Lauren Conrad's Stay Slim Secrets!
Lauren Conrad is on the cover of Shape Magazine looking quite fit and trim...sure they probably airbrushed a bit but probably nothing compared to the Kelly Clarkston cover...Lauren has worked hard for her body and it shows. She shared some of her stay slim secrets with Shape magazine...
Burning off the Love Layer
Lauren like many girls out there gained a few pounds while dating her new boyfriend Kyle Howard something about new love just packs on the pounds. Now Lauren works out with her man...
"We like doing outdoor stuff: tennis, bike riding, kayaking, stand up surfing, hiking in the canyons of LA"
Now only if I could get my man to work out with me like that!
Make your workout Fit You!
Lauren is a busy girl with her new "affordable" clothing line coming out and doing a book tour for her new book L.A. candy...(which I really want to read, I love books like that they are my #1 guilty pleasure.) so Lauren needs a workout to fit her needs. With the help of her trainer Jarett Del Bene, she came up with a DIY workout routine.
"Basically it's a circuit routine I can do anywhere-in my hotel room when I'm traveling or at home in my living room." says Lauren. "There are just five moves: squats, sit ups, push ups, couch dips-where I balance on the edge of a couch and lower my hips, then press up-and planks. I do 20 reps of the first four moves, then hold the plank for 20 seconds. I go through the entire circuit routine six times. No equipment required."
Curb your Cravings
Lauren is focused on eating healthier these days. She gets plenty of fruit, her favorites are watermelon and grapefruit; organic salad greens; and lean protein like turkey, tuna, and beans.
"I've found when all I'm eating is really fresh, healthy foods, I stop craving pizza burgers."
Food is my biggest weakness if I could only eat good I would have a six pack for sure!
One for the Ladies ;)
A friend of mine forwarded me an email this morning which at first I thought it was one of those typical forward emails with angels and prayers and send this to so many people or you will have bad luck... Man I hate those, I always feel like I have to send them or I will get bad luck! But I hate sending them out. Well this email was different it kind of mocked the other ones, instead of pretty little angels it had a HOT guy dressed as an angel and a little saying...check it out :)

This Hot Mamma has been known to stir up some controversy lately. But whether you like her or not one thing is for sure...she is beautiful! Recently Ms. Alba shared with InStyle magazine some of her favorite beauty products.
Revlon Double Twist Mascara
"It gives crazy long lashes. I scrape the brush on the side of the tube before applying it."
Hermes Un Jardin En Mediterranee
"Perfect for day. The scent is light, so people don't smell me from across the room."
Kinara Red Carpet Facial Kit
"I love how it makes my skin glow. All my girlfriends get facials when they come over to my house."
Sjal Light Cellular Renewal Cream
"I just started using this moisturizer; I like that it feels fresh and not greasy."
Oscar Blandi Jasmine Oil Shine Spray
"My hair is on the drier side, and this helps keep it soft. It's pretty awesome."

Save Money on your Hair!
Times are tough right now...we are in a global recession! But that doesn't mean we are just going to let ourselves go...we still have to look good right? Our hair can especially be quite expensive so some money saving tricks are always needed. I stumbled across an article on MSN today about saving money on your hair.
Here is a peek at one of the tips...
"Look to beauty schools. Pivot Point Chicago, Empire Beauty School in New York and Aveda Beauty Schools offer cut and color services at way-below-salon-prices. These services will be performed by students and supervised by an instructor, to make sure you won't walk out bald or with green hair."
I stand beside this one 100% while my sister was in beauty school I would stop in there to get my hair done all of the time. Not only was it really cheap it wasn't any different then stepping into a regular salon. With most schools you have to be in the program for at least a few months before you are able to go "on the floor". And one of the instructors are always coming by to check on how they are doing and immediately correct them if anything isn't perfect. But if you are going to do this just make sure you go to a reputable school...some of the smaller schools may not be as careful.

Can Flip Flops Make You Sick????
One of my favorite things about warm weather is wearing flip flops! I have a pair in almost every color! So I was shocked today when I read an article on MSN about the germs Flip Flops can pick up and if you aren't careful can make you extremely ill!
"TODAY, with the help of the University of Miami emergency mobile flip flop lab, tested some footwear and found that there were more than 18,000 bacteria on just one pair of flip-flops. Even more shocking than the number of germs were the types represented- bacteria from fecal matter, skin and respiratory germs. One pair of 6-year-old flip-flops had germs that cause yeast infections and diaper rash."
