This past weekend Wellth Collective and Lifeway hosted a rejuvenating morning focused on wellness at the Refinery Hotel in midtown. The morning kicked off with a yoga class by Y7 Studio, known for its WeFlowHard Vinyasa classes. The instructor, Marissa, expertly guided the class through three sweat-inducing vinyasa flows. The 45-minute practice included balancing work, core-burning moves, and a soothing savasana to conclude.
This year’s gala theme, “Doll Test”, is inspired from the 1947 photos taken by Gordon Parks from the trailblazing experiment in the United States.
The Knockturnal chatted with Angela Vasquez of Haus & Hues to dish on all the best advice relating to decorating your space.
This is the year of fully living the lifestyle that you want.
At The Knockturnal, we like to try out all things fun and new in the beauty world—including visiting salons to try out exciting services on ourselves. Our latest venture? A trip to Smooth & Skinny in Yorba Linda.
As more beauty treatments began to become popular in the mainstream world, it’s important for us at The Knockturnal to continually try out all things new and exciting. Because of this we decided to try out an Endo-Roller service which includes “compressive micro vibration roller device that generates low frequency vibration,” according to the salon. Treatments such as these are meant to improve muscle tone, skin tone and reduce cellulite.
At a price of $100, it comes out to be a much more affordable alternative than trying out other treatments. Being as it improves your blood flow as well, the service itself feels like a nice massage all while going hard at work on your muscles.
While at the salon, I felt incredibly taken care of and appreciated having my practitioner patiently and thoroughly walk me through the process. Such treatments should always be completed with someone you feel comfortable around and luckily at Smooth & Skinny the staff is as kind as we’d hope for.
Perhaps more impressively is the fact that the salon offers a ton of different services at that price point such as Endermologie, Lipo Cavitation, Infrared Body Wrap and more. If you’re unsure what the right service is for you and your goal, Smooth & Skinny is able to help customize a package tailored to your personal needs. “Whether to lose inches, smooth and tighten your skin, and more,” reads the salon’s website. “We offer state of the art technology to achieve your goals effortlessly.”
Ahead of the holidays and the New Year, there’s never been a better time to work on your own goals (or purchase a gift card for someone else to enjoy).
Alberta Distillers announced the return of the famous Alberta Premium Cask Strength Rye on October 12. A call for celebration, on October 20, the brand hosted an exclusive tasting with a twist: a fitting for custom jeans by FITTED Underground.
Made from 100% Canadian Prairie rye grains and brewed in glacier-fed spring waters from the Rocky Mountains, the elixer took the U.S. by storm in 2020. Since, the brand’s Cask Strength Rye has received serval awards including Double Gold at both the 2020 and 2021 SIP Awards and the San Francisco World Spirits Competitions.
The award winning booze was sampled in two drinks the evening of the 20th on the rooftop at Sunset Park’s Brooklyn Grange. A rustic “Old Fashion” with Angostura Bitters, and a light “Rosemary’s Baby” with organic cider. In between sampling, guests received the opportunity to customize their fantasy jeans down to the logo on the buttons. A simple, but luxurious process. Through the customization of jeans, guests were also receiving a sneak peak of the whisky making process; which like jeans, requires patience and great craftsmanship.
This holiday season, treat yourself or the whisky lover you know to a bottle of Alberta Premium Cask Strength Rye while they’re still in stock.
