Why Feel The "Y": Core Concepts
Do you work your "Y"? Well you should...it is an easy way to feel connected to your "core." The "Y" connects your armpits to your belly button, and then your pelvic floor (like a kagel) pulling up toward your navel.

Fab Flash: Gisele Y Ikatu Xingu Footwear Collection
Since 2001, Gisele's footwear line called Ipanema has sold over $100 million dollars worth of sandals! The line is inspired by the legends of the Brazilian Indian people and the sandals are now available in Malaysia.
However, instead of just celebrating these legends, it has been reported that the shoe manufacturer, Grendene, has decided to help them too.
You Can Look Pretty in Purple Shadow, Too
Emma Stone sure knows how to glam it up, doesn't she? At last night's GQ Men of the Year event in LA, the actress wowed in this subtle lavender shadow. Encircling the eyes with makeup can look raccoon-like, but Emma manages to pull it off, thanks to a light touch and a soft-toned shade.
Taste Test: Brown Sugar Cinnamon Ritz Crackers
With holiday parties looming on the horizon, I've had killer apps and hors d'oeuvres in the back of my mind. Since no party is complete without a meat, cheese, and crackers platter, it's only appropriate that Nabisco has come out with a new variety of Ritz cracker, Brown Sugar Cinnamon, that's sure to be popular come Christmastime. Ritz crackers were an after-school pastime for me growing up, so I couldn't wait to try the new flavor.
New York Fashion Week, Spring 2009: Hanii Y, Sleepwalker
Amid the Oscars and Ralphs, there is always new blood debuting at New York Fashion Week. I was already familiar with the house of Hanii Y, and was curious what the designer's first official presentation would entail. I also had the chance to meet the designer Hanii Yoon — who is half of the other design house Y & Kei, where she designs with her husband.
K-Y Brand: Yours+Mine Couples Lubricant
I've heard of his and her robes or his and her bicycles, but now there's his and her lube? I actually think it's a brilliant idea, and now it's coming straight to us from our trusted friends at K-Y. It's called K-Y Yours+Mine ($16).
Go Green Week: Y Water? Why Not.
Every new mama knows that baby's favorite "toy" is an empty water bottle. While that's a cheap and simple hat trick to pull anywhere at anytime, Y Water is a new product that fits the bill and then some. Beyond doubling as a toy, the uniquely shaped bottles are filled with organic, low calorie, drinks.
Backstage Beauty: Y&Kei
Yesterday I had a lot of fun roaming the Y&Kei presentation. Unlike in a runway show, the models don't walk around. Instead, they pose and stand and look model-y.
Do You Crave Office Praise?
There have been columns popping up left and right regarding how demanding Gen Y is, and the newest observation is that we need and expect constant praise because our egos were over-stroked as kids. It's an interesting observation, but I'm left wondering whether or not it's true. Most Millennial focused articles I've read set us up as a group that's needy all around, but the praise issue is one that's more difficult to measure than, say, wanting more work perks.
Are the Demanding Descriptions of Gen Y Accurate?
New surveys and conversations among human resources execs make it seem like employees under the age of 29 (also known as Millenials and Gen Y) are a bratty bunch. A new CareerBuilder survey shows that we supposedly expect our employers to provide more benefits and other perks than our older colleagues — namely, better pay, a flexible work schedule and company-provided BlackBerrys and cell phones. Additionally, 87 percent of hiring managers say we exhibit a sense of entitlement that older generations don’t.
