Super Bowl Sunday every guy's favorite holiday!


The biggest game of the year brings trouble….I researched a few things you can do to protect yourself on Sunday.

1) Ladies don’t let your man drive. Auto body shops love the Super Bowl for this reason. A study found a rise of 50 percent increase in car accidents after the game finished compared to other Sundays. Therefore don’t ruin the night by a dumb accident that could have been avoided.

2) Be smart when snacking. More calories are consumed on Super Bowl Sunday than any other day of the year so be sure to stock up your fridge with healthy snacks. Here’s my list of healthy snacks you can have on Sunday:

California sushi or veggie
Vegetable platter
Fruit platter
Healthy Panini sandwiches
Vegetable chips
Organic salted brown pretzels
Organic dark chocolate bars
Blue corn tortilla chips with black bean dip
Veggie pizza
Trial mix
Gram crakers
Green salad
Pasta salad with no cheese
Spring rolls

Also be smart about you’re beer drink light or skip beer and have organic wine.

3) One last thing that we all do and I’m guilty myself is call out the next day. A study showed 6% of working Americans call in sick the day after Super Bowl. So until it’s declared an official 3 day weekend get your ass to work.

Have a fun and safe Super Bowl guys.

Chao!

Amalyn Style: Make-up Secrets


I love this Mac gel liner it's called Fluidline. If you like the look of a liquid eye liner or have used liquid eye liners in the past you know it's pretty hard to apply and get a straight line, well with this gel it's so easy to use and you get even better results. It wears long and is smudge proof so you won't get a yucky line on your eyelid or on your eye shadow. All you need is a thin brush (see below for picture of brush) to achieve the dramatic look you want. Trust me you'll love this product!

Fashion Police at the SAG Awards

As you all know I love fashion and I love to give my advice on what's hot and what's not! I watched the SAG Awards this Sunday because I love to see the styles and dresses the celebrities are wearing. I have a few favorites and well a few that lets just say should have been arrested for wearing it lol! Here are my favorite dresses of the night!


Love the color and the style, it's different and fun and the jewelry was ill! You go Christina!


Another beautiful color the neckline was cool something different other than the off the shoulder dresses we've been seeing allot of lately!


This is a hard color to pull off but Ann did it with style love this cut it's very elegant and classy and the bling gave it an extra glamorous touch!

Some of my least favorite of the night were the following:


Don't know what she was thinking but this dress is just plain old boring.


This dress looks more like a wedding dress and fits her too big sorry I don't like it.


This dress looks a bit out of style and cheap.

There you have it my style advice of the best and worst dressed....let me know what you think!

Chao!

Kenneth Pool wedding dresses

Kenneth Pool wedding dresses are by far my favorite! When I got married my dress had to be from this collection because the designs are dramatic, glamorous and sophisticated. Austin Scarlett is the designer and director of the Kenneth Pool line he was first discovered on the first season of Bravo’s Project Runway. I love that he’s bringing the glamour of old Hollywood back but of course with a modern edge. Copy the link below to view the spring 2009 Kenneth Pool Wedding Dress collection.

Amalyn Style: Winter Dresses


I love to wear dresses and just because its winter doesn't mean I can't. I love this winter dress it's a plain gray turtleneck with a black loose skirt attached. Because accessories are my best friend I added a red belt, a bulky black necklace and leggings then I topped it off with a pair of black boots! All I wear in the winter is boots love them!

Skinny Bitch


I read an amazing book yesterday that made me think twice of the food I was putting into my body it’s called “Skinny Bitch” by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin! The reason I love this book is because these girls tell it to you like it is. This book is not a diet book but a way of life, the book is only 190 pages not long at all, I read it in one day. Before I read the book I made chicken for dinner and couldn’t eat it after I finished reading…yuck!

I have to agree being skinny is a life style! If not we will be on diets the rest of our lives. As a young girl I ate what ever I wanted and didn’t gain weight but after turning 25 it all caught up with me. Now that I'm older I realize that I can’t eat all the junk I want because it not only affects my body it also affects my mind, I don’t know about you but after I eat something that is fattening I always feel horrible afterwards. I’m going to take it one day at a time first I’ll start by not drinking soda but more water, no alcohol only organic wine, no milk which I don’t anyways but I will have to give up cheese 

Drink Milk it does a body good….whatever! Have you ever wondered why we are the only species on the plant that drinks milk as adults? And, we are also the only species on the planet that drinks the milk of another species. Yuck…I knew milk was bad I hate the taste so this won’t be a problem for me.

Here’s something for you to think about! “When a woman gives birth, her body produces milk and she nurses her child right. Breast milk can grow an 8 pound newborn into a 24 pound toddler…now that’s fattening huh, but that’s what Mother Nature intended because it allows the biggest growth spurt of a person’s entire life. Now, cow’s milk grows a 90 pound calf into a 2,000 pound cow over the course of two years now that’s even more fattening than human milk, but it should be because cows are bigger than humans get it.” (Skinny Bitch, page56 & 57) What the authors of the book are saying is that Mother Nature is no fool; our bodies have just what we need to get by. She didn’t intend for grownups to suck their mothers’ tits therefore we don’t need milk as adults.

Guys it’s time for a “CHANGE” and we all need to celebrate so get up from that couch and head to a party, the city will be hosting tons of parties after work or just host your own invite a few friends and watch the main event of the night. I won’t be in the city today but I’ll be at my mother’s house with my family drinking, eating and celebrating.

Watch the Inaugural Ball at 8:00PM on ABC….Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, Fait Hill, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, Shakira and many more will be performing today so don’t miss history in the making!
