New structures and new bold colors are now gracing the fashion runways. So, my question is "What’s your Super Personality?" Will you be the villain or the superhero? Seems like they are equally matched in the style and cost department. Check out some of the fashions that showed at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art:

“Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy.”.

Think you’ll NEVER wear anything so ridiculous. Time has a way of changing things…especially fashion. Plus, some are kinda cute already! So, don’t be surprised if you see me strutting around in my Superhero garb, mask and all .

It used to be that when it was time for your child to celebrate a birthday or holiday, you could either plan it yourself with whatever time you had here and there or you could hire a party planner who doesn’t even know your child. Well, innovation has struck the world of children’s celebrations because

They arrange specific times to spend one-on-one with their clients so that they really get an understanding of the child’s personality. From this point, the sky is the limit. They offer everything from decor to favors to invitations and it is all custom made just for your child and available anywhere in the world.

Obi belts will make for fun, fashionable accessory for almost any outfit. Get you a few in many colors and you will be able to change up many of your outfits you already have.

Life.doc is a very cool organizer. Just as it states, it’s your life in documents and all in one simple easy to use place; a very attractive red 3-ring hardbound folder. Made by a Buttoned Up, this is a very useful tool for anyone with a home and a family. This is one organizer, I would have to say, every family should have. Things you never would have thought about are kept in one precise place.

The Life.doc has 8 distinct sections covering an emergency plan, family info, health info, insurance, financial, legal, caregiver info, and handy home information. The ease of use and ingenious way of setting it up sold me. If comes with all the papers you need to keep your information and then you load them in the printer and (using their CD) print all your important information onto it. I love the professional look once you are done. You have a very neat clean folder for you and your family’s life.

No more rummaging through "the box" for me, I have My Life.doc.Very, very cool. Another cool product I am starting to use is the Fitness.doc. It keeps all my fitness and diet goals and routines in a little book I can just through into my gym bag. All I can say is I am now addicted to keeping my life Buttoned Up . 

Buttoned Up, helping to organize the world…..how nice!

Spanx is the girdle of the future, now! This popular body shaper is an addiction that most women will never part ways with. Imagine putting on a Spanx and looking anywhere from 2-10 lbs lighter…..and that’s without breaking a sweat.  Well, except for the wiggling you will do to get into these babies…and I do mean a wiggle! They can be worn under the tightest of clothes and never show panty line. They fit super snug but not uncomfortable. Once you have them on, you look slim, trim and amazing. They look like footless pantyhose that come right above your knee. If the bottoms aren’t addictive enough, they also have Spanx Bras, fittingly named Bra-llelujah. The bras hide that unsightly fat and bulges that show around because of your bra. Check them out and see what all the raving is about.  My personal favorite is the Hide & Sleek Cami! Spanx, making every woman feel and look beautiful, one panty at a time!!

Athletic Shoes have entered the Fashion Market and are becoming more and more cute rather than athletic. Whether you want to look good while working out or you just want a comfortable pair of cute flat shopping shoes, athletic shoes have it all. You can wear them with skirts, dresses, and you will even see them making their way onto the red carpet by big named celebrities. How about these for fancy sneakers:

Been skeptical about getting you a pair? Well, next time you see a pair of lovely lace ups you simply can’t resist, buy them! Because they’re not just for athletic wear anymore. Get fashionable, get your fancy sneakers!!

Get your Band Size:

1. Using tape measure, measure around ribcage directly under bust
2. Add 5 to that measurement and this will be your band size (ex: you measured 27"+5=32"band size)

Get Your Cup Size:

1. Measure around bust at the fullest part
2. The difference between this measurement and your band size will determine cup size. (ex: if your band size is 32" and your cup size 36", then you are a D cup, so your bra size is 32D)

The difference of bust size is:

• Clearance - don’t be scared of the clearance racks. Many times clearance racks can hold similar items as those on the regular priced items which may only differ slightly in appearance but greatly in price. Previous years staple items often can be bought up in many colors to set add to your wardrobe.
• Coupons - Never disregard a good coupon. Local papers, advertisement mailers, emails or online coupon codes are great ways to save a few to a lot of money.
• Salvage stores - Don’t sell short the idea of checking out a salvage store. These stores have new items that have been sold to the salvage store for a number of reasons. You can find incredible bargains on furniture, clothes, appliance, anything actually.
• End of the Season Shopping - Make sure to check out your favorite stores just as the new season starts. You can get items for pennies on the dollar. Some big retail stores will have a huge blowout around the end of each season where they will offer well over 50% off of the already reduced prices. GLORIOUS!!
• Mark you calendars - Be sure to ask the stores when their big events are then make a special note of these dates. Stores offer huge events certain times of the year and you can really find some steals at this time. So ask and you shall receive.
• Bundle Up - If shopping online pay attention to any free shipping offers. Many places will offer free or discount shipping when you order more than one item, it may be more beneficial to order more items at once. You can also get 2-fers for many items in stores…by one get one can be a great promotion.

If you have the will and the determination to find a great bargain, you can do it! Really serious about being a bargain shopper, try to never settle for retail. Become a hunter for the coupons, promotions, and special sales and spend less for more!! Now, go out and save some MONEY!!!!

< Shorts can come in many lengths and shapes. Depending on your age, size, and style there is a certain short you should choose. It seems that the older you get the longer your shorts should be. In fact, that is pretty correct, although there are shorts you can wear no matter what age you are and there is a stopping point on how long they get. Just because you get older doesn’t mean you have to start dressing like an old woman. Here is a brief list of the different types of shorts that are out on the market now, that can make you look and feel great at any age:

  Walking shorts - these are very popular right now. They fall right on the knee.

  Gauchos - yes, they are back and they are Fierce! Gauchos are one of my favorite types of short pants to wear. They can be casual or dressed up, very versatile. You should have a few pair of these in your wardrobe.

Bermuda Shorts - they are similar to the walking shorts, only they fall slightly to an inch or so above the knee.

Capris - they should correctly fall in the mid-calf area.

Crop pants - crop pants are really cute right now, what used to be considered high-water pants, they are now a fabulous trend. Crop pants fall right above the ankle.

With all the different types of shorts and short pants, this summer should fun and fashionable. You can be cool and stylish during the warm months and put away your jeans and pants.
