Fitness & Fashion Talk - Vivre Activewear

Sylvia, founder of Vivre Activewear has been really kind to pass me some of her pieces to try and I have loved every single piece from Vivre! I know getting workout attire can be really expensive in Singapore and to me, looking good in and out of the gym is important. So, I need to share some of my favorite pieces from Vivre because they are affordable and of great quality! I don't only wear them for yoga but for HIIT sessions, as well as weight training since I workout in the gym everyday.

Fashion Talk – ShopperBoard

Friends and family who knows me well enough knows I LOVE to shop. And I can spend hours on my phone browsing through my shopping tabs (because I’m always outdoors) when I’m alone. I open up to 15 tabs at one go sometimes I don’t even remember what were the items I was eyeing, I got so frustrated and finally gave up, until Shopperboard came along!

About ShopperBoard 
Backed by Singapore's Media Development Authority (MDA) and a renowned Japanese venture capitalist firm, ShopperBoard is a social shopping platform.

A Pinterest-style social network that is 100% focused on shopping, shoppers can save products they love from any online store and organize them all in one place — like a one-stop collection of all their shopping carts arranged in a visually appealing manner.


Window shopping is brought to another level and on the go by letting users discover other popular hashtags, stores, and even shoppers whose style they admire.


Main issue 
So my main problem was this, I open too many tabs at one time and more often than not, I left my browser app with many opened tabs, which caused my mobile device to lag and battery to run out quickly.


Solution
Earlier this month,I was introduced to ShopperBoard, which then solved my main problem because it looks like pinterest and the most awesome feature in the in-app browser!

Now’s the exciting part because ShopperBoard is giving away a $100 H&M Shopping Voucher just by window shopping! Here’s what you need to do:

Health Talk - Infuusa

Coming from someone like me who doesn't have the habit of drinking water regularly during the day, Infuusa came in handy when I was sent the 2 different flavours to try!

What is Infuusa?
Infuusa was started with the simple goal of creating drinks that taste great, are natural and are good for health. Wei, the founder, who is a product designer by day and spin instructor by night was frustrated by the lack of choice in exercise hydration while teaching class; there wasn’t anything besides plain water or sugary sports drinks. To solve his own problem, he created a caffeine-free cold-brewed tea that could be made easily with just cold water. Just pop a sachet into a water bottle, shake and drink in minutes. This method of making tea or infusions – is known as cold-brewing. Cold brewing not only better preserves antioxidants; it also gives the resulting infusion a sweeter taste compared to hot brewing. It's perfect for on-the-go hydration for me at the gym and I conveniently replaced a good portion of my daily water intake with Infuusa!



The Quadberry Flavour
With four different types of berries and apples, this combination gives you a powerful anti-oxidant punch while you hydrate during exercise, or at any time of the day. Just pop a sachet into a bottle, give it a good shake, and let the flavours infuse naturally within minutes.

Ingredients: Apples, hibiscus petals, elderberries, blackberry leaves, rose hip shells, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries
Lemongrass Ginger Flavour
Lemongrass Ginger contains zesty lemongrass with a touch of ginger to spice things up - absolutely refreshing when consumed cold after a yoga or pilates class. This is also a perfect remedy to soothe aching muscles, Gingerol, the active ingredient in ginger, has anti-inflammatory properties It's also 100% organic.

Ingredients: Organic ginger, organic lemongrass,organic liquorice root, organic spearmint
I started with quad berry flavour and love it so much I bring it with me everywhere I go!

I drink my second sachet (Lemongrass Ginger) after my workout so it helps to soothe my muscle soreness and also assisted with my bloating problem too!
