Fashion Clothing Tips for Short Women
By Ispas Marin

Petite curvaceous women definitely need to elongate their body using their clothing style for minimizing the volume. This is the general rule for the women owning this type of figure. In order to cover the faults of a figure not belonging to a tall, skinny 'giraffe' type model, you need to follow some essential tricks.

- Your aim is to elongate your body. The most frequent mistake petite women making in terms of clothing is cutting their bodies by using pieces of clothes as jackets and belts in the wrong proportions. Wearing large belts on top of pants or skirts together with blouses of different color is not the best choice as it cuts the body in two parts, drawing attention to the shortness of the figure.
- You should also avoid wearing extra fabric around the waist. You already possess a good amount of volume in this area and the last thing you need adding some more.
- A false myth is the idea that very long skirts make your legs look long. Very long, baggy skirts make your legs look shorter. Long skirts may make you look taller if they go down to the ankle level and if they are straight.
- A good trick to elongate your legs is to wear straight pants that cover your shoes. This will definitely add some extra inches to your legs.
- Mixing colors is permitted for petite women but remember that it is the monochromatic clothing that makes you look taller and slimmer.
- Avoid wearing thick fabric clothing as it adds extra weight to your figure.

:Wish List


Just early as today, my 5 yr-old niece is already telling me what she wants for Christmas and look what else she wants.... a BARBIE doll, she has tons of barbie already but i don't know why she wanted another one. Maybe bec. she wants to collect them and perhaps her other dolls dont have dress anymore. I am also guessing she wants to have this barbie with long dress .

7 Secrets of Highly Successful Sale Shoppers

7 Secrets of Highly Successful Sale Shoppers
By Cynthia Nellis, About.com

The golden rule of smart shoppers is to maximize each purchase.That doesn't always mean getting the best price, but getting the best price for what you really want. Find out more secrets of highly successful sale shoppers.

1. Off-Season Reaps Best Deals
2. Learn Sale Lingo
3. Make Friends With Sales Staff
4. End-of-Season Gives Best Selection
5. Invest in Classics
6. Don't be Tempted by Odds and Ends
7. Beware Coupons and Buy-One-Get-One-Half-Price

Retailers often put stipulations on coupons, such as requiring you to buy a certain amount before they take a discount (e.g. $10 off $50 or more). It sounds like a deal, but that example only amounts to a measly 20% discount. Select shoppers know they only save about 25% when they buy-one-get-one-half-price (ex: you pay $50 for one item, $25 for the next: Total of $75 on what would have been $100 purchase, thereby only saving 25%).

Look Gorgeous Even Without Make-Up

I am the type of person who doesn't like wearing make up every day bec. I don;t need it anyway since I am just here tending my internet cafe. A lip balm is just alright for me but I know someone who can't leave the house w/o any make up on her face and soemtimes it is flaking already lol. 

I guess we don't need lots of make-up just to hide all those blesmishes on our face. Of course special occasions are different we need to wear make up by then. I can sa we can be gorgeous even without if we are confident about ourselves. Dont' you think so?

Sale Sale Sale !!!

Lookie here Robinson's Department Store is having a great August Sale from Aug. 1 - Aug. 31 at all Robinson's Branches. This is actually one of my fave malls that I frequently go to aside from Greenhilss Shopping Center. It is quite near our place and very accessible for commuters like me. I always remember their mall wide Midnight Sale every year before Halloween bec. of the huge discounts that they have but the long lines in the cashiers makes the customer a bit annoyed. Oh well, I hope I can check out this sale this weekend and who knows I can buy a thing or two.
