Snazzy Sundays ~ A Friends Night Is a Must

KittenCouture — Sun, 26 Jul 2009 05:00:00 -0700

I'm always going out whether it's to an event for a product launch or an appointment of some kind; however, there is something about going out for fun that is a must and yet can be the hardest thing to get on the calendar! Last week my boyfriend went out on a boys night and I'm not going to lie I was a little bummed as I thought it would be a great night in but he wanted the chance to hang out with his friends and he even brought someone from his office that he wanted to know better! Two of my best friends that I have known over the past almost 2 - 3 years email each other go out in twos but rarely do we all go out. I'm the single girl with the long term boyfriend that I live with, Keren (in the middle of the only color image included) is married and a mommie of 1 and Tessa on the right is married with a puppy! We all work in fashion and we're all super busy but we were determined to get time on the calendar and with that, in a very Sex and the City way is how 3 girls met in Midtown although Tessa lives in the Financial District, Keren is in North Jersey (in a fab building with amazing city views - although Tessa's views are AMAZING) and I live on the beach in Long Beach headed down for the classic drinks and nibbles at Tessa's place and on to some amazing bars at the Seaport. A girls night out where we just laughed had drinks and shots (and shots and shots) was one of the best times that I have had in a long time. We were able to catch up on what we were up to, what we were thinking of doing and just enjoying an amazing July that wasn't too hot and had just enough breeze. These are essential moments and regardless of the economy and what amount of time you have available having moments like this with your boys, girls or whoever you hold dear is important for your general health. On this Sunday, start a tradition whether this happens once a month or every other month. But this is not exclusive to just your friends. Paul and I every Sunday have dinner on our balcony which means we usually grill and it's a nice way to do something we do every night in a different way.

Trendy Thursdays: How Do You Glow?

KittenCouture — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 05:00:00 -0700

We've all hit the gym, been out in the sun or had a night out at the bars. All of these produce some kind of a glow that makes you look like your full of life; however, how about something that not only creates the glow, but is also easily obtained and good for your body? Glowelle, is a dietary supplement (from Nestle gasp)that you can ingest in your water or favorite juice so that you have that glow and plenty of antioxidants which are essential! I took the 30 day challenge and am currently still in it! My 30 day pack is in a cute box and is Raspberry/Jasmine (also comes in Pomegranate/Lychee) flavored. I found that pairing this with one of the larger SmartWater bottles was perfect as there is a lot of powder within each pouch (some people also split the packet if they feel it is too much). If you feel that you taste too much of the vitamin or flavor, consider putting this in with apple juice, cranberry, etc.

Whether you get the 30 day pack or you try out the 7 day pack, you'll find that drinking this assists in protecting the skin from the sun rays (not to say that you shouldn't have your SPF handy; however, it does reduce it. You'll replenish your antioxidants and also you'll have an even skin tone which gives it that healthy glow and lets you know that you're giving off your best look! I love that you can enjoy this in a pre-made or you can grab your favorite water and put it in n the go. Each sip is packed various vitamins which ensures you're getting your daily intake while also being very convenient! For those who are ready to jump in with Glowelle, you can enjoy the 30 day pack for $112 which comes out to taking vitamins for under $4 dollars a day! That's basically deciding that you'll have one less latte a day to put back into your health! Since when has caffeine given you a healthy glow that make up couldn't do for you naturally? I will continue to let you know about Glowelle as I continue to take more of the packets.

I also want you to know that we will have a series about fitness for your body and also beauty regimine that you guys will want to tune into as well! Make sure to read here and on Kitten Lounge's Fan Page on Facebook to find out about exclusive giveaways!

Sippin Saturdays: Yoga in Times Square

I hope everyone takes some time to check out Solstice in Times Square brought to you by SoyJoy! What a great way to ring in the summer at the center of Times Square! I will not be able to attend this; however, I know that many people will be able to join this event. In addition to having SoyJoy as a prime participant, the Times Square Alliance has also brought this amazing event! I really love the idea and can't wait to post the video of seeing Times Square getting a little relaxing love with so many yogis in the area! I love that this will be offered throughout the day and you will also be able to see the participating studios as well! Bring a friend and some comfortable clothes to enjoy this event. Visit the Times Square Alliance site to see the schedule and what you will be attending!

In addition, I would also check out SoyJoy to see the amazing bars that are great to eat throughout the day. Not only are they tasty but they are perfect to have when you need to get a tasty snack! With so many great flavors, you're bound to have more than one that you'll find yourself nibbling on! I think that the site is super cute and just as a means to relax, you'll love opening the site and seeing the cute parade of bars and the bunny walking across your screen!

If you ended up attending this event, please leave your comments and let me know what I missed! I look forward to hearing and if you take yoga in NYC, let me know as I am looking for a facility that I can go to as I am still searching for the perfect studio! I will also check out the list so I am excited to see your comments!
