February 21, 2016

so I am starting a new segment, called an Update on Kate where I will do a monthly update on my life, and I will share some recent pictures

y’all ready? lets go:

so I just finished basketball season, and now I have starting taking art classes after school and I am really having an adventure with that!

I went to winter formal on february 19th, and I WAS IN LOVE WITH HOW I LOOKED (not meaning to sound in love with myself)

my squad and I on splash mountain, (this wasn’t the big drop you can tell because we are all smiley still and not screaming) and her phone survived! it didn’t get wet and w still got that cute selfie!

IMG_4779

and finally I will explain, I have been seeing this cup online and I was way too obsessed with it! I loved star wars so much, especially BB8, so all day I hunted for this cup, and when I got it I was way too excited, and my friends decided that they wanted to snapchat it!

and btw:

My Favorite Yoga Gear

February 18, 2016

hey guys!

so tuesday i posted about how I am doing with yoga so far, so I decided that I wanted to post about my favorite yoga gear , so lets get started:

my mat:

Screen Shot 2016-02-15 at 3.02.55 PM

Gaiam Citron Sundial Yoga Mat : This is a really comfortable mat, and you know its not as expensive as the mats from lululemon, but still really cute and still really nice without that hefty price.

my favorite shirts:

Screen Shot 2016-02-15 at 3.30.12 PM

nike dry-fit cool strappy: very loose fitting, perfect fit, especially when it gets a little warm in the studio, its happens to just work perfectly for yoga even though its for running.

Screen Shot 2016-02-16 at 9.42.21 PM

athleta  fastest track tee : although I have this shirt in red, I love it so much! Its a perfect fit, just tight enough for you to able to move and twist well.

 

my favorite bottoms: 

Screen Shot 2016-02-16 at 9.50.20 PM

athleta sonar capri pants: so basically these are the best pants ever, since they are this sonar fabric, they are literally the best things known to man, never again buying different leggings, I have found my pair.

Screen Shot 2016-02-16 at 9.54.26 PM

forever 21 active striped-side shorts: now some people hate doing yoga in shorts, i understand that, but sometimes its way too hot to deal with putting on and taking those leggings off when your legs are sweaty, these shorts are a great alternative.

so I hope that you enjoy this lil post, and please comment if you have any yoga gear that you would like to share with me!

XOXO

My Yoga Experience – So Far

February 16, 2016

hey guys!

so as many of you guys know, I am currently taking a yoga class at my school and its fantastic!

the teacher is great, its like a yoga class from a yoga studio its very nice! I am really progressing even though its only been like 6 classes I just love the classes.

I am learning so much, and I am really enjoying the quiet meditation time I have during the day to just be low-key and just to be one with myself.

I am trying inversions slightly and I am really starting to make progress! getting closer to that handstand! I can do it i know!

hope you enjoy this post!
I will be sharing my favorite yoga outfits on thursday!

MY PLANNER!

February 7, 2016

hey guys!

so today I wanted to share with you guys my planner, and how I organize, it and why I love it and why I think you will love it too!

so without further ado, lets get things started!

the planner: Erin Condren , Geodes Life Planner in Turquoise 

Screen Shot 2016-02-06 at 3.43.51 PM

and it was personalized with my first and last initials! how cute!

and inside …

IMG_5091

there are always beautiful insides!

what I love most about this planner:

  • different color every month!
  • I love the layout, how each day has adequate spacing, unlike other planners that make saturday and sunday share one little space
  • I LOVE the little space for notes and the “thankful thought” in the corner, which I love to look back and think about what my life was like when I look back.
  • there are sticker pages in the back, with stickers like “hair appt @” and “concert”, “vacation” or “party” and blank stickers to fill in your own important events!
  • the beautiful covers that can be personalized with your initials whole name or what ever that you want!

anyway! thank you very much Erin Condren for creating this beautiful planner as well as so many other beautiful products!

please comment back to me if you have any questions about the planner, or how I use it!

thanks!

xoxo
