for at the beach.

€12

Midi skirts. Before I tried this one on I was never too sure they would look right on anyone except models but I definitely changed my mind. The print is really cute and the cut makes my waist look really slim!

€6

I grabbed this tee as a joke but actually turned out liking it very much. Who can say no to ice-cream right?

€6

"More taste than money" aka story of my life.

€3

Only when I got home did I realize that the girl on this tank top looks a lot like Demi Lovato... I'm still not sure if it's her though.

€3

This shirt is so soft, I might have been petting it for the last ten minutes...

€2,50

A basic tank top.

€5

A basic oversized tee.

€13

 I bought so many shorts, It's ridiculous... This one immediately caught my eye because of the lace detail.

€4 

Aztec print again... But can you blame me? It's so bright and colorful!

€5

Blue printed shorts with silk like fabric.

€6

Daisy print! The perfect spring/summer print.
