Raising Girls’ Self-Esteem with Real Women Models
Posted on November 29, 2012 | No CommentsAdolescent girls often suffer from low-self esteem because they are critical of themselves and their figures, especially when they compare themselves to the air brushed, perfectly edited, fashion models. Even a plus size model is typically a size 8, which is not actually plus size; they are just healthier looking than waif models who are a size 0. (Plus sizes don’t usually begin until size 14 or 16.) While designers argue that they need rail thin models so the clothes hang right from the model’s frame, perhaps what we actually need are designers who make clothes that fit real women with real curves. That hasn’t happened yet, but there are signs that the industry is changing. 1. Dove campaigns. Dove recently launched a campaign to... -
Getting Ready For Fall
Posted on October 24, 2012 | No CommentsGetting ready for fall can involve a lot of changes both inside and outside the house. As the weather gets cooler and wetter, you need to make sure that you are prepared for the season ahead. And if you live in a very cold climate, you need to really make sure that you are winterized already. Outside The House You should probably start outside the house when it comes to getting ready for fall. It is nicer to fix things now when it is still warm, rather than when it really gets cold and wet.

Tattoos: Fashion Fopar, or Fashion Trend?
Posted on April 23, 2012 | No CommentsA fashion trend that surely everyone in the western world must of noticed is the large number of tattoos people are getting. Hell there are even television shows based on tattoos these days (I am thinking of you Miami Ink). On the runway tattoos generally are still a no-no but look to any sporting field or social setting and tattoos are everywhere. Now fashion is an industry usually dominated by the majority opinion, and as we know its an industry that changes often. Where tattoos fit into this is still somewhat of an unknown although I have my hunches. Because the tattoo is permanent, unwavering and a reflection of a single point of time, I believe they will always be a fringe element of fashion... -
Modern Advances
Posted on April 21, 2012 | No CommentsYesterday I wrote a post on dermatology for proper skin care. Whilst researching the topic I came about an incredibly interesting new treatment for skin cancers. It’s a non invasive treatment using high frequency radiation for the elimination of tumors. Its known as brachytherapy.

Medicine: The key to perfect skin?
Posted on April 21, 2012 | 1 CommentA slightly off topic post, but still important in the fashion/beauty game. I have a personal friend who was having trouble with “acne” and tried everything. Pro-Active, Clearasil, salt treatment, lemon treatment, no treatment, she really did try a lot of things. Eventually she bit the bullet and went to see a dermatologist. Now we all know how important and how beautiful naturally smooth and clear skin is. But its suprising how few of us turn to the medical profession for help, we seem to be captivated by the self-help, tv deal type of skin treatment. My friends visit to the dermotologist proved fruitful, mainly in identifying the skin issues as not being related to acne and hormones. After a couple of months my friends...
