Are you starting to feel the (financial) pressure of needing as stylish a wardrobe for the gym as for going out? Stop sweating — or start! — because my online consignment fave Twice is now selling & accepting 20 fitness brands, as of this week.
When I was a little girl (like many of you, I’m sure), I fantasized about running away with the circus. There was nothing more fun and romantic to me than the idea of being a trapeze artist or an acrobat on a bareback horse. I love animals, and thanks to my dance, gymnastics, and figure skating competitions, was no stranger to either stunts or sequins.
Home with a sick (but on the mend!) dog since Monday, I’ve been watching a lot of the Wimbledon women’s tennis tournament. (Petra Kvitova was KILLING it all week long, and definitely deserved the big win today. But I digress.)
My friend Isabelle just moved to NYC and went to work for a new (to me, anyway) startup called Wahanda.
Last night, my sister and I took my mom to see Black Swan for her birthday, and — unlike most of the reviews and reactions I’ve read of Darren Aronofsky’s new film so far — I really loved it and found it to be absolutely beautiful, visually and narratively.

Before I wised up and started running for free, I spent certain decades as a gym rat. I also purchased a workout tape or two and still have the headbands and leg warmers to prove it.
Forget pricey gym memberships and personal trainers, Americans are re-shaping the future of exercise with some help from the past.
