DIY Slashed Jeans

We have seen this slashed jeans style few years back but it is still much "in" these days. If you want a rugged look you can buy jeans with holes on it or better yet make your own slashed jeans for it is just so easy to make.

The materials that you need are jeans and a scissor. Just cut your jeans as many cuts as you want and its done. Just few washing, the fray look will appear on your slashed jeans. If you have a pair of jeans and you didn't like the color that much, you can turn it into slashed jeans so you can still wear it and it will not go to waste.

Choosing Your Bathroom Ceiling Lighting

The bathroom is one of the most frequented areas in a home. Homeowners design their bathrooms with the whole family in mind and usually coordinate the color scheme fixtures as well as the wall and floor tiles. The bathroom ceiling lighting is also very important to the overall look of the bathroom. It should elegantly compliment the rest of the house while still being able to provide adequate lighting for the bathroom.

There are many types of lighting fixtures that are available today but people should be sure to choose fixtures that utilize energy efficient bulbs because the aim should be to reduce energy costs. The options for ceiling lighting include flushed and semi-flushed fixtures in addition to an array of shades and trimmings.

Flushed fixtures are set directly against the ceiling. To replace the light bulbs you have to remove the light shade. The advantage of the flushed fixture is that it is set against ceiling which prevents flies from landing on the actual light bulbs. The semi-flushed fixtures have a space between the fixture and the ceiling. These types of fixtures add a bit of style to the bathroom because of the spacing between the fixture and the ceiling. With the semi-flush lights there is also the option of rail lights which usually have two or more lights that have small individual shades similar to ceiling fan light shades.

Ceiling lighting fixtures for the bathroom are available in an array of styles that can compliment any decor. Homeowners are no longer limited just to white shades with silver or gold trimmings. Trimmings may be white black shades of brown and other colors. The shades are available in clear frosted or even tinted. With the semi-flushed types the shade options are even more diverse. 

When selecting the ceiling lighting for your bathroom there is no need to feel that you are limited with your choices. Find the fixtures that match your overall decor and use fixtures that utilize energy efficient bulbs so that you can save money. Be sure to choose fixtures that are durable and will enhance your bathroom's look. For wide selection of lighting fixture, be sure to browse http://www.lightingstoredirect.co.uk/bathroom-lighting for you'll find something that will suit your taste and budget.

Concerts are a fun way to spend time with friends. You get to see your favorite artists perform their songs and enjoy it with your besties. However, concert tickets are pricey, especially for the most popular artists. If you want to buy concert tickets without spending a fortune, pay attention to the advice below.

Anytime you purchase something online, you should check to see if there are discount codes that you can use to save money. It only takes a minute or two to search for them in your browser, and you can save as much as 50 percent off your purchase. During checkout, there is typically a box where you can type a discount code. It’s an easy way to save money.


There are several places you should look for discount codes on concert tickets. Check the artist’s website first, then any fan pages you can find. You should also search in your browser for keywords like “concert ticket discounts,” “concert ticket discount codes,” and “concert ticket coupon codes.” Hopefully you’ll find something to save you money.

Buy Your Tickets Early

Some people think they can get some pretty sweet deals on concert tickets by waiting to purchase them until the day of the event or a few hours before. This is one way to do it, but there is no way to guarantee you will get a seat if you wait. Plus, all of the best concert seats will already be taken. Additionally, you might be faced with higher prices because of scalpers.

You can still get a good deal on concert tickets, like
Linkin Park tickets, by buying them early, especially if you can find a promotion to save you money. Besides, you’ll get better seats the earlier you make your purchase. Additionally, if you join an artist’s fan club, sometimes they will give you special access to concert tickets early so you can get the seat you want.

In addition to concert ticket giveaways, radio stations sometimes have special phone numbers you can call to get discounted concert tickets or purchase them early. If you listen to your favorite radio station often enough, you might here about these deals.

Fashionable Medical Professionals

There are a lot of doctors, nurses, medical technologist ad more whom we often seen wearing their immaculate white uniform or colorful and patterned medical scrubs treating patients or using a medical equipment in laboratory or operating rooms. For some, they look less fashionable because of what they are wearing but since they need to be comfortable when they are working all the time scrubs and medical uniforms always fit their line of work.

After work, they can be fashionable as well especially if doctors will attend seminars or conferences. They can transform into just wearing hospital uniforms to glam gorgeous medical professionals.

Orchid Plants as Gifts

My mom loves to cultivate in our small front yard. Every morning upon waking up and taking a sip on her cup of coffee, she'll go straight to her garden to either sweep all the fallen dead leaves from our mango tree or water her plants. Just some of the plants that we have are mother's tongue, gumamela, san francisco plants, mini roses, orchids and other local plants that we have here. 

There's even an instance where she went out of the house and when she came back she already bought tons of plants that are ready to be re-potted. She says she feels alive and well every time she tills the soils and be with her plants. I guess it brings her joy and different euphoria.

Now, that Christmas is coming, I thought I'd just give her plants as gifts and I'm very positive that she'll be tickled pink.  I even saw orchids for sale online and they are perfect gifts this Christmas and other occasions for your mom or for anyone who loves plants and flowers.
