My intern Carrie LOVES Under Armour and, upon her urging, I recently attended an event for the brand, where–yes indeed!–I found myself super-impressed with their offerings. One of their extra-brilliant items is their Women’s Playmaker Massage Slide. Not just your typical flipflop sandal, these have a) a massage footbed, YAY b)  holes all over the footbed as well that were inspired by tire treads–so they’re great for  water runoff. They’d be the PERFECT sandals for any college-bound freshman (hello, communal showers?!)… $25, visit underarmour.com to buy! 

With Earth Day fast approaching, here are more easy-to-do ideas to try from eco-friendly living expert Danny Seo:

“If you’re driving to a faraway gym everyday to go running, then you need to re-evaluate if the commute is worth it or not. I like to take a break from the gym in the warmer months and use the outdoor environment around me as my gym: hiking, going for a run, etc. But if you’re a gym freak, don’t worry; it’s all about baby steps. Make it a habit to turn off the individual television at treadmills and elliptical machines when you’re finished (and turn off others if you see them on). Bring a reusable towel with you and skip using endless paper towels. Forget bottled water and carry filtered water in a reusable water bottle instead. If you’re into yoga, look for natural rubber mats vs PVC-sticky ones; PVC is a non-renewable resource.”

couldn’t help but notice Miley’s fab Sergio Rossi heels! Sergio Rossi
is one of my favorite shoe designers.
