Spa Week-Fit Picks leave you lighter than before!

Spa Week comes just in time to start thinking about beach season! Now through April 22 you can enjoy a great deal, its simple- $50 treatments. Here’s a list for beach ready body treatments:

Exhale Spa’s many NYC locations offer 5 pack mind- body classes of either yoga or core fusion, which you don’t have to use only during spa week

The Cellulite Center offers both endermolgie treatments and sudatonic body slimming treatments to attack that cottage cheese! The sudatonic treament uses microcurrents to stimulate muscles, relive minor muscle aches and muscle spasms while shaping, toning and tightening. Sometimes no matter how hard you work out, it just doesn’t seem to go away, so these treatments speed up the process-summer is around the corner and this is a real deal-the treatments normally go for 200 a pop. Makes you think twice about going for that second helping.

AquaVitae has a 60 minute Skinny Cellulite Smoothing Treatment

L’Institute Sothy’s has Lymphatic Drainage, Muscle toning and skin tightening

Joanna Vargas Salon and Skin Spa has a 45 minute Tone up treatment

Smooth Synergy offers Integral Lipomassage

Green Tea Spa has a 60 minute session of acupuncture for pain management to relieve those achy muscles

Completely Bare lowers its price to an obscene level for the lower stomach line and basic bikini laser treatments, because a toned tummy needs to be flaunted.

Samsung Focus Windows Phone GETS IT DONE

The Samsung Focus is a great choice if you want to try a Windows Phone. The phone is both durable, with an AMOLED display, and beautiful, with a simple, user friendly Start Screen you can make your own. The Windows Phone makes life simpler. Many features streamline tasks. I’m a busy New Yorker and I need a phone that can keep up with my hectic pace! The Windows Phone helps keep me sane. Let’s say you are meeting friends at a restaurant. The calendar feature is sweet, because it reminds you of your next appointment on the screen-no excuses for being late. If you are running late, you can easily let the whole group know with one touch on the People Hub. Maybe you get lost and forget the address, there is a one touch dedicated search button right on the device, and even includes voice search, which comes in handy for a variety of situations, especially on the go when you don’t have time to key in searches. What if you hate the restaurant? Its easy to look for another one. The maps and Local Scout are great for travelling, making you an instant expert in a new town, or even suggesting new things in a familiar neighborhood. There is internet Explorer Mobile right in your hands. A customized screen means less time wasted trying to find what you are looking for. Now finally at dinner, you want to keep those memories! The phone has a good 5MP camera with enhanced photo options I look forward to playing with. Then you can share your photos over multiple social networks and emails easily because they can be synced in minutes, no waiting ages for pics. Multitasking can be Samsung Focus’s middle name-on the way home I enjoy listening to music on AT&T Radio while I search the web. I am never bored with this phone! There are too many cool features to list, I suggest you try it out yourself. It is a deal at $49.99 with a 2-year AT&T contract now.

Getting Gorgeous Event

Getting Gorgeous Event in NYC had everything you need to look and feel gorgeous. Title sponsored by Degree Women, this event had every detail covered-from smelling great to the Hanes underwear under your fabulous outfit from Isabella Oliver to the FlipOut flops on your feet. The party started with delicious Simply OJ mimosas and tasty nibbles from Mo’s Caribbean, then on to hair and makeovers, sharing style tips and much mingling with the gals. Tide to go was on hand just in case there were any spills. Belli skincare gave samples of their healthy skincare- good for you and even your baby! (Get’em started young.) Gift bags were given to keep your glow going after the event. It was incredibly fun and I’m loving Getting Gorgeous!
