Vibram FiveFingers shoes cost around $110 and approximately 4 million kangaroo lives per year*.

FiveFingers shoes are designed to make you feel like you're walking or running barefoot. Shame on them! Shame on the fitness industry for allowing this to happen! It's a barefoot-inspired shoe for God sakes! It makes absolutely no sense to me that a kangaroo has to die in order for fitness consumers to feel like they're walking or running barefoot. Especially when grassy fields are plenty. I'm assuming most barefoot runners worry about the consequence of stepping on something sharp or uncomfortable and a grassy terraine is one way to avoid that...I've done it and it feels great. I've also run full marathons next to runners who were completely barefoot on city streets. This is something I wouldn't do, but I know it can be done without killing a kangaroo!

*This number is an estimate of kangaroos commercially killed in Australia annually. Read more...

It's friends and family time at Puma's online store which means 40% off your full-priced purchases until December 6th. If you spend more than $50, you get free shipping too! This is quite a deal and that's why I'm blogging about it at 11.30pm on a Friday night. A little retail therapy never hurts, right? Here's what I'm loving right now from Puma's online store.

The jackets above are part Puma's Urban Mobility collection. These might be the raddest windbreakers I've ever seen. Yes, "raddest" is a real word in my vocabulary. And just in case you weren't aware, Puma partnered with Alexander McQueen on a bad-ass NYC style, urban collection. I know this because The Puma Black Store is dangerously close to where I live and occassionally I stalk the store and the merchandise in it. The good news is that some McQueen pieces are available online so take advantage of the 40% discount before it gonzo. JUST CLICK THE GREEN BOX BELOW!

Don't forget to enter the 40%...

2011 is just around the corner and it's time to start jotting down or at least thinking about your New Year's resolutions. How are you going to change for the better? How are you going to look and feel healthier? Fitness is an obvious choice but it's hard to motivate in the dead of winter. So what's a girl to do? Reinvent yourself to reshape yourself. Pull a Madonna and change things up, from your look to your routine. Here's how I did it.

Get creative (with layers or colors)

Mix Loose with tight

Make Sure it's Comfortable

Add Unique pieces

Talk about outfit for photo shoot. Start talking about designing your own pieces and personalizing your workout routine.

When it comes to fitness you have to 1) invest in yourself, 2) inspire yourself and 3) challenge yourself.  makes you want to work out hard and more often
