Skinny jeans slim down

If you’ve been lucky enough to dodge pool parties or had a super adorable cover-up at the beach, whether you’re ready or not, jean season is upon us. Before you try to squeeze into the pair that’s never left the your closet, it’s time to get your pretty self in shape. For those of us who have a serious aversion to the gym or the elliptical machine just isn’t cutting it anymore, here’s the skinny on three new ways to get in shape.

Pole Fitness. Slim down and embrace your sexy side with a fusion of pole dancing, Pilates, yoga, burlesque and ballet. Bonus: you’ll build confidence, muscle and learn how to rock the pole. What more could a girl want?
