Sure Hit for Dangly Earrings

Sure Hit for Dangly EarringsPerhaps, out of all the trends that we see promoted on the catwalk, only a handful actually apply in real life too, as in, work for regular women as well. Of the lot, dangly earrings are the safest choice for a dash of glamor and timeless elegance, stylists tell us. Statement jewelry of this type not only knows no age limit, but is also guaranteed to look spectacular no matter what.

Whereas, red lipstick comes with certain limitations to look good, as also do other trends that are all the rage this season (leggings, teetering pumps, or bandage dresses), oversized earrings do not depend on wrinkles, children or body shape. The only thing that matters to look positively fabulous with a pair of sparkling chandelier earrings is “a good measure of confident maturity” and the simplest of hairdos.

There is only one condition that has to be met with oversized earrings, though: saggy lobes are a no-no. The only negative when it comes to New Big Earrings, are Saggy Old Earlobes. Gravity, and years of Big Earring Abuse, has a grotesque effect on pierced ears. Whatever age you are, do yourself a favor: choose clip-ons. These being said always that nothing should stop us from looking as glamorous as we want: 20-something or over 30, chandelier earrings are always a sure hit.

Minimizing fuel consumption

Minimizing fuel consumptionTravel light – remove all unnecessary stuff from your car. The more weight your car carries, the more fuel it requires to accelerate.

Go high – Driving on lower gears eats up more fuel than if you drive on higher gears. As soon as you reach a speed that allows a shift to higher gears, do so.

Don’t idle – when waiting for someone turn off the engine and open your windows (just make sure you are in a safe place). Avoid traffic jams. Map out a route with less vehicular volume or take to the road at times when there is less traffic.

Don’t go too fast – limit your speed to 80kph, which is more fuel-efficient than driving at 100kph and above. Driving at high speeds consumes more fuel.

Check your tires – make sure your tires have the correct air pressure. Too much or too little will slow down your car and increase fuel use.

Tips to Find Unique Handbag

Tips to Find Unique HandbagLooking fabulous is a great way to express yourself. There are many times you can tell what a person is like by the way they dress or the accessories they use. One way to be different from everyone else is to have a unique handbag. A handbag can say “hey look at me”; it can express a level of class and sophistication nothing else can. But first you have to find the bag that tells your story. So here’s a little tips:

  • Look in your local stores – often these stores are shopped by everyone else in your area, so finding something truly unique may be difficult. Especially if it is a large chain store there are probably many of the same styles to be found there. Sometimes you might get lucky and find an odd discontinued bag that everyone else doesn’t already have.
  • Second hand stores – some people don’t like the idea of buying someone else old stuff but this is exactly the kind of place that will have a large assortment of different items. And if you are looking for something that is actually vintage and just not a knock off, a second hand store can be perfect. [Read more...]
