Voga in the park with Sure!

I had a really fun morning yesterday - I was invited to a Voga class in Merrion Square park in central Dublin by the cool folks over at Thinkhouse PR. Voga is an energetic mix of Yoga and Voguing to eighties tunes so we all had great fun throwing shapes and getting our pose on with House of Voga founder Juliet Murrell.

Typically for a seriously physical activity I dressed waaaaay too warm - (in my defence my window view was deceptive) so thankfully seeing as it was a Sure deodorant event some spritzing of their newest range helped me feel human in the sunshine. It is the new motion sense deodorant so it was fun to test it in such a sunny high energy environment. By the end I was pleasantly surprised as I love when spray deodorants have a fresh but mild scent so it doesn't take away from your perfume.
I will be truthful - I do my best to be active but today I'm feeling a bit achy after the high intensity Voga workout! In saying that if I could do it every Saturday morning I would! It hasn't launched in Ireland yet but I think so many people would relish the combination of a bit of craic teamed with a workout that gives real results. Juliet is an instructor to the stars & she's a favourite of Millie Mackintosh among many others. With Juliet's radiance I can understand why! She is literally my life goals. All the attendees were contemplating a dash to American Apparel to get on her leopard & polka dot print style wavelength!

It felt very cosmopolitan to be exercising in the park - like when you watch retro Sex & the City and Carrie is doing some trendy workout while doling out relationship advice. I tried to chat to my friend Rebecca of Haute so Fabulous on the mat across from me but I soon realised that it was easier to communicate via voguing instead! At the end we all felt like goddesses!

After all the activity I strolled home to Ballsbridge in the sunshine and went to my local 'The Bridge 1859' for a bit of brunch. A 'salmocado' was literally the brunch of champions! It's a halved English muffin with beef tomato, smoked salmon, poached eggs and just a little bit of avocado hollandaise with a flat white coffee. Literally heaven. I love a good loner lunch when you can have a feast and potter on your phone or read a magazine.
