Ashley shared, “I work out. When I first started, I wasn’t really working out, and my dad was like, ‘You need to find something that will de-stress you, becuase you’re constantly running all over the place.’”

“So I started doing yoga. When I work out, I can just be in the moment,” she continued, “Let go of all that stress and not think about everything that’s happening around me.”

BFFs Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens stepped out in Studio City earlier to day to grab a bite and showcase some pretty interesting getups – especially for first thing in the morning.

Tisdale, who usually is right on point style-wise, sported a Pink Floyd tee, paired with leggings and thigh-high, lace-up camel-colored boots that didn’t quite jive with the rest of her ensemble.  And Hudgens, ooooh don’t get me started – Hudgens showed up in a ball cap, red pants and navajo-themed blanket-jackety thing that looked like a reject from my grandmother’s last yard sale.

Girls, girls, girls – you’re better than this!
