Do I even need to write anything? This picture says it all. These amazing chicks and I hung out for five days, had an awesome time, laughed, giggled, drove—so much driving, hiked, walked, drank wine, shared clothes, ate takeout, bought friendship bracelets, watched basketball and Neil Degrasse Tyson, shopped, and consumed absurd amounts of cheese.…
Since, you know, celebs go there all the time anyway. And when they’re there, they ski and yoga. Hell, that’s all I did when I lived there too. BUT, April 17-20, my skiing spirit animal (and yes, I know she’s a snowboarder but I don’t care because it was her [line for Oakley] ski/snowboard pants…
Heh. I’m writing this too early on Monday morning as a Feel Good Friday because I was indeed taking a break—a much-needed girls weekend in Portland, Oregon. My bestie/facebook girlfriend picked me up around noon on Wednesday after a painless flight before which a stranger bought me a coffee because “you’re hot.” By Thursday morning as…
If there is a poster child for #IPlayLikeAGirl, it is me. Here’s me, just making history like a faux celeb trying out for a football team. I’ve actually made this point a bunch of times in conversation: I don’t want to play football like a man, I want to play football like a woman. It’s…
I cannot figure out how to make that headline seem less spammy. But here’s the truth: despite my well-documented tumultuous relationship with workout brand Ellie (here, here, here), the actual clothes remain standbys in my rotation. I’ve even given pieces as gifts (Go With the Flow), and there are still pieces I covet but haven’t ordered. They…
Today is International Day of Happiness—and it’s weird for me to not be promoting that through DailyHap. So I write about it here instead, for Feel Good Friday! There’s an article I wrote pretty early on in DailyHap’s existence called Always Happy. There’s this myth that some people (me) are always happy, and that’s just not…
Y’all, this is toilet paper. I would pin this convertible!! dress in a heartbeat, not knowing it was made from TP. This is 2014’s winner, Susan Brennan, who made this insane dress out of toilet paper. Toilet paper!! Think you can top this masterpiece? You can win $10K and see your dress made into a…
The story of my first time off-roading in the jeep (named Ginger Lynn for the top pornstar name in her birth year, also fitting her coloring) with the best co-pilot I could have imagined—even though she unbuckled before the first hill “in case I need to bail” … TDS 2015 or bust! Literally. Obviously I’m…
In the summer of 2006, I did costume design for a movie called Growing Out while interning at Shape mag and living in Brentwood—so celeb L.A. of me. ALL those clothes you see? I picked ’em out. Designed them, if you will. The movie I worked on is available on Amazon Instant Video ($1.99) and…
I declared 2015 the year of openness, but so far I haven’t been all that good at making space. Sometimes it’s hard, because there’s so much we want to DO, that we pack it all in and forget that we can’t enjoy all the things without some breathing room around them. Earlier this week, we announced a…
