Let’s get ready to rumble. At least the Kardashian crew is. Kim and Khloe, along with brother Robert, stepfather Bruce, and Kourtney’s baby daddy, Scott Disick, will be boxing for charity Tuesday in L.A. Usmagazine has reported the five will be fighting the highest bidders, with all the proceeds going to the Dream Foundation. I am not sure what gave the Kardashian’s inspiration to slip on boxing gloves, but the event will be filmed for an upcoming episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashian’s, and I’ll be sure to check this one out!
Trendsetters are in agreement: go green! And I’m not just talking about for the environment, but for your nails. The dark, edgy black is being replaced by hues of green- in particular pistachio and deep forest green.

Cosmo Magazine also is loving the green, and both Usmagazine and Cosmo are showcasing one polish in particular: Chanel In Jade, available for $25 in stores. Beware, many of the popular polishes are actually selling out fast, get them while you can!
