so disgusting.

every time i drink a fountain soda - i get insanely sick. like vom-ing sick. (sorry tmi). i am pretty convinced they are poisoning me. i've been hearing a lot of banter recenty about bacteria that can be nestling in the plastic pipes that the soda or tap beer runs through - so then it it's your drink...gross. and oh look...IT'S TRUE (CBS)   Could you be guzzling down germs? Research from  Hollins University, in Roanoke, Va.,  finds you very well could be, if your drink came from a cafeteria or restaurant soda fountain. Researchers tested 30 soda fountains and analyzed them for microbial contamination. They found many of the beverages from them were contaminated with bacteria. Coliform/fecal bacterium was detected in 48 percent of them. The potentially deadly bacteria E. coli was found in 11 percent of the tested drinks. Dr. Alanna Levine, a primary care physician, said on  "The Early Show,"  contaminated fountain drinks could be a potential health thre

I’m always looking to “Shape Magazine” for new fitness tips and trends – not that you should get trendy with your fitness routine, but it’s always good to mix it up and challenge your muscles. Then is saw this picture of Kelly Osbourne and forgot that I was looking for some tummy tighteners. She looks amazing - and I'm selfishly really happy she decided to remove some of her tattoos. Good for her!!! I prefer to sweat it out on the elliptical for 45 minutes and then do 15 minutes of abs or stretching. However, with the holiday season in tow – I feel like I’m floundering. Even though I haven’t put on the post binging pudge I’ve developed a complex about my weight - which is why I’ve taken to doing planks on the office floor. If I get the urge to call myself fat I drop for 60-seconds and look like a quivering lil biatch that I am.(LIGHTEN UP!!!! Working out does not make an eating disorder fatty!) My aunt (a spin instructor and hard body aficionado) said planks are the best TOTAL body

missoni + toywatch. retailing for $445 - beautiful and weird. i think the missioni print wrapped around one's wrist would get really dirty - really fast. but it's a sweet idea.

thanks to you.

Something has to be said for the 'wackness' that is living as a 20-something. Like drinking a coors light, after an hour of cardio, while eating organic spinach ravioli that cost $9. I don't feel old enough to care. Should I start worrying about the serious stuff - like when my dad is going to make me pay for my own cell phone bill and car insurance? Though things tend to get a bit silly - I have a beautiful life. Are they things I still crave - more freedom, more adventure - well absolutely - I didn't want to see more of this world I'd consider myself dead. I love my family, I love my friends, I love the boy that snuggles me into his warm chest every morning (even though he is making me watch "American Dad" right now). I'm constantly surprised by the beautiful  people in my life - like last night Adam asked, "I was thinking how many groomsman can I have? Since we should have the same amount..." and then we both went through who we wi

A great article by stylist.com on brunette makeup! If you're a   brunette , you're in luck when it comes to choosing makeup. Brunettes   have the most flexible hair shade to work with because so many colors complement darker locks. The key is to balance that darkness with light-reflecting, warm makeup. Otherwise, your face can look pale and washed out. Brunettes can also get away with   very little makeup   during the day. At night, a smoky eye with black or gray eyeliner can be especially striking. "A   brunette gal   has the option to amp up the exotic feel of her dark hair with strong eyes or lips, or soften with neutrals and pale shades," says celebrity stylist   Brett Freedman . Plums, navy blues, and pewters work well for these dark-haired mavens. Blush is also a must to reduce the contrast between light skin and dark hair. When choosing makeup, the key is to match it to your specific shade of brown. Deep, espresso brunettes:   You can pull off

caroline sieber.

to me caroline siber isn't your normal cookie cutter looking fashoin girl - she is a london based stylist and brand ambassador for chanel. she's thin - leggy - and beatiful. but exudes a precise put togetherness that a lot of women lack. everything she wears mends itself together in a perfectly cultured way - each wrinkle looks in place. effortlessly perfect.

i saw this post on le love today about 'other gender best friends' and it made me instantly think of my william. i've picked him up at 4 in the morning from scottsdale when he was belig. i've cradled him as he cried about an ex girlfriend on my balcony, on a water mattress, eating a popsicle. he bought me a table my last night out at american junkie - and proceeded to barf under said the table. we have the same judgmental type of humor - and would rudely ask girls why they were at bars when they were (not really) pregnant. we sound (and slightly stalked) a super slutty girl with glasses would would go home with a different guy each night we drank 25 cent beers at barneys. we cheer each other on and i bitch him out when he needs it most. i asked him to be in my (future) wedding and he said "f that noise - i'm a dude - bro". i miss him and wish hermosa beach wasn't so far away from la crosse. this one is for you willz:  This one also goes out to al

stepping with glitter.

I'm tall - 5'9" and sometimes heels just get in the way of my nights out. While suede over the knee boots and soft leather riding boots are wardrobe staples this holiday season I plan on jazzing up my skinny jeans with some sparkle in my step. I love the idea of wearing a masculine shoe, like brogues, with glitter. I'm all about a style oxymoron. Pour La Victore - $195 Tory Burch - $235 Deena and Ozzy $48 Asos $34.50 Tory Burch $260
