Shape Meet and Tweet 2015 {Event Recap}

Posted on January 11, 2016 | Filed Under: Fitness, Local Events | Tags: Shape Magazine, Shape Meet & Tweet | 2 Comments

My event recap of the Shape Meet & Tweet conference that took place last year is a little late. However you know that saying, better late than never! You'll recall that I wrote about the Skin Smart panel last year, which featured Dr. Katie Rodan of Rodan + Fields, as well as Sonya Dakar who is the founder of Sonya Dakar Skin Clinic & Skincare. Now here I am finally getting a chance to write about the rest of the day's events! After … [Read more...]

SweatSTR – A Scarf & Towel Reinvented!

Posted on December 1, 2015 | Filed Under: Fitness, Product Reviews | Tags: athleisure, fitness wear, SweatSTR | 8 Comments

Now that the weather is getting chilly here in Los Angeles, I've been layering up when I get dressed to workout. I've discovered a new way to wipe the sweat during jogging or working out that is a combination scarf AND towel. That fitness product is called SweatSTR (sounds like sweater but with an "ST" within it). The idea is that you wear it out jogging or as part of your workout attire. With athleisure on the rise, it seems like the perfect … [Read more...]

#ShapeMeetAndTweet Event: Skin Smart Edition

Posted on November 13, 2015 | Filed Under: Fitness, Local Events | Tags: Rodan and Fields, Shape Magazine blogger event, Shape Meet and Tweet, Sonya Dakar | 3 Comments

If you follow my Instagram, then you may recall that last month I attended the Shape Meet & Tweet event in Santa Monica. It was held at the beautiful Annenberg Community Beach House! The event was awesome & I just knew that it would be since I had attended a similar event two years ago. There was SO much content & fabulousness happening in the 2015 event that I have to break down my recap into sections. This first one will be about … [Read more...]

Hip Appeal – Stylish Hip Wrap Fanny Pack

Posted on September 20, 2015 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: Hip Appeal fanny pack, jogging belt, running waist pack | 2 Comments

When I go jogging at my local park or participate in 5k races, I like to keep my hands free. Sure, I might run with hand wrapped around my cell phone but that's because I listen to my tunes or occasionally take pictures during runDisney races. However it sure is nice to be able to stash my car keys, a few bucks in cash, a driver's license or credit card in a waist pack. Call it what you want - fanny pack, jogging belt or waist pack, they all … [Read more...]

It’s #Time2Climb with #RiseNation

Posted on September 1, 2015 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: Rise Nation, VersaClimber, vertical climber group fitness class | 6 Comments

When I first heard about Rise Nation, I was a little intimidated by the concept but that didn’t stop me from wanting to try it. At Rise Nation, you are working out in a group fitness setting on a VersaClimber, which is a vertical climber machine. After reading the description, I realized that it’s only 30 minutes, so surely I can hang in there for half an hour. As a new customer, my first session is free, so I was ready to rise to the … [Read more...]
