A very solemn Jennifer Love Hewitt was spotted after her Pilates class (8/26).  Wonder why so sad...

Jessica Alba had great runner's form as she jogged through Central Park with her dad (8/29).   Aw, a father/daughter workout.  

And good ol' Hilary Duff was keep herself healthy internally as she visited a medical center in Beverly  Hills California (8/26).  

Katrina Bowden was looking anything but looking funny at Entertainment Weekly's Pre-Emmy party this weekend (8/27).

The '30 Rock' supporting actress rocked a black and nude THEIA cocktail accented with black matte sequins. Although I don't have an image of Katrina in the dress, I have an image of the dress.

Such a pretty look!

The Emmys were this Sunday (August 29th) and guess how some of your favorite celebs walked effortlessly down the red carpet and all night long in killer heels – the Foot Petals Red Carpet Kit!

This kit includes:

• 1 pair Black Killer Kushionz
• 1 pair Red Rose-Scented Killer Kushionz
• 4 pairs Black Tip Toes ball-of-foot cushions
• 3 pairs Red Rose-Scented Heart-Shaped Tip Toes
• 4 pairs Black Strappy Strips in tube

Some helpful tips from Tina Aldatz, certified pedorthist and creator of Foot Petals:

• Practice makes perfect! Walking properly is key to looking great & keeping your feet in top shape. Concentrate on stepping “heel to toe” – or placing the weight on your heel first, then rolling forward onto the ball of foot. This may seem like common knowledge, but it’s often overlooked.
• Double up on cushions! Ball of foot cushions help to absorb shock (the Tip Toes are great for this). 
• Flex your feet periodically to prevent muscle cramps in the calves.

Celebrity stylists Cristina Ehrlich and Jessica Paster have called in Foot Petals for Toni Collette, Kyra Sedgwick, Jenna Fischer, Christina Applegate, Dakota Fanning, Emily Blunt, Aubrey Plaza and Jane Adams.
