Things have been buuuusy here in Copenhagen. July flew by in a whirlwind, did it not?! Here’s a little recap of what I’ve been up to {lately}…
{I spent two days in a row on the Islands Brygge harbor watching beautiful sunsets and swimming in the chilly water}
{I celebrated one of my best friend’s birthdays, and K of course covered himself in balloons for the occasion}
{I found out that getting stuck in a summer rainstorm isn’t so bad after all}
{I rocked a mini arm-party at the Green Concert music festival}
{Where I saw an amazing concert with Alphabeat - one of my very favorite bands!}
{I discovered a trick to cooling down white wine and bubbly: frozen berries! Better than ice cubes – these are pretty and delicious!}
{I enjoyed the little big things in life)
{I wrote a guest post on Girl with the Blue Bow about my talented, awesome brother}
{I kicked off ‘Get Fit August’ with my first run in ages (I nearly died) and started my new goal of biking a portion of my daily commute (12km of hills!)}
~~
“What’s ‘Get Fit August’?” you ask? Well, it’s the 31 days I have to get into a healthy eating and exercise routine, so I can look and feel great when I leave for New York Fashion Week on September 1st!!! My goal is not to lose a certain amount of weight, it’s simply to get into a healthy routine that makes me feel great.
During the my last, very stressful months of university, I gained some extra weight that I really didn’t need. I want to feel healthy in my body and comfortable in my clothes, so I hope that with some drastic diet and fitness changes {read: not eating unhealthy foods and exercising more than never} I will feel fabulous by the time I leave for New York.
Over the next month, I will share the healthy recipes I’m trying, the fitness routines I’m sweating through, and much more. A few very cool companies have offered to help me through this challenge, so I’ll also be sharing their awesome products with you.
I look forward to seeing what this challenge will do for my health, my confidence, and my happiness! I’ll hope you’ll root for me this month loves – I’ll need all the help I can get!
Just so you know: I love love love you. xxx!
{PS – Who else will be at the IFB Conference and Lucky FABB in September?! I would love to meet you there!!}
That white wine and berries looks delicious! Such a great idea
So awesome that you’re heading to NYC in Sept! You’re going to have a blast babe! And so cool that you’re partaking in Get Fit August. Looking forward to the recipes! You seem so happy! Yay!
