QUICK TIP: HOW TO ROCK A GRAPHIC SHIRT?






The key to dressing up a graphic tee is to take just one other aspect of your ensemble and have it be over-the-top so that the individual elements of your outfit shine in stark contrast to each other.


Sophia Bush got it right recently by pairing her tee with a sharp blazer. When you base your outfit on a pair of dark skinny jeans or black trousers and a fabulous pair of heels, then a bold jacket becomes the perfect luxe piece to top a graphic tee and make it event-worth.



Whichever style of jacket you choose, it should stand in stark, statementy contrast to the downtown cool of your graphic tee

to do to make your daily routine 'active'




1. Whether at work or home, take the stairs. No elevators.



2. Walk for 30 minutes in all, right after breakfast, lunch and dinner.



3.Put on a 10minute workout DVD.


4. Suck your stomach in for at least five minutes a day.



5. Park your car in the farthest spot when you are running errands, and if can't find parking space… don't get mad… it's more exercise.



6. Walk your dog, or rather let the dog walk you…



7. Put on some fast music that you love, and dance as if you are on 'Dancing with the stars'… or on steroids!



8. If you have kids, play with them for at least thirty minutes a day. Or find some kids, and you'll automatically be forced to be 'active' like they are.



9. Do some gardening and this activity surprisingly will burn a lot of calories.



10. Don't sit around doing nothing but if you are at home, keep yourself busy doing housework. If you have a desk job, try and move around as much as possible. Just don't sit there for long hours.



MAKE SURE YOU START AND IT WILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENT!

SEXY MODERN DAY CLOGS IM IN LOVE

MODERN DAY CLOG:








Add some more feminine touches, specifically, a higher heel, some cutouts, perhaps a more contemporary color or finish et voilĂ ! You have what stylistas are calling the "modern clog." Some modern clogs look almost like the originals they're still mules, but with a higher heel.



The terrific thing about this trend is that you don't have to have a summer home in the Maldives to be able to afford it. You can go to Target home of the $30 shoe and get a modern clog in pump form, which, yes, makes it more than perfect for the office.







The great thing about the "new clog" is that it's much more versatile than its blockier ancestor. Unlike traditional clogs, which really don't belong paired with anything other than pants or maybe a long skirt, the higher heel and more feminine feel of a modern clog gives the wearer more options. Pair the newer clogs with an full skirt or dress; or slacks or jeans, preferably the skinny kind.



TIP: The one look you may want to avoid? Anything too sleek or tailored; the modern clog may still not be quite structured enough for that.

BAKERS SHOES: $79.00


YOUR CLOG WITH AN MODERN DAY TWIST ..FASHION IS ALWAYS ABOUT ADDED YOUR OWN PERSONALITY TOO SOMETHING ...AND WITH WEARING THIS SHOE YOU WOULD HAVE A MORE MODERN DAY LOOK .....INSTEAD OF THE ORIGINAL CLOG ...Be BOLD & DIFFERENT SO WHAT IF THEY JUDGE..... || smoochies||

Creative slimming tips using clothing:

How To Look Slimmer in WHITE? :

-Wide set straps help sculpt abd hour glass figure, an empire waist accents a pretty bust while hiding belly bulge, and soft center pleats create a vertical line that elongates the upper body!

-A collar that hits one inch below the jaw (at the neck's slimmest part) shifts focus off double chin, sleeves that puff only at the forearms slim upper arms, and a scoop tail hides purge.

-cropped sleeves broaden shoulders so the waist looks whittled, darts help lengthen the torso, and a shirt that hits just below the waist makes legs look long and lean!


T-Shirts That Slim Instantly:

-ERASE A DOUBLE CHIN:

Most stylist advise ditching crewnecks and boatnecks in favor of V-necks to lengthen the neckline and make the chin look slimmer... The soft point acts like an arrow too elongate and slim the neckline, while the vast opening at the top draws attention to areas of the body that naturally store less fat, like the collarbone and breastbone....

Animal print may seem like a wild pattern, but leopard actually serves as a great neutral and can be worn in a variety of ways.
