Where Do You Stand: Being Affectionate With Your Girlfriends

DearSugar — Wed, 28 May 2008 14:00:00 PDT

There's really nothing better than having a best friend - it's that unbreakable bond that makes for such a special relationship. But if you're a cuddly type, is being affectionate with your gal pal crossing the line of friendship?

Lindsay Lohan and her BFF Samantha Ronson might take it to an extreme, but last weekend Michelle Williams was photographed holding hands with her co-stars at the premiere of Adoration in Cannes in an endearing, supportive sort of way - something that I found very sweet. Now I know some people feel uncomfortable with PDA, but where do you stand on being touchy-feely (in a friendly manor) with your girlfriends?

Michelle Williams Shows Her Adoration

PopSugar — Fri, 23 May 2008 06:07:18 PDT

Michelle Williams has understandably taken some time off from red carpet events, but last night she was back with a vengeance. She looked happy and gorgeous at the premiere of Adoration in Cannes, a film that stars Scott Speedman and Rachel Blanchard. Michelle herself isn't in the movie, but maybe she just wanted to get a little warm up before the premiere of her Synecdoche, New York at the festival tonight.

Miranda Kerr Puts Away Her Bikini For a Shopping Trip With Flynn

Allie Merriam — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 07:43:02 PST

Miranda Kerr shopped in Sydney yesterday with her son Flynn Bloom. The duo stopped by a UPS store before hopping back into their car and heading home. Miranda, Flynn, and Orlando Bloom are in Miranda's native Australia visiting with friends and family. Miranda Kerr wore a bikini earlier this week for a particularly fun afternoon of drinking champagne and catching up with pals. Orlando was shirtless for the occasion, and the whole group of adults doted on adorable Flynn. Miranda has fit some work into her latest getaway Down Under. She's tweeted up a storm on behalf of her deal with Samsung Mobile, and attended the first-ever AACTA Awards as an ambassador from the David Jones department store.

A Doctor Dishes: Which "Superfoods" Are Worth the Cost?

LearnVest — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:15:00 PST

We're thrilled to present this smart LearnVest story here on Savvy!

Most people you speak to these days are trying to stretch every dollar as far as possible - even the ones they spend buying apples and oranges.

Food prices are expected to increase yet again this year, and food manufacturers are making portions smaller without reducing prices. Not surprisingly, a recent Rasmussen poll found that 93 percent of adults report paying more for groceries now than they did a year ago.

So how can we supercharge our grocery dollars and get them to do overtime for us?

Yes, some foods are obviously a better nutritional deal than others (think apples vs. potato chips), but there’s another class of foods that blows the rest of the field away in terms of nutrients and health-protecting qualities: superfoods.

Superfoods can help prevent diabetes and heart disease, repair damage to your body’s cells, and more. But before you go piling them into your cart, know that some superfoods are better nutritional bargains than others. As a doctor and a mom, I’ve sleuthed out which ones are worth the extra cost in terms of their long-term health benefits. Below is the scoop on which ones may help you age better, ward off cancer, and more.

What to Know Before Buying Superfoods

Before we dive into what to buy, there are a few important things to remember about consuming these foods:

Eating foods fresh and in their natural state, especially fruits and vegetables (rather than in pill or powder supplement form), usually allows us to absorb the greatest amount of their nutrients. The way a superfood is processed or cooked can significantly lower its antioxidant content.
If the superfood can’t be eaten fresh, look for easy and appetizing recipes containing it. No matter how “super” a superfood may be, if you don’t know how to cook it, you’ll probably let it go to waste.

Are Superfoods "Good Buys" If I’m Shopping on a Budget?

Foods That Can Make You Look Pregnant

Shape — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 04:29:06 PST

We are excited to share one of our fave stories from Shape here on FitSugar.

Over the weekend, I saw a photo of a female celebrity (who is in a relationship with a male celeb) leaving a café with the caption, "Baby bump?" and I had to refrain myself from shouting out loud, "Come on, can't a girl eat without the world thinking she's having a baby?!"

The truth is having a perfectly flat stomach all the time just isn't normal. After you eat or drink, food and liquids naturally expand your stomach and intestines, so at least a little "bump" is inevitable every single day. So if you regularly get stalked by paparazzi or you have family members who are anxiously awaiting news of a new addition, here's the lowdown on when you might get mistaken for being pregnant:

See which foods may make you look pregnant after the break!

You'd think a baby polar bear would be ready for a tumble in the snow from day one. Not so for Siku, the adorable orphaned baby bear from the Scandinavian Wildlife Park. His first venture into a cold white world took place this week at just under 4 months old! But clearly this little one has taken to it like . . . well, polar bears to snow.
