Guess what?! Bethenny Frankel is our special guest at #NBGNO! I'm so excited about this because I've watched the Girls' Night Out movement grow so much since I joined the team. We are a group of empowered, health-loving women who work out hard but still crave a cocktail and girl-time. If there's anyone who fits that bill, it's definitely Bethenny! Look at everything she's done, from creating SkinnyGirl to hosting her own daytime talk show! New Balance & Susan G Komen For The Cure have been going strong for 25 YEARS! And for that reason, we celebrate at this next #NGBNO event, while honoring breast cancer awaresness month. As many of you know, October is the month of PINK. Companies of all kinds donate a portion of their profit from sales on PINK products made especially for breast cancer awareness and fundraising campaigns. New Balance has been doing this with Susan G. Komen for 25 years, making them one of the biggest sportswear players in PINK contributions. The...

During this past New York Fashion Week 2014, I was invited to Style Coalition's beautiful influencer event at their loft in the Meatpacking District (right around the corner from Mizzfit headquarters). The Influencer Lounge was lavishly set up for Style Coalition's bloggers and vloggers to primp, enjoy a cocktail and rest their sore feet in between fashion shows. I got a gel manicure, had some champagne and made a huge discovery! While getting a makeup touch-up, I was introduced to Burt's Bees new line of lip crayons. Umm, I had no idea Burt's had expanded their product line so much so I was excited to get the scoop and sample it! I must admit, lip crayons were a little foreign to me even though I already owned one (thanks to Michelle Phan's Ipsy Glam Bag). I just didn't know how to use it correctly. So, I let the makeup artist at Style Coalition do her thing (as I meticulously watched her so I could reproduce the effect later)...and now, of course, I'm...

Usually FREE WORKOUTS only happen in the summertime. But fall is bringing it with this list of free fit events happening in New York City. I will be attending as many of them as I can, especially the one I'm hosting. Just make sure to sign up for the events you definitely want to attend ASAP. All of these promise to fill up. Sept 10th - Girls' Night Out with New Balance hosted by ME! Girls' Night Out (a.k.a. #nbgno) was at it all summer with a series of events aimed at social fitness for empowered ladies. If you read my site regularly, you'll know that it was a major success and the highlight of my summer. In celebration of fall fitness and snazzy NB activewear, Girls' Night Out is doing another event in NYC featuring the popular rowing workout by City Row. RSVP NOW and mark your calendars for Wednesday, Sept 10th at 6.30pm. The event starts at the New Balance Experience Store in Flatiron and will migrate over to the High Line (with a run) for some high-intensity...

I love when good things never die! I'm happy to report that Girls' Night Out events (#NBGNO) will continue to pop up across the country and eventually circle back to New York City in September. The next one is in Santa Monica on Wednesday, August 27th at 6.30pm at the NB Store on 2600 Wilshire Boulevard. Hosting the Girls' Night Out campaign for New Balance was one of the highlights of my summer. I got to work out and connect with so many amazing women who believe in the benefits of social fitness. What I loved most is that these women weren't competitive, mean, selfish or jealous. They were a bonded, smiling-laughing group. It was so refreshing to experience. I have to be candid and say that last night I went to an unrelated fitness event I was invited to in New York City, and there were several fitness bloggers in attendance who were very unfriendly (wouldn't say hello or shake hands) and no one socialized. When I attempted to introduce myself to strike up a...

These pics from the last #NBGNO event say everything. All I'm gonna write, since as you can see, my mouth is kind of sealed is THERE'S ONE MORE PARTY LEFT THIS SUMMER AND I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU THERE! On June 24th, we stretched together... We ran and sprinted along the Hudson River... We did bootcamp style drills and worked our derrières. We documented our adventure through NYC streets... We turned pedestrian heads at the size of our herd... Then we took things in-store with Holly Perkins and started a "band". Kind of... Followed by catering by Sweet Green (the BEST salads in NYC), and eventually drinks and dance. And, of course, some air-time... A party's not a party (worth bragging about) without a Step 'n Repeat... And some girls gone wildly fit and empowered! It was a perfect Girls' Night Out. See for yourself; more event pics HERE! Darn, I wasn't gonna say anythng. But I guess when it comes to...

But you can and will if you sign up for my next Girls' Night Out event with New Balance. My story commences... A month or so ago, I got a call from New Balance asking if I'd like to host their NYC summer event series called Girls' Night Out to celebrate their recently launched GNO Meet Up app. Just from the initial sound of it, this was an opportunity I could not say no to. I LIVE for empowering events that gather fitness, health and fashion loving women. So I hopped on board but never imagined the caliber and excitement of the event that I helped shape with New Balance. Now, I can't take all the credit, because the New Balance team brainstormed the summer event series that takes place in both Boston and New York. But I was thrilled to see so many of my readers and community of fit-fashionistas show up. It was the best party of my summer so far! And there are 2 more #NBGNO parties coming up. So it only gets better for me Let me tell you what goes on, so that...
