Hadron Epoch x Holiday Party

LifestyleCandy WashingtonComment

Hi lovelies,

One of my favorite brands that I've partnered with this year has to be Hadron Epoch. Everyone there is super friendly and I'm genuinely in love with all of their products, especially my journals and day planners. 

This past weekend, we partied to celebrate the holidays at The Indigo Hotel starting with a VIP dinner with a tasting from their famed chef.

Then the party continued at the Penthouse with delicious food, yummy cocktails, a ton of prizes and swag bags. We kept the celebration going by dancing the night away to an amazing DJ.

Flirtar App x Augmented Reality

LifestyleCandy WashingtonComment

Hi lovelies,

Last night was the launch party for the very first ever augmented reality dating app, Flirtarknown as the “Pokémon Go” for dating by using state-of-the-art technology and smart algorithms to locate a match for you.

We danced at the exclusive upstairs area of Sky Bar at the Mondrian Hotel and hung out with Chloe Bridges and Brandi Cyrus, who arrived to celebrate Flirtar as well. I love how in the app you can see who's around you that's also looking to find love in a safe and secure way. 

Using cutting edge technology, the app will pin point nearby matches, while determining compatibility using a simple point of your mobile device by facial recognition. The app also goes a step further and triangulates exciting venues for the two of you to hang out.

Zola Organic Hydrating Energy Drink x Healthy Habits

LifestyleCandy WashingtonComment

Hi lovelies,

After a long night of celebrating the launch of the fall issue of La Palme Magazine, with cover stars Ariel Winter from Modern Family and Peter Faccinelli of S.W.A.T., at one of my favorite places, Nightingale, I’ve woken up early to meditate, go for a run, cook a healthy breakfast, and then settle in for a morning of writing and pitching. 

Then I’m off to a working lunch and another event with Vanity Fair at Jimmy Choo in support of Women’s Cancer Research, followed by a low-key dinner with another blogger friend to do some catching up. 

As you can see, the life of an influencer can be pretty non-stop because you’re your own boss and you’re constantly striving to make connections and take your business to the next level. 

Even though my schedule can get pretty busy, I wouldn’t give up being an entrepreneur and a #girlboss for anything in the world. This also means that I’m mindful to incorporate healthy habits into my daily routine to make sure that I stay active in a balanced and holistic way. 

Luckily for me, there’s Zola Organic Hydrating Energy Drinks to give me a healthy boost when I need to stay focused, energized, and hydrated throughout my busy days. The drinks are a combination of sparkling coconut water, green coffee and green tea extracts, and 230-249 milligrams of potassium. 

I’ve started to swap out my morning cup of coffee for a Zola Organic Hydrating Energy Drink. It gives me the same boost to start my day because the drinks contain 120 milligrams of organic plant-powered caffeine from green coffee and green tea extracts, providing me with the equivalent of two shots of espresso. 

I get a healthy jolt of energy without the jitters that I sometimes get from regular coffee and espresso and without the possibility of staining my teeth. My go-to morning flavor is the Zola Organic Hydrating Energy Drink in Matcha Green Tea

Before and after my workouts, I now make sure to hydrate with the Açaí Berry flavored Zola Organic Hydrating Energy Drink so my muscles don’t cramp and I can maximize my workout results and then replenish my body after sweating it out. Additional flavors include Pineapple Coconut and Dragon Fruit and you can pick yours up here.

LifestyleCandy WashingtonComment

Hi lovelies,

Taking the time to be a part of meaningful organization is super important to me. The Orthopedic Institute for Children (OIC) mission to prevent and treat illnesses and injuries in children is a cause that's worth supporting and really resonates with me. 

On Monday, I was honored to attend their benefit pre- dinner took place at newly launched restaurant, Les Coulisses, located in Los Angeles CA.

What made the night even more magical than learning about the OIC, was that we were able to dine with and special guest Peter Facinelli, who served as the evening host. Thie night's festivities was a pre -dinner in support of  the upcoming OIC “Swing for Kids Golf Classic” hosted by Craig T. Nelson, taking place Thursday, November 6th, 2017.

"Swing for Kids Golf Tournament is an annual fundraising event known for its unique on-course features, including tequila tastings, hand-rolled cigar bars, international cuisine pop-up tastings, and many other surprises. The tournament will kick off on Monday, November 6th at Palos Verdes Golf Club, Palos Verdes, CA. Funds raised from the event will benefit the Orthopedic Institute for Children (OIC). All proceeds will be used towards the building of a new Physical Therapy Center that will help kids heal faster,  better, and give parents the tools to aid in their child’s rehabilitation. Please see below images for your consideration, we would love to be included in your gallery."

Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center x Candy Washington

LifestyleCandy WashingtonComment

Hi lovelies,

Just because summer is winding down, that doesn't mean that we still shouldn't be working on our summer bodies. I love feeling happy, healthy, and strong all year round, which is why I'm committed to eating consciously, consistently exercising and moving my body, and making sure that I go in for my Exilis Ulta 360 treatments at the Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center.

Exilis Ulta 360 is at the intersection of diet and exercise to achieve your body goals. Besides the amazing, warm, and friendly staff at the Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center, my favorite part of the treatment is that it's non-invasive, there's no downtime, and it doesn't hurt.

After receiving my second treatment, this time with the lovely Sara Fowler, I saw results even quicker than the first time. Sara was kind, professional, and made me feel at ease during my entire treatment. She took the time to talk to me about my past experience and my future goals with Exilis Ulta 360. The treatment uses the power of radio-frequency and ultrasound to get rid of stubborn fat and bulge while tightening the skin.

My personal areas that need tightening and fat dissolving is my lower tummy and my inner thighs so that's what I've been focusing on during my sessions. I only have four more sessions to go before I complete the full cycle of Exilis Ulta 360, and I cannot wait to see the full results from my treatments.

Missed my experience during my first session? Then check it out here.

Let me know, what are your target areas for fat removal and tightening?

Physique 57 x Platform LA x Sweaty Betty

Hi lovelies,

Just because summer is winding down, that doesn't mean that there's still not time to sweat it out!

That's why this past Saturday morning I worked out with the lovely ladies from Physique 57 at Platform LA located in Culver City. We got fit, toned, and lean to an amazing DJ while sporting the latest designs from Sweaty Betty.

After our awesome workout that included using our own body weight along with a small ball, we were treated to Dream Pops, Juice Served Here, Evolve Protein Smoothies, and more.

What I love most about Physique 57 is that you can book a workout class and join in-person, or you can stream workouts so you can get fit from the comfort of your own home or while you're traveling.

The black, blue, and floral design of my Sweaty Betty leggings motivated me to keep going! Who doesn't love looking cute while working out? Plus, the leggings are specially designed to help sculpt your bum, so two birds with one fashionable stone.

Let me know, how are you staying fit these days?
