Denney’s tips for staying healthy during the holidays Edit Delete Unpublish Submitted by admin on Thu, 2014-11-06 12:16 Stay Active – It’s easy to get caught up in the business of the holiday season and stop working out.

A: I’m a “people person.” I enjoy talking and listening to people and their stories.

I’ve dressed up to go to work on holidays, decorated their rooms, told them jokes and even danced. Q: What is the most difficult aspect of caring for people?Read more about Life lessons from a veteran nurse

Don’t start it when you have friends visiting, a cocktail party to attend, or – in my case – a food issue of a magazine to produce.

(Seriously, avoid restaurants at all costs.)Read more about 4 lessons I Learned From

“For exploring the beautiful streets of Prague, I’ll wear something comfortable, but true to my minimal aesthetic: a Tibi slip dress, Givenchy jacket over my shoulders, Balenciaga sandals and a Marni crossbody bag.”

“Nothing beats this charming South Carolina beach town – for a trip with my family I’ll pack an easy J.Crew tee, Tibi striped linen trousers, espadrilles, a printed Kenzo backpack and a basic black swimsuit like this one from Lisa Marie Fernandez.”
