Cuff and Roll

Now that the first official day of Summer has come and gone it seems as though it is now hotter than ever! With temperatures nearing the mid to high 90s on a daily basis, it is almost impossible to wear anything that hits below the knees...like denim pants.

However, if you are a denim lover like most you can still get your denim wardrobe fix in the Summer by wearing denim shorts.

To be completely honest I have never really been a huge fan of denim shorts (especially ones that are cuffed or frayed) but I decided to give them a chance. I purchased these cuffed denim shorts from LOFT and I absolutely love them! As long as you pair the shorts with a nice top and a great pair of sandals, wedges or pumps you'll be good to go!

Below I have featured some celebrities wearing cuffed denim jeans, looking anything but frumpy.


Victoria Beckham takes her outfit to the next level by pairing her denim shorts with a blazer and ankle boots.


Bride-to-be Hilary Duff looks cute in her cuffed denim shorts and platform pumps.


Former Hills personality Lauren Conrad gets fueled up, while looking casual yet polished.


Kourtney Kardashian attends an event and beats the heat in style.



Below I have featured shorts that are all reasonably priced and perfect for Summer!

What do you think of the cuffed/rolled denim short trend? Is it something that you think you would wear or leave to the next person? Please share because I would like to know!

Look Ma, I'm on TV!

With all of the reality shows on television now, you're bound to know someone on one of these shows. I actually happen to know a lot of girls that have been on different reality shows over the years through my involvement in pageants and work. And now the latest reality show features someone I went to college with...which is a first!

You're Cut Off! is a new reality show that is premiering on Vh1 this evening featuring self-proclaimed spoiled daddy's girls and socialites. It is a reality tv marriage between the now defunct Simple Life and Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive.


The girl on the show that I know is named Jackie (brunette in navy dress), and I met her when we were freshmen in college during sorority rush because we were in the same pi chi group. We ended up joining different sororities, but we would always say hello to one another when we would see each other.

Her cast bio states the following:

Jaqueline is a daughter of a successful business executive. She has three walk-in closets in her 10,000 square-foot home with a wine cellar and media room. She thinks men are superficial and pick women to date based on their looks, so she sees nothing wrong with checking out a man’s bank account before going out. Jaqueline got her first Chanel bag at age five and has gotten everything she wanted ever since. Now that she’s graduated college, her parents are cutting her off to stop her endless partying and reckless spending.

Hmm...that's interesting. I know that she drove a cute Mercedes when we were in college...but a lot of other kids did, so I didn't really think much of it! Hopefully she'll represent herself and her family in a positive light (not too sure if that is possible while being on a show such as this...or any show on Vh1 for that matter.)

I wonder who else will pop up on a reality show next?! It certainly won't be me!

Do you think you'll tune in to watch You're Cut Off? Do you know anyone that has been on a reality television show, or have you been on one yourself? Please share your thoughts!

Are you hungry?

Although I don't consider myself to be a complete health nut, I am someone that is somewhat health conscious. I enjoy working out, eating organic, counting calories and all that good stuff. My refrigerator and pantry are always stocked with Morningstar Farms veggie products (love the black bean burger and veggie bbq ribs!), Skinny Cow ice cream, Kashi products and Lean Cuisines for the days that I don't want to cook....and of course we can't forget about the fresh fruits and vegetables!

I am always trying to find a way to eat what I love and watch my figure, so I am a total sucker for anything that is low fat, low calorie and sugar free. I was watching a repeat of the Rachel Ray show today, and was totally captivated by her guest Lisa Lillien, aka Hungry Girl.



Ms. Lillien has a series of books that feature our favorite high calorie dishes and drinks in low cal versions! Before the segment was over I was on my laptop reserving all of her books from my local library, and if I like the recipes I will certainly purchase the books in the near future.

Have any of you ladies tried the Hungry Girl recipes? What are some of your favorite low calories dishes/recipes? Please share, because I'd love to know!
