Blisstree Charade Firstly, why define your style? Things don’t always need labels or boxes around them, and your style is no exception to that rule. My concept of style definition is not simply to generalise or stereotype you; we’re not making you strictly ‘vintage’ or ‘boho’ or ‘punky’. What we are doing is giving you a powerful tool and signpost forward in your personal style evolution. ♥ Step One: Identify your inspiration. ♥ Step Two: Keep a style diary. ♥ Step Three: We are all just playing a part, so play yours well. ♥ Step Four: Ask questions. ♥ Step Five: Know that finding your style ‘definition’ may simply be a product of self-acceptance. "You have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Louise L. The fact is that if you can’t accept yourself as you are, you’re unlikely to accept yourself any better with a few external alterations – psychologically speaking, accepting who you are runs far deeper than that. ♥ Step Six: Know your style agenda. And, on a final note:

Because you can't have too many tutus. Liz and I are busily sewing our brains out to share our fall “look book” collections in a week or so. But, in the meantime, we do have a few projects that have been sitting on the back shelves. I am currently three outfits down and three to go, with bits and pieces in between like blind-stitch hemming (I don’t know why but I dislike blind-stitch hemming, so I always leave it until the end, even with the nifty foot– I am weird.) But I am totally stuck at finding a girls’ navy blue skinny belt for one of my dresses…..anyone seen lately? I am getting pretty desperate….it’s what I have envisioned all along and I am at the point where I need to find one!!! (Anyone ever made a skinny leather belt before?) In other news, enjoy a quick and easy project…..from this summer that I never posted. We had a seventh birthday party around here a month or so ago. I wish I were great about big elaborate parties…..but I am not. Supplies: And here’s what you do… ~Elizabeth
Hey Kiki In one form or another, night clubs and dance clubs have a source of fun, amusement and enjoyment for many people since Prohibition. Party-goers come together on the dance floor to enjoy a night full of dance, drinks, and music. To make sure that you’re having fun and staying cool (literally), and make sure you follow these tips: Be confident in the club. • Dress: Wear some lighter stuff such as cotton or linen shirts and pants that help you stay cool for a long time. Extra layers of clothes such as coat should be checked at the door, and hats should be taken off as well. • Hydration: You should always have a drink of your choice to remain hydrated at the club. • Face or Hand Towel: Going to a Salsa club or othe steamy environment may lead to excessive sweating. • Breaks in between dance: You should take small breaks in between dancing to relax and enjoy a drink with friends. These are some points are worth considering before going to a nightclub.

ICDL - International Children's Digital Library Monster Page of Halloween Project Links Why I’m Proud to be a ‘SoSi’ Traveller - Solo & Single - Backpacker Becki A New Kind of Traveller… There’s times when it scares me silly thinking I am going to be a solo female traveller. Not a solo female traveller who eventually meets up with a group (which I have done previously give or take a few days of solo-dom), but one who will, at times, be completely alone for a very long period of time. However, there’s a new element to add to the mix. I’m not just a solo female, but a SoSi – a solo, SINGLE traveller. As much as it would be handy (male protection), not so lonesome (good company) and somewhat cheaper (sharing a room), a part of me is stupidly excited about all the prospects that being a SoSi female on the road will bring and all the amazing doors that will open for me. I think it’s hard to find people to travel with generally. And it’s the same with guys, except you can be a bit more vocal when a boyfriend irritates you. ME TIME: I can do what I want, when I want and where I want.
We Read Values: where tech and handmade converge The tools will change. Your values can stay the same. Tweet this! A friend of mine recently said this at a tech conference talk, but I think it’s applicable in so many places. Things change. The stock market goes up and down. In fact, the whole talk reminded me of the handmade community, specifically the conversations happening over at Oh My! This conference was about a specific technology, Ruby, but, like most things, being a Ruby software developer is really more mixed-media than any one particular craft. We are a community. Ruby programmers, just like indie crafters, are a community. Sharing Tech-wise, we’re all about Open Source. Elegance and beauty Does it seem strange to you that nerdy, pocket-protector engineers care about beauty and elegance? Having an impact You may have heard about Google’s motto: Don’t be evil. Fundamentally, both tech and handmade have had to reconcile the need for money and the need to make and be creative. Your customers see your authenticity and values.
Lovepanky - Life All of us want to know how to be happy in life. But we look for happiness in different ways. And almost all the time, greed and want for luxury takes the driver’s seat in the pursuit of happiness. And many years later, the older folk look back and realize how their pursuit of the finer things actually stopped them from enjoying the true happiness life can offer all around us. How to be happy in life If you want to experience true happiness, you don’t really have to follow the path others preach. Each of us have our own paths to experience happiness in life. So if you’re ambitious and want money, go ahead and make some for yourself. Contrary to what many say, money and diamonds can make you feel happy too. The real secret behind knowing how to be happy in life is to slow down and look around once in a while, as you speed down the road of your personal ambition. Understanding true happiness in life #1 Be nice to people who matter You’re the popular one, aren’t you? #2 Be more efficient
