Summer Dress, Gowns, Corsets and More: Dress Up According to Your Body Type
Summer Dress, Gowns, Corsets and More: Dress Up According to
Your Body Type
By Lorabella
Women are extremely conscious about their body but not every
woman can dedicate hours of her precious time to the gym and get
a well-sculpted figure. Dressing up those flaws in the body
becomes essential and hence knowing your body type in the first
place is very necessary.
Fashion experts have categorized body types into 6 categories,
which are in turn clubbed under top heavy, and bottom heavy
categories. These 6 categories are: Round, Inverted triangle,
Hourglass, Pear, Diamond and Straight shapes. Let us understand
which style suits each shape.
Round:
This figure accentuates the middle and displays slender legs
and a narrow hip. The lower half of the body is to die for and
hence is the focal point of attention while dressing up. A
slim-fitted A-line skirt will create magic and bring to the fore
your long and slender legs.
A small or busy print on flared outfits for the upper half of
the body will distract attention from a heavier bust.
Inverted Triangle:
Broad shoulders and narrow hips characterize an Inverted
triangle figure. Such women have extremely shapely legs to die
for and should capitalize on this fact while dressing up. Broad
shoulders can be balanced by wearing skirts that flare at the
bottom. It is important to add the necessary volume to the lower
body to balance the upper half. In this way, a curvaceous body
can be shown off.
Hourglass figure:
The waist is the best asset of the Hourglass Figure. Perfectly
balanced upper torsos in conjunction with a shapely lower half
together make a dream figure called Hourglass Figure. It is
necessary to accentuate the waist by wearing belts and tops that
fit right at the waist. Baggy clothes will only camouflage the
curves.
Pear:
Pear-shaped figure give away a shapely waist and a heavier
lower body. While dressing up this type of body, it is essential
to highlight the upper body in order that it looks fuller.
Straight skirts that take attention off the waist are the ones
to look out for and tops with a square neckline will help
projecting the shoulders that are broad. Balance needs to be
created around the bust to project a fuller bust.
Diamond:
A diamond shape differs from the pear as diamond shaped women
are more curvaceous and pear shaped are more proportionate at
that. Diamond shaped women have generous thighs and a broader
bottom. To dress up a diamond shaped women takes more effort in
accentuating the shoulders and the bust. A flirty-sleeved
structured top or a jacket will help in balancing the upper
torso and camouflaging the pitfalls.
Straight:
In this kind of a figure, the width of the upper and the lower
torso is almost equal. It is a pale fissure without a
characteristic bust and a flat bottom. The waist is also almost
undefined. In order to doll up a woman with a straight figure,
long tops with a long neckline and skirts that add volume to the
lower half are essential elements one must have. The most
important guideline here is to provide volume to the hips and
bust in order to look curvaceous.
It is important to know your body type in order to determine
the kind of patterns, and most importantly the kind of fabric
that should be used in your garments. You will only end up
buying the right kind of clothes that accentuate your figure and
in turn your personality.

Easy Summer Salads, Lighter Foods For A Brighter Summer
Easy Summer Salads, Lighter Foods For A Brighter Summer
By Sukhjeet Kaur
Easy summer salads are the way to go, now that the winter blues
are fading into the distance and salad days are here. The best
salads are light, bright and easy to prepare.
After all who wants to spend hours slaving away in the kitchen
when friends are round for lunch, the garden is in bloom and the
wine is chilled and ready to pour. But before you start to cook
you save a lot of energy by buying the right ingredients for a
simple salad. That way you don’t need the heavy bottled sauces
and dressings to make a great flavor
Do you really want to take a beautiful crisp summer salad and
soak it in a mixture of fat, sugar, salt and chemicals? If you
start off with great food and don’t do too much to it you don’t
need all these strong tastes as you still have great food.
All you need is to combine it well so that the flavors work
together, have a nice crunchy texture and add a little light
dressing to set it all off, and let the taste buds do the rest
Freshness is, as in all cooking, the way to a good salad. Don’t
take what the supermarkets give you. Although it’s easier to
pick up the ready packed tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, bell
peppers etc.
To make sure you get the best, take a minute or two and pick
over the vegetables, choose what is firm ripe and ready to use.
The same of course applies with meat and fish. There is a reason
why supermarkets prepackage, and it’s not always convenience. So
choose well, cook quickly and simply and your friends won’t have
finished the wine by the time you get there! Enjoy a little bit
of summer now with this easy poached chicken salad.
Easy poached chicken salad
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts (skinless)
1 finely sliced red onion
1 whole half onion
4 good ripe tomatoes sliced thickly
250 grams/4ozs salad leaves mixed
4ozs raisins soaked in hot water for ten minutes
1 half lemon
2 fresh or dry bay leaves
1-teaspoon peppercorns black
1 small French, stick loaf or similar sliced into 1/2 slices
For the dressing:
1/4 cup olive oil
1clove garlic crushed
1/2 dessert spoon Dijon or other mild mustard
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
To make the dressing, whisk the vinegar and mustard together
with the garlic, slowly add the olive oil while whisking and
season with salt and pepper to taste.
Bring a pan of water to the boil with the bay leaves, 1/2 white
onion, lemon and peppercorns.
Carefully add the chicken and simmer gently until cooked, if
you unsure it is worth investing a few dollars in a meat
thermometer. The temperature should be at least 75 celcius/167
Fahrenheit, put the sliced bread on a baking tray and drizzle
with the olive oil and season with salt.
Bake in a medium oven until crisp but soft in the middle. Mix
the leaves together with the onions and raisins. Turn in the
salad dressing and put into 4 good-sized bowls. Place slices of
tomato and bread around the edge. Slice the warm chicken at an
angle and put attractively on top off the salad. Sit back, enjoy
and get someone else to do the washing up.

The Best Ways to Avoid Getting a Bad Hotel Room
The Best Ways to Avoid Getting a Bad Hotel Room
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Sam_Qam]Sam Qam and Jack M Mack
Every holiday maker's nightmare is to reach their destination only to find that the hotel they booked is really horrible. Not just looking a bit naff, but crumbling walls, terrible service, smelly beds, missing things the advert promised or infested with rats. Having travelled far or paid a lot of money up front you could be confronted with a holiday that was supposed to be a relaxing break but which is now a hellish experience.
There is however a number of ways you can ensure that you never find yourself in this situation.
Testimonials
Testimonials are comments and recommendations left by previous guests of hotels that should give you an idea of the sort of experience they had. However, testimonials on a hotels website are usually edited or vetted by the hotel owners so you may only see positive comments there, though at least you will know that someone had a good time there.
Online Reviews
A better place to find more objective reviews is on one of the many online review sites such as Trip Advisor. These sites have listings of many hotels and cannot be directly edited by the hotel owners, so you will be more likely to hear a fair set of comments. Having said this, hoteliers can complain about certain comments to the website, which will then investigate by contacting the people who left the comment for some evidence of their presumably bad experience.
Friend recommendations
If you trust your friends then you could ask one of them for a recommendation for a hotel. They may have stayed somewhere like the Adelphi Liverpool which they may think you will enjoy or know someone else who can recommend somewhere for you to stay that could be classed as posh pads Liverpool. The only problem with this though is if you have very different standards when compared to your friends. Their super luxury might be your bargain basement.
Major online room selling companies
A good way to be sure that a hotel will meet a certain standard is to only book your hotel stays through a reputable online agency. These companies have a standard that they will require a hotel to meet in order for them to make it onto their website. This ensures the credibility of their website by making sure every hotel they send people to is going to provide a good experience. You can always complain to the agency if there is a problem and they have the power to kick a substandard hotel off their site.
