Girl Crush: Annalynne Mccord, help me!

Hey my lovely readers,
how are you doing today?
I'm good except the weather is so urgh and annoying today, its not cold not hot not sunny not urm.... unsunny (?)  etc.....

oh welllll...
As most of you all know 90210 is one of my favourite shows
and one of my favourite characters is the ever-so pretty yet bitchy rich blonde girl, yes you all know who i'm talking about..Naomi, if you look above at the VERY old season 1 series picture you can see Naomi is the 2nd to the left..
Even though i love 90210 and no i am not a lesbian, i find Naomi so pretty and her body is just WOW. in real life you hear that some of the characters are too thin and are ordered to gain wait, such as Annie and Silver who are still stunning yet:
but then you see Naomi/ANNALYNNE Mccord who is not too thin but still toned and thin.
1st serom the firason Annalynne has lost wait , she use to be slightly curvier, as you can see left, the first is a season 1 photoshoot for the show and the bikini one is from season one screen shot. Ok no she has not lost wait she has TONED UP. Since there are a lot of bikini seens in this show you see how all their bodies look and Naomi's is definitely is the best. Even though in the first season her body was still great it has improved..

In the 2nd season she looks like this:
(middle) here though she looks a bit too thin, look at her neck. bleurgh. but yet still healthy..in the current season though this is wear i get jealous:

btw i love the pink bikini in the middle. 

I would probably never achieve this amount of amazingness yet i can try..As you know i'm trying to lose weight and fat. I really want to get a few more fitness DVD's currently we only have one its called like the Jillien michael's 30 Day Shred. I find this soo hard its 20 minutes long. ok not THAT bad on the timing but the circuit is so hard, there is a warmup then 3 circuits of a few minutes of strength, cardio and ab-workout. ITS SO HARD.  no offence sis, who mainly uses this, IT SUCKS. yes i did say i'm gonna try doing daily, am i no. it's too extreme...i've been looking on amazon for some good ones and i'm really interested in Davina's ones, Davina Mccalls ones, she has a few but i'm only interested in 2:
Davina Fit and Davina Body Buff.
The routines are thirty minutes long but appaz quite fun. 
DAVINA FIT:
Davina Fit comes with 4 different routines all 30 minutes long so you can change it when your bored, these are:
Aerobics Fit – This is a brilliant non-stop fat-burning fest with lots of cool new moves.
Top Fit – Fabulous toning exercises for your bingo wings and other flabby bits up top.
Bottom Fit – Squat-tastic! This workout will help you to get gorgeous legs.
Kick Fit – Kick and punch your way to fitness, it is therapeutic!
Yoga Stretch – Cool-down and elongate your muscles at the same time.
.(cool down not routine)

this sounds quite good because where i would mainly one to do Aerobics Fit and Kick Fit when i'm not in the mood i can always change...the good thing about amazon is it is cheap so i can get a few vids when i do come to buying...

DAVINA BODY BUFF:
this comes with 3 pre-made routines, 30 mins long and then a variable amount of other exercises to target special areas:
Buff Warm up – You always have to do this before any workout! The next two whole body workouts are 30 minutes long and can be used on their own or with another routine.
Buff Cardio – High energy aerobics with lots of fat-burning intervals plus 5 minutes squeezing those abs.
Buff Boxing – A high intensity workout including 5 minutes working those abs again.
Then to target your specific areas:
Buff Legs and Core – A twenty minute workout aimed at shaping up your legs and strengthening your core muscles.
Buff Arms – A fifteen minute routine using weights to buff up your arms, you can use a bottle of water in each hand, but I would recommend that you invest in some 1 or 2 kilogramme weights, which will last you for life.
Buff Abs – This starts with a basic 5 minute abs routine followed by a tougher 5 minutes for the more adventurous!
Buff Stretch – An effective stretch to cool down, with the option of doing the shorter standing up version or you can add on a further 5 minutes with a yoga-style stretch too. 

this one also sounds good....

Again though thirty minutes can be a BIT TOO MUCH and i found a cheap company called 10 Minute Solution, and obvs each routine is 10 mins long. The good thing is they have like 20 different dvd's to do different things. There are four i want and these are:
(10 Minute Solution): Dance Your Body Thin
Blast off the Belly Fat
Quick Tummy Toners
Carb and Calorie burner

again i will list all the info on these

btw on all of these there are 5(!) different 10 min exercises...On dance your body thin there is:

Smooth and sexy moves, - lots of strutting your bum around with this section!
Dance toner - studio moves in this dance based toning workout
Get Fit Club mix - club inspired moves!
Cardio dance party - upbeat cardio section
Ballet sculpt - ballet inspired moves. 

These all sound quite good, then moving onto:
this has: 
Flat Belly Fast - quick abs work
Pilates Perfect Abs - strengthens your core
Belly Fat Blaster - short cardio section aimed to blast fat from your stomach
Ab ripper - different ab exercise to tone your tummy
Six Pack abs - ab crunches etc..
this has:

Crunch-Free Abs - this involves aerobic stretches on a mat. The exercises start off simply, and each set has options to make it more strenuous for more intermediate exercisers
Yoga Abs - balance moves of a fairly intermediate level
Bikini Belly - this is aerobics of the up and at 'em kind. She teaches a couple of moves at a time, and strings them all together, ending up with 15 different moves, and it's definitely not for beginners. I got lost and tangled and just wanted to get a plate of chips. Even she was sweating by the end and, actually, with a bit of practise, this will be my favourite section as you can truly feel it working as you're working
Ab and Waist Definer - more aerobic stretching on a mat. These are more complicated than the Crunch-Free Abs moves and require a lot more balance and a higher level of fitness.
Sexy, Sporty Abs - done on a mat, a huge variety of crunches


SLOW and STEADY BURN: A fun and basic low impact aerobics. A good starting point.
CARB KILLER: cardio kickboxing, punches and kicks.
POWER BLAST: Cardio with intervals of low and high intensity moves such as jumping moves and sports type drills, such as skiing and running through tires. This is hardest section.
INTERVAL BURN:This segment deffinatly takes you back to the basics you squat, lundge and crunch to tone your whole body. Also ab work.
METABOLISM BOOSTER: Total body weight training segment. Scuplt your body and build muscle. 


Are there any videos you like?  have you tried any of these?

do you want to join me on my Athletic journey?

Starting off with natural alarm waking me up at 8, staying in bed for an hour doing multiple of things such as checking time/facebook/blog/youtube on my computer then reading. Then i was bored so sat with my sister till i left to go out for lunch in Camden Stables, were fun and goths always is. i went with ma mere, ma soeur - different 1 and ma soeur ami. We ate cheap chinese and then walked round till boredom. and then i came home and rested, aka sat in bed reading for 2 and a half hours till i missed my computer - downstairs - it was the longest i had been with out touching my Macbook yet. so i trudged downstairs and got it, then told my mum tht in exactly 20 mins scare my sister and her friend who were watching the first Saw movie, a favourite of mine and i new wat part they were up to, i timed it perfectly. the next thing you know u heard: AAAAAH. and now i am here..tired, with a strawberry in my mouth. cba to move my jaw, i always have stuff in my mouth - habbit if its thumb nail NOT THUMB, just the nail, sleeves of hoodies, pencil case zip, book edge, bracelt...so here i am eating a HUGE strawb doing a haul shall we start with books?

one book: Beach Blondes by Katherine Applegate was cancelled boohoo.so heres what arrived..
from r-l, aka l-r in real ife...the order im reading them in...

-L.a Candy by Lauren Conrad.
Blurb:
hot clubs, cute guys, designer....everything. Nineteen year old Jane Roberts cab't wait to start living it up. She may be in L.A for an internship but Jane has plans to play as hard as she works, and has enlisted her BFF Scarlett to join the fun. When Jane and Scarlett are approached by a producer who wants them to be on his new series, a ''reality version of Sex and The City,'' they can hardly believe their luck. Their own show? YES PLEASE!  Soon Jane is TV's hottest star. Fame brings more than she ever imagined possible for a girl from Santa Barbara - free designer clothes, the choicest tables at the most exclusive clubs, invites to Hollywood premieres and she's lapping up the VIP treatment with her eclectic entourage of new pals. But those same friends who are always up for wild night out are also out for a piece of Jane's spotlight. In a city filled with people chasing after their dreams, it's not long before Jane wakes up to the reality that everyone wants something from her, and nothing is what it seems to be.
                 
READ - YES, finished.
Rating - 4/5 - i wish i could see more of Gabi and Scarlett in it....

- Betrayed by P.C and Kristen Cast.
Blurb:
All any of us could talk about was Chris's disappearance and how bizarre it was that he had last been seen so close to the House of Night. I didn't want to believe it. Bu everything inside me said that the kid would be found, but he would be found DEAD...Things seem to be going pretty well for Zoey Redbird. She's settled in at the House of Night finishing school and is coming to terms with her incredible new powers. it all seems too good to be true. And guess what? Someone has begun murdering human teenagers, and all evidence points to the vampyres at Zoey's school. Which means her first assignment as the leader of the Dark Daughters is finding out which one of her classmates or -gulp- teachers is a killer. Sigh. And she thought her boyfriends (yes: plural) were going to be her biggest problem this year....

Read - Yes, finished
Rating - 3/5, good but connects the 1st book to the 3rd - sounds mean but i wish more went on bUT soo sad.

- Chosen by P.C Cast and Kristen Cast
Blurb:
I guess it had gone okay with Stevie Rae. I mean, she had agreed to meet me tomorrow. And she hadn't tried to bite me. which was a plus. Of course, the whole trying to eat the street person thing was highly disturbing......Zoey's best friend, Stevie Rae is undead - in an ewww zombie kind of way, not in a cool vampyre kind of way. She's struggling to retain her humanity and Zoey doesn't have a clue how to help. But she does know that anything they discover must be kept a secret. Unfortunately, trust has become a rare commodity. Sinister forces are at work at the house of the night, where the line between friend and enemy is becoming dangerously blurred.

Read: YES, finished
Rating - 5/5, i wish Loren wasn't on Neferets side and Erik didn't have to a) be soo damn hot b) be such a jerk to Zoey.

- Peace, Love & Baby Ducks by Lauren Myracle (haha like miracle)
Blurb: 
Wealth. Privilege. That is Carly's life and guess what. It's getting on her nerves. Carly is ready to ditch the Southern princess act and become real. The thing is, she's always counted on her little sister, Anna, to love and support her - and tell her how right she is. But when Anna turns 'hot' over the course of a summer, everything goes weird. Suddenly Anna's swimming in the deep end with the big girls while Carly watched from the kiddie pool, alone. Carly's always relied on her sister, but now everything is different and she's not sure she likes it.

Read: 1/2 way
Rating - so far 5/5 i love how i can relate and how unique it is to have a book where someone looks up to there YOUNGER sister.

- Sweethearts by Sara Zarr
Blurb: 
As children, Jennifer Harris and Cameron Quick were both social outcasts. They were also each other's only friend. So when Cameron disappeared without warning, Jennifer thought she'd lost the one person who would ever understand her. Now in high school, Jennifer has been transformed. Known as Jenna, she is popular, happy and dating - everything 'Jennifer' couldn't be. But she stiill can't shake the memory of her long-lost friend. When Cameron suddenly reappears, they  both are confronted with memories of their shared past and the drastically different paths their life have taken.

Read: No
Rating - ...
- Our little secret: the TRUE story of a Teenage Killer and the SILENCE of a Small New England Town - Kevin Flynn
Blurb:
 For twenty years Daniel Paquette's murder in New Hampshire went unsolved. It remained a secret between two high school friends until Eric Windhurst's arrest in 2005. What was revealed was a crime born of adolescent passion between Eric and Daniel's stepdaughter, Melanie- redefining the meaning of loyalty, justice, and revenge.

Read: No

How to: Use Lush Dirty Tooth Tabs

Hey again,
before i start can i do a quick shoutout to my friends, IZZY, VIVI, JEANETTE(!), ELLE, INIGA AND MELINA..lusm

ok moving on, people loved my how to use Lush Face Masks so i thought i would do another How To, using Lush's new Dirty toothtabs from their new Dirty Collection.

This is what lush says about their new collection:
Dirty was a classic range in B Never Too Busy To Be Beautiful for its crisp and fresh spearmint notes, clean burst of salt air and herbal fragrance. Simon scented each product with a different accord of the finished Dirty perfume. Layer the products and build the perfume back up again! Try it on your skin and you won't be sorry

I love the shower gel in the collection but currently my shower is broken so i didn't want it just sit there..
I dislike brushing my teeth, even though i do since i'm not a big fan of artificial mint taste and sometimes it is too strong...SO when i saw lush had something to CLEAN YOUR TEETH WITH i had to buy it, TOOTHY TABSso i did. 

Lush says:
Give your mouth a blast of freshness before a night (or day) of Dirty fun. These innovative, solid toothpaste tabs will clean your teeth and leave your mouth minty fresh.

i SAY:
they do not need toothpaste after, yay, but they do have an awful sodium taste to it with mint undertones. but there fun to use and for £2 for 40 of them its good, i don't use them everyday, maybe 3 times a week. 

This is how u use them:






Step by Step,
- grab the box
- open it and dispense uno toothy tab
- wet your toothbrush and put the tab in your mouth and bite
- brush teeth normally.

TADAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

now for an ugly picture of my open smile.



Please do not diss my pale skin, pjamas, messy hair and no makeup :) oo and my bad smile.

Coming up is a COOOOOLLLECTIVE HAUL, off to go sit in the sun and go to camden LUSM

currently i am reading: Peace, Love nd Baby Ducks...which is one of the cutest books i've read well the first 50 pages i've read so far( cut me some slack, i only started it today) but already i feel like i can relate to Carly, the main girl...who always has to live up to her older YOUNGER sister, whose hotter,bigger boobed, popular...her emotions towards her parents are soo desperately malignant.
