My sister has been bugging me about what to wear in their upcoming homecoming. The event will be held in a hotel ballroom and she’s starting to get panicky about it.

I am literally my sister’s keeper and we’re indeed closed. It’s maybe due to the fact that we’re just two, along with our mom, a widow on her early 50s. I’m on the peak of my career as the head of the advertising and promotion department in an apparel industry and that gives me all the information about fashion dos and don’ts. I must admit that my job demands much of my time, with all those deadlines to beat, presentations for the board of executives, business trips and even out of the country visits. I love my job and simply because I can have everything a single career woman has ever wanted.

Now, back to my sister who’s five years younger than me; she’s happy working as a nurse in a district hospital. Aside from the regular hospital beds and the emergency room, she’s not really confident when it comes to buying her own clothes. Perhaps, she got too much dependent on me, so the problem of homecoming dresses rests on my hands.

Last night, just after having dinner we went surfing for homecoming dresses. We came across 4prom.com and we’re mesmerized by their line of gowns and prom dresses. The web site is complete with all its designer’s creations, accessories and jewelry to make the outfit complete. We clicked on homecoming dresses 2009 category and my sister fell in love with gold above the knee gown. It is heart- shaped glittered sequins neckline, gathered empire sash, and multi layers of tulle wit curled bottom that just looks puffy. I never thought my sister has a sublime fashion taste, her choice simple impressed me. I think my job became easier because I would just recommend what shoes would fit for her gown and her blonde hair goes naturally with the color. We also didn’t have a hard time choosing for accessories because the gown itself is eloquent enough for the occasion. As for her bag, I have a collection of purses and I could just pick for her. We made a purchase right away and we will just wait for the parcel to be delivered in two to three days. I must say it’s a great deal and am really happy to know that my sister is worry free.

I can’t explain why I’m so much into footwear. I’ve got high heeled shoes, flats, sneakers, sandals, stilettos, boots, flip flops in my collection of footwear since I was in high school. I can’t help myself from buying shoes the moment my paycheck landed into my hands. Lately I have discovered that shopping online is more efficient that going to the malls. I love shoes.com and I even love its Shoes.com Coupon code. They offer a generous amount of discount that is simply irresistible. When I buy shoes there’s also a high probability that I would end up buying bags. Well, they always go together just like the milk to my coffee. The latest one that I got is Michael Kors Large leather north tote using Overstock.com Promo Code, with a considerable 20% discount. I don’t consider myself a fashionista but my outfit won’t be complete without accessories. I also used my Ice.com Promotion Code to buy a new wristwatch, which I consider a necessity. I make sure that all my things are prepared a night before I go to work, my clothes, shoes, bag and even my hanky. Those who know me, think I’m an obsessive compulsive but I often disagree. I think I just want everything in order and hassle free especially in the morning because it’s taking much of my time.

I have an upcoming visit to Russia due to a travel package that I got to the country to fly a Mikoyan Mig-29 aircraft, and I am so delighted that I was able to afford it together with my friends. We leave in three weeks and I guess I still have enough time to go shopping for some stuff that I might need to have when we get there. Coat is not a problem since I already have some of those and I am also planning to buy new ones in there. My plan is to get one of those thermal clothing that I have heard about because they really got my attention. It works by keeping your skin comfortable, even if you are in extreme weather, hot or cold. The material absorbs a minimum of body moisture, dries very quickly and regulates body moisture efficiently, thus keeping you warm. It’s the breathable quality in the material that helps keep heat in. I found a web site that sells this kind of product and I thought they are also noble because they support the heart research in UK. It was said that if I buy T-shirts from them, then the proceeds will go to the research to help mankind. I guess it would be nice to buy thermal shirts from them to help myself and their cause

When I was in college I couldn’t believe my marketing and advertising professor’s age. No one will think that she’s on her late fifty’s. Her secret, aside from those anti aging treatments and daily exercise, she is also a vegan. She eats everything, from leaves, sprouts and even roots of any edible plant, huge amount of tofu, tons of fruits, gallons of milk, a variety of seafood, everything but meat. Aside from being intellectual, she makes sure her diet and looks are always on top of her priorities. She goes to our class with a unique sense of fashion since faculty doesn’t have their own uniform. On a Monday, she’s like a CEO with her satin and black suit, an aspiring teen ager on Tuesday with heels up to four inches, a gypsy on a Wednesday complete with all the accessories and her own version of dangling earrings, a conservative member of the faculty on Thursday and her own definition of a dress down Friday. If only she didn’t come from a well off family I guess everyone would have been dismayed seeing her outfit the moment she get out of her red BMW I think it’s not just her style that I’m trying to emulate but her whole personality that I do really look up to.

I was lucky enough to find some nice looking white formal mens shirt in my internet surfing because I have been looking for some good stuff in a couple of weeks already because our company has required everyone to wear white shirts and blouse as a uniform. They are still letting free fashion flow, provided we wear white tops. It isn’t really a problem for me until I realized that my closet is full of black shirts and coats and I have to have a major closet makeover so I could get to work according to the rule that the company owners have required. As I have said, it is a good thing that I was able to find some in the internet and I should be getting my package any time soon. I never realized it but neckties can actually make someone look different everyday even if he wears the same shirt over and over. In my case, I can actually save some money by just buying a couple of shirts, then tons of neckties so I would appear wearing different attire every day. Maybe it would also be a good idea to buy some few more belts so as to add some spice to the attires.

I must admit that I am not the best when it comes to birthday presents. It’s not that I don’t care or anything, I just struggle to put myself in the other persons shoes and figure out what they would like!.

I find this especially hard when it is a member of the opposite sex I am buying a present for! (You guessed it, I am a guy!) Thankfully, this is one more area that the internet has come to my help with. I found a great website called giftboutique, that sells an amazing array of gifts and luxury items that most women would love to receive on their birthday. Honestly, looking through the sites stock, I felt that no matter what I chose, I couldn’t go wrong!

In the end I settled for some Erbaviva products, some organic Argan oil (an amazing product that I found out made from a nut that’s only found in Morocco, and helps to keep skin super healthy!)

Just wanted to give the heads up to any other guys out there looking to get gifts for the female members of their family, and to say to your girls out there, give the guys in your life a break an make buying nice presents easier for them, send them to http://www.giftboutique.ie!

They say that fashion should be for everyone and not just for the aesthetically gifted people. Fashion designers should know, or at least start knowing that people have different sizes, looks and even charismas, so they should see to it that their line of clothing can be capable of being worn by anyone that cares to buy them. I find it a little unethical that these fashion designers would only concentrate on what the slim people would wear, and not give a bit of attention to the larger community that consist of plus-sized people. They should understand that while advocating against obesity is a good thing, they should still create some designs that would fit that populace. Not people are from Russia, where women seemed to come straight from Aphrodite’s womb… we have different looks and different tastes… which reminds me, I was able to find some adventure travel packages to go to Russia to have a jet pilot lesson in one of their Mig 29. It should be a good opportunity to get a good feel of life, as well as of course, the fashion in the country. After summer, we should start having cold weather already, so it would be best to check the fashion trends in there to be worn by winter.

My roommate seems preoccupied nowadays .Who wouldn’t be, she’s planning for her dream wedding next year. Even I, myself is excited about it. Though we have work in the afternoon we still have time to talk about her dream wedding in the morning, in our lunch and of course the girl’s talk at night. We have done a major step, which is church reservation. It has to be a year in advance due to some reason that couples want to have their weddings solemnized in that church, I’m hands down to it. The church is really magnificent. From the church, we were referred to some of their trusted wedding planners so off we went. Wow, I never imagined how complicated things are, every single details counts. We have to go for a lot of packages given; lucky to her budget she has a good source of fund for the said even. She was given a list to select what kind of services she would like to have during her wedding. In the list there’s about Portland photobooth services and without a question she said yes to it. She was really excited about these Portland photo booth rentals because she likes taking pictures herself. Finally she agreed to rent a photobooth to make the occasion more memorable.

The internet is the perfect place to buy your ink cartridges. You get the cheapest prices and you get them delivered to your door, free of charge in most cases. The best thing however is that you don’t have to search though a sea of different cartridges trying to find the cartridges that your printer takes. While most websites are designed to make finding your cartridges as easy as possible the best and quickest way to go about it is to use the search engine. If you search for terms such as “printer ink” you will shown results of the homepage of sites that sell printer ink. Being more specific with your search terms will display results of product pages that are relevant to you. If you search for “cheap ink for Epson SX405” for example will display results of websites that sell ink cartridges for that printer, not only that but the results will be the actual page where those products are on the site. This speeds up the process of finding your cartridges and also only displays good quality websites that are designed to show all the products that are suitable for printers rather than you having to know which cartridges your printer uses and run the risk of buying the wrong ones. Search engines are also a good way of judging how trust worthy a website is. The reason for this is that getting in the top 5 results of a search terms such as “Epson ink” is very difficult because of the amount of competition, therefore if a site is in the top five of the generic results for a term such as this then more than likely it’s a trustworthy site.
