Sunday Funday! First of 2015! ~ Vince Camuto Dacoma Pump in Hurricane Gray Pearl Patent

I've been spending the first few days of 2015 limping around. Haha! On Tuesday morning, I went back to the gym for my first real weight lifting session since about 2 weeks ago. I told myself throughout the whole session to take it easy, but I guess I still did a little too much too fast! Well, I started by doing 5 sets of dead lifts, which was probably not the best idea... but it felt easy at the time! The same day in the afternoon, I already started feeling sore though! So I knew that was bad news. For some reason, whenever I take a break longer than say... a week, I always get super sore when I do a lower body workout again. My upper body never gets that sore, no matter how heavy I think I'm going during my workouts. So anyway, my back and glutes really felt it for the next 2 days. Just when I started getting a little better, I did my second weights session which made everything 10 times worse - I think I actually tore up my hammies. So yeah, I've had trouble even doing simple things like walking around lol. There was no way I could have done anything involving lower body after that second workout. So I may have to just do upper body only for the next couple days.

Since I had so much rest time this week, I tried a new drink involving my bottle of St Germaine. This one is pretty refreshing! It's pureed cucumber, vodka, St Germaine, and topped with club soda. Good stuff!! I drank a couple of this on New Year's Eve, and both my bf and I fell asleep before the count down! Oops. That was a first. I guess we're old!

I thought my last meal of 2014 was pretty amazing though. I went to The Palm restaurant, which is a fancy steakhouse, and had the wasabi and panko crusted ahi tuna. Omg, so so good! The portion was huge too.

So, I guess I had a good New Years anyways! Hehe.

This week was unusually cold for us, so I got to take out some of my "cold weather" items! Happy to be sharing some slightly different outfits. =)

Monday 12/29 - Rest

Tuesday 12/30

What I did: I did the first weight session from month 3 of the Get Glutes program.

What I wore: Lorna Jane Sunrise tank and Sunrise bra under. Lululemon Live Natural Crop, and Nike Free 3.0s. Ombre on ombre!!!

As to and from, because it was sooo cold, I wore my Lululemon Outward Bound jacket in wish blue. I don't get to wear this beauty enough!

Wednesday 12/31 - Rest since I was SO sore already!

Thursday 1/1

What I did: Well, I had the day off, so I rolled out my butt and legs all morning. Felt way better afterwards so I thought I was ready for a workout again! Big mistake. But I did the second strength workout from my program, and added like 5 more exercises on top of it. At the end, my legs were like jello and I was still trying to do frog jumps lol.

What I wore: Lululemon Swiftly tank in heathered plum, with Alo Yoga Airbrushed Capri in arctic natural, and same Nike Free 3.0s as the last workout. First time wearing these tights since I bought them! I thought they were pretty good, although the knee/lower calf area rode up a little because it's not that tight fitting. Not a big deal, just messed up the look of the horizontal prints a little. =)

Lululemon Off The Mat jacket in black swan as to and from:

Friday 1/2 - Rest, didn't even think about trying to go to the gym lol.

Saturday 1/3 - Rest again! And again didn't even think about going to the gym. It was that bad! I did manage to get out of the house for brunch though, in heels no less! I was in so much pain lol. But the Bullet Proof latte I had was worth it. You know, I actually do like coffee with butter mixed in. But I'm too lazy to go find grass fed butter and make my own Bullet Proof coffee. However, I love LA for the fact that you can pay someone to make it for you at a hipster coffee spot lol. Though it ain't cheap at 5 bucks. I got it as a latte though, and with butter and coconut oil too. So I guess that's only a $1.5 premium on top of an equal sized Starbucks latte.

I wore my Michael Kors leather jacket, with this cashmere scarf I found in my drawer which my bf got me a couple years ago and I somehow completely forgot about. Joe's Jeans, and booties with fur! Kate Spade Carson bag.

These are my comfy heels! Warm too! I'm thinking of cutting off the attached bling so I can wear them more often.

Sunday 1/4

What I did: My hamstrings are still quite messed up, but I got tired of resting. So I went to the gym to only do upper body exercises. I used to do split body part weight lifting days, but all the workouts from Get Glutes are full body so I hadn't done that in a while!

What I wore: Lorna Jane Radah tank in hot flamingo marl with Lorna Jane Clover bra in viola marl under. Lululemon wunder under crop in silverspoon pique, and Nike Free 5.0 TR Fit 4 shoes in fusion pink/atomic mango.
