Strike a Yoga Pose: Standing Hand to Big Toe D
We've made it to the last of the four Standing Hand to Big Toe poses in Ashtanga Yoga. This series is perfect if you're a runner or biker because not only does it increase flexibility in your hips and hamstrings, but it also strengthens your quads and core, and challenges your sense of balance.

Marni Peep-Toe Ankle Boots: Love It or Hate It?
I have mixed feelings about these Marni Peep-Toe Ankle Boots ($920). I love the cut and color, but I have an issue with the peep-toe. I wish the "peep" was a little bigger because no matter how skinny my toes may be, they'll never show through that tiny hole.
Just Say No to Toe!
We've followed the infamous camel toe throughout the ages and last December, Marc Jacobs took the toe to the next level at his Arabian Nights Christmas Party. Jacobs had the right message, but his delivery was all wrong. Since when does a mascot rally against the cause it stands for?
Product of the Day: Camel Toe Cup
Ever have that feeling that you aren't showing enough camel toe? (Yeah, me neither.) But these folks thought it would be hilarious to make a prosthetic cup that will reveal your lady contours for all the world to see, preferably underneath spandex leggings. Hey, silicone nipples that you can affix to your own to give you that permanent "walking down the frozen food aisle" look you so desperately desire already exist, why not this?
You Asked: My Toes Go Numb on the Elliptical?
Hey FitSugar,
When I use the elliptical machine, my toes go numb at about the 10-minute mark of my half-hour workout. Could this be caused be my stance? Or possibly my shoes?
Does a Broken Toe Require a Doc?
The other night, my husband accidentally kicked the wall and did a doozy on his toe. Normally I don't fall for it when he over dramatizes these things, but we all know that nothing hurts worse than knocking your toe on the door jamb. His toe quickly turned black and blue and he claimed it was broken.
Fab Tip: Boots Minus Blisters
There are certain boots you can't wear with socks. You know, the ones that make your socks slip off with every step. I recently experienced this with a new pair of taupe suede boots that are the same length as these Bottega Veneta Cutout Suede Ankle Boots ($1,090).
Strike a Yoga Pose: Standing Hand to Big Toe C
We're up to the third pose in the Standing Hand to Big Toe series. In Standing Hand to Big Toe A, your leg is straight out in front of you, giving you an amazing hamstring stretch. In Standing Hand to Big Toe B, your lifted leg is out to the side, so it feels amazing in your hips.
Celeb Style: Leighton Meester
The metamorphosis continues. Leighton looked like a knock-out a Swarovski event in NYC last night in galactic Marios Schwab. And special bonus: the Gossip Girl posing with GG costume designer Eric Daman — hi Eric!
You Asked: Numb Toes When Running Outside?
Dear Fit,
For a few weeks now, since the temperatures have plummeted recently where I live, I've been experiencing numb toes while running. Not only does it feel weird, but I'm worried that not feeling my feet will cause me to fall. Any suggestions about how to prevent this form happening?
