To the Gym & Beyond

I think there is absolutely no reason not to look cute at the gym! Back in my dancing days (did you know I was a competitive dancer? friends/colleagues of mine have even gone on to dance and star on glee, compete and win SYTYCD and even dance on tour with Beyonce and Lady Gaga!) I always had to get ready for class, even if I was just going to sweat it up! I am a firm believe that if I do not look my best, I can't do my best! When I used to do Yoga the girls I would take with would always make fun of me because I would always show up in no makeup except for my red lipstick, wearing a headband or bow in my hair without fail … so yes, looking your best at the Gym or wherever you work out is a must!

Okay, I'm going to be really honest here - I have never been a big gym rat. With work and blogging I don't have much free time and like to spend it shopping (that counts as cardio right), enjoying NYC or with Paris / Waffles. As a result, my "work out" is walking to and from work everyday (20 blocks and 3 avenues… that counts right?), walking Waffles and our occasional "sprints" - and by sprints I mean we run for about thirty seconds before Waff lays down and I have to carry him home… gotta love our "fit-fam" quality time ;]
