Karlie Kloss with Daft Punk? We’re not really sure what this collaboration could mean, but nevertheless – we are fans. Most people think that they’re shooting a music video, which would make perfect sense since Daft Punk just released their latest album Random Access Memories.

This girl…she gets everything she wants! We’re not knockin’ her in the slightest.

Madewell Fall Lookbook

Sure, I’m giving you a sneak peak at Madewell’s fall lookbook so we can have something to look forward to, but fall – stay right where you are. I want my summer. I want it now and just because I’m oodling your fall lookbook doesn’t mean I want these clothes any sooner.  We’ll see you in four months.

The Diet That Allowed Christina To Slim Down

When Christina performed her new single with Pitbull a couple of weeks ago at the Billboard Music Awards, all anyone could talk about was the singer’s incredible transformation! It seemed like just yesterday she was flaunting overly sexy outfits on The Voice, but flash forward to the award show and her dress was cute and fitted. Two words that we do not typically associate with Christina Aguilera.

So how did she do it? What’s her secret? If you know me at all, you know that I don’t pay too much attention to diets except for that one time I was slightly intrigued by juice cleanses. That lasted a day.

Apparently, Christina went on a dieting program that enabled her to lose 20lbs and spend just $1,394.69 on food a month. Now when you think about that number for a second, you might automatically believe that that is a pretty low price to pay for food. Kevin and I sat here trying to calculate if we actually spent that much on food for a month and we decided that it would be logical if it were for the two of us. Then again, we grocery shop; Christina doesn’t have to.

What’s on the menu for the songstress?

The meals include tasty options like pumpkin-apple quinoa oatmeal for breakfast, a chopped grilled steak salad with roasted tomatoes for lunch, and grilled ahi tuna with sweet potatoes and cauliflower for dinner with apple-cinnamon cheesecake for dessert.

Um, can we join the club too? In addition to a newly arranged diet, Christina is also weight training and practicing yoga. The singer will debut her new and refreshed look this coming fall for The Voice Season 5.

Full Time Blogger Vs. Full Time Day Job

photo cred | Song of Style

As much as I have loved running Yow Yow! for the past four years, I must admit that it was challenging to juggle when I was a full-time student and then also when I decided to pursue a full-time career. Yow Yow! though near and dear to my heart has always taken a back seat, but hey! we made it work right? We’re still kicking. We’re still alive. And we’re still trying to make things better as time goes on. When I was in school, I would always be updating Yow Yow! in the evenings whenever I finished my homework. Now when I’m off from my day job, Yow Yow! becomes my second job. It’s an interesting situation, but “it is what it is.” Fashionista recently interviewed one of my favorite style bloggers Aimee Song of Song of Style who is just like me! She, too, has a day job as an interior designer and has expressed that balancing the two roles can sometimes pose a challenge especially when her day job prevents her from opportunities. I recently ran into the same issue when I kept missing out on lunches with potential clients, but as always – if the relationship is meant to be – it will be. Feel free to check out the interview and get an insider look at how the both of us overcome these challenges, but how at the end of the day it is all still worth it.

Wedding Tuesday?

Returning to work on a Tuesday had me confused for Wedding Mondays. Today, the Nordstrom Wedding Suite announced that a new batch of Vera Wang wedding gowns had arrived and of course I couldn’t help myself from taking a peek at the look book. Vera Wang is a popular designer for most brides and while I admire the designs, the volume, and the elegance, I’m not sure if my dream wedding gown will ever be found in her collections. Regardless, I have so much respect and adoration for the woman and even though most wouldn’t approve of a non-white wedding gown, I was actually drawn to this one. Check out the rest of the look book here.
