She's clearly embraced a love for all things fitness over last year.

In fact, Khloe Kardashian even has her own AMAZING, to-die-for workout closet that we've just added to our list of life-goals. 

Yesterday on her recently launched website, khloewithak.com, the 31-year-old reality TV star once again showed off her newly streamlined bod in a tiny black leotard. 

And there was certainly no missing her ASS either – a physical attribute Khloe emphasised to full effect with the high-rise cut of her one-piece swimsuit.

Marking the post, “all about that bass, get acquainted with my St. Barths booty,” Ms Kardashian opted to team her revealing attire with a pair of black Nikes and a black baseball cap. 

"There's no such thing as a vacation from fitness, so I made sure to schedule in a workout during my St. Barths getaway last month," she also revealed. 

"I went for a run in my bathing suit and Nikes, but while I was stretching, Joyce Bonelli (my makeup artist/BFF) and Hrush (my Armenian goddess makeup artist), kept urging me to do a little photo shoot and they just started snapping away lol.

"Just a 5 minute shoot but I got way, way into it!”

Earlier this year, the youngest Kardashian sister said that she shed a cool 35lbs from her heaviest weight: that's more than 15kg.

"I know how I want to feel in clothes, and it does become addictive," Ms Kardashian admitted. "Once you start losing weight and seeing results, you're like, 'I want to see more!'"

We love Instagram, and we're definitely not the only ones, because of late the photo-sharing app has hit a massive milestone of 400 million active monthly users.

As with all of our favourite things, it was only going to be a matter of time before something came along and ruined it for us all. We thought that Instagram had escaped the fate of so many others before it. Unfortunately, we were all wrong.

The latest feature to hit the app means that sponsored posts are now going to be making appearances in your feed.

Each advertisement will have a ‘Sponsored’ label to let you know that it is not part of your usual viewing schedule. You will be given the option to tap to hide any ads which don’t appeal to you.

This just means that the people behind the scenes at Instagram are then able to tailor the sponsored content which appears on your feed to that which you might be more interested in.

“Our aim is to make any advertisements you see feel as natural to Instagram as the photos and videos many of you already enjoy from your favourite brands.”

This is the first time that the free-to-download app has made moves to try and introduce official sponsored content on the app. Meanwhile celebs have been using the app to promote certain products by using the hashtags #spon or #sponsored.

We all know the feeling of picking out your favourite dress to wear to a party – only to notice five minutes later that there's a HUGE stain on the front. 

You look at the tag and it's dry clean only. Your problem? You have no time to get to the dry cleaners yourself!

Yep, that dreaded gut-punch scenario has happened to the best of us. But it won't anymore!

Irish start-up, Laundrie, has launched Ireland's first dry cleaning on-demand app. 

The smart phone service will allow users to get their dresses cleaned and clothing pressed with just a few clicks on the app!

The extremely convenient service will see Laundrie pick up your items at the location specified by the customer. It's also available seven days a week, at the time and date of the customers choosing. 

Even better, Laundrie is a fully Irish-owned business. Evan Gray spotted an opportunity in the market as people's lives are becoming increasingly busy.

We can all admit it's often a hindrance from your day-to-day schedule to drop into a dry cleaners; but this way you will save time and money. Score!

The premium dry cleaning service collects and delivers within a 48 hour turn around time. The app also provides free delivery and collection for all orders over €20.

Initially launching in Dublin, Laundrie plans to expand to the rest of Ireland in the coming months.

Speaking about the launch of Laundrie, Evan Gray said: "Following a number of years working in the white-collar industry, I saw a gap in the market for a more convenient way to service the cleaning needs of wearing a suit 5 days a week."

“Laundrie is basically like Hailo for your laundry requirements."

We like the sound of this one! Laundrie is currently available for free on AppStore.

For months she was seen at high-profile events sporting an array of eye-catching wigs in black, blonde and even blue.

Kylie Jenner later admitted the reason behind her love of artificial hair: her own tresses were seriously damaged after years of dyeing, styling and straightening.

However, the sacrifice seemingly paid off – and she marked her recent 18th birthday by swapping to a gorgeous ashy blonde.

"It took months of not dyeing my hair and wearing wigs to get my hair back to health so I can do this!!" she explained on Instagram while unveiling her new look.

So why is Ms Jenner, and just two weeks after the dramatic change, now back to wearing wigs?

Donning bright green, mermaid-style locks, she was on hand to launch the Sugar Factory American Brasserie in NYC – to which she also wore a stunning ivory crop top and matching pencil skirt from surprisingly affordable Aussie label, Zachery. 

Although known for her love of mega-expensive designers, Kylie's outfit cost just €125 in total – €52 for the top, and €72.50 for the skirt.

Still, it was very much her hair that proved the talking point of the event – with many fans speculating that the reality TV star's bleached mane is already suffering.

Indeed, in recent days her mop has certainly looked tired and stressed, with the originally 'dirty blonde' hue turning to a more brassy shade. 

As well as successfully launching the Sugar Factory, an event to which hundreds of fans and photographers showed up, Ms Jenner is enjoying something of a boon in popularity since turning 18 last month.

Despite the presence of numerous other high-profile celebrities, she and her rapper boyfriend Tyga, 25, have been the toast of New York Fashion Week.

Yesterday, she also modelled pieces from her brother-in-law Kanye West's new Yeezy season 2 collection, the unveiling of which took place at the Skylight Modern venue in Manhattan's swish Chelsea district. 

That and the app that she unleashed this week is proving to be a runaway hit.

And on social media, she is still the world's most viewed user on Snapchat, while on Instagram she now boasts some 36million followers. 

 

I love you guys so so much.

There is nothing worse than being the only one of your friends not going to a gig on a Friday night. Any music fans who were left behind while it seemed like half of the nation packed their bags for Stradbally this summer knows the feeling. 

However, a new app has launched that is set to make sure no one ever misses out again. Firstage is the world's first ever app that promises to bring live performances straight to your smartphone. 

The idea for Firstage, a self-funded venture created by Limerick native Keith Lawlor and Durham's Neil Harrison came when the pair were living in Dubai. Having both been playing in bands and making music themselves until they relocated to Dubai, they missed the live music scene in Ireland. 

Talking to The Ticket Neil explained:

“It was an amazing experience, but Dubai never had a strong music scene, so it was very difficult to gig consistently because there were very few venues,” he says.

Keith adds: “Then we started thinking about it and thought ‘Wouldn’t it be great if an Irish band could play in Dubai? Or an American band could play in China, or wherever?’”

So Firstage was designed to do just that; allow emerging bands and musicians without the money for international tours to perform around the globe using a virtual stage. 

They will travel to New York’s CMJ festival next month to spread the word about their app with music fans abroad. For now, they are concentrating on Irish bands:

“We want people to be aware of how much talent there is, because Ireland’s full of it.”

The Firstage app is available for download on Android now, and will be available for iOS users very shortly.

Khloé was one of five Kardashian sisters to launch her app earlier this week, although Kourtney’s is running a little late but we are promised it will arrive soon.

Each of the sibling’s apps promises to cover a plethora of topics and give us insight into each of their lives. Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are just not enough, obviously.

Kylie has already premiered her first beauty instructional video. Considering the family are famous for their trend setting contouring habits, we reckon there might be some duplicates coming shortly.

Khloé clearly saw this coming and decided to go down a different route, because she knows what the people really want.

We wanted snacks, and Khloé delivered.

Apparently in the past her Instagram shot of a beautiful flower arrangement got a lot of attention, but most of it was focused on her perfectly organised cookie jars in the background.

So Khloé decided to post an instructional video of how to stack your biscuits in a glass jar from Target because she can.

Possibly the most impressive part of the video is her ability to handle a ridiculous amount of biscuits and not eat a single one. She also does this every month.

We have one very important question: what happens to the leftovers? Because those biscuit packets are HUGE.

Also, as Jezebel first pointed out, Khloé’s snack-attack video could be a sign that she’s moving away from her sister’s beauty themed apps as they took note of how she hadn’t even downloaded her sister's apps.

Although she took to twitter to refute the claims:

When we think of learning Irish we generally imagine being in a stuffy classroom with scratchy polyester jumpers, fuzzy pencil cases and a TV on wheels lurking in the background.

The concept of sitting down for your morning commute to get in some conditional tense practice is far from what we ever imagined. However, that is exactly what is happening.

Thanks to the DuoLingo app, one million more people from all over the world are learning the Irish language. A moderator for the app’s website, AlexInIreland wrote:

“Dia daoibh, a chairde, I am here to inform you of a massive milestone just reached by the Irish course. That is, of course, 1,000,000 learners!”

Saying that the number “blows my mind” every time he thinks about it, Alex put the numbers into perspective for us.

He compared the number of people who have added a ‘cúpla focal’ to their repertoire as being the same number needed to fill Croke Park 12 times.

The app itself has gone from strength to strength in the last year, with Google becoming a key investor. Impressive. One of the reasons the app is supposed to be so popular is because of how much attention it requires. The app also appears more like a game than a textbook-type learning tool, making it more inviting for users to come back for more.

The Irish-language section has only been added to the app in the last year. Over one million people learning Irish means the app has allowed 7 times the number of native speakers to be reached.

In a blog post, Tinder announced it will be providing users with some interesting new updates. 

"Swipe up, up and away! We’re excited to give our users a new superpower, and a new way to swipe – UP. Introducing Super Like."

Now you have one definite way of making sure your crush knows exactly how you feel because once you swipe up on someone's profile, they get a notification to let them know you "super like" them. 

"The person you Super Liked will take notice – when your profile appears and they’re deciding whether to swipe right, it will show up with a bright blue footer and star icon, highlighting that you Super Liked them. And when they do swipe right on your Super Like, it’ll be an immediate match!"

It doesn't necessarily mean a swipe up will pair you up with the match of your dreams though. The other person will still have to decide if they want to swipe right or not. 

The app knows how important true love really is, so they don't want anyone to waste their opportunity at finding true love. Therefore, users will only get one Super Like a day. So choose wisely. 

One downside to the feature is that as of now it is only available in Australia, but the app will hope to ensure the feature will "roll out globally" later on this year. 

If you can't wait until then to see the magic blue star in action, then you can enjoy this elaborate trailer for the update:

If you are the owner of a smartphone then you more than likely use, or have been told to use Whatsapp.

The message app was bought by Facebook last year for almost €20 billion according to Bloomberg. Since then the app which allows you to share photos, videos and voice recordings with contacts easily, has been going from strength to strength.

One of the features of the service is a small detail that can mean an awful lot to some people. The ‘blue tick’ icon seen at the bottom of your message will allow you to know if the person you sent your message to has seen it.

Now though, there has been another interesting feature unearthed: Whatsapp will allow you to see who your closest friends are on the app. You just need to follow a few simple steps:

Next time you open the app, go to the settings section, then select 'account settings':

After that, you just need to go to 'storage usage' and all will be revealed:

The dreaded laundry day is about to get an awful lot easier for some of us.

ZipJet, a laundry on-demand service, has launched in Dublin as of today. So now there’s a solution for anyone who is either too lazy to do their laundry (looking at your students) or who just hate that particular chore.

The app was previously launched in London and Berlin. They offer a pick-up and delivery service of laundry and dry-cleaning and aim to return your fresh clothes in 24 hours.

The start-up was funded by Rocket Internet, the same people responsible for Groupon. The idea behind the service is pretty simple. Dry cleaning and laundrettes around the city can sign up with ZipJet and you can book your laundry in either using their app or on their website.

Florian Faerber and Lorenzo Franzi, founders of the company claim that they have washed 30,000 shirts in London and Berlin since they initially launched the project.

Silicon Republic reports a spokesperson for ZipJet as saying:

“We’re confident the Dublin market will view ZipJet with the same enthusiasm as our customers in Berlin and London.”

They currently have a staff of five in their Dublin office with four full-time drivers, depending on the success of the project we imaging they may look into expanding.

Speaking to TheJournal.ie the company explained why they chose Dublin to be their next location:

“Dublin is a very tech-friendly city – lots of urban professionals with busy schedules, working until 7, 8, 9 o’clock at night with little or no time to be doing laundry.”

Sound familiar? We feel like this could be a winner.

Have you ever been in the middle of the most rapid fire WhatsApp conversation with your BFF and thought ‘what emoji would Carrie Bradshaw have used?’

Well, now you can find out the answer. Candace Bushnell, author of the original Sex and the City novel, is transforming your texting and messaging limits with the launch of her new app.

The new and improved SATC themed emoji keyboard provides all the possible little symbols necessary for you to really bring your inner Miranda to the social media table.

The app is being launched in conjunction with Bushnell’s newest novel, Killing Monica. The page turner is supposedly an addictive story about love, fame and foolishness.

With all the trademark sassy humour that Bushnell introduced us to from the ultimate besties in SATC, we can only imagine her latest novel will be a good one.

In the meantime, if you’re not too keen on diving into a new novel, you can still relive some of your favourite memories of Carrie and the gang with the new app.

Are you in dire need of a decent cocktail on a Friday evening? Text your whole squad the champagne glasses emoji and you’re sorted.

There’s even a ‘sorry not sorry’ emoji for when you really just couldn’t be bothered. We feel like Samantha would most definitely approve.

The app is available on the Apple App Store for iOS devices.

In a bid to develop their software for women, Apple are improving ways to track your reproductive health with IOS 9.

The new IOS 9 update was announced by Tim Cook at the worldwide developers Conference on Monday, and there is a completely new feature available to users.

Apple's iPhone will now let people track exactly how often, when and how they have sex, so not only will you be able to track your work outs in the gym, but in the bedroom too!

Apple's iOS 9 update will add a new feature to the Health App under "Health Data."

The new feature titled "Reproductive Data" will track exactly how often, when and how the user has sex.

Users will also be able to enter information on whether protection was used, dates and times.

Once the information is entered the Health App will plot it on a chart or in a numerical read-out like it does will all other data such as calories or steps taken.

Apple keeps that data private by default, but you can choose to send it to your doctor or anonymously provide your information to universities and physicians for research studies.

The iOS 9 update will be available for all users this autumn but until then, here are some extremely useful apps for tracking your reproductive cycle on your smartphone.

1. Clue

2. My period tracker

3. My pill
