Tie

I was looking at my husband with amusement last night while he arranged the cloths sent to them by their Head Office for their uniforms. The designs were attached to them with the corresponding accessories needed for the completion of the uniforms. He is pretty excited to have a new uniform and can't wait to deliver them to the dress shop so he could already wear them. I noticed that their Wednesday uniform requires a tie, to which my husband is not fond of.

I have always wanted him to wear a tie. I don't know but it is just that I tend to associate ties with smart individuals. I remembered one time a colleague recounted to me that an office mate of ours goes for men in ties because she finds them serious, brilliant and neat. Oh well, I don't blame her really.

I hope my husband would wear one this time around. Maybe I could give him a kelvin tie for instance to let him know how anxious I am to see him with a tie.

Are you with me on this thinking?

Dance Apparels

Do you love dancing? Well, I do!

After deciding for the nth time to trim down my weight, I finally went back to dance exercise. It is so much fun to do this kind of sweating out because aside from the great music blazing from the sound speakers, I get amused to see myself dancing in front of the mirror wall, which is all over the studio.

It is best to do the exercise you love most. Some people maintained their great bodies through engaging on sports that they love. I have been dancing since my pre-school days and until now, three decades after, I still am. I guess this fascination can no longer be taken away from me.

I really loved watching dancers do their routines with wonderful dance attires. And I would love to have one too, so I could use it on dance exercise sessions.

Here are a few ideas I got . . .

Talk about comfort and style!

Christmas Gift Ideas

Christmas is three months away. Yeah, three months is still a long way to go but because of our busy schedules, we never know how time flies so fast. In just a flash, we may be surprised that loved-ones are already knocking on our doors for their Christmas presents.

Last night, my sis in law asked me if we have already decorated our home with Christmas decors. Well, we haven't yet because it is still far and that the kids might just ruin the decorations in the process, knowing how hyperactive they are. Her question just made me realize that I better prepare for the coming holidays now, before it's already too late. And so, if given a break, I would make my lists of things relative to Christmas to put attention into, and that includes Christmas presents.

Anyway, I will just note down here what I have to get as presents for the most important event of the year that will eventually happen three months from now. Just in case my memory fails me, at least I have already jotted them down:

For the kids: TOYS

My three kids love toys so much, to which I am quite reluctant to give since they tend to be destructive sometimes. Anyway, I will still give them their favorite toys this Holidays, because it is such a delight to see their faces lit up every time they open their Christmas presents. The smile on their faces are all worth it.

For my parents: GIFT CHEQUES

I always find it hard to look for the perfect presents for my parents. It seems that they already have everything. But anyway, I am sure they will be very grateful for the act alone of giving them the presents. Since I have no idea what exactly what they want, the gift cheques would answer that.

For friends: CUSTOM CARDS

Since friends are quite handful (thank God for them), I know they will simply understand if I give them photo christmas cards. It's the thought that counts anyway; the GIFT is in the giving. If ever I receive one also, I would be likewise glad. This could also be the perfect gift for online friends too.

For husband: PERFUME

Husband has always expressed how much he wanted to have a new perfume since his perfume right now almost run out. With lots of perfumes circulating in the market today, I have a hard time finding the perfect scent for him. I am considering these perfumes above but I still could not figure out yet which one to get. Could you help me out?

MTV Video Music Awards

The fashion high was so evident on the recently concluded Video Music Awards brought to us by MTV. Millions of fans have been anticipating for this event because, aside from their curiosity as to who will bag the awards, there would definitely be a wide display of fashion and style from the invited music artists.

Of course, our efforts of watching the event were not futile since a lot of stars have emerged with style and grace. But before we take a glimpse again on what they wore during the awards night, let me first congratulate the winners, as enumerated below:

Video of the Year: Bad Romance (Lady Gaga)
Female Video: Bad Romance (Lady Gaga)
Male Video: Not Afraid (Eminem)
Hip-Hop Video: Not Afraid (Eminem)
Rock Video: Kings and Queens (30 Sec To Mars)
Pop Video: Bad Romance (Lady Gaga)
Dance Music Video: Bad Romance (Lady Gaga)
Collaboration: Telephone (Lady Gaga and Beyonce)
Breakthrough Video: Tighten Up (The Black Keys)
New Artist: Justin Bieber (Baby)

Lady Gaga has reaped most of the awards, including the most prestigious Best Music Video of the Year. We all know that she is quite daring as far as fashion is concerned but many were surprised when she came to the awards night covered with a Alexander McQueen gown. But nonetheless, she still looked great. This victorious petite lady is already a certified fashion icon in her own right and here's why . . .


With the black Armani dress . . .


And the meat dress . . .


Other artists that came with attention-worthy clothes are the following:

Katy Perry

Kesha

Ciara

Jane Lynch

It is indeed entertaining to watch out for events like this.

What's Your Dating Attire?

Of course, each person is unique, therefore we could not generally say how a person dresses up during dates or special occasions. And since we all are not born alike, we have different tastes when it comes to wearing our clothes.

What we wear reflects our own personalities. Usually, we choose clothes depending on our moods and how we feel at the moment. But then, we also pick them depending on external factors like weather and society.

Anyway, just how do you dress for a date? It's not like we are on a singles asian dating, but what do you usually wear when you are out with somebody special, or even with a group of friends? Sometimes, it is just incredible that despite how endless the fashion ideas are revolving around us, there are times when we still stop and think hard on what to wear on a date.


Whether we want to go casual or formal, ideas are limitless as far as fashion is concerned. As long as we know how to get together the right kind of tops or pants, we are off to go then. Some people are just gifted with the flair, but the internet is here to guide us what is in and hot at the right moment.

Fashionably Military

Who says military outfits are not chic? Raise your hands! Well, if you think so, then let me tell you that it is otherwise.

We often associate military clothes with violence, war, cruelty and dirt, but we were proven wrong as this season's fashion trend goes militant. It was indeed amazing to mix and match clothes and get that military look with style. Here are a few instances that would make us think twice about giving a thumbs down on military fashion.

And celebrities . . .

I really liked the concept of these looks ~ ~ it gives enough impression that the wearer is out to combat fashion woes. Likewise, wearing these military inspired clothing is like putting on your complete fighting gear ready to conquer the world of vogue.

It is not hard to find these kinds of outfits as they are readily available everywhere. It is just a matter of matching the right kind of top for the right skirt or pants, or the right coat for a dress. Here are some suggestions you could put into use:

Jackets from Guess, Bebe and DKNY

Tops from Ralph Lauren, NY Collection and 3 Dots



Skirts from Jack BB Dakota, Lucky Brand and Mango



Pants from Dockers, Kenneth Cole and Calvin Klein

So, have you made your match?

Welcoming the 'BER' Months

The cold weather is slowly rubbing our elbows, well, for me at least. September is now in full swing and what more do we expect for BER months? It means we are nearing Halloween and Christmas!

The two events are without a doubt very much looked forward to, and as early as now, it would be best that we brace ourselves and prepare for the activities these two events bring.

Well, Christmas is three months away, but Halloween is already next month! A month-long preparation may be lengthy for some, but fleeting for others. A lot of Halloween fashion ideas are around the web to choose from, cartoon characters costumes, celebrity costumes or maybe even Star Wars Costumes! Whatever it is, they are surely available either in actual stores or online shops.

Halloween parties are a lot more exciting by having our loved ones around too, and I really find these couple costumes cute. I wonder if my husband would put on those garments. But nonetheless, I am delighted to share these cuties here:

Adam and Eve; Plug and Socket; Big Babies

You see, wearing Halloween costumes don't necessarily mean putting on scary and wicked clothings. Set your imagination in motion and you are ready to go!
