And the Grammy goes to...
Music's shining stars headed to the red carpet for the 56th Grammy Awards tonight. I have to say, as a whole I was a little disappointed in the fashions this year. Nothing really wow'd me. There was no glitz. No glamour. But I did manage to find a few that dazzled. And as always, the bad have suffered enough...so they shall remain nameless. Photos care of People.com

Get Healthy Plan for 2014
Every year I make resolutions to get healthy. Lose weight. Eat right. So far I am not off to a good start, but that is about to change.
In a week, I am leaving my job. I gave it three years and ten pounds. But life is too short to spend eight hours a day in a place that makes you unhappy. So, it's time to move on and figure some shit out.
Since I will have some time on my hands, I have decided to put a Get Healthy Plan into action.
I took my first Soul Cycle with one of my best friends on Thursday and loved it so much, I bought a class pack and am fully prepared to be this sore forever, if it means I am finally doing cardio that I actually like. I used to run, but after a few injuries I had to accept the fact that running long distances was no longer an option. Soul Cycle is perfect. Loud music. 45 minutes of balls to the wall, sweat your face off cardio.
Another weapon in my Get Healthy Plan is Physique 57. Strength training for ballerinas. Integrating dance moves and stretches with strength training. I want to awe people with my killer arms and I know this class can get me there...
The glue that keeps me together. Yoga. I have been doing yoga on and off since my senior year of college, 11 years ago. I took a class as my physical fitness requirement in my last semester and fell in love. The physical benefits are amazing but it's the emotional and spiritual benefits that really hit the home run for me. Yoga keeps me sane, quiets my NYC brain and is the answer to every question in my life.
The final piece to the puzzle. Diet (rolls eyes). I hate restricting what I eat, but I love to eat. SO clearly I have to strike a balance, otherwise I would be shoving cupcakes in my face hourly. Oh, did I mention I love to bake? It ain't easy being me. But I have decided that I need to go all in to make this year my healthiest ever. The older I get, the more weight I gain and the more I feel it. Sluggish. Tired. Occasionally blue. It's time to step it up, cut the excuses and finally put in 100%.

And the Actor goes to...
Considering I spent all day in my sweats, it's nice to see a group of people wearing ridiculously expensive clothing in 80 degree Los Angeles weather (in January, ahem), socializing among some of the most celebrated actors in the history of the industry. It's nice to see how the other half lives. Looks like we're going to be doing this for the next couple weeks, til the Oscars bring up the rear end of March.
I thought as a whole everyone looked great! Though there were a few more missteps this time, I still think there was more good than bad or ugly. Let's review, shall we?

And the Golden Globe goes to...
All the beautiful people gathered in Hollywood this past Sunday for the 71st Annual Golden Globe Awards. As I sat poised on my couch, microwave popcorn in hand, ready to receive the fabulousness, I just couldn't wait to see what the ladies were bringing this year.
There were SO many choices for best dressed. Seriously. And those that made my worst list (which you will not see, since I just don't do that anymore) really even weren't that bad. I glimpsed at my Twitter feed often and I couldn't help but feel critics were trashing dresses simply because there weren't many train wrecks! All of the ladies and gentlemen represented on my list were the best of the best and I can't wait to see what they bring to the Academy Awards in a month.
