Equinox: When Your Gym Bag Is More Prada Than Nike

Hey, you in the stilettos! Half Moon Bay is calling. It says that cocktail may be yum, but it’s not exactly helping you in your quest for a body a la Adrianna Lima. Time for a trip to Equinox Fitness Clubs.

Treadmills, weights, that old locker-room smell… they’re usually so yuck. But not at Equinox. It’s part fitness laboratory, part Zen spa, part hot spot (yes, hot as in hottie). There’s no Jazzercise here.

We know cocktails. We know a good soiree. And you know we know stilettos.

Hello – because you know them, too.

That’s right. We’re announcing the iTunes debut of the second Strictly Social Diva digital comp – our release with top dance label Strictly Rhythm, remixed by The Wizard Brian Coxx. Yes, his track “Killing Me (feat. Sandy Spady) was on the original Strictly Social Diva release. (more…)

Suzannah Scully’s Manifest + Mingle Workshop

Of course you know everything. You prance around in those Louboutins like nobody’s business. You’ve got a Birkin full of tenacious and a calendar that would make even Oprah swoon.

Not only do you know exactly what you want, you know how to get there – and when you can take a lunch… a long one.

But sadly, “Money Prodigy” isn’t the best way to describe your status right now (yet!). Becoming a work-force wrecking ball sometimes constitutes some crashes.  (more…)

Swim, Bike And Run In The Sun With TNT

Trade Your Stilettos For Flip Flops

New Year, new you.  At least, that’s what you told yourself less than two weeks ago…

New Year’s resolutions be damned. You ate your weight in holiday cookies, and it’s still there. Admit it – it’s the same story every January, you haven’t stuck with the plan.

But this year is different – you’re not giving up.

Time to get serious – and what better motivation than a fitness program that will whip you into shape, give you lots of support and inspiration and send you off to seductive Hawaii to cross the finish line? (more…)

M.O.A.N.Y. NYE with Mike Posner

New Years in SF?  So many choices… if only your stilettos could be in more than two places at once.

Lucky for you and your stilettos, at the Regency Ballroom you can.  Who needs one dance floor when she can have five? That’s right.

Social Diva loves Eventbrite, a great place to discover SF events, and we love this hand-picked event – M.O.A.N.Y. NYE with Mike Posner.  Yes, as in Mike Posner.  Kelley James and other SF fave DJs will be there, too. Spinning like it’s Haute.

VIP? Yes that’s me. Enter through the VIP Express Entry, obvi, and from your elevated VIP table (with bottle service, of course), you’ll be able to scope the 50 pro bartenders.  I’ll take a martini stirred AND shaken, thank you. (more…)

TNT Gets You In Shape. What’s your New Years Resolution?

With All Due Resolution

You just bought a new pair of shoes, and for once, they’re not stilettos.  In fact, they don’t even have heels.

Wait, what???

New Year’s resolutions be damned. Admit it – you need those running shoes to keep you in check. Every year you resolve to get in better shape, but by V’Day (or should you say mid-Jan?), dark chocolate is as healthy as you get.  It’s got 60% cacao, right?

Time to get serious – and what better motivation than helping your community against a rocking, live band backdrop? (more…)

Tacori Fine Jewelry; Kiss My Jeweled Hands

Bracelet yourself

Your right hand’s all-bedazzled, and just in case, you’ve got your favorite diamond picked out. For future reference of course. Diamonds ARE a girl’s best friend.

Now it’s time to go Tacori on the rest of you. Those ear lobes weren’t pierced for nothing, and you definitely don’t keep your wrist that dainty just for your health.

Bracelet yourself, darling. These pieces were made for glitterati just like you. Colored gemstones plus filigree detailing plus mixed metal equals you dripping in jewels. You know dangles (and bangles) make the diva. Think Audrey Hepburn glamour mixed with modern day Angelina chic… and Brad Pit to boot.
