<b>Jaden Smith Frowned Face</b></h2>
<b><br /></b>
I am a big fan of Will Smith. His movies are just worth watching. Since am a fan of Will Smith, that has lead me into knowing Jaden Smith, his son. One thing i have noticed is that Jaden is usually frowned most of the times as you will see in the photos below.<br />
<br />
Everybody has his own pose styles when it comes to photography. Well, this might be Jaden's style.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Look at the wrinkled face.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://awesomelyluvvie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Jaden-his-parents.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="432" src="http://awesomelyluvvie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Jaden-his-parents.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
Even when he is with dad and mum, Jaden is still wearing a frowned face.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://awesomelyluvvie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/MIB3-premiere-Willow-Smith-and-Jaden-Smith.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="http://awesomelyluvvie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/MIB3-premiere-Willow-Smith-and-Jaden-Smith.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
Even when her sister wears a nice smile.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://awesomelyluvvie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Jaden+Smith+2012+BET+Awards+Red+Carpet+uYS5PAWtDlVl-1.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://awesomelyluvvie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Jaden+Smith+2012+BET+Awards+Red+Carpet+uYS5PAWtDlVl-1.jpeg" width="444" /></a></div>
<br />
Again with her sister, he still wears the same face.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">We must be happy that finally January has ended. I personally longed for February. For one reason or another, January is never the best month for me since i like spending on Christmas. </span><br />
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></b>
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">TGIF - Thank God It is February.</b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Much of the February hype, here now we go on dressing rules.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Know your prospect's uniform.</b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Before you meet with a prospect, you should know that company's dress code. "Business casual" has a lot of meanings. Call the front desk at the company and ask what the company's dress code is and what the men and women wear. Or ask your contact. The point is, part of your responsibility is to understand that company's culture, including its dress code. Ask for examples, especially of the senior most person who will be in your meeting.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Dress one step up. </b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">If your prospect is in denim, you wear khaki. They wear sport coats without ties; you are in suits without ties. The point is that you always dress one step further up the clothing ladder than your prospect, but </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">not</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"> two. One step says that you respect and value them. Two steps can send a loaded message. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">It's not just what you wear--but how you wear it.</b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Polished shoes, pressed shirts and well-fitted pants always. At this point, some of you are thinking, "Does he really have to say this to people?" while others are saying, "Why do I have to tuck in my shirt?" But when your clothes are pressed, buttoned down and well-fitted, you convey that you are a person who pays attention to the details and are professional </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Grooming trumps style.</b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Even if you're wearing a great suit, if you've got a terrible haircut, you'll give a bad impression. As crazy as it sounds, everything on the grooming punch lists - fingernails, facial hair, haircuts and oral hygiene--matter. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Know your company's uniform.</b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">One of my clients makes sure that when his sales reps are making their sales calls, they wear a very specific uniform. (His company's clients accept this because they see it as an extension of the brand; the company sells safety products.) It doesn't matter if the reps are presenting in a board room or on a manufacturing plant floor, they wear the sample simple uniform. Obviously, if you work at this company, you follow this dress code in order to fit in.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Remember, you can dress in a way where your attire is the only message people remember, or you can dress in a way that takes nothing away from the message of value your company brings to them.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>

Too many men are spoiling perfectly reasonable outfits by wearing the
wrong kinds of socks. While there aren't a lot of sock rules to follow,
there are actually a few that are key to making sure you stay on top of your game. Certain socks are
only for particular occasions,and certain colors only go with specific outfits.<br />
<br />
To make sure you’re not sabotaging your style,we bring you and edition of socks rules that men should adhere to.<br />
<br />
<h3>
White Socks Are Only For Sports</h3>
Probably one of the most violated rules of fashion -- wearing white
socks outside of sporting activities -- is all too common. Just the
other day, in fact, I saw a carefully groomed man wearing a decent
quality black suit with well polished black shoes, but when he sat down two
inches of white socks poked out of his shoes and totally destroyed his
look. This actually made me write this article.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
If you’re going to the gym, white socks are fine.<br />
</blockquote>
They’re
also fine, and actually even look better than black socks, if you’re
playing sports outdoors or going for a run. Apart from activities where
you’re going to generate a lot of sweat, however, white socks are a big
no-no.<br />
<br />
Lets capture players wearing white socks:<br />

<br />
Black socks only go well with jeans. Thus it is important you so section off your
socks to keep your white socks close to your workout clothes and
well away from your dress-up wardrobe.<br />
<h3>
Dress Shoes Require Dress Socks</h3>
If you’re going to wear dress shoes, you can’t wear athletic socks -- no
matter what their color. For example, it’s simply not enough that your
socks be black. The reason for this rule is the following: Athletic
socks are often bulkier than dress socks since they’re usually made of
heavier cotton or other materials, so they tend to bunch out over dress
shoes. Plus, athletic socks are frequently ribbed and the contrast of
cheap, ribbed socks against smooth, high-quality dress shoes looks odd.
Instead, wear dress socks with dress shoes. They’ll be easier to slip in
to your shoes and the finer, thinner material will mean that any
attention focused on your foot area will remain centered on your swish
shoes instead of your socks. <br />
<h3>
Match Your Socks With Your Pants, Not Your Shoes</h3>
When wearing dress pants
or casual pants, apart from jeans, the color of your socks should be
dictated by the color of your pants and not by the shade of your shoes.
Black pants should obviously go with black socks, and brown pants with
brown socks. The same goes for blue and gray pants. Choose your socks
carefully for pants in other hues. Try out a few pairs of socks if you
must in order to determine which socks match best with your pants. If
you’re in doubt, a darker color usually works better. The reason it’s
important to match socks with your pants is that when you have to take
your shoes off or sit down and your socks are exposed, socks that
coordinate with your pants make your outfit appear more fluid. On the
other hand, socks that don’t match your pants will break up an otherwise
awesome ensemble.<br />
<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
<br />
<h3>
Don’t Roll Or Fold Socks</h3>
<div href="http://acquire.askmen.com/deal/10460/put-your-feet-up-with-these-handsome-argyle-socks" target="_blank">
Aside
from looking like you’re stuck in the worst part of the '80s, rolling
your socks down around your ankles looks downright sloppy. Folding your
socks looks slightly neater than rolling them, but it’s still strange
because it makes your ankles appear bulky, especially when you wear
slim-cut pants. Just wear your socks pulled straight up, since doing so
will create a lean, coherent silhouette with even the most narrow-leg
pants.<br />
<h3>
Replenish Socks Often</h3>
Buy new socks at least once every six months to a year. You probably
don’t need to buy an entire new collection of socks, but you should buy
at least three new pairs.
Socks go through a lot of wear and tear, and since they’re often not
made from the best-quality cotton, they easily get holes. It seems
obvious to say, but so many people do it that it warrants comment: Socks
with holes make you seem like you were either too lazy to go to the
store and buy some new ones (not exactly the impression you want to make
on the ladies). In addition, socks that are worn out, have holes or are
seriously faded can devastate outfits that otherwise suggest you have a
great sense of style.
<br />
<h3>
Avoid Socks With Shorts</h3>
Another all too common sock mistake is wearing socks with shorts.
Committing this fashion error also inadvertently results in two further
faux pas. Inevitably, you’ll have to either roll, fold or scrunch up
your socks when you wear them with shorts since you won’t wear them
pulled straight up your calf -- at least we hope not. However, as we’ve
already discussed, rolling and folding socks also violates the rules of
proper sock etiquette. Second, wearing socks with shorts visually cuts
your leg almost in half, thus making your legs appear shorter and
stockier. If your body type is short and athletic-looking to begin with,
wearing socks with shorts definitely won’t do your appearance any
favors. Since you don’t want to go around wearing shoes without socks,
invest in a few pairs of ankle socks that are not overly visible when
you wear them with your sneakers. And for the record, steer clear of
socks with sandals.<br />
<h3>
No Socks In Bed</h3>
A friend of mine recently told me that her ex-boyfriend refused to take
his socks off while they were doing the deed. She then lamented what a
turnoff this behavior was. It wasn’t hard for me to empathize. On top of
the fact that wearing your socks in the sack looks utterly absurd,
girls like to play footsie with you, and it’s really not as much fun
with a foot that’s covered up. Also, sex is about skin-on-skin contact,
not skin-on-sock contact.<br />
<h3>
<b>Sock It To 'Em</b></h3>
While sock rules are not numerous, there are a surprising number of
people out there breaking them every day. Fortunately, picking the right
socks is not that tricky, and now that you know the dos and don’ts of
sock etiquette, selecting the correct pair of socks will come naturally
to you and you’ll never make a bad sock choice again.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>Things You will Need</b></u></span></div>
1. Clasp (including jump rings)<br />
2. 19, 21 or 49 strand flexible beading wire or beading thread<br />
3. Sterling silver or gold-filled crimp beads<br />
4. Super glue or GS Hyo Cement if using thread<br />
5. Crimp beads<br />
6. At least 4 small beads to protect your crimps beads and hide your wire or thread "tails."<br />
7. Beads of your choice (e.g., glass, stone, ceramic, precious or base metal, etc.)<br />
8. Crimping pliers or chain nose pliers<br />
9. Flush cutters<br />
10. Stiff, strong beading needles if using thread that does not come with an attached needle.<br />

<ul>
<li>If using bead thread, you may wish to put a dot of super glue of hypo cement on either end to ensure that the beads and crimp stay on.) These steps will protect the stringing material from rubbing on the ends of the crimp bead, which may cause the necklace to break.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Be careful not to pull the stringing material too tight. Leave a small amount of slack in the necklace (2-4 mm or 1/4 inch). This leaves room for the beads to move and rotate, so they don't rub on each other or the stringing material too much. If the stringing material is too tight the necklace will be rigid and this can make the design look angular instead of slightly rounded like a necklace should be.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b class="whb">Crimp the second end and cut the stringing material with slush cutters</b>. It is not recommended that you cut the wire too close to the crimp bead. 1 inch (2.5 cm) of wire, carefully hidden in the bead holes, is good insurance against breakage.<br />

<br />
<ul>
<li>More strands of stainless steel wire equals more flexible jewelry.</li>
<li>Beading wire with more stands should be used for projects with heavy or large beads.</li>
<li>Sterling silver or gold-filled crimps hold better than base metal crimps.</li>
<li>If you wish to sell your jewelry and you want the highest price possible, you must use high quality materials.</li>
<li>Before crimping the last crimp bead hold the necklace in the air to release any slack in the stringing material; otherwise, there might be too much slack when completed and the design will look sloppy.</li>
<li>Crimp covers can be used to cover the crimp bead and make the necklace look more professional.</li>
<li>Magnetic clasps are a wonderful option because they will release when pressure is applied, thus preventing the stringing material/necklace from breaking.</li>
</ul>

<div class="intro" id="intelliTxt">
Although dinner is usually a casual affair, there are times when a little extra attention to your wardrobe is appropriate. If you are going out for a dinner date, business meeting or other special event, it is usually expected that you will dress in at least semi-formal attire. The rules of semi-formal attire are obviously different for men and women, but the overarching guideline is the same: You should look nice without being overdone.</div>
<h2 class="Underline sectionTitle Heading2">
<span class="line">Instructions :</span></h2>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-size: large;"><u>Women</u></span></strong><br />
<div itemprop="step">
<ul>
<li><strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Go through your closet</span></strong> and choose several pieces of semi-formal clothing that you might like to wear. Semi-formal clothing includes dresses, nice skirts, blouses, fancy tops, business jackets and dress pants. Don't worry about mixing and matching pieces to create an outfit just yet. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
Examine the quality of each piece of clothing. Since semi-formal attire can be very similar to casual wear, one of the best ways to distinguish between the two is on the basis of quality. If any of the pieces that you chose are stained, frayed, washed out or poorly made, return them them to your closet.</div>
</li>
<li><div class="step">
Try on the remaining clothing. If it does not fit you well, it will highlight figure flaws and make you look poorly groomed. Return anything that does not fit to your closet. </div>
</li>
<li><div class="step">
Consider the <strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">colors</span></strong> of the remaining clothing. Is there one piece of clothing that really makes your complexion glow or helps to bring out the color of your eyes? This is the piece that you should wear and build the rest of your outfit around.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
<strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Consider whether or not you will need to coordinate an outfit</span></strong>. If it is a dress, your outfit is almost complete. If you have chosen a skirt, dress pants, shirt, blouse, or jacket, you are going to need to match it with other clothing.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
<strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Look through the clothing</span></strong> that you found to be good quality and nicely fitted. Does anything match the piece you selected? If so, this is what you should wear. If you are unable to find something, return to your closet. When trying to find something to go with your outfit, look for the best match, quality and fit possible.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
<strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Consider whether or not you will need outerwear</span></strong>. If so, pick out a high quality jacket or sweater that fits you well and compliments your outfit. Jean jackets, cashmere sweaters and pea coats are always excellent choices.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
<strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Pick out jewelry to compliment your outfit</span></strong>. In general, you should wear at least two pieces of jewelry, but no more than more four. The jewelry should be simple, but high in quality. Pearls, silver or gold chains, delicate beads, small hoop earrings, an understated ring and/or an attractive bracelet are all excellent choices. Avoid flashy costume jewelry.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
<strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Choose your shoes and purse</span></strong>. The two should at least compliment one another, if not match. Simple brown or black, closed toe heels are always a good option. You may choose another color, provided that it goes with your outfit and matches your purse. In general, stick to leather purses. Avoid purses made from canvas.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div class="step">
<strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">Do your hair and makeup</span></strong>, spending a little extra time to make it look really nice. Evening makeup should be darker and more dramatic than daytime makeup.</div>

<h1 class="entry-title">
<span style="font-size: small;">How to Tie a Scarf: 9 Tying Techniques....</span></h1>
<h1 class="entry-title">
<span style="font-size: small;">We
all like scarves. This rainy and cold season protect your neck and
chest. Get a scarf. They are cheap so no complains about expensiveness.
Remember, it is your neck and chest after all.<br />
</span></h1>
<div class="entry-content">
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200801.jpg" width="130" /></span><br />
There is an elegant quality that comes with a scarf, giving men and women who don one an extra touch of swagger.<br />
In
the winter time, you’re probably going to be wearing the same couple of
coats throughout the whole season. A scarf will add the perfect amount
of noticeable flair and variety to your outfit, not to mention the extra
warmth.<br />
One question you hear the most regarding scarves is, “What’s the best way to wear one around your neck?”<br />
There
are so many ways you can wear a scarf. The most practical ways will
only take you a few minutes to learn. Others, will take no effort at
all.<br />
Here are 9 different ways you can wear a scarf:<br />
<b> </b><br />
<i>Here are some excellent illustrations courtesy of texeresilk.com. </i><b><i>1. The Ascot Knot (or Loose Tie)</i></b><br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot1.jpg" /></span><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Let the middle of the scarf fall on the back of your neck with equal length on both sides.<br />
<br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot2.jpg" /></span><br />
<b>Step 2 </b> Take one end (A) and bring it towards the other (B).<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3 </b> Let A pass from under B.<br />
<br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot4.jpg" /></span><br />
<b>Step 4 </b> Bring A upwards to make a knot as illustrated.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5</b> Adjust both the ends equally facing downwards.<br />
This
type of knot is great when you’re wearing an open jacket, and you want
the same appeal that a necktie has. It also works great when you’re
wearing a turtle neck or a high collar jacket.<br />
<i><b><br />2. The Twice-Around Ascot</b></i><br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200802.jpg" width="149" /><br />
<img alt="" height="146" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot1.jpg" width="144" /><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Fold the scarf according to the basic fold 1 and let it hang around your neck equally on each side.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot2.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 2</b> Bring one side (A) towards the other side (B).<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3</b> Let A pass from under B.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot4.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 4 </b>Bring A towards the front.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5 </b>Let A pass through B again to form a knot.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot6.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 6</b> Adjust both the sides facing forward as shown in the illustration.<br />
This knot is the same as the first except that it goes around the neck twice. This techinque works best with a longer scarf.<br />
<b><br />3. The European Loop (or Slip Knot) </b><br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200803.jpg" width="130" /><br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip1.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Fold the scarf according to the basic fold 3 and then fold it again to form a sort of hoop.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip2.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 2 </b> Let the scarf dangle around your neck with the hoop on one side of the shoulder.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3 </b>Take the other end (A) and bring it towards the hoop.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip4.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 4</b> Let A pass through the hoop to make a European loop.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5</b> Tighten the loop to get the complete effect.<br />
This
knot can be made shorter by folding the scarf in half again after the
first time. This type of knot goes well with a short jacket, which you
can also tuck the scarf into and zip up. This is one of my personal
favorites. It looks best in cold weather, and works well with both
casual and business outfits.<br />
<i><b><br />4. The Fake Knot</b></i><br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200804.jpg" width="125" /><br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake1.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Fold the scarf according to basic knot 1 and let it drop down your neck equally on each side.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake2.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 2</b> Make a knot on one side (A).<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3</b> Bring the other side (B) towards A.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake4.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 4</b> Let B pass through A to form a knot.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5</b> Tighten the knot to get a beautiful fake knot.<br />
<b><i><br />5. The Neck Tie</i></b><br />
Tie your scarf as you would a regular <a href="http://www.kinowear.com/blog/how-to-tie-a-tie-the-pursuit-of-the-perfect-knot/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #222222;">neck tie</span></a>
– a Windsor knot looks best. This can only be done with a lightweight
scarf. This is a very business appropriate look that would go create
with a 3/4 length coat.<br />

<b><i><br />6. The Twice-Around </i></b><br />
Place
the scarf around your neck so that the two ends are at your back, cross
the ends at the back of your neck and bring them around to the front.
This is great for a casual oufit. For example, a simple solid jacket
with jeans.<br />
If it’s not cold out, wear it loose for a more laid-back appeal:<br />

<i><b><br />7. The Toss</b></i><br />
This
one is so easy: Hang the full length of the scarf around your neck with
one side hanging down about one foot more than the other, then take the
long end and cross it over your neck, tossing it behind you and over
the opposite shoulder.<br />

<b><br /> </b><br />
<b><i>8. The Classic Drape</i></b><br />
Simply
drape the scarf around your neck and tuck it into your coat, covering
the chest area left exposed by the coat’s neckline. If I’m wearing an
overcoat, I like to do this, and close my jacket over it, checking that
the scarf is evenly under my jacket collar.<br />
Another way to use a scarf is to pop up your jacket collar and place it underneath:<br />

Get a Trench Coat Please. It is no doubt that the chilly weather is getting the best of us
this holiday season. For those who live in places where rain is
pretty frequent, a full length
trench coat is the perfect solution to protect yourself and your
clothes.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Even
football managers over the continent have not been left behind with the
likes of Alex Ferguson, Robert Mancini, Andres Villas Boas, Jose
Mourinho and Pep Guardiola adopting trench coats to keep them warm
during the football games.<br />
<br />
<b>Why are these coats so great and what benefits do they
offer that other coats do not?</b><br />
<b> Warmth:</b> The trenches usually have an insulated
lining that helps to protect the person wearing the coat. This extra
lining will keep out the wind and rain, but will also keep the wearer of
the coat very warm.Say no to coldness.<b> </b><br />
<b>Length:</b> It is long enough to protect
all of your clothes from the rain. Since the rain will come down in all
directions and the wind may blow it further, a long coat is much better
than a shorter coat.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

They are perfect for men and women. There are different
styles and men's trench coats are very different from women's. However,
the style is made for both and often times, a woman can grab a man's
trench and wear that if she needs to.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Nice style: </b>The <b>full length trench</b>
is still very stylish and classy. The belt at the waist helps to keep
it more form fitted, but can also be forgiving for those who have more
of a mid-section. Women can belt these coats fashionably and even tie
them in a nice knot. Men can wear the coats unbelted and open or closed. <br />
<b>Durability:</b> It is usually
made of a heavy duty cotton drill or poplin, both of which are
waterproof. This makes these coats very durable, and can thus endure harsh weather. A normal leather coat or cotton coat will
get wet very easily, but the trench will keep you dry for a longer
period of time.<br />
<b>Shopping for an Trench coat</b>:<br />
<div class="stepMeat">
<div itemprop="step">
<ul>
<li>Budget what you can afford. You need to know what you are able to spend and how much
flexibility your budget has before you start to browse the different
choices and face temptations.</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Take options. There are
many choices out there, so you will want to check them out before you
make your decision.Consider the color, length, size and style the trench coat has before purchasing. </li>
<li>Shop around. It may sound difficult, but don't just buy the first trench
coat that fits and is in your price range. You may not find a better
deal elsewhere, but there's always a chance that you might.
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<b>Tips:</b><br />
Consider buying a few trench coats in
different colors, weights and lengths.Make sure the trench coat is big
enough to fit over a sweater or light blazer. <br />
Have the sleeves on a trench tailored to fit, if needed.<br />
<div>
Avoid a trench coat that is too big or doesn't hang well on your body. This can make you look sloppy. <br />
Stay away from coats with too many details on the shoulders or chest that can overwhelm your frame if you are petite.<br />

<b>Things to wear with a Trench Coat:</b>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Shift Dress</span></b>
Pairing a shift dress with a
trench coat is a classic look. If the weather is too cool to wear a
shift dress alone, a trench coat can provide needed warmth in a
fashionable way. The trench coat should hit around your knees. The
bottom of your shift dress might stick out past the trench coat, which
is fine. This gives a preview of what you're wearing underneath.<br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Bright Colors</span></b>
<span style="font-size: small;"> <span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Trench coats usually come in
neutral shades like tan or black. Brighten up this drab neutral with
some color underneath. Bright colors are a welcome surprise when paired
with a neutral trench coat. A brightly colored blouse creates an
unexpected pop of color when worn with a classic trench. For fall and
winter, consider jewel tones like jade or a deep purple. For spring and
summer, go for brighter hues like yellow, orange, fuschia or aqua.</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRv6khW4dgscAs83tOeYajhxGMZjqQLg9QNSzlTGwOmW21mj3Wv2l1ZNFY" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRv6khW4dgscAs83tOeYajhxGMZjqQLg9QNSzlTGwOmW21mj3Wv2l1ZNFY" /></a></div>
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Skinny Jeans</span></b><br />
Skinny jeans provide a nice
contrast with a trench coat. Since trench coats usually flare out below
the waist, they balance well with skinny jeans, which have a tapered
leg. Whereas a trench coat with boot cut jeans might provide too much
fabric, a trench coat with skinny jeans provides just the right look.
Wear your skinny jeans with boots or high heels to give added length to
your legs.<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Nautical Stripes</b><br />
Trench coat can complete your
look with nautical striped clothing. Pair a horizontally striped shirt in a classic color like navy,
white or red with your neutral trench coat. The striped shirt calls for a
solid jacket, and the trench coat fits the bill. Wear this look with a
pencil skirt or your favorite pair of skinny jeans for a clean, classic
look.</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Floral Prints.</span></h1>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: small;">There are many ways of wearing floral prints.Many people think of them as for skirts only, but the reality check is that you can use them for earrings, hair bands, attaching them on a hat, on your wrist as a watch accessory, or on your sandals.</span></div>

Flower designs can range from dainty and delicate to big and bold, each kind carrying its own personality and character.</span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">We’ve all seen traditional floral prints,maybe you wore them when you were young but you never realised they are so fashionable. While this look will continue to be popular, this year you can also expect to see a more contemporary take–large, statement-making graphic florals, on tops and dresses. There are even floral leggings and tights.</span> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">Be edgy.</strong><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"> With the right outfit, floral print can also have an edgy feel. Instead of picking small patch florals, try a larger print in darker colors. As a bonus, these darker florals can be worn into cooler seasons, too!And you know what, we are approaching winter. Another way to give your floral look an edgier vibe is to pair a feminine floral with tougher accessories. Think a floral print dress with a leather jacket , or floral print leggings and a black tunic. Mix and match for a look that’s all your own!</span> </span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Stay on top of your game</span></blockquote>
<b style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">Use the Same Color Pattern.</b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">Once you chosen a floral print, match the floral with the rest of the clothing. Pay attention to pattern's colors, choose one or two, then work around your choices. From the small details to the most prominent shade, any color in the print is fair game. Because floral prints typically come in multiple colors, you’ll have multiple styling possibilities.</span><br />DressPoa Blogspothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07895575493086601895noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349790512878604980.post-72883882416933621662012-03-05T17:30:00.000+03:002012-03-05T17:30:31.896+03:00New Rules for dressing well<b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Know your prospect's uniform.</b><br style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Before you meet with a prospect, you should know that company's dress code. "Business casual" has a lot of meanings. Call the front desk at the company and ask what the company's dress code is and what the men and women wear. Or ask your contact. The point is, part of your responsibility is to understand that company's culture, including its dress code. Ask for examples, especially of the senior most person who will be in your meeting.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" /><b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Dress one step up. </b><br style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">If your prospect is in denim, you wear khaki. They wear sport coats without ties; you are in suits without ties. The point is that you always dress one step further up the clothing ladder than your prospect, but </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">not</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"> two.

At this point, some of you are thinking, "Does he really have to say this to people?" while others are saying, "Why do I have to tuck in my shirt?" But when your clothes are pressed, buttoned down and well-fitted, you convey that you are a person who pays attention to the details and are professional </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" /><b style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Grooming trumps style.</b><br style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Even if you're wearing a great suit, if you've got a terrible haircut, you'll give a bad impression.

(His company's clients accept this because they see it as an extension of the brand; the company sells safety products.) It doesn't matter if the reps are presenting in a board room or on a manufacturing plant floor, they wear the sample simple uniform. Obviously, if you work at this company, you follow this dress code in order to fit in.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #5b5b5b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Remember, you can dress in a way where your attire is the only message people remember, or you can dress in a way that takes nothing away from the message of value your company brings to them.</span><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03032474634076510345noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349790512878604980.post-40205889660992364692012-02-21T16:29:00.004+03:002012-02-21T16:29:46.907+03:00Thanks to our Viewers all over the WORLDI would like to thank all our blog readers who take their time to view my blog and get fashion ideas.<br />

Before you meet with a
prospect, you should know that company's dress code. "Business casual"
has a lot of meanings. Call the front desk at the company and ask what
the company's dress code is and what the men and women wear. Or ask your
contact. The point is, part of your responsibility is to understand
that company's culture, including its dress code. Ask for examples,
especially of the senior most person who will be in your meeting.<br />
<b>Dress one step up. </b><br />
If
your prospect is in denim, you wear khaki. They wear sport coats
without ties; you are in suits without ties. The point is that you
always dress one step further up the clothing ladder than your prospect,
but <i>not</i> two. One step says that you respect and value them. Two steps can send a loaded message. <br />
<b>It's not just what you wear--but how you wear it.</b><br />
Polished
shoes, pressed shirts and well-fitted pants always. At this point,
some of you are thinking, "Does he really have to say this to people?"
while others are saying, "Why do I have to tuck in my shirt?" But when
your clothes are pressed, buttoned down and well-fitted, you convey that
you are a person who pays attention to the details and are
professional <br />
<b>Grooming trumps style.</b><br />
Even if
you're wearing a great suit, if you've got a terrible haircut, you'll
give a bad impression. As crazy as it sounds, everything on the grooming
punch lists - fingernails, facial hair, haircuts and oral
hygiene--matter. <br />
<b>Know your company's uniform.</b><br />
One
of my clients makes sure that when his sales reps are making their
sales calls, they wear a very specific uniform. (His company's clients
accept this because they see it as an extension of the brand; the
company sells safety products.) It doesn't matter if the reps are
presenting in a board room or on a manufacturing plant floor, they wear
the sample simple uniform. Obviously, if you work at this company, you
follow this dress code in order to fit in.<br />
Remember, you can dress
in a way where your attire is the only message people remember, or you
can dress in a way that takes nothing away from the message of value
your company brings to them.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03032474634076510345noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349790512878604980.post-68908646187936447192012-01-18T10:24:00.002+03:002012-01-18T10:24:17.035+03:00Dress According To Your Body Size<br />

your best is largely about figuring out which garments, cuts, color
combinations, and fabrics play up your best assets. Here we review what
you should add to (and what you can toss from) your closet if you have
a short body type. We’ve also included an easy-to-use guide so that the
next time you hit the stores, it will be crystal clear what you need to
stock up on in order to enhance your appearance.</span><br />

A Short Body Type Defined</span></h3>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #5d5d5d; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">In
North America, a man is considered to have a short body type when his
height is 5'6" or less. With regards to frame, men with short body types
may be slim, muscular, athletic, or heavyset. A short body type also
means that either your legs or your torso are shorter than average.</span><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><h3 style="color: #2d2d2d; font-size: 16px; line-height: 28px; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 25px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none; text-transform: capitalize;">
Pros And Cons Of Dressing A Short Body</h3>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Dressing
any body type is always about accentuating what’s great about yourself
and downplaying features that you don’t love. In several ways, dressing a
short body type can be easier than one that’s very tall as it’s always
easier to have clothing shortened to fit you but it’s near impossible to
have garments lengthened. Additionally, shorter men are in luck these
days as shrunken coats and trimmer fits are not only back in vogue, but
appear to be here to stay in some form or another, making it easier to
find flattering,fashion-forward clothing. Particularly if you happen to
be lean, there are a wide variety of designers that produce clothing
suited to your body type. For example, to find really sharp,
sophisticated clothes, seek out European labels; for cool, urban
threads, look to Japanese designers who turn out style-conscious lines
that fit the proportions of their countrymen, who are on average
slightly shorter than their Western counterparts.</span><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Having
a short body type often means, however, that mass-market clothes,
particularly those found in American chains, will be too large for you.
This clothing tends to be geared toward a restricted number of body
shapes, so finding your size in these stores will prove more difficult.
Additionally, the more you deviate from average height, the harder
clothes shopping will be.</span><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><h2 style="color: #2d2d2d; font-size: 16px; line-height: 28px; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 25px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none; text-transform: capitalize;">
Dress Your Body Type: The Guide</h2>
<h3 style="color: #2d2d2d; font-size: 16px; line-height: 28px; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 25px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none; text-transform: capitalize;">
Fit </h3>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">At
any size or height, the fit of a man’s clothing is the determining
factor in the impression his appearance leaves on others. Proper-fitting
clothes convey professionalism, good taste, attention to detail, and a
certain authority. Ill-fitting garments, alternatively, suggest
character traits such as sloppiness and laziness, even if you don’t
actually possess those qualities.</span><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">To
ensure your clothing belongs in the former category rather than the
latter, hunt down the services of a reputable tailor. Take every pair of
pants you buy, including jeans, to him so that your bottoms are always
the correct length. What you’re aiming for is to avoid any bunching at
the bottom and for your hemline to graze your shoes. Your pants should
also have a plain hem, as cuffs have the effect of breaking a smooth
seam, thus, visually cutting inches off your frame. At the store, forego
extremely tapered or baggy pants, opting instead for pants that sit
higher on your waist (without looking geeky) if you have short legs.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #5d5d5d; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">For
tops, begin by shopping for pieces that visually draw the eye up toward
your face. These include dress shirts with straight-point collars and
blazers with peak lapels. Avoid anything that focuses attention
downward, such as deep V-necks or double-breasted blazers and sweaters.
To help elongate a shorter torso, wear your shirts untucked whenever
possible. Shirt cuffs that are too long will have the unfortunate effect
of making you look like a boy, so ensure that only about half an inch
of your shirt cuff is visible when you’ve layered a button-down
underneath a blazer or sweater.<br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" /><br style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" />When
shopping for blazers and structured coats, favor those that are
ventless and cut short, meaning that they end at or just above the curve
of your butt, as this style will extend the line of your legs. Finally,
when in doubt, defer to your tailor and have your dress clothes custom
made. That way, your shirts will fit properly around your armpits and
you can also ask your tailor to set your breast pocket higher on your
blazers and your trouser pockets slightly lower for a superior,
elongated look.</span><br />

Colors And Patterns</h3>
In terms of choosing colors and patterns for
short body types, what will look best on you may be more determined by
your weight and frame than your height. For example, short men can wear
stripes between one-quarter to three-quarters of an inch, with
wider-framed men wearing stripes spaced further apart. Short and stout
men should also stay away from heavily textured weaves like herringbone
or houndstooth, as they add bulk and draw the eye down, though slimmer
men shouldn’t feel shy about wearing these patterns. Dark, solid colors
will help heavyset men look slimmer while lighter colors are more
appropriate for lean men.<br />
<br />
Regardless
of what the number on your scale says, however, there are a few points
related to color and pattern that short men can keep in mind. First,
whether you’re wearing dark or light colors, short men benefit from
wearing ensembles in which all the garments come from the same color
family as it creates a fluid, elongating line (this is called
monochromatic). More specifically, a stark contrast between your top and
bottom half is not recommended as it will visually cut you in half.
Finally, short men should wear shirts with small prints and patterns,
eschewing large windowpane checks or oversize plaid.<br />

Dress Your Best: More Tips</h2>
Short men can also make use of a few
tricks in the accessories and grooming departments to help them look
their best. To begin with, simple accessories are better because they
won’t overwhelm your shape, and this uncluttered look will also keep
attention focused on your face. The best ties for short men are those
that are narrow or midsize rather than broad. Wide belts are also a
no-no for short men, so select narrower waistbands and belts. To
lengthen the vertical line of your body, you can experiment with hats,
dress shoes with a slight heel and short hairstyles. Finally, find
inspiration for how to dress and what to wear by checking out shots
of style icons from your grandfather’s generation, as they tended to be
shorter and you’ll learn a lot from their classy sense of style (FYI:
Sammy Davis, Jr. was 5'3").<br />

It’s a rare man who can throw on virtually any outfit and seem
as though he just stepped out of a fashion spread, so if you’re like
most men, you know that a bit of effort is involved in achieving a
stylish look. Everyone has to take certain aspects of what they were
born with into account when dressing each morning and if you have a
short body type, now you know exactly what you need to do (or not do) to
make the most of yourself.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03032474634076510345noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349790512878604980.post-54283381247136825852012-01-04T16:39:00.002+03:002012-01-04T16:39:28.663+03:00Questions from clients and Answers<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">

Don’t worry, kid. Budget-conscious scarves abound. For warmer climes,
look for cotton and linen ones long enough to layer loosely around the
neck. Colder weather calls for super soft merino wool -- the poor man’s

Looks like your tailor is subscribing to an old rule of thumb: let the
jacket journey to a point where your hands can cup the bottom. For suits
made in this century, you just need to get the jacket to cover your

It is no doubt that the chilly weather is getting the best of us this holiday season. For those who live in places where rain is
pretty frequent, a full length
trench coat is the perfect solution to protect yourself and your
clothes.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS5zwGhVc-X6ZIGMzf8ds0TNJiQZ5y5ya194FJTCRL4hYkOJOjZrQ" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS5zwGhVc-X6ZIGMzf8ds0TNJiQZ5y5ya194FJTCRL4hYkOJOjZrQ" width="141" /></a></div>
Even football managers over the continent have not been left behind with the likes of Alex Ferguson, Robert Mancini, Andres Villas Boas, Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola adopting trench coats to keep them warm during the football games.<br />
<br />
<b>Why are these coats so great and what benefits do they
offer that other coats do not?</b><br />
<b> Warmth:</b> The trenches usually have an insulated
lining that helps to protect the person wearing the coat. This extra
lining will keep out the wind and rain, but will also keep the wearer of
the coat very warm.Say no to coldness.<b> </b><br />
<b>Length:</b> It is long enough to protect
all of your clothes from the rain. Since the rain will come down in all
directions and the wind may blow it further, a long coat is much better
than a shorter coat.<br />
<br />

They are perfect for men and women. There are different
styles and men's trench coats are very different from women's. However,
the style is made for both and often times, a woman can grab a man's
trench and wear that if she needs to.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Nice style: </b>The <b>full length trench</b>
is still very stylish and classy. The belt at the waist helps to keep
it more form fitted, but can also be forgiving for those who have more
of a mid-section. Women can belt these coats fashionably and even tie
them in a nice knot. Men can wear the coats unbelted and open or closed. <br />
<b>Durability:</b> It is usually
made of a heavy duty cotton drill or poplin, both of which are
waterproof. This makes these coats very durable, and can thus endure harsh weather. A normal leather coat or cotton coat will
get wet very easily, but the trench will keep you dry for a longer
period of time.<br />
<b>Shopping for an Trench coat</b>:<br />
<div class="stepMeat">
<div itemprop="step">
<ul>
<li>Budget what you can afford. You need to know what you are able to spend and how much
flexibility your budget has before you start to browse the different
choices and face temptations.<span class="stepNumber"></span></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Take options. There are
many choices out there, so you will want to check them out before you
make your decision.Consider the color, length, size and style the trench coat has before purchasing. </li>
<li>Shop around. It may sound difficult, but don't just buy the first trench
coat that fits and is in your price range. You may not find a better
deal elsewhere, but there's always a chance that you might.<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<b>Tips:</b><br />
Consider buying a few trench coats in different colors, weights and lengths.Make sure the trench coat is big enough to fit over a sweater or light blazer. <br />
Have the sleeves on a trench tailored to fit, if needed.<br />
<div>
Avoid a trench coat that is too big or doesn't hang well on your body. This can make you look sloppy. <br />
Stay away from coats with too many details on the shoulders or chest that can overwhelm your frame if you are petite.<br />

<b>Things to wear with a Trench Coat:</b>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRCtzTfceEApaHK56wPevTYz1VSjsc9PB9zlm7bEuMYOi1HNvVL" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRCtzTfceEApaHK56wPevTYz1VSjsc9PB9zlm7bEuMYOi1HNvVL" width="156" /></a></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Shift Dress</span></b>
Pairing a shift dress with a
trench coat is a classic look. If the weather is too cool to wear a
shift dress alone, a trench coat can provide needed warmth in a
fashionable way. The trench coat should hit around your knees. The
bottom of your shift dress might stick out past the trench coat, which
is fine. This gives a preview of what you're wearing underneath. <span style="font-size: small;"></span><br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Bright Colors</span></b>
<span style="font-size: small;"> <span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Trench coats usually come in
neutral shades like tan or black. Brighten up this drab neutral with
some color underneath. Bright colors are a welcome surprise when paired
with a neutral trench coat. A brightly colored blouse creates an
unexpected pop of color when worn with a classic trench. For fall and
winter, consider jewel tones like jade or a deep purple. For spring and
summer, go for brighter hues like yellow, orange, fuschia or aqua.</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRv6khW4dgscAs83tOeYajhxGMZjqQLg9QNSzlTGwOmW21mj3Wv2l1ZNFY" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRv6khW4dgscAs83tOeYajhxGMZjqQLg9QNSzlTGwOmW21mj3Wv2l1ZNFY" /></a></div>
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Skinny Jeans</span></b><br />
Skinny jeans provide a nice
contrast with a trench coat. Since trench coats usually flare out below
the waist, they balance well with skinny jeans, which have a tapered
leg. Whereas a trench coat with boot cut jeans might provide too much
fabric, a trench coat with skinny jeans provides just the right look.
Wear your skinny jeans with boots or high heels to give added length to
your legs.<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Nautical Stripes</b><br />
Trench coat can complete your
look with nautical striped clothing. Pair a horizontally striped shirt in a classic color like navy,
white or red with your neutral trench coat. The striped shirt calls for a
solid jacket, and the trench coat fits the bill. Wear this look with a
pencil skirt or your favorite pair of skinny jeans for a clean, classic
look.</div>

<h1 class="entry-title">
<span style="font-size: small;">How to Tie a Scarf: 9 Tying Techniques</span></h1>
<div class="entry-content">
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200801.jpg" width="130" /></span><br />
There is an elegant quality that comes with a scarf, giving the man who dons one an extra touch of swagger.<br />
In
the winter time, you’re probably going to be wearing the same couple of
coats throughout the whole season. A scarf will add the perfect amount
of noticeable flair and variety to your outfit, not to mention the extra
warmth.<br />
One question you hear the most regarding scarves is, “What’s the best way to wear one around your neck?”<br />
There
are so many ways you can wear a scarf. The most practical ways will
only take you a few minutes to learn. Others, will take no effort at
all.<br />
Here are 9 different ways you can wear a scarf:<br />
<b> </b><br />
<i>Here are some excellent illustrations courtesy of texeresilk.com. </i><b><i>1. The Ascot Knot (or Loose Tie)</i></b><br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot1.jpg" /></span><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Let the middle of the scarf fall on the back of your neck with equal length on both sides.<br />
<br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot2.jpg" /></span><br />
<b>Step 2 </b> Take one end (A) and bring it towards the other (B).<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3 </b> Let A pass from under B.<br />
<br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot4.jpg" /></span><br />
<b>Step 4 </b> Bring A upwards to make a knot as illustrated.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/ascot5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5</b> Adjust both the ends equally facing downwards.<br />
This
type of knot is great when you’re wearing an open jacket, and you want
the same appeal that a necktie has. It also works great when you’re
wearing a turtle neck or a high collar jacket.<br />
<i><b><br />2. The Twice-Around Ascot</b></i><br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200802.jpg" width="149" /><br />
<img alt="" height="146" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot1.jpg" width="144" /><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Fold the scarf according to the basic fold 1 and let it hang around your neck equally on each side.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot2.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 2</b> Bring one side (A) towards the other side (B).<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3</b> Let A pass from under B.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot4.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 4 </b>Bring A towards the front.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5 </b>Let A pass through B again to form a knot.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/twiceascot6.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 6</b> Adjust both the sides facing forward as shown in the illustration.<br />
This knot is the same as the first except that it goes around the neck twice. This techinque works best with a longer scarf.<br />
<b><br />3. The European Loop (or Slip Knot) </b><br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200803.jpg" width="130" /><br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip1.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Fold the scarf according to the basic fold 3 and then fold it again to form a sort of hoop.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip2.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 2 </b> Let the scarf dangle around your neck with the hoop on one side of the shoulder.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3 </b>Take the other end (A) and bring it towards the hoop.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip4.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 4</b> Let A pass through the hoop to make a European loop.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/slip5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5</b> Tighten the loop to get the complete effect.<br />
This
knot can be made shorter by folding the scarf in half again after the
first time. This type of knot goes well with a short jacket, which you
can also tuck the scarf into and zip up. This is one of my personal
favorites. It looks best in cold weather, and works well with both
casual and business outfits.<br />
<i><b><br />4. The Fake Knot</b></i><br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200804.jpg" width="125" /><br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake1.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 1</b> Fold the scarf according to basic knot 1 and let it drop down your neck equally on each side.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake2.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 2</b> Make a knot on one side (A).<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake3.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 3</b> Bring the other side (B) towards A.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake4.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 4</b> Let B pass through A to form a knot.<br />
<img alt="" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/fake5.jpg" /><br />
<b>Step 5</b> Tighten the knot to get a beautiful fake knot.<br />
<b><i><br />5. The Neck Tie</i></b><br />
Tie your scarf as you would a regular <a href="http://www.kinowear.com/blog/how-to-tie-a-tie-the-pursuit-of-the-perfect-knot/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #222222;">neck tie</span></a>
– a Windsor knot looks best. This can only be done with a lightweight
scarf. This is a very business appropriate look that would go create
with a 3/4 length coat.<br />
<b><i>More simple ways to wear a scarf:</i></b><br />
<b><i><br />6. The Twice-Around </i></b><br />
Place
the scarf around your neck so that the two ends are at your back, cross
the ends at the back of your neck and bring them around to the front.
This is great for a casual oufit. For example, a simple solid jacket
with jeans.<br />
If it’s not cold out, wear it loose for a more laid-back appeal:<br />
<img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200805.jpg" width="148" /><br />
<i><b><br />7. The Toss</b></i><br />
This
one is so easy: Hang the full length of the scarf around your neck with
one side hanging down about one foot more than the other, then take the
long end and cross it over your neck, tossing it behind you and over
the opposite shoulder.<br />
<b><i><br /> </i></b><br />
<br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200806.jpg" width="173" /></span><br />
<b><br /> </b><br />
<b><i>8. The Classic Drape</i></b><br />
Simply
drape the scarf around your neck and tuck it into your coat, covering
the chest area left exposed by the coat’s neckline. If I’m wearing an
overcoat, I like to do this, and close my jacket over it, checking that
the scarf is evenly under my jacket collar.<br />
Another way to use a scarf is to pop up your jacket collar and place it underneath:<br />

<br />
<b>9. The Wrap Around </b><br />
<span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" height="200" src="http://www.kinowear.com/images/12200807.jpg" width="150" /></span><br />

There are many varieties of ladies jackets though it is hard to distinguish them when you spot a lady wearing them. Thus,that is why i decided to bring a spot light in to this article.<br />

This type of leather jackets is usually defined by its unique collar.The collars are usually overlayed and oversized to give you a warm sensation around your neck and thus with this type of jacket,it is not a must to have a scarf with you. On the inner side of it,it is usually covered with warm cotton to give you a warmth feeling.<br />

Determine how often and where
your prospective new shoes are going to be worn. Most
women don't take this into account when they walk past a shoe store.
They simply spy a trendy pair of heels in a window and immediately
think, "I'll have to find something to wear with those!" It is good to decide whether the shoe will be official purposes or just for going to church. If your job requires you to stand for long periods of time,
for instance, or if you do lots of walking, you'll want a comfy fit and a
lower heel. If you're buying shoes for a sightseeing trip, a rubber
sole will provide more traction than synthetics or leather.</div>
</div>
</li>
<li class="step">
<span class="stepNumber"></span>
<div class="stepMeat">
<div itemprop="step">
Buy your shoes in the morning. The
reason is that human feet swell up a bit as the day goes on;
accordingly, footwear that was purchased in the morning may pinch your toes by the time you wear them in the evening.</div>

Have your feet measured by a salesperson in the store. Many people think that their shoe size doesn't change once whey grow up.
Age, weight gain or loss and pregnancy, however, all affect the size of
feet . It's for this reason that it's also good to do a yearly "shoe
purge" of footwear that you've had for a long time.</div>
</div>

<li class="step">

<div class="stepMeat">
<div itemprop="step">
Stay up put to your shoe size.If you wanted a certain size and you have not found it,don't take a larger size just because you like that model of shoe.</div>
</div>
</li>
<li class="step">Walk around the shoe store to
determine how comfortable the shoes are before you buy them. The toe
area should be comfy and allow your toes to wiggle a little bit. If your
shoes feel too loose, you run the risk of your feet sliding back and
forth (resulting in surface irritations and ugly heel blisters) or
stepping out of them completely and losing your balance. The shoe should
also have a flexible upper (the top part of the shoe) that gently bends
when you move your feet, and the interior should have sufficient
cushioning in the toe and heel areas to absorb contact with hard floors
and cement.<br />

market for sturdy hiking shoes that will require you to wear thick
socks, take the socks with you when you go the shoe store. Most people
forget this because the walking shoes are either an impulse buy, or
they're wearing thinner socks (or no socks) when they make their
purchase and thus don't account for the extra layer that will be filling
up the inside of the shoe or boot.</div>
<ul>
<li class="tip">Always have your
feet measured while you're standing up, not while you're sitting down.</li>
<li class="tip">Just like
clothing, a size 7 shoe isn't going to be a universal fit across
different manufacturing lines. If you're buying several pairs of shoes
in one trip, and they all carry a different designer label, try each
pair on instead of assuming that the second and third will fit exactly
like the first.E.g A size 7 shoe from Adidas is not the same as a size 7 shoe from Bata or any other shoe manufacturer.</li>
<li class="warning">Never buy
tight shoes with the expectation that they will soften and loosen up
over the course of time. If they are painful to wear in the shoe store,
they will not become any less so after you take them home.</li>
<li class="warning"><span id="goog_659597794"></span><span id="goog_659597795"></span>Never
allow yourself to be pushed into buying a pair of shoes that aren't
perfect. Exercise patience and move on to the next store if you don't
find a right-fitting pair in the current one.</li>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTZ_UDDYd0MijJ1g5MmLzWvQWuLIApX2KjMaVdRhGDctc1K_1wtwiRCC-Q" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="124" src="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTZ_UDDYd0MijJ1g5MmLzWvQWuLIApX2KjMaVdRhGDctc1K_1wtwiRCC-Q" width="200" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">It is evident that the season is around the corner.It can be felt all over as several companies have started giving away end-year prizes t their loyal customers.You should not be left behind in awarding your best friends.This is the season when you should have saved enough to surprise your friends,relatives and your family with gifts.SO, do you have to be rich to afford gifts?No.you don't have to be.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It can be hard to search out the best Christmas gifts for teenage guys along with everyone else on your own Xmas buying checklist. But, getting something exciting and cheap for your special someone on the checklist is very possible. Below am going to describe what you should consider when choosing a Xmas gift.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRNU9CjS3Glmump6fO_mT1SVb_vbM1cXBRAwzp6mYbs1gSYkiQWhA" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRNU9CjS3Glmump6fO_mT1SVb_vbM1cXBRAwzp6mYbs1gSYkiQWhA" width="200" /></a></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Choose the Right Measurements</b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Even though you may have a decent idea of what size your good friend or significant other would wear, unless you have quick access to their closet to check, sizing could be difficult. Especially with customized items like jeans, skirts and shoes. Nobody wants to get a shoe that is too small for his/her foot or else big for him/her.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSCwaFkePrhshVtgfWgyCraKG2ThmOAE_HcL-wtY8LgbadT_MVh" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="132" src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSCwaFkePrhshVtgfWgyCraKG2ThmOAE_HcL-wtY8LgbadT_MVh" width="200" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">A stylish solution to the dimensions issue is to choose an accessory as an alternative. How about a shawl, bag or bit of jewelry? These items are one size suits all, so they really are ideal for all people on your checklist.</span></blockquote>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b> <br />
The Ideal Color</b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Exactly what coloring to acquire is yet another general challenge whenever apparel searching for a gift.This is because everybody has got his/her own taste of colours.Like for me, a green shoe or a t-shirt is just a no no no.SO what if i just received one for a gift?I would just keep it in my closet never to wear it or give it away. The best option is to acquire one thing in a shade which they presently wear often. <i>Certainly keep in mind what the particular person loves to wear, not what you think they ought to wear.</i></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">To choose an ideal colour,go shopping with that person and you will know the color he/she likes. You can then go back later on so they may still be stunned on Christmas morning. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTA7lYxGTfq4zzfN9k1aGP6kNLD-sL9O96N7Fpb58ASFNSLYSl-" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="68" src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTA7lYxGTfq4zzfN9k1aGP6kNLD-sL9O96N7Fpb58ASFNSLYSl-" width="200" /></a></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>What if he/she prefers something different?</b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This is so challenging so you have to shop in places that give you receipts as nobody wants to give away a cheap price.This is because the person may want to return the prize in exchange of another.Numerous shops can give you a particular receipt for returns and exchanges. This doesn’t add the selling price on it, yet has a barcode with that information in case the particular person decides to take it back. This can be a sure way to make certain that they will obtain just what they really want.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Remember,gifts vary.The gift you would buy for your mum is not the gift you would buy for your uncle or a campus mate.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">With that, have a cool time choosing your Xmas gifts for your friends.</span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03032474634076510345noreply@blogger.com117tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349790512878604980.post-48813695759827099592011-11-11T08:16:00.001+03:002011-11-11T16:04:42.763+03:00Happy BirthDay DressPoa<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><script type="text/javascript">

When somebody looks at you;he/she is most probable looking at you from the toe to the top or from the head to the toe. That tells you that when his/her eyes reach the middle of your body and notices a fab belt,he/she will obvious cast his/her eyes more to it.This is because belts do complement your looks no matter what other accessories you have worn. There are dozen ways of wearing belts creatively. We're always searching for fun, clever ways on how to wear belts that flatter our figure, keep things in place, and generally help our outfits look as awesome as we dream them to be. Consider the following list of tips and tricks a an inspiration guide to thinking outside of the belt-loops!<br />
<a href="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS4oYEyDZYN_OOsDZMh511C-FMnzRs2I9VAFzkNmcKZfLgn_2MNtA" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS4oYEyDZYN_OOsDZMh511C-FMnzRs2I9VAFzkNmcKZfLgn_2MNtA" width="123" /></a><br />
Wearing any kind of belt can be challenging, especially when you’re shy about drawing attention to your waistline. On the other hand, belts are fun and useful accessories that have the potential to add a whole new dimension to your wardrobe.
Wearing belts effectively over tops and dresses is a marriage between the style, colour and position of the belt, and the style of top. That’s a lot of variables! So it’s really hard to cover all belt solutions for all body types. Even if I took you shopping, I’d end up experimenting right there with you in the store because there are few tried and tested rules in this area.<br />
<blockquote>
The Tips Below Apply To Ladies Only:</blockquote>
<br />
<b> Find your perfect spot</b>: Position is important. Sometimes your sweet spot will be a little higher than your natural waistline and sometimes a little lower. When you’re regular bust size and carrying a little extra around the midriff, positioning a belt just above the waistline is usually the sweet spot. When you’re short-waisted and well endowed, positioning a belt lower than the waistline in front and at waist level in the back is often the solution. If you’re long wasited, wearing a belt high on the natural waist is usually most effective.
<b> </b><br />
<br />
<b>Contrast:</b> Once you’ve found your sweet spot and the best widths(explained below) for your frame, you have a choice between making the belt contrast or blend in with your outfit. A low contrast belt is usually best for waistlines which aren’t that defined, giving you a flattering long lean line. Whereas a high contrast belt automatically draws more attention to the waistline.
<b> </b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQD792Vd8YERcwGyToBbAr9PBNlDNiTdhG6aJBgCuJxwZIIOBDsYOqh4OAU" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="108" src="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQD792Vd8YERcwGyToBbAr9PBNlDNiTdhG6aJBgCuJxwZIIOBDsYOqh4OAU" width="239" /></a></div>
<b>Choose a width:</b> Once you’ve found your sweet spot (or spots — you might have more than one) think about the width of the belt. Sometimes a wider elasticized belt worn a little above your midriff extra bits does the trick. Sometimes positioning it right onto the extra bits does the girdling trick. With a straight, undefined waistline, a narrower belt positioned a little lower in front can work really well. Long waisted gals can usually wear extra wide belts, whereas short-waisted gals tend to look better in narrower or skinny belts.
<b> </b><br />
<br />

<b>Add something else:</b> Layering a jacket or cardigan over a top with either a low or high contrast belt is an effective way of wearing a belt without worrying about its effects around the midriff. When worn this way, the belt adds an interesting textural dimension to your outfit.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.accessorize-usa.com/content/ebiz/accessorizeus/invt/98873950/98873950_T.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://www.accessorize-usa.com/content/ebiz/accessorizeus/invt/98873950/98873950_T.jpg" width="150" /></a><b>Choose Elasticity:</b> Where possible, choose belts that are part elastic because you can’t beat the comfort. They’ll stretch with your body during the day.
Wovens work wonders: So you’re happy with how you look in a belt and it’s all sorted. But your confidence falls to pieces when you sit down because those extra midriff bits start spilling both over and underneath the belt. Enter the magical effects of woven tops and dresses that don’t cling like knits, but glide over curves adding structure in the right places. Wovens can either be rigid like shirt fabric, or soft and drapy like silk and rayon blends. Both work equally well.
<b> </b><br />
<b>Give yourself time:</b> Belts can feel odd when you’re not used to wearing them. Sometimes it’s just a question of getting used to the extra pressure around your waistline, so allow some time to get used to the feeling of wearing a belt.Dont give up on them.

<i>Due to public demand, i have been forced to repeat this article though i had tackled it earlier.</i><br />
<br />
Think
it really matters how you dress? If you are a person of your own morals
and standards, then you should add swag to the way you dress.
Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but people judge you based
off of the clothes you wear. I don’t care if you’re walking down the
street, or sitting in a business meeting; people are constantly looking
at what you’re wearing. Even you, you too do the same-looking at people
in church, in a bus, in the streets and then judging them according to
the clothes,make up or shoes they have worn. Just like a lady's hair
style says much about her swag, too the clothes you put on every day say
more about you than anything else.
When I first started out as a student blogger, I didn’t have much money
though still i have no much money.. So whenever I went out to networking
events I either wore baggy jeans that looked like I had poop in my
pants or slacks and a shirt that typically didn’t match. So, my swag was
far away down and this embarrassed me occasionally.
As you can probably already guess, half the issue was that I had no
sense of style and the other half was that I didn’t want to spend too
much money or else i did not have enough money to spend on clothes.
Whenever I walked into classrooms or meetings or went to a conference
people wouldn’t really give me the time of the day until they got to
know me. Once they learned I was somewhat smart they were willing to
listen to me and potentially work with me. The issue was, it took people
a while to warm up to me because no one wanted to waste their time
talking with someone who looked like a chump. That is true in every
society even Kenya, meet a person who has dressed up like he/she is from
doing a 'mjengo' job and nobody will dare talk to you-For what purpose
and you look shaggy and cheap?
After a few years of going through this, a friend of mine kindly
suggested that I spend a bit more money on my wardrobe, pay more than
20bob for a haircut, and get a decent pair of shoes.
I invested ten thousand in making myself over. And boy, it made a huge
difference…

<br />
<b>My big break through</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS7JmpUSN-7Ehk2MQv1rV_nYRHwGoWuh-yr4o4yyPawgHHRTi286A" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS7JmpUSN-7Ehk2MQv1rV_nYRHwGoWuh-yr4o4yyPawgHHRTi286A" width="200" /></a></div>
With
my new clothes, a somewhat decent haircut, and nice pair of black shoes
I made a break through. At first I noticed that people were more
willing to talk to me when I went to conferences. I also noticed that
during my business meetings people took me more serious and people
started contacting me for different coding projects.
However, none of those things really mattered because they weren’t big
break throughs. What was a big break through was that people assumed
that I was somewhat well off because I was dressing much better. When I
start talking to potential customers they naturally assumed that I was
successful and my services were costly because I was better dressed.
So when it came down to locking in new deals these potential customers
started offering me more money. As I got a taste of money making, I
wanted more, so I decided to take things up a new level with my
wardrobe.

<b>The Boss Years</b> -Bosses like staying together.<br />
<i>"The story below now is from a friend i kept on watching"</i><br />
<br />
From
Gucci suits, to designer shoes, to 5 figure watches, my friend stepped
up his appearance as much as he could within his financial
constraints. And boy, not only was there a huge swag, but it was a much
bigger difference than one could imagine
By dressing to impress, successful business owners started to flock to
my friend when he attended networking events and people listened when
he spoke in business meetings. In addition to that he was praised for
wearing rare watches that other business owners wanted, but didn’t have.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ_A_19_vA__0Kj9bdkLacoB84CgX2-5XPVvOLQ15WJJeQl4QHh" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="134" src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ_A_19_vA__0Kj9bdkLacoB84CgX2-5XPVvOLQ15WJJeQl4QHh" width="200" /></a></div>
This
experience taught me that successful people like to hang around with
other successful people as they tend to feel comfortable around
themselves-Just like the pic on the left,all these men have swag,no man
in a baggy jeans or a t-shirt. Now, by no means am I saying that all
successful people dress nice, but the chances are if someone comes up to
you and they are wearing a 5 figure watch, they have money.</blockquote>
And
when you start talking about business with these successful people,
they know that if they do business with you, it’s going to be costly for
the following reasons:
<i>You have an expensive lifestyle</i> – if people realize you have
money, they know that they are going to have to pay a pretty penny to
work with you. They know that if you throw around small amounts of cash
in front of you, you just won’t care.
<i>It has to move your needle</i> – in business there is saying that
if it doesn’t move your needle, it’s not worth doing. So if the amount
someone is willing to offer you isn’t life changing, there is a much
greater chance that you won’t accept it. Due to this business owners
will throw out much larger amounts if they want to work with you.
By dressing like a “boss” my friend's credibility went through the roof
with other business owners and he was able to do things like close 7
figure business deals.

Stay
on top of your game easily-So dress to impress but dont waste all your
money on clothes, so maintain a budget.Men's suits are a variety, so
choose what suits you.<br />
