Cartoon Gossip - Ashton & Todd Style

I am a huge fan of Todd Goldman. One of my amazing LL sisters shared one of Ashton Kutcher's new project called Blahgirls.com a new web series based on Todd Goldmans Blah Girls characters. I found it truly hilarious and girly. I love how they incorporate celebrity gossip with a cartoon feel to it. Check out the video below and enjoy their website!

Tone it Up!

Body+Soul magazine had a great article on tips to help me get in shape. When it comes to working out, I'm such a procrastinator! Visually (in my mind) I see myself thinner but it takes more than visualizing, it's taking "action" on my vision and dumping the excuses (oh you should hear my excuses).


Here's a few toning tips:


  • Take your meetings on the road by turning a sit-down session into a walk-and-talk.

  • Set an alarm to remind you to stand up at least once every hour.

  • Go dancing once a week

  • Don't take your TV commercials sitting down. Get up and move around; do a few jumping jacks or physical chores until the program comes back on.

  • Skip the elevator and take the stairs.

  • Play the Dance Dance Revolution video game (you don't have to be a kid to enjoy it).

  • Have (more) sex.

  • Get a cardio workout DVD and do it 1 to 2 times a week.

Tory Burch: The Hottest Summer Sandal!


I love Tory Burch! Tory's summer sandal collection is hot - she has various styles with her signature gold emblem. You have to pick up a pair to wear with your neon manicured toes. You are in luck because she has a great sale going on, get a pair before they sell out!

Bring the on the curves....























This ad is awesome! I was browsing through Lucky Magazine (I thought I was going to stop reading it but - ok your right, it's a pretty good mag) I glanced at this ad for Curvation and immediately felt like I could identify with this woman. I am also a curvaceous and petite black woman so I felt connected with this ad as there aren't many ads that feature curvaceous women to begin with, let alone black women. I usually find the really good multi-racial ads in Essence magazine. Glossies are so stereotypical and this ad defies the image that "skinny is in". It is ok to be curvy with hips, shapely legs and a bust line that most women pay to have, this ad says basically brings truth that we are all human!

Please Consider the Environment


I am a magazine fanatic! I love subscribing to magazines that deal with fashion, beauty, life style, parenting and GOSSIP! Last year I had too many subscriptions and I was backlogged 3 months. I decided this year to only subscribe to mags that I am committed to reading as soon as I receive it in the mail and focus on reading more thought provoking material.

The magazines I decided to continue reading are Domino, Harpers Bazaar, Elle, Elle Décor, Glamour, O at Home, O – Oprah Mag, Real Simple, In Style and Essence. A few new magazines I’ll add to my list is: Martha Stewart Living and Rachel Ray. I am very upset that they got rid of Blue Print – it was such a great magazine.

I know this will sound very crazy but I decided not to continue with Lucky. Don't get me wrong Lucky is a wonderful magazine and my co-blogger swears by them, however it doesn't do much for me. I love fashion but it is 1) too much "style" information in one in magazine and 2) it only pisses me off when I can’t buy the things I’ve tagged! I have over 12 mags with tags of things I want but let's be realistic, how often do you buy the things you see in magazines?

Anyhow, the point of this post is that my renewal to Elle is due and I didn't realize digital subscriptions were available. I can purchase the digital copy, download it and watch it when I want. No more worries about my magazine arriving late because as soon as the monthly issue is ready to be release it is in my inbox, now that’s awesome! Having a digital issue is eco-friendly, saves trees and my boyfriend will be happy to see less magazines around the house. The only problem with everything being digital is it deprives me of touching the glossy pages, tearing out the article that “moved me” and being able to carry my mags with me wherever I go.

I guess if I want to help the environment, I will subscribe for the digital subscription, download it and start carrying my Mac book with me, guess I solved my own problem.

Interested in a digital subscription? Check out Zinio, you can get a free magazine to download.
