Get Fit, Stay Fit


For all those upperclassmen high schoolers out there, prom will creep up on you faster than you can shove three cookies in your mouth, which in my case is alarmingly fast. In last-minute response, I'm going through the inevitable "fitness cramming phase," where I try helplessly to sculpt at least a two pack (in replace of my one, jelly-like "ab"), cut down dessert to less than three times a day (oof), and eat leaves. I came across this fantastic workout vid on Hulu. It aligns perfectly with this whole new mindset I have: I'm trying to adopt the philosophy of a destination spa. That is, to practice mindfulness and wellness while connecting the mind, body, and spirit. I read an article all about it in Conde Nast Traveler and I am eating that shit up just like I eat up fudge brownies. Core Fusion seems deceivingly simple at first, but once you actually do it, well, let's just say that Liz and Fred are ten times more legit than their first warm-up exercise of a flailing arm march....

As I go through this fitness craze (I'm really hoping it's more than a craze though), look out for more healthy living tips coming up! -says a girl who considers a hoagie, chips, and two cookies a "relatively healthy" meal.

P.S. sorry I haven't posted in over a century, blogging has become secondary as I'm starting to realize school takes priority if I want to get into college.

I love that DVF loves Roxy

Diane Von Furstenburg collaborating with Roxy??? That's the best thing that's happened since white bread. Holy cow the perfection and bliss of these yet-to-come bikinis makes me squeal. The wait is unbearable. Read all about it here on the Roxy Blog. Without a doubt Roxy is my favorite brand of all-time, and I can't stress enough, or continuously mention so in my posts, that an undying dream of mine is and will forever remain to be a Roxy girl. That would be the day.

*Saturday Special* It's Electric.

If you want an easy energy rush to put you in the right mindset this weekend, this mix is for you! Just a quick burst of electronic chill to turbocharge yourself. Personally, I'm feeling great. A blizzard just swept through town and in tradition of winter comfort food I had myself some homemade chili for lunch. A happy tummy, a winter wonderland, two cozy blankets, and some good music equals a perfect, lazy Saturday.

Trend: Chelsea Boots





Perfect for casual looks, and can be dressed up if need be. I could see these beauts paired effortlessly with sleek jeggings, polished cutoffs, or black jeans. This would be a really good investment buy, right? I should splurge the 140 bucks...
