A Man and Woman Walk into a Bar and Order a Drink

This could get interesting.

A Man and Woman Walk into a Bar and Order a Drink

Ever walked into a bar, ordered off the suggested drink menu and found yourself watching the most elaborate cocktail ever created being made? Well, Alison Brie and Adam Scott share your confusion (and maybe slight fear) when they order a drink from a mixologist during Adam’s party and end up witnesses to slapping sage, blow torches and tap water from the Library of Congress. In the end, they grab a bottle of SMIRNOFF, some juice and hit the dance floor. Click here to watch it all go down! Capturing some of the elements that get in the way of having a good time with your friends, and bringing to life its new campaign Exclusively for Everybody , SMIRNOFF released a digital film ‘The Party’ along with six 30 second...Read More

Keep it Simple and Fun with SMIRNOFF

If you haven’t checked out SMIRNOFF’s ‘The Store,’ you’re late to the party—but don’t worry it’s not too late to catch up! SMIRNOFF keeps the ball rolling with six comical short videos celebrating the fact that good times are better when everybody is included, part of our new marketing campaign Exclusively for Everybody . This video, ‘ The Store ,’ pokes fun at the some of the ridiculous extravagant party essentials, like vodka made from potatoes that “look like famous people’s faces.” It’s funny to see some of the things people are buying these days as “must-haves” to bring their party to another level , when in reality all these extra items aren’t really necessary to have a good time. Checkout Alison Brie and Adam...Read More

Spring Slim Down

Spring Slim Down

I mixed up the above elixir in an effort to brighten my skin and boost my metabolism for spring. I've always loved  infusing my water  but I specifically chose the ingredients for this recipe to be healing and detoxifying. Did you know  cinnamon is believed to curb sugar cravings  and  lemon is a well known detoxifier , which means less swelling! For me personally, mint is a natural mood lifter and great for my sinuses and since allergy and pollen season is in full force here in Georgia, you better bet I'm stocking my garden with this stuff. For best results with this all-natural slim down drink, mix up a large batch each morning and sip it throughout the day. I recommend repeating this for 2-3 days in a...Read More

Healthy Cookie Bars with Blueberry Cheesecake...

When you need a sweet treat and not totally in the mood to blow your entire day’s caloric bank, you may want to try these Healthy Cookie Bars with Blueberry Cheesecake Filling. Yup — these are skinny! Well, skinny-ish… I was on the couch the other day running super low on energy and full of cravings I couldn’t kick. So what else should I do besides start scanning  Pinterest  – right? And then I was stopped dead in my tracks by these bad boys from  Food Leyhib . I looked at the ingredients and what a shame I don’t stock butter and cream cheese in my house. But not really! Because I only keep health optimizing foods on hand I had a feeling I could make some good subs. So...Read More

Winter Whites: Who Says You Can't?

Winter Whites: Who Says You Can't?

Jacket: Thrifted at  Temptations Boutique  // Jeans:  Express  // Handbag:  Coach  // Sunnies: Coach  // Boots:  Fergie The traditional fashion rule of not wearing white between Labor Day and Memorial Day most likely dates back to the early 1900′s. Fashionistas through the ages have questioned and challenged this “rule,” because 1) we like to question rules, and 2) no one to date has provided any solid evidence of this rule’s origin, or that it’s really even a RULE! We all just  know  it, right? Like cleanliness is next to Godliness, and we shouldn’t throw babies out with bathwater… Whatever. Coco Chanel famously challenged the...Read More
