For those who meditate, I commend you for your patience. I have to practice yoga for my sore muscles need a stretch a few times a week, and I like having the time to breathe and be able to articulate my gratitude. I’m grateful for my girls, my family, and all of the wonderful people I have in my life.

Today, Dechen Thurman (also Uma Thurman’s brother and son of a Columbia professor) playlist included everything from 70’s songs about super hero good doer cops to Tibetan chants. And if his body and strength doesn’t inspire you, his lessons during class will take you on your own journey to self improvement. Today, we learned about listening. When is the last time you actually listened to what someone was saying.

Choose your words wisely, listen to what people are saying, and try to be discerning of the fundamental difference between complaining and venting with a purpose.

All in an 90mins: Hot body, hot mind!

After weeks of not knowing if the Knicks will play, I finally went to a game. Carmelo was flying all over the court against the Suns. And the newly renovated Madison Square Garden looks amazing and provides a more intimate almost next to the players feel. Gotta love our sports team. It takes courage, go Knicks.

Kicking off 2012 with a little shopping, my daughters and I stopped into the Miu Miu store in SoHo (100 Prince St., 212-334-5156). We were all immediately intrigued by the resort collection – perfect for those lucky enough to find sun and warmth during the colder months.

I love resort wear, which often forecasts spring trends. And it’s usually a smaller collection, meaning it’s packed with the best of the best, as opposed to larger spring lines.

This season, Miu Miu stole the hearts of both myself and my girls with its odd shapes – bubble skirts were prominent – and styling choices that included almost mismatched colors: Muted pale-pink leather minis with royal blue silk lace-trimmed blouses really stood out.

Now that mismatched vibe has become my inspiration for the month. I plan to mix patterns and colors, such as red and pink, florals and prints, polka dots and stripes. Here’s to a fashionably jumbled 2012.

Happy Holidays – From my family to yours!

This past year has brought so much good into my life and I’m thankful for everyone (including my fans) who have shared it with me. Although I’m sad to let go of another wonderful year, 2012 has so much in store. My book “ICANMAKEUHOT“, will hit bookshelves in Spring 2012 and my philanthropic ballet flats, which will raise money for Breast Cancer research, will be available in-stores in Fall 2012. Also, look out for the January and February issues of AVENUE Magazine, where I have recently began working as the guest Editor. In between these new projects, there will be a couple more surprises, but I can’t reveal too much right now! Just keep your eyes open for another amazing adventure with my girls and I.

Thanks for all your love and support this year!
