Fresh off another season of competing on Dancing with the Stars, Karina Smirnoff took some time out in an environment that provided a different kind of pressure than she's used to in the ballroom.
In between taking in a performance by Natasha Bedingfield at the recent Lupus LA Orange Ball in Beverly Hills, the Russian beauty headed over to the event's Dyson vacuum table, where she talked about how her temptations were being tested that night.
"She said that with the show on its off-season, she has been making an extra effort to stay in shape," a source tells PEOPLE. "She said she was tempted inside the event by the edible centerpieces which were made out of cookies and other sweets."
According to the source, Smirnoff, who autographed one of the vacuums for charity, "came alone and looked cute in a red dress."

In typical Sex and the City fashion, Kristin Davis was spotted searching for a new handbag on Wednesday.
Attending the 9th Annual P.S. Arts Bag Lunch charity event at the Beverly Hills home where Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston used to live, Davis and Becki Newton looked around for the perfect arm accessory, but made a point to keep in mind that the bag couldn't get in the way of holding their babies.
According to an onlooker, both women tried on a Tom Ford brown ostrich bag that ended up being the highest bid item of the day at $6,000.
"Kristin carried around a fabulous, large Chanel bag and smiled from table to table as she checked out all the others," the event-goer says. "She looked beautiful in a floral garden dress with her hair down and flowing."
