so rich: Pay Attention to Due Dates.


Parting with your hard earned money for shoes is easy. But, there is nothing fun about paying late fees.  It is bad enough that you have to spend your dollars on things like cable and electric. Don’t worsen the sting by missing due dates. Ideally, when a bill comes in, you should pay it right away. If this can’t happen for whatever reason, put a reminder in your calendar for five days before it is due. When the reminder pops up, pay the bill. Make a habit of this, and you’ll never throw away your new dress money on late fees again.

so skinny: If You’re Gonna Cheat, Make it Memorable.


Sure, planning your cheat days might seem like a good idea. But, when all is said and done you will end up spending your week obsessing about cheese and carbs. Cheat day will arrive, you’ll gorge, and then it will be a distant memory. Instead, cheat when it matters. Stick to your eating plan and deviate only in social situations. You’ll end up saving calories in the long run and wont miss out on any events due to cheat day guilt.

so happy: Colored Polish is a Commitment.

Your nails should look perfectly perfect at all times.  After all, they are one of the first things the world notices about you. Not to mention, when people see chipped nails, they can’t help but think about what else on you isn’t kept up properly. So, if you opt for colored polish, make sure to make it to your weekly nail appointment. Otherwise, go for a lighter shade or even go buff.

so happy: There is No Shame in Faking Fresh.


Every so often you will wake up, look in the mirror and say to yourself “OH. FUCK. Is that what I look like?” When this happens, don’t give into the sweat pant gods. Instead, throw on a dress, do your hair, and put on some make-up. Just because you feel gross, does not mean the rest of the world needs to know about it. Not to mention, chances are if you look good, you’ll feel better.

so skinny: Walking Does a Body Good.


With the exception of you New York ladies, you're probably way too dependent on your car. From now on, if an errand is less than a mile away, walk. Sure, the car is a bit faster, but walking burns calories. Burning calories makes you skinny. So next time you go to grab your car keys, stop and consider walking instead.

so skinny: If You Wouldn't Tweet It, Don't Eat It.


Gorging in public is embarrassing. After all, the person at the table next to you is judging you after every bite of that cheeseburger with a side of ranch. On the flipside, when spotted picking at a salad, your neighbors will look at you in admiration. So, from now on, before every meal ask yourself "Would I tweet a picture of this?" If the answer is no, don't eat it.

so happy: Prioritize Fun.


A life without fun, is a life not worth living. So no matter how crazy your calendar looks, make sure to take time to do the things you enjoy.  If you don’t, you will turn into a miserable bitch. And, well, no one likes a miserable bitch. Just remember, no matter what you did the night before, don’t skip the gym the next day.

so rich: Stockpile Party Dresses.


A good party dress is hard to find. They are even harder to find at the last minute.  Not to mention, if you wait until the night of an event to get a dress, you’ll probably end up spending a ton of money on a so-so number. So, from now on, whenever you’re shopping take a quick look at the sale rack. If you see a dress on sale that looks amazing, buy it. You will save money and look great all at the same time.

so skinny: Go to Bed Slightly Hungry.


Make a habit of closing your kitchen a couple hours before bed. This will you allow you to go bed a little hungry. When you wake up the morning you will wake up feeling extra skinny. That feeling will compell you to keep it up all day, thereby perpetuating a cycle of skinny. Keep this up for a few weeks, and you’ll never turn to late night eats again.

so skinny: Keep Your Coffee Simple.

Coffee is a beautiful thing. A cup of coffee is a natural stimulant with a mere  5 calorie price-tag  However, under no circumstances should you use your coffee as a vehicle to gulp dairy and  sugar (or even worse artificial sweeteners).  So next time you're at Starbucks keep the following rule of thumb in mind: If you wouldn't drink it solo, don't put it in your coffee. For instance, you would never down a shot of half-and-half with  a packet of Stevia, so don't put it in your coffee.

so skinny: Lamenting is for Fatties.

Inevitably, you will make a food mistake.  It happens to everyone. However, the manner in which you handle your hiccup is what separates you from the fatties.  Instead of focusing all your energy on what you ate last night, take positive  steps to make up for it the next day.   For instance, don't think about the bread basket you devoured at last night's dinner. Instead, focus on all the veggies you're going to eat today.

so happy: Nighttime Make-up is for the Night. 

Looking overdone during the day is trashy. Nothing screams ex-pageant girl like heavy make-up during daylight hours. Take a look in the mirror. If you look like it took you an hour to put your face on, you need to do some major tweaking. Aim for a natural glow. Remember, it's OK to spend an hour on your face as long as it doesn't look like you did.

so skinny: Protein Bars are for Fatties.



In the 90s, a whole bunch of fat girls chugged Slim-Fast in an attempt to get skinny.  It didn’t work. Today, those same girls eat protein bars. Don’t be that girl. Remember, protein bars are candy bars full of chemicals disguised in healthy girl packaging. Next time you need a quick snack, grab a handful of almonds or some baby carrots. Both are just as portable as a bar and you look way cuter eating them.

so rich:  Conservative Investments Are Where It's At.

Investing your money is really important.  After all, you want to be able to buy designer shoes well into old age.  Unless you still have your tooth-fairy money in the bank, you probably don't have a lot of room for financial error. Not to mention, making money off of high risk investments is like hitting it big at a casino.  So, talk to a financial advisor about finding some low-risk products that work for your budget.

so skinny: Eat Raw Kale Regularly.


For those of you who can’t kick the mindless eating habit, start carrying around a sandwich size bag of raw kale. Whenever you feel the urge to snack, take a couple bites of kale. More likely than not, this will kill your appetite. If it doesn’t, the calorie intake was minimal and you got some protein out of the deal.

so happy: A Tidy Home is a Must.


Regardless of whether you live in 10,000 square feet in the burbs, a tiny apartment in the city, or somewhere in between, keep your space neat and clean. If you live in chaos, your entire life will turn chaotic. On the flipside, if your home base is an orderly environment, your entire world will follow that in that direction. This alone is reason enough to keep things tidy. However, for some extra motivation, always keep in mind that visitors will judge you if you keep a messy house.

so rich: Use Online Banking Daily.


Every swipe-happy girl has experienced that “oh shit, how in the world did I spend so much money last month” moment. After all, girl’s nights, shopping and spa sessions all add up.  In order to avoid that gut-wrenching feeling at the end of the month, make a habit of using your online banking. Don’t just glance at your balance to see if you can swing a new pair of shoes. Really look and see where you are spending your money. If you notice that you’ve spent a lot in one area, make adjustments in another. For instance, if you booked a spontaneous massage on Tuesday, skip brunch on Sunday.
