Fashion Label Balmain Opens Balmain Los Angeles Flagship

Why move Balmain to the entertainment capital of the world? That is the question that many have wondered in regards to Balmain’s decision to set up shop on the west coast in the heart of LA. Olivier Rousteing shared what exactly inspired the opening of the Balmain Los Angeles Flagship. Olivier says,

“Los Angeles has always been this incredible source of dreams and inspirations. Pop culture actually made me fall in love with the city even before I had set foot inside it! Later, when Los Angeles became more than just the setting of movies and songs. It ended up inspiring me even more.

My California friends introduced me to the singular lifestyle. Relaxed glamour and exhilarating openness, diversity and freedom that one finds there; and, of course, in my collections. So, in many ways coming to LA is almost as much as a homecoming as the opening of a new flagship.”

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 10, 2017July 10, 2017Leave a Comment

Zendaya has many reasons to be one happy ball of joy. For instance, her new film, Spiderman Homecoming is now in theaters. The blockbuster film lived up to Marvel’s expectations and took in a whopping $257 million (worldwide) at the box office for its first week of release. In celebration Zendaya hit up social with a flurry of outdoor photos showcasing her insane beauty as well as melanin. Copy her fab, personal outdoor party and you will boost immune system in the process!

Zendaya Outdoor Shoot: Copy Her to Boost Immune System

Miss Zendaya looks beautiful for her impromptu outdoor shoot. The great thing is you can reap all the beauty benefits too if you do the same and march right out your front door. Just by being outside you can gain a little pep in your step thanks to vitamin D. Our little bright and warm friend in the sky (the sun) provides this nutrient naturally. Vitamin D is essential for bone/teeth growth and development as well as a defense and resistance against some diseases.

Plus, fresh air in general helps to increase the production of serotonin in the body. Serotonin is a hormone that can not only significantly lighten your mood, but promote a sense of well-being too! Therefore, if you ever feel yourself being a little anxious, stressed or just plain in the blues. Get up, put your shoes on and go outside. Nature will help put you back on the right track.

A few other benefits of being outside include: more energy, boost immune system, cleans lungs and supports brain health. So then, model yourself after Zendaya and get outside. Your body will thank you!

Simply Beautiful Skin: Why Consume Almonds For Breakfast

Arianne Suggs May 24, 2017May 24, 2017Leave a Comment

Beauty Quickie: Does your skin need to send up a prayer on Sundays because it is in need of some saving? Well after this quickie tip it may utter a jubilant, “Amen!” Most girls want simply beautiful skin but don’t know how to go about it in a more “natural” fashion. Thinking natural is important because so many skincare products use very unnecessary ingredients or just do not do as advertised.

Simply Beautiful Skin: Why Consume Almonds For Breakfast

Therefore, it’s time not to think so much on using only products, but concentrating on fixing skincare issues by working from the inside out. Every heard someone say, “You are what you eat?” It is a very true statement. Whatever, you eat will manifest itself in your physical appearance and this is true especially with skincare.

We were having a beauty chat with a few of our dermatologist buddies and they recommended eating almonds at breakfast time. Why? Almonds possess essential fatty acids that have the ability to combat skincare woes such as: blotchiness, sagginess, inflammation and fine lines. Therefore, starting off your day with a few nuts is an excellent method for giving your skin a nice helpful dose of skin protection.

Nevertheless, what if you are just not a fan of nuts or perhaps are allergic to them? A few other great food options are tuna, salmon and halibut. These do not necessarily have to be consumed at breakfast. However, including them in your lunch or dinner will certainly help you reap the many benefits.

Help! I Blew Cheat Day! How to Get Back on Track Without Drastic Measures

Arianne Suggs April 26, 2017April 26, 2017Leave a Comment

You’re pacing the room franticly as you wonder how you fit a grab bag, two Twinkles, theater popcorn, cake and Italian dinner into your body. As a result, you stare at your full belly hoping and praying you didn’t just undo all your hard work. First, breathe. Everyone has had a day where they ate a little bit too much of this and that. To get a dream body it takes tons sacrifice and dedication. Which is why a cheat day is not only welcomed by many but an absolute must!

No one wants to go the rest of their lives without a little “fun treat” here and there. However, what many come to find out is that including a cheat day is sometimes an even harder challenge than maintaining a nutritious diet. However, you can survive cheat day and come to use it as a valuable asset in your weight loss journey!

Help! I Blew Cheat Day! How to Get Back on Track Without Drastic Measures

Did I blow it? That’s a question many ponder after a botched cheat day. However, the answer may be surprising. Most likely you did not. That is because it takes 3,500 calories in order to gain a pound of fat. So then, if you are normally eating between 1200-1800 calories a day it is very unlikely you ate 2300-1700 extra calories.

Also, it is about if cheat day turns into cheat month. If you got right back to your regular routine the day after you put yourself right back on the road to success. However, if things snowball out of control then your day of treats did unfortunately knock you off balance a bit. Therefore, the thing to remember is that one day in the long run will not mess you up, it depends on how you respond after.

Lastly, many think that the best solution to overeating is to starve off the extra calories. This is a bad move. Starvation can cause you to lose muscle and be dehydrated. The better option would simply be to add in a little more exercise. You will burn off the calories and keep fitness at the forefront of your mind. So then, remember one day of treats is not bad and as long as you didn’t gorge you are most likely fine. Moreover, your actions after are truly the key, get right back on track and your goals shall be achieved.

Even at 20 weeks aka five months Williams still looks like she can take anyone on the court… and win! Nevertheless, if you are a mom-to-be like Serena here are 10 tips that will have you looking like a hot mama right after delivery.

Talk to your doctor – Your doctor will be able to provide tons of helpful advice. Also, make sure it will be safe to continue your normal fitness regimen or find out safer alternatives.
Get your cardio – Be sure to stick to low impact exercises. This means no jumping or hopping around. Hitting a treadmill or elliptical are much safer options. Get a good sweat but never overheat.
Chair Squats – Do 2-3 sets of 20 reps of this exercise to keep your lower body in check. Bye bye thunder thighs!
Invest in Dumbbells – Purchase a lightweight pair in order to perform curls, presses and kickbacks for the upper body. These exercises can be done in the comfort of a chair and will help keep your muscles toned.
Learn to love walking – Walking is one of the best low impact exercises for pregnant women. It’s a simple and easy exercise that can be done anywhere as well as anytime. Aim to walk for 30-60 minutes or if you are too exhausted it is totally okay to break up your workout. Try shorter increments of time like 8-10 minutes each throughout the day. It all will add up in the end and the point anyway is to keep moving throughout your pregnancy as long as your doctor approves.

10 Tips For Staying Fit When Expecting – (Continued)

Ready for the final five? These next tips will help you stay trim when the fork is in your hand and on the right track.

Don’t overeat– Most women only need between 300-450 additional calories during pregnancy. So as fun as it sounds to eat 5 more cheeseburgers than usual, it is not really necessary.
Dine for two – Eat high quality protein and healthy mono and saturated fats. This is good for you and the development of your baby. This high satiety diet will help reduce cravings making you want to snack while keeping your blood glucose levels nice and stable.
Chase Waterfalls – Drink TONS of water, at least 64 ounces and tack on an additional 8 ounces for every 30 minutes of exercise. Water will help you stay hydrated and reduce nausea, tiredness as well as overeating.
Take a rest – You don’t have to go all balls to walls to stay in shape. Listen to your body, if you need rest take it. You can always get back to your regular program once you’re no longer exhausted.
Go to bed – Get some beauty rest for you and your future bundle of joy. Getting AT LEAST 8 hours every night will help you recover from your fitness routine and the changes that occur as your baby grows.

By keeping the above tips in mind you will keep the physique you desire. Let Serena be your inspiration and like her you will be able get through your pregnancy like a champ.
