This IS Why You're Fat

Now that spring is slowly approaching......(did I mention it was SLOWLY approaching?) it is time to get back into a presentable form. Otherwise there will be no bikini on this body. And that would just be depressing. SO today I downloaded Jackie Warner's new book This is why You're fat onto my i pad kindle app. So far I have only made it through the first chapter and it is showing clear signs of promise. Here is the summary of the book that sold me.....(thanks google prouducts!)

"Being fat isn't your fault; staying fat is." That's what Jackie Warner, America's favorite no-nonsense celebrity fitness trainer tells her own clients, and that's why no one delivers better results than Jackie does. Now for the first time, Jackie shares her revolutionary program, showing readers the best ways to drop pounds and inches fast, "without "grueling workouts or deprivation, and keep them off for good! Her two-tiered approach provides a complete nutritional makeover and a failure-proof condensed workout routine PLUS all the emotional support and encouragement you need to get to the finish line and beyond. With Jackie's core principles, you'll discover once and for all which behaviors are making you fat, and which can finally make you thin forever-and some may surprise you: - ADD""TO LOSE: In Jackie's 2-week jump start, no food is off-limits. You'll actually "add" food to your diet in order to lose weight. - CHEATING IS ALLOWED: Eat clean for 5 days, and then indulge in whatever you want over the weekend! - FAT IS NOT THE ENEMY: Fat doesn't make you fat; sugar does! Nothing you eat should contain over 9 grams of sugar - SKIP THE CRUNCHES: They just build muscle under the fat. Discover the fastest way to burn calories, tone muscle, and spark your metabolism for rapid fat loss - LESS (EXERCISE) IS MORE: Workouts shouldn't take over your day-give Jackie 20-minutes and you'll see results.

"....Melet Mercantile, a vintage showroom on Wooster Street in Soho. There were specific hard-to-find relevant pieces everywhere, clearly curated to current trends. There were awesome letterman jackets in every color (and I mean every color), as well as carefully organized vintage sweatshirts, t-shirts, and Converse. It also has an amazing book selection that even included vintage copies (in perfect condition) of publications such as Interview magazine. The entire book selection is great for finding a unique gift. It's a lofted space within a Soho building, so you get to avoid all the busyness of the streets below. It's a by-appointment-only space, and once you get there, you will completely understand why, as it's very overwhelming, yet perfectly organized and well-kept."—Yale Breslin

Local Celebrity Comes To Niche This Spring

Wanna feel like a Celeb? Or at least a Local Celebrity? Me too. And it just got easier. Local Celebrity, the super funny, ultra silly tee shirt line arrives at Niche this week!

Who is this Local Celebrity you say? Check out the about us blurb on www.localcelebrity.com......

We got the idea for Local Celebrity back in 2003 while we were at a music festival in rural Illinois – Cornerstore. We were rocking out in the middle of a corn field when inspiration struck us like heavy metal thunder, “Let’s ditch our jobs and start a t-shirt company!” Pretty much just like that we packed up our bags and headed to San Diego to move into our grandma’s ranch. After a long road-trip, a few brainstorming sessions, and a couple dozen high-fives, we came up with our first set of designs. We maxed out our credit cards, bought a screen-printing machine, and taught ourselves how to make t-shirts, and that’s what started it all.

It wasn’t long before Grandma's ranch couldn’t handle the abundance of freshness we were churning out, so we packed up again, and moved to a very glamorous part of downtown Los Angeles known as Skid Row. We’ve been laying our magical mac down here ever since.

All the products that we sell are produced 100% from scratch by us right here in LA. We do not buy other mid-grade t-shirts like American Apparel or Hanes and print designs on them, and try to call ourselves a brand. We buy our own ultra-premium fabrics, then cut & sew our own custom t-shirts, creating the perfect canvas for our designs! You'll notice the difference as soon as you see and feel them, if you haven't already...and you'll especially notice the difference when you're getting "snapped" all over town…. “Oh snap!! Where’d you get that shirt!?”

You can find Local Celebrity in the finest retail stores all over the world and right here at LocalCelebrity.com, where you can also collect limited-edition shirts that are not available in stores or anywhere else on the web.

We’re family owned and operated, and absolutely love what we do! We truly appreciate all our loyal customers and fans. We add new content to the site every day, and new designs every week, so be sure to visit us often!

Woot woot,

Local Celebrity

Selena Gomez and cover girl cosmetics. Gorgeous!!

Selena Gomez's look was created ENTIRELY with CoverGirl products. Shocking. And beautiful. But Shocking.

Here is how makeup artist Karen Mitchell achieved such perfection.....(thanks to racked.com)

"I stared with Selena's eyes," Mitchell says. "I first lined her upper and lower lashline with CoverGirl LiquilineBlast eyeliner ($8) in Brown Blaze. I love how the liquid-like pencil blends so easily and that you can easily control its intensity."

Next, using a medium brush, "I blended the light shade from the CoverGirl Smoky ShadowBlast ($9) in Bronze Fire on the entire eyelid up to the eyebrow," Mitchell says. "I then took step two, the darker shade, and with a smaller eyeshadow brush, I blended the color above and below the eye as well as into the crease of the eyelid. I then used the CoverGirl Eye Enhancers Eyeshadow ($3.50) in Brown Smolder on the outside corners of her upper eyelids to create more dimension and drew a thin line with a slight wing to the outer edges on the upper lash line using CoverGirl LineExact Liquid liner ($7) in Very Black. I finished her eyes with two coats of CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara ($7.50) in Black."

"For her skin, I used CoverGirl NatureLuxe Silk Foundation ($12) to give her a flawless finish," Mitchell says. "To highlight the t-zone and highlight under the eyes I used the CoverGirl CG Smoothers Concealer ($6) in medium. To set the base I used CoverGirl TruBlend Pressed Powder ($8) in #2 Translucent Light with a soft brush. I then applied to the apples of the cheeks Cheekers Blush ($4) in Pretty Peach."

"I finished her look with CoverGirl LipPerfection lipcolor ($7.50) in the bright gorgeous shade of Siren."

Let's do the math....$66.50. Good bye Mac, Hello CVS!

They Do Exist!!!!

This is classic. I love it. In the middle of the desert, an abandoned gas station turned ultra cool clothing store.
