According to news source, different kinds of burglaries happen every day. Everyone worries about home security and the safety of their own family. When I was still young, my mom always checked that our doors were always locked and we’re all safe before we hit the sack. Having the maternal instinct, it was her who convinced my dad to secure adt alarm system. My dad who used to go home late because of work overtime but he was never worried knowing that his family were also safe and sound. It was my mom who taught me everything, from dressing properly, home organizing, cooking and most importantly, how to raise a family.

I always remember her compassion whenever someone in the family gets ill. Until now she never forgets to care for us; from the right food to proper medicine, warm and comfortable clothes to a cozy home. In this way, I learned that being a woman is not just the physical thing like jewelry and new clothes, shoes or shopping. It has to do more with being responsible, keeping your stuff and home organized and safe. To her adt home systems is a necessity. It’s more than just home security; it also made us worry free.

Have you thought of wearing black in your wedding? This may sound surprising but black wedding gowns are also a possibility. Some folks say white is the color of purity and so it has been used for centuries, a symbol of matrimony. But since fashion has evolved, people started to adopt change. Different colors have been used; white to dirty white, light yellow to gold, velvet red to any shades of red and lastly, any variation of black. Unlike prom dresses wherein bright, metallic, shimmering and dark colors are in, it’s still quite unusual to witness a wedding ceremony with the main star of the event wearing a dark shade of gown like that of white isn’t it? Maybe, maybe not. Like what I said, it’s just a mere tradition, to most folk it’s a superstition; but in the name of fashion it’s possible.

Culture is also one of the factors why some people don’t want to believe that white should just be the standard. Most Indians don’t think that pink are just for girls, as long as they like the color then it doesn’t matter even if their sons are wearing pink outfit or their baby boys riding a pink baby stroller. In Germany, the homeland of the supermodel Heidi Klum, a wedding is a possibility of any color that a bride wants. A friend of mine who got married to a German national had her dream wedding several years ago. It was a spectacular garden wedding; the bride was wearing a shimmering velvet red wedding gown as well as some of the entourage. Then a couple of years ago, my other friend who also tied the knot in Deutschland, wore a pitch black gown on her civil wedding. But then the last wedding that I attended had a dress code, wearing any dress that you want except for black. So there you go, it depends on the host. I’m not saying that since black is also in you should wear one and end up having trouble with your family and in laws. Wedding is not a simple thing. It’s not just a simple contract wherein you sign the agreement on a piece of paper. Yeah, it’s still a contract but it’s more than just a meeting of minds, it’s the meeting of hearts. The bottom line is, unlike prom dresses, wedding gowns have to comply with the social norms.

Nothing beats old school especially when it comes to cars and jewelry. The beauty and worth of vintage jewelry is beyond incomparable aside from the fact that classic beauty is really fashionable. It’s maybe one of the reasons why some folks invest on jewelry and pass them down from generation to generation as a family treasure or heirloom. The tradition of giving jewelry as present is one of the oldest and common standard in the society. It’s very much the same as like giving diamond vintage rings as part of wedding proposal. Nothing can make a woman’s eyes sparkle; heartbeats faster and heighten her spirit than diamond, precious stones or any other piece of jewelry that’s why guys who want to impress their fiancé save a large sum of money to get the best and the most precious jewel for her. In fact, one of my students told me that he saved for more than seven years just to give her bride a memorable wedding and the engagement ring itself cost him his three month salary. I think giving someone the best present is an utmost manifestation of love. Besides, it’s the symbol of your never ending love and commitment to the person that you swear to stay and grow old with. They have been married for 18 years now, blessed with two children, still happy and satisfied. I’m not yet married but in case I tie the knot, I also would want to get the best among the vintage rings that I see in the jewelry store. Of course, I’ll make sure the relationship will last as well.

Sexy mini skirts are becoming more and more popular amongst teenagers and adult ladies nowadays as we get a little bit more liberated and confident about our sexuality. This type of clothing simply gives a whole new meaning to the cliché “if you got it, flaunt it” due to the fact that you can easily show your assets just by wearing one of those skimpy little skirts. Men should blow their minds out once they see our ladies strutting their stuff on the streets and you know that sooner or later, one of them would definitely go towards you and ask for your name and number. For the ladies that already have their own men, it should also be nice to every once in a while, wear some sexy lingerie to keep things interesting inside the house, especially at night. There are just tons of designs to choose from that you can simply take advantage of to get the full attention of your man and making sure that he will just look at you and you alone. Combine the two and you know that you’ll get you and your man crazy for the fact that there are just a lot of stylish garments that you can choose from with mini skirts and lingerie.

And of course, you know that your man would not be able to get enough of you once he sees you in the sexiest appearance that you can ever be with this combination. Truly a perfect style to flirt with your man…

Fashion within football has of course, always been underestimated due to the notion that football is a man’s sport and every single person involved, whether it’s the players, coaches, audience, and even the betting people in NFL lines, would always show their machismo. One person in particular though, Washington Redskin’s running back Clinton Portis, has done something about NFL fashion. It is a bit of surprise but the respect and enthusiasm that this player has is just remarkable. Clinton Portis on fashion news was reported to have just recently had a fashion show to raise awareness and have a movement against domestic violence. The event was held at the Liaisons Hotel rooftop pool, and it was reported that tons of people have gathered to witness this fashion event. He was also joined by fellow NFL players and teammates Jason Campbell and Stephen Hayer, where they made sure that they would be able to lead the fight against domestic violence by strutting their stuff up all across the runway. They were also joined by D.C. United players Bryan Namoff, Devon McTavish and Santino Quaranta. Indeed, these players have not only the heart for fashion, but also have the right motivation to fight against social problems.

Prom is one of the most awaited events in high school year because it means more freedom to them to step up into college life. Of course, it also means party with the drinks and food plus all the joy of friendship and fun. Most girls really take heart in this once in a lifetime event of their life investing more in their prom dress and looks. According to recent survey, most girls sought for prom dresses that are short and sexy. I think that they young are quite liberating nowadays, not just because time has changed, there’s also a big influence of media. They play a big role in the lives of the young especially in the aspect of fashion and manners. Take for example the hit teen drama Gossip Girl; people like to watch the glamorous characters in the upper east side of Manhattan’s elite. I’m no longer a teen but I’ve seen episodes one to three. Why not, we love to see beautiful people and deep within ourselves we long to be rich or look beautiful. I’m sick of watching news anymore, either they are serious or too depressing. In times like this, we need to lessen our worries and focus more on the life’s positives. But that doesn’t mean we have to splurge in luxurious things especially in clothing. Don’t try to dress up like Serena Van der Woodsen for it would really cost you an arm and a leg. If you’re looking for nice prom dresses try to shop online and offline. Try to gather as much choices and compare their style and affordability. Go for prom dresses that are below $100 and not exceedingly sexy or daring. This way you would be comfortable all night long and you won’t be in trouble with your parents. If you want to have more fashionable and trendy ones, try searching online. If you’re having difficulty with choosing the style, search the net for what’s in and what’s hot. I think colorful short dresses like pink, red and green with puffy sleeves or features are hot nowadays. Same thing goes for selecting your jewelry. Go for something vivid and match the colors with your gown. Birthstones like ruby, amethyst and sapphire are just brilliant. Don’t deal much on luxury jewelry since you are not attending a red carpet awards night. You can still have the celebrity look by following their style; it’s up to your abilities not to overspend.

Eternity rings are always best to give as gift for just about any special occasions, especially if that special occasion is with a partner or a loved one. If budget is not a problem for you, getting a diamond Eternity ring should be the most perfect gift that you can ever give due to the fact that diamonds are meant to last a lifetime and frosting your loved one with this kind of jewelry should make her feel very wanted and would want to spend more of her life with you by her side. The best part about Eternity bands right now is their new feature where you can actually customize your ring to your choosing. You can now create the perfect ring for your loved one because they will allow you to choose a diamond shape and carat weight before they place it on the ring made of platinum. It is indeed the perfect way to express love as people all over the world use it when proposing for marriage. Aside from the fact that rings symbolizes eternity, diamonds are of course known to last forever, which made the two a perfect combination to represent passion towards two individuals.

Last night my girlfriend and me went over to a friend’s house for a little dressing up party and some late night boogie.

We didn’t really put much effort into our outfits and when we got there we were blown away by the costumes everyone else had on!
There were a load of people in 70’s fancy dress that just looked so cool that I felt like just leaving quietly by the backdoor. Our host though was great, she was dressed in Minnie Mouse fancy dress, and she took us upstairs to enhance our outfits from her dressing up box. I changed most of my sad looking outfit and borrowed a trilby, black suit, and white tie for the gangster fancy dress look. She even had a set of spats for my shoes. As I said Karen is a great friend and without that quick costume change I couldn’t have relaxed enough around all those other great outfits. My girlfriend, Lisa, shooed me out of the room for her transformation.

Back down stairs the music was loud and full of bass, excellent grooving music. Saw some old friends that I didn’t even recognise in their full Devil fancy dress costumes, including the red face paint and horns. What can I say it was an awesome party, great people and the DJ was old school playing vinyl!

Then Lisa came into the room in her new outfit, I think Karen must have had a whole outfit lying around upstairs. She was totally transformed by her Abba fancy dress outfit, the short skirt and platform boots, wig, makeup and almost see through top … stunning – I know I am biased but from the looks of everyone else I wasn’t the only one to think so.

From that moment on we were just part of a wicked party and a great time was had by all, yeh sure someone threw up over the amp and the police really didn’t need to be that harsh about the volume, but it was still one of the best parties I have been to for ages.
Here’s to good times friends and loud music!

People love celebrities, they love chasing them like paparazzi going gaga just to have a picture for an instant scoop. These stars whose earnings cost a fortune have given up their privacy for the opportunity of stardom and money. Sometimes it’s hard to imagine there could be heartless people taking advantage of them, without even knowing that they are still human beings capable of hurt; they think that their lives have become public figure once they decided to pursue this kind of career. On the other hand, there are some celebrities who just go along with the flow; they try to be nice with some camera guys or paparazzi rather than bear the consequence of being published in instant celebrity gossips about their weird act or even some kind of misdemeanor. I love celebrities too, I follow Hollywood news and aside from online buzz I watch TMZ every now and then. In the office I’m the one who’s always updated with celebrity news and what has transpired in Jay Leno or who guessed in Conan O Brien. As a typical citizen, I’m a sucker of America dramas as well. To top my lists is House, for some reason I just find it really entertaining. Anyway still talking about celebrities, I guess the best thing that we can get from them is no other than fashion. People don’t just emulate them; others are even trying hard to look like them. The last big event aside from Kanye West’s disastrous act in VMA was of course the 2009 Emmy Awards. This red carpet premier is one of the biggest awards night on earth, viewed by people almost all over the world. Celebrities arrive in limos, in dresses and gowns and stunning jewelry by the known and fabulous designers. Some of the best dressed celebrities were Drew Barrymore, January Jones, and Jennifer Morrison in a red hot simple Calvin Klein strapless red hot dress. I also liked Olivia Wilde’s bold one-sleeved, cut-out Marchesa gown, with shimmery metallic silvers, she really is hot. Well there were also some celebrities who made their ways to fashion blunders but still it’s not good for us to make fun of their attire. A lot of fashion enthusiasts also watch this event to create more ideas like best prom dresses and stuff. In my case, I think to those who flunked their fashion meter they’d better play safe next time. They can also wear short prom dresses just like Kristin Chenoweth did.

Time flies so fast, it’s already October. A few days from now, we would be experiencing the hassle of rush holiday shopping. I also read something yesterday that thousand new books were launched yesterday for the coming season. This made me realized that I should start buying gifts before everything gets too late. It should be something practical, unique and fashionable in some ways. There is a lot of stuff to choose from, clothes will do but then it’s quite complicated because we don’t know what kind of clothes would fit the taste of the person we’re giving it. I think the best gifts are jewelry… practical and fashionable. To narrow it down a little, pick watches. They are not that expensive, in fact there are a lot of online shops carrying big discounts. They have everything that you need for a gift. Citizen gold watch for your mom, citizen ladies watch for your sister, friend or officemate and citizen mens watch for your brother, dad or even to your hubby or if you don’t like citizen you can choose from a lot of products. I just like them because of the quality and price. Women love jewelry and people need watches. Remember, in this time of recession we need to save more pennies, so better do your Christmas shopping now before its too late.
