Picking The Right Lingerie For Your Body

Owning the right kind of lingerie can be flattering on your body. Here are a few pointers on how to pick styles that can make you feel sexy and confident:

Know your body type
There are several body types. You may be pear-shaped or someone gifted with an hourglass figure.You may be petite and busty. You may be plus-sized and muscular. When your wearing your regular clothes, notice yourself and see what suits you best. A low-cut top? A pair of hot shorts? Once you kow what you look good in, try and find lingerie that mimics your daily wear. It's all about enhancing your positives.

Decide what you want
Flaunt a body part that you love the most in yourself. Every woman has one body part she'd like to show off. Just look for lingerie that accents what you love, and what your partner loves. Don't obsess over things like cellulite and do not feel depressed thinking about your negatives. Lingerie always needn't be very skimpy. If a long gown can look good if it fits you well. Wear what you are comfortable in.

Experiment with style
You can shop your lingerie online but it won't give you the privilege on trying new things. For example, if you wish to wear a g-string this time, you can't try it until you go to shop. If you can't decide on something, you can try taking help of a very close friend who doesn't mind seeing you in your bare essentials.

Buy the right fabric
The fabric of the lingerie should be such that it should make you feel good when it touches your skin. Sequins may be good to look at but they make you feel itchy and uncomfortable. While trying to look like a sex goddess, make sure you are not very conscious. Opt for a fabric like satin or lace that not only looks sexy but is also very soft and smooth.

9 Shoes Every Girl Must Own

These are wardrobe staples. They make or break your look. All the designer clothes in the world are not going to get you in the well-dressed list unless you get your footwear right. :)

Make a statement. Make your presence felt. Here's a detailed list of wardrobe (footwear) essentials. Read on and follow:

1. Nude peep-toe pumps
Your go-to shoes, they can be worn with anything from formals to casuals to ethnic wear. The I-mean-business or girl-about-town shoes. They make your legs look longer (what more reason are you waiting for girl!).

2. Flat sandals
Perfect for days at the beach while soaking up the sun or for days when being a diva is not high on the list. They are super comfy and can be extremely stylish. Pick them up in bright colours, embellished with stones and/or dainty, intricate straps.

3. Ballet flats
Tired of running around in your heels but don't wanna compromise on style? Ballet flats spell Parisian chic. Pair them with flirty, floral dresses, denims, or tunics. Pick them up in lively colours to make a statement. These are a wardrobe essential.

4. Canvas sneakers
Sometimes you want to take a break from the girly look. Canvas sneakers are comfortable. They were made for running errands and looking cool at the same time. They also scream punk and street smart. Think Avril.

5. Metallic scandals
Get 'em in gold. Get 'em in silver. Get one in bronze. They scream sexy! Get one in sky-high stiletto heels. Unleash your inner goddess. Wear them with flowy, elegant gowns or short dressy numbers. Make sure you get yourself a fab pedicure before you slip into them.

6. Wooden platform sandals
So you have planned a lunch-cum-shopping date with your girlies. You have to be your stylish best. Can't spend a whole afternoon tottering in heels and ballet flats aren't glam enough. Wooden platform sandals are just the right shoes.

7. Open toe booties
Leggings and a girly tunic top. Cute. An all black attire complete with jacket. Badass rocker chic. No matter what look you are aiming for, the open toe booties have made themselves an indispensable essential.

8. Quirky, eye-ball grabbing shoes
Go all out and get yourself a whacky pair to show off your quirky side. Quirky not your thing? Get yourself a pair in a delicious neon colour. Eyeball grabbing footwear has to be such that even your outfit pales in comparison.

9. Black pumps
Remember, as a kid when  mummy wouldn't  buy you any thing else but a pair of basic black shoes? A pair of sexy black pumps can easily take you from the church to your workplace and straight into a part or a formal dinner.

How To Get a Facial at Home

There's no better way to lift your mood in the gloomy weather than pampering yourself. But since you cannot venture out due to the incessant rain, here's how you can give yourself a facial at home.

Cleansing is a must

Use a gentle cleanser with some warm water. Make sure that you choose one that is suitable for the weather — like a soy-based cleanser works wonders during the Dry season.

Steam for a clearer complexion

Getting a facial steam is the best way to not only rejuvenate your skin but also treat cold during the rains. Heat water in a pot and drape a towel over your head and let your skin absorb the steam for five minutes. Instead of scrubbing, this can be a great way to exfoliate your skin and cleanse out embedded dirt while hydrating your skin.

Pamper yourself with a massage

Choose a gel-based lotion to massage your face. Aloe vera gel or rose gel would be an ideal option. Massage your skin for approximately 10-15 minutes.

Follow it up with a facial mask

The next step is to prepare a facial mask with ingredients available at home. You can mash a banana and combine it with avocado or freshly squeezed citrus juice and add a drizzle of olive oil to it. Apply this paste on your face and leave it on for 15-20 minutes before you wash it off with water.

Don't forget to moisturise

Choose one that is rich in emollients and has strong antioxidants like vitamin C. Moisturisation makes your skin softer after a facial and also makes your skin glowing, while hydrating it.

So, there you have it. Why spend money when you can pamper yourself at home?. ;)

10 First Time Experiences For Newlyweds

Transition to married life is filled with many milestone "firsts," which strengthen the relationship with a spouse.

The Huffington Post has compiled a list of things that happen for the first time after a marriage:

-The first ever fight between a couple is a lot more different and is a lot more charged, the Huffington Post reported.

-Secondly, getting together with friends after the wedding is a little strange as some of them may feel that their married-by-30-clock is ticking, or become bitter that the newlyweds have "the perfect life."

-Another first that a newlywed has is their first major purchase together.

-The in-laws' problem is another first for the newlyweds as a husband is used to his family's flaws: He's learned how to tune out Mom's criticisms, Dad's elitisms, his sister's jealousy. And he just wants his wife to let their comments roll off their back too.

-The first time a couple is asked when they are having a baby also makes the list.

-It is also a must-do for many newlyweds to host a dinner party.

-Another first is when a husband is approached by the first "flirty girl."

-Then comes the part when the couple establish their first tradition together while honouring established rituals that were passed down from both of your families.

-The married holiday together is one more first.

-And lastly, the first time you get scared of losing your loving spouse.

The perils of playing away! Spurned girlfriend posts 'cheating boyfriend's lurid messages' on his own Facebook wall

This is actually a warning about the power of social media websites....lol.
If you are going to exchange a series of flirtatious Facebook messages with young women then it would be best if your girlfriend did not read them as well.
But that is what happened when Matt Hado, 22, went on holiday to the party island of Ibiza.

Angela Archbold took revenge on her 'cheating boyfriend' Matt Hado by hacking into his Facebook account and re-posting cringeworthy messages he had allegedly sent to other women
After reading some allegedly salacious messages her boyfriend posted to a number of revellers his furious girlfriend, Angela Archbold, 22, decided to exact her revenge.

She hacked into his Facebook account and published the embarrassing exchanges for all to see.
And for good measure she changed his profile picture to one of a rodent -  and branded him a ‘loverat.’
The resulting fall-out led to his Facebook page going viral on the internet.
Thousands of users have logged in to condemn him for his alleged two-timing behaviour and praise his former girlfriend.
One said: ‘Check out this guys page! Hilarious!! His GF found him cheating and published the lot on his Facebook! PhahHahHahahaha!
Another wrote: ‘Omg what an absolute creep! Good for you, what a complete s***b*g!’
However, others have criticised Miss Archbold for her actions.
Last night Miss Archbold, 23, a glamour model, said she re-posted the cringeworthy messages to exact revenge for his cheating.

Angela, who claims to have done topless modelling for Zoo and Maxim magazines, says revenge is 'sweet'
The aspiring model said: ‘It’s all about girl power. Us girls need to stick together.
‘It is disgusting how some men treat women. I am not standing for it. I don’t regret what I have done for a second.
‘Revenge has been sweet. I have even changed his password so he can’t remove the page.
‘It’s much better than sitting around moping.
‘I want to show other women they can be strong and don’t have to put up with this behaviour from men.’
Miss Archbold, who also claims to have done topless modelling for Zoo and Maxim magazines, said she is keen to pursue it as a career.
She describes herself on her portfolio as: ‘Very professional, one of the most down to earth people you will ever meet.’

Angela's work led to his Facebook page going viral on the internet
She said Mr Hado, who flew out to the holiday island with his mother and cousin on Tuesday last week, had promised to call her every day but when this didn’t happen she grew suspicious.
She added: ‘Call it women’s instinct but I just knew something was up. I hacked into his Facebook account last week and my worst fears were confirmed.
‘I was shocked at first, I didn’t know what to do. I spoke to Matt on the phone and he made pathetic excuses.
‘I stewed for a few days and then I decided to take revenge. Some of the messages were so cringeworthy, I knew he would be embarrassed and humiliated when everyone saw them.
‘It’s not fair what he did. He told me he loved me. I have a little girl who is only eight months old, and they had grown close.
‘Since I did what I did I have had lots of girls messaging me for advice about their cheating boyfriends.’
She says that Mr Hado, of Liverpool, reacted with venom yesterday when he realised what his girlfriend had done the night before.
He called her and begged her to remove the page, she claims, but she says she told him: ‘That is not going to happen.’
She claims he has retaliated by creating a new Facebook page and posting hurtful comments about her looks.
She said: ‘I am sensitive about my ears as I was bullied about them when I was younger and he has posted horrible things about me looking like Dumbo.
‘I have also suffered with my skin and he has written nasty things about that too.
‘I will be incredibly careful when it comes to dating men in the future. I trusted Matt but I was wrong. After this I am not sure if anyone will dare cheat on me again.
