8 Chill SoCal Beaches for Labor Day Weekend!

8 Chill SoCal Beaches with Decent Parking!

Nobody likes insanely over-crowded beaches and negative amounts of parking spaces. Especially when it’s eight-thousand degrees outside in Southern California and all you want to do is shimmy down to your swimmies and (possibly) go into the freezing cold Pacific Ocean. Unfortunately, some of SoCal’s most popular attractions are its beaches, which means...

Jetpacking in Newport Beach, California

They say that traveling changes your life, and I’d definitely have to agree, because even when I’m home in LA, I find myself on a constant search for adventures and new things to try. Recently, one of those things was jetpacking, because, well, who doesn’t want to fly?! I scheduled a flight with Jetpack America on a sunny Wednesday afternoon, and...

5 Ways Valentine's Day is Better in LA

5 Ways Valentine’s Day is Better in LA

by Alyssa Ramos Valentine’s Day sucks. No one can win on Valentine’s Day. If you’re in a relationship, chances are one of you are getting anxiety wondering what the other is planning or getting, and will end up getting pissed if expectations aren’t fulfilled. If you’re just dating, you’re probably freaking out because this is...

L.A. Confidential's Pre-Grammy Party With(out) John Legend

L.A. Confidential’s Pre-Grammy Party With(out) John Legend

by Alyssa Ramos Last night, Los Angeles Confidential magazine had their pre-grammy party at The Beverly Hills Hotel in honor of their cover star, John Legend. Except…John Legend didn’t show up because he wanted to protest the prehistoric, bitter, homophobic, asshole who owns the hotel and believes in human torture. Hope I don’t get stoned to death...

Manny Pacquiao Movie Premier

Manny Pacquiao Movie is a Knockout

by Alyssa Ramos I may not seem like a boxing fan…and that’s probably because I’m not, but what I am a fan of, is inspiration. And inspiration is what I felt within minutes of watching the premier of Manny, the movie based on the constantly-ignited Philippine boxing champion, Manny Pacquiao, held at the TCL Chinese Theatre Tuesday night in Hollywood...

My Midwinter’s Day Birthday Soirée

This year’s birthday party was definitely the best one yet! It was a Midwinter’s Day soirée that started in the beautiful, sunny, Sunday afternoon at the breathtaking Tinsley Estate in Bel Air, and meandered on through the fiery sunset and into the evening. Gary Reisman captured the festivities, and even brought a drone to get aerial pics of the gorgeous...

LA's Hot New Way to Namaste - Poolside Yoga

LA’s Hot New Way to Namasté – Poolside Yoga

by Alyssa Ramos Screw hot yoga, if I’m going to be sweating in Downward Dog (or working out in general), there better be a pool involved. That’s why I was beyond excited when I heard about the hot new workout trend that’s been popping up privately around town – poolside yoga! But I’m definitely not just talking about your average...

Fourth of July in Malibu - Mastro's & Nobu

Happy Fourth of July to Uber – From, My $200 Ride

by Alyssa Ramos What you do for the Fourth of July typically depends on your relationship status. If you are in one, you’re probably watching fireworks at the beach with your bae (new word I learned from teens at Vidcon that means “before anyone else”). If you aren’t, you’re probably drinking your face off in celebration of #MERICA, f*k...
