The time we spend in our daily lives making an effort to look good is immense if you put it all together. Taking the time to do it, one might say, is part of the fun – if you just turn it into a game of getting it done quickly and painlessly you spoil it. But there are things that, while helping you save time, also end up being the best solution overall.

Remember the times that people ironed their hair to straighten it? People now look back and realize how bad that was for your hair: it burned it and generally dried it out so much it practically killed it. The smell alone was hard to cope with. It’s unanimous that this is a bad and time-consuming way to straighten your hair. But did you know that most hair straighteners in the market are just a glorified iron and ironing board, made to fit your hand? And it takes you twice as long as it would with a professional hair straightening tool. This is where ghd straighteners come into play. You can have a professional tool that won’t damage your hair if used correctly and that is small and easy to use, making you save time and money.

Kids Jewellery

Filed Under (Style Accessories) by admin on 10-05-2010

I have four daughters that go through jewellery like nothing I have ever seen before. My eldest daughter’s favourite trick is to lose jewellery. My next daughter is the stroppy teenage drama queen, one minute it’s sparkly necklaces, the next minute it is jewellery that sticks in her hair. I could honestly recycle her cast away bangles and necklaces into a small eastern European car.

Then there is the seven year old, she is an entirely different kettle of fish altogether. On one hand, she has the access to both her sisters’ lost and found pieces of jewellery, plus her own staggering collection. Of her own collection, most are broken or at least missing bits, hence the reason she raids her sisters’ collections as she is mostly an action chick.

Her particular chosen action chick niche is horse riding, and jewellery and horse riding doesn’t mix very well, as you can imagine.
So what is the secret to my success, the answer is very very easy indeed. My eldest two have a couple of individual items of daddy jewellery, little special tokens that hopefully they will keep forever.

The eldest has a little silver star, with an embedded diamond, which suits her “cookie” hippie chick look. The teenagers, she has some un-assuming diamond teardrop studs that hopefully (I’m praying) never go out of fashion, or at least until about the time she gets married.

The horse rider has a set of silver earrings in the shape of little tiny horses and although she thinks she has been made the same as the elder two, I won’t be too bothered if they go missing.

But, for the rest of it, they simply buy it themselves and as the elder two are both on meagre budgets they buy cheap rubbish from a well known chain of accessory stores. The younger buys her kids jewellery on the meagre funds made available from the bank of dad.

I’m thanking my lucky stars that the youngest one isn’t quite there yet, bankruptcy and a new car could be close.

When it comes to kids jewellery my recommendation would be to have a couple of nice special occasion pieces, but everything else is simply items within your own personal budget that you would really mind being discarded.

There’s plenty of it out there, and most can look quite good if they are chosen with a little care. Or at least my daughters keep telling me that it’s in the fashion, but hey what do I know…….

 

Celebrity Eyebrow Piercings

FergieEyebrow piercings can look great on both men and women. Several celebrities – mostly in the music business sport eyebrow piercings, read on to find out who.
The most famous woman with an eyebrow piercing is Fergie from the Back Eyed Peas. The piercing really adds to her look and personal style. She usually chooses to wear simple body jewellery in her eyebrow – most of the time she can be seen wearing a plain small silver bar. Melanie B from the Spice Girls also has an eyebrow piercing (as well as tongue and ear piercings). Another famous singer, who has sadly passed away, is Lisa Left Eye Lopez, she famously had a pretty eyebrow piercing and set the trend for many years to come.

There are three different styles of eyebrow piercing, horizontal, vertical and anti-eyebrow. It is possible to get any place along your eyebrow pierced as long as there is enough skin to get the piercing through. As for choosing your type of jewellery you can have a plain or decorated metal bar or a small ring depending on your taste. Healing times can vary from person to person but usually takes from 3 to 6 weeks.

Making Accessories Work

shopping4In the world of women’s clothing, there are many aspects and details to consider. An outfit is not just composed of a top, pants and shoes. It can be a series of layers, accessories, and statements. Everything is a detail that can express your style: color, pattern, texture, fabric, and material just to name a few. So how do you make accessories work with your outfit? Here are a few quick tips to follow when composing your next outfit.

Metallic items, such as gold or silver jewelry, gems, sequins, glitter, shimmer etc. should be kept to a minimum. This time of statement should be reserved for just one singular object, to become the focal point of your outfit. This keeps you from overdoing it. Just because sequins and glitter are both metallic and shiny, doesn’t mean they match, and doesn’t mean you should wear them together. This will prevent you from coming off as a disco ball.

Loud patterns should also be kept to a singular item maximum. If your top has a bright print, keep the bottoms to a neutral: black, white or grey. Red may be found in the pattern, and therefore seem as if it will match, but you might end up looking like a circus tent.
