It also provides a great opportunity to socialize with co-workers and bosses within your company whom you normally don’t have a chance to mingle with. It all comes down to the simple statement “behave right and you’ll have a great night.” Here are some suggestions on how to stay professional while having fun:
- Prepare yourself mentally and show up on time
- Mingle and network: these are great things for your career
- Drink responsibly

Hope these tips help! Happy Holidays!

There are a variety of shows about to start this fall and it’s always interesting to see which ones swim and which ones sink!  You can’t walk down the street these days without seeing posters and other forms of promotion for all of them.  Even though school and work might be the focuses come the fall, at least you’ll have some great entertainment to end your day and start your night with!

Stock up on your favorite vegetables and keep portion control in mind when you’re buying snacks.  Keep almonds or a piece of fruit in your bag everyday so you are not starving if you are rushed between auditions and have to skip a meal.

If you work in an office, make sure you are bringing healthy food options to work and don’t let co-workers tempt you with their bad decisions!  Get inspired to cook healthy meals by trying out recipes in health magazines or surfing the web for tasty ways to eat healthy.  Most importantly, DO NOT deprive yourself!  You can eat anything you want and look great if it is done in moderation.  The combination of working out and eating right will make you feel fantastic about yourself as you work toward your goal to fame!

Are you in swimsuit shape yet?If not, it’s time to change up the way you’re working out. When it comes to your fitness routine, one month can really make a difference. So make exercising and eating right your focus this month. It just takes some time, concentration, and a little determination. Here are 5 ways to change your body in one month:

1. Eat every 3 to 4 hours. It’s better to eat small meals frequently than to starve or stuff yourself throughout the day. Eliminating most bad carbs and sugars is always a good thing but…
2. Don’t deprive yourself. If you want to treat yourself, go for it – just not everyday. Weekends can be your cheat days – just practice moderation and don’t over-do ANYTHING.
3. Find alternative ways to exercise every single day. Many people don’t have time in their schedule to head to the gym. If you can’t, you should walk, avoid public transportation, and start taking the stairs.
4. Don’t stop thinking about your goals. If you forget about your goals then you will throw off everything you’ve worked so hard for. Look online and in magazines if you think you can’t do it yourself. Create a support system of friends and family members who you can eat healthily with and workout with.
5. Remember, there is nothing wrong with a little help! There are helpful resources all around you. Try researching diets and exercise plans online and use their guidelines and helpful hints. Tell your friends and family about your new goals and believe in your ability to make healthy changes in your life.

Follow these 5 tips and I guarantee you will look and feel the great change in just one month!

We can’t wait to find out what new scandal will rock these devilish Upper East Siders as they navigate their way through the city and an endless maze of interlocking relationships.  But what really drives  viewers to tune in week after week?

It is nothing less than the stunning, amazing, and truly brilliant wardrobe selections of Queen B, Serena, and their crew.  The latest “It” bag, sparkly cocktail dresses, and stylishly sophisticated coats have become the envy of every chic woman across the country.  Now a new bible for the fashion set has hit the scene promising to bring you one step closer to looking like you very own Gossip Girl!  Who better than to pen this guide than the costume designer of Gossip Girl himself, Mr. Eric Daman.

Last night in New York the cast including; Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Jessica Szohr, and Michelle Trachtenberg strutted down the red carpet in support of Daman’s You Know You Want It. With a little confidence and pizzazz Daman says we too can work it in fabulous ensembles like Blair and Little Jenny.  “A catalyst for the book was that I wanted to send the message that fashion and style [don’t] have to be scary — [they] can be totally accessible” (PopSugar).   Maybe with the help of You Know You Want It your style will stand out and land you a role opposite Blake Lively in her new film The Green Lantern!

MTV casting directors looked for very specific types of people who fit the New Jersey Shore Guido stereotype for the club scene in Seaside, but they certainly do not represent the majority of Shore residents and visitors.

People love to make fun of these characters and I often see their tag-lines such as “creepin” and “GTL-ing” being used as on Facebook and Twitter.  If you haven’t seen Jersey Shore yet, you should check it out so at least you can form your own opinion on this controversial reality TV show…and realize that regualr people CAN become overnight stars thanks to reality TV!
