La La Anthony knows a thing or two about being married to a pro baller.

When we caught up with her today at the Badgley Mischka show during New York Fashion Week, she told us what advice she gives Kim on how to keep her marriage going strong.

So what does she say her best gal should do to keep things sizzling for the long haul?

La La, who's starring with her hubby, New York Knick Carmelo Anthony, in La La's Full Court Life, says that with all that time Kris will be spending on the road playing basketball, the couple needs to get on the computer and start video chatting—all the time.

"The main tip I can give her is Skype is a lot of fun because with her career and Kris's career, you spend a lot of time on the road apart, and you've got to find ways to spice it up when you are apart," she told E! News.

La La says that the couple are also still in wedded bliss and that she and Melo are planning to double date with them soon.

"They're doing amazing. We haven't double dated yet because we just got back in town and Melo's been a little crazy and Kim is filming, but they're amazing. They're doing wonderful," she said. "She calls me, and I'm like, could you be any happier? She is truly happy and living in this moment."

As for avoiding any fights and dealing with separation issues while both keep up their careers, La La says it's all about trust. "I think trust is just something you should have with your mate, because if you don't, why the hell are you married to them? You just feel it, and the last thing you wanna be thinking about is are they behaving themselves?"

But while no double date is in the immediate future, she's thrilled she'll get to spend some downtime in the Big Apple with Kim.

"I'm gonna meet her today for lunch, and that's what's so cool about us both being here," she said. "We can just call each other and go, What are you doing at 2? And then we're like, all right let's go eat. Today will be fun. Her and I are really in need of some face time. We talk on the phone every day, but one-on-one face time, we need."

Even though the duo are soaking up the city, they're still searching for one thing in particular.

"We're still looking for a great mani-pedi spot. Everyone's like, Oh I have one. Kim is very particular about her nails, and we still have yet to find one that we like—that we die for. So we're on the hunt for that. I could care less, but she's particular."
