Kristin Cavallari Shares How She Balances Life – in Heels!
I Heart Heels: Let’s talk shoes. What do you look for in a heel now that you’re a mom – has it changed your shoe style?
Kristin Cavallari: No, being a mom hasn’t changed my shoe style, I just don’t wear my favorite heels as much. I still wear heels when I can: for work, date night or girl time, but I’ve also learned how to love flats.
IHH: What can we expect from your Kristin Cavallari by Chinese Laundry shoe line for spring/summer?
KC: Trendy shoes like lace-up sandals and heels and some of my classic staples like an open-toe bootie that can be worn with everything.
IHH: Would you ever wear a kitten heel?
KC: Never say never, but they’re not really my style. The higher the heel, the better!
IHH: Healthy living makes up such a big portion of your lifestyle. How do you find time (!) to be healthy in both your eating and fitness?
KC: I make working out a priority. It helps me so much mentally and physically and keeps me sane, which ultimately makes me a better wife and mother! That’s the one thing that I make sure to do for myself. And eating healthy is all about preparation, especially for snacks, so I don’t grab the easiest, quickest thing. I try to meal plan a few days ahead and only keep good food in the house.
IHH: Amongst the craziness of all of your facets of life, how do you stay centered?
KC: Working out really helps me, even more mentally than physically. When I get a good workout in, everything else falls into place and I don’t get stressed or irritated.
IHH: How many hours of sleep do you get?
KC: It depends on the kids. Saylor just started sleeping through the night so now around 7-8 hours a night. I’m in bed early to make sure I get enough.
IHH: What brands will you be shopping this spring?
KC: Joie makes a great lightweight denim romper that I love and Rag & Bone makes great hats for spring and summer.
IHH: If you have one, single hour to yourself with no obligations, what do you do?
KC: The only time that ever happens is the hour after the kids go to bed before I start getting ready for bed myself and I either watch a show (right now I’m obsessed with The Walking Dead) or take a bath. If I randomly have an hour during the day I don’t know what to do with myself because it hardly ever happens!
IHH: What inspired you to write your new book, Balancing in Heels?
KC: I’ve come such a long way since the public was first introduced to me over 10 years ago, and I’m at a great place in my life, so I’m ready to let people in and share my journey of how I’ve gotten to where I am today with everybody.
IHH: Who will appreciate your book the most?
KC: I think girls in their late teens and women in their 40s and 50s can appreciate the book. I’m very open about everything in my life: my marriage, being a mom, etc, so I think women who are about to go through those phases and women who already have, can all relate. It’s also for anyone trying to live a healthier lifestyle.

Kristin Cavallari Shares Her Favorite Pieces from Uncommon James
May 1, 2017 @ 5:43 pm
[…] Kristin Cavallari is a rockstar mom. I mean, by now we’re pretty much besties. I can always count on KC to talk to me about her latest venture, whether it’s shoes or jewelry. My first interview was with her back in 2010 and my gosh, has she really made a mark on the world as a mom, a wife, an entrepreneur and just all-around cool girl that she is. I love a great success story like KC’s and I recently caught up with her again on her new jewelry line, Uncommon James. It’s subtle, it’s sweet and it’s incredibly chic. I’ve gotta get my fingers on these pieces pronto. I Heart Heels: What gave you the idea to start Uncommon James? […]
