Fitness is not only about the physical aspects of actually “working out”, but nowadays, you have to look good while sweating. Athleisure wear is making its way out of the gym and into daily life. Women are wearing leggings and yoga pants for everything from shopping, lunching, and partying with friends, to date night with the boyfriend or a girl’s night out. As much as I love the idea of athleisure wear, I’m looking for comfortable and stylish workout clothes, like the ones at Fabletics. Here’s what I’m wishing for right now… Winn Mid Rise Short Boyshorts Olive Capri Salar Leggings […]
Curly Hair, Don’t Care… But I Do Care!
I love my naturally curly hair, but sometimes I’m not “in love” with my curls! There are days when I want to go “G.I. Jane” and shave it all off. Not only is my hair curly, and sometimes unruly, but it is mousy reddish-brown, thinning (thanks to being in surgical menopause), and graying at the roots.

You’ll need to start […]
The Beautiful Side of Nascar
Nascar is popular because of the drivers who race, week after week, in hopes to not only win that week’s race, but to ultimately be crowned Nascar champ at the end of the season. But behind some of my favorite Nascar drivers is a supportive woman who are popular in their own right. So in honor of today’s Daytona 500, the biggest race of the racing season, I thought I’d introduce you to some of the beautiful women behind some of the NASCAR drivers. Samantha Busch is married to Kyle Busch, driver of the #18 M&Ms car. Model Ingrid Vandebosch is married […]
A Mini-Roundup from NYFW
I love fashion, and I love New York City. So it would just make sense that I would love New York Fashion Week, even though I’ve never been to NYFW or to a fashion show. NYFW is specifically for industry insiders, media (newspapers, magazines, and television), models and celebrities, and select VIBs (very important bloggers).
