Support CASA, Look Hot. Win. Win.


It’s only been a couple of weeks, but I’m loving my internship at SwimSpot- a company that sells women’s swimwear. Why do I love it? Two reasons. I get to look at cute little bikinis like this Reef Stargazer Sweetheart Bikini all day but more importantly, SwimSpot loves to give back. Loves to support our local community. And we certainly have fun doing it. My sorority – Kappa Alpha Theta – and I are staging a fundraiser event this upcoming Tuesday (September 27th) at the Sandhu Conference Center on Chapman University Campus from 6:30-10:00p.m. Sales of admission and raffle tickets for KATWalk, our annual charity fashion show, will help raise much needed proceeds for CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates). CASA matches up young, professional mentors with foster children having to deal with legal issues. The mentors help provide the youth with a more confident voice in court as they go through an emotionally trying and arduous process.

OVEN ROASTED TOMATOES....YUM!!!


Oven roasted tomatoes are such a great add to so many dishes...pasta, salad, pasta salad, sandwiches, bruschetta, hummus, pizza, risotto, paella...I could go on and on. I hadn't made any myself for a long time until I bought Gwyneth Paltrow's cookbook, My Father's Daughter (I am also a big fan of her blog GOOP).

I FINISHED P90X AS A VEGAN


I am actually really proud of myself because a little over a week ago I finished Tony Horton's 90 day P90X workout series!!!! I wholeheartedly recommend this workout program I did not follow the nutrition plan because I am happy with my current nutrition. I did however find a great resource for those who are vegan and want to follow the P90X nutrition plan. Beach Body has a newsletter article specifying how to follow the nutrition plan as a vegan (click here for the article).

Pizza and Paintball!!!


A few weeks ago my son turned 10! It is hard to believe that he is already 10 years old. For his party we played paintball at Hollywood Sports Park (so fun!). My husband found out that Hollywood Sports Park has special paintballs that are 50 caliber and about half the size of standard paintballs, so they do not hurt as much (but I can attest to the fact that they DO hurt, but not too bad). The boys had so much fun and so did the adults!

  • Look Good, Feel GoodFall is finally here! Time to dig up those scarves, boots, and cardigans buried deep inside your closet. In terms of fashion, this is definitely my favorite time of year – I especially love the bold pops of color that are trending this season. And of course, the layers! But unfortunately, being bundled up in sweaters and coats doesn’t quite give me the motivation to work out. I won’t be sporting a bikini any time soon anyways so what’s the point, right? Wrong! We’re all aiming for that perfect beach body once Spring rolls along, so why not start working for it now? Getting toned and fit is a gradual process—although I’m sure we all wish it would happen overnight. Swimsuit season will be coming around the corner before you know it, so save yourself from the intense dieting and exercise the week before spring break and start now!
