One day I was looking through the pictures in the photo album of my Granma, and was highly intrigued by the look of women's bodies in that time. Women on the beaches of Florida and the Bahamas, often fashionably full-figured, DID NOT SHOW ANY SIGNS OF CELLULITE!

I vaguely remember one "Sex and the City" episode when Carrie saw this woman who was wearing a scrungee and acted like it was a major fashion crime. I wondered then whether it is advisable for women to lay off the hair accessories when going out - or is it just women of a certain age who will be charged with a fashion crime when seen wearing hair accessories in public?
I looked it up online and found out that there ...

by , 1 Response
I have long learned the lesson that in order to survive in a world of glamour, a French manicure is a must. The problem is that it takes time and money to maintain those exquisitely elegant white tips on your nails. But what if there is a way for you to do it yourself? There is such a product which allows you to do just that and it is available from Neiman Marcus. It’s called the Yves Saint Laurent Beaute ...
Anyone who’s a sucker for romantic comedies would remember that scene where Robert Robert Redford walked “Barefoot in the Park” - in the 1967 movie of the same title, of course. Without looking at it from a romantic context, however, are there health benefits associated with walking barefoot? There is - if you will do it on the beach, on dew, on clean grass and on small pebbles. The perfect time for walking barefoot is at dawn if you plan ...
I am as guilty of daydreaming as the next person, especially when I was in high school. I remember my teacher trying to get back my attention, because it has always been thought that daydreaming is a waste of time. But looking at it from the perspective of health experts, daydreaming actually occurs during the times when nothing engaging forces you to think ‘actively’ - because daydreaming is the brain’s normal state.
Instead of it being a non-productive ...

No matter how well-balanced you think your life is, there will always come a point when things will not work out the way you planned and stress will take its toll. For this, you need to relax, take things a bit slower and do some relaxation techniques.

• Yoga
• Meditation

I had a great laugh when I read an article online about this lady who had too many plastic surgeries that she had a ‘permanently surprised’ look on her face when she turned 62. I would not want to have that look when I reach my 50’s or 60’s - that is why I slather my face and neck with moisturizer and use a lot of anti-ageing products.
However, there is an alternative way for you to look young and ...
It was February of this year that the glowing second-time mom Angelina Jolie showed off her baby bump at the Film Independent's Spirit Awards with Brad Pitt in tow. Since then, rumors have been flying as to whether the couple is expecting twins or not. The news was 'accidentally' confirmed when the very pregnant Angelina went on a side-by-side Today interview with her "Kung Fu Panda" co-star Jack Black. The two stars were in Cannes to promote the animated film. ...

The trick is to keep things light, be yourself, think fun and talk about the basics. After you have covered some basic grounds like what ...
I always thought that the sexiest shoes were Louboutin's and Jimmy Choos. But is it so?
I've just been to Neiman Marcus (home of Miu Miu, Gucci, Louboutin's and many other big name shoes) and guess what?
The only sexy pair (not the I am over 40 kind) was the Christian Louboutin Pigalle Patent Pumps like these (only in hot florescent red):
And these Christian Louboutin Satin Peep Toes:
But other than ...
The situation can go either way when you risk your friend finding out that you are in love with him or with her: you can end up as a couple with a happy ending, or you can end up making things awkward for the both of you and ruin a perfectly good, platonic relationship.
So how will you know if your 'love' is worth risking your friendship? At the end of the day, it all depends on how strongly you ...
As much as I would like to forget the fru-fru disaster of a dress that I wore on my prom night years ago - I have the pictures to prove it. Fortunately for the high school students of today, they do not need to be a wallflower because there are a lot of fabulous, stylish and standout dresses to choose from.
So what’s hot for 2008? A full, flowing gown is still okay but it is perfectly fine and fashionable ...
