His and Her?s Guide to Looking Good on the Beach

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011
bandeau swimsuit

No, it’s not an oxymoron; you really can find the perfect suit to flatter your figure if you just understand a few things. The very first thing to know is that there are very few perfect bodies out there. Everyone has something they are trying to deal with. Here are a few tips for HIM and HER on how to impress when forced to wear very little clothing….

A Woman’s Guide to Looking Good on the Beach

Small on Top

If you’re small on top, you may want to try the newest, little swimsuits from Brazil. The Brazilian woman is generally smaller on top than the Australian girl, and their swimsuits are cut accordingly. Look for tops with a touch of padding, or an under wire, demi-bra style that makes the most of a beautiful, dainty, bust line. Try to find a top with adjustable straps at shoulders and around back so that you can tighten and adjust things, to help fill out the top line. You are very lucky that you have the body to wear those cute, ruffled tops that are so hot right now, so go for it. And as for bandeau tops, only you can wear those well. You can also show off in those tiny, tri-tops that the big busted girls only dream about. Avoid tops with too much fabric or have a poor fit. Opt for separates, where you can choose your top and bottom separately.

Big on Top

You may need some extra support; underwire tops can work well and look great. Halter-top bikinis can be a good choice by offering support, while providing some sexy cleavage too. Look for styles that are banded around the midriff and can be tied in back and around the neck. This style will give you some lift and will allow you to make adjustments for a personal fit.Look for one-piece swimsuits with some structure in the bust, such as soft foam cups or at least, a shelf bra. Straight cut bust styles such as a classic tank can look clean and sporty. Wide shoulder straps will also be much more comfortable than thin, spaghetti straps. Avoid strapless bandeau tops and those tiny, tri-tops that offer minimal coverage. Again, make sure to get a suit where you can order the top and bottom sizes separately.

No Waist

No problem. It’s not that you don’t have a waist, it’s that you hips are slim. If you don’t have many curves, create some by wearing one-piece suit with a high-on-the-thigh cut. A belted waistline on a one-piece suit will give the appearance of a whittled middle. So will a draped, surplice detail that pinches in at the waist, or a curvy seam line that runs down each side of the torso. Bikinis are good for you. Add some illusion at the hips with rings, ruffles and bows. If you’re small on top, go for a strapless bandeau. Go for a dark, solid bottom and a wildly printed or embellished top. Avoid solid-colored or horizontal striped one-pieces.

Plus size figure

Show a little skin in just the right places and you will look seductively svelte and super sexy! Look for one-piece swimsuits with lace or mesh inserts. A strategically placed cut-out, or a deep V neckline, can really change your visual image. Lengthen your thigh with an adjustable ruching detail at the hip. A sheer sarong can give you a little confidence and still look totally glamorous. Dark, cool colors are always good. So are swirling, or V patterns. Try a swimsuit with dark, solid panels down each side of the torso and a floral printed middle. Avoid too much fabric. Modesty is certainly OK, but too much coverage is not necessarily a better option. Also, stay away from white, as well as bright, neon fabrics and those nappy textiles.

Big on Bottom

The newest, mini-skirted bikinis are too cute and made just for you! Don’t go for a super frilly one, though. Instead, pick a smooth, skimming skirt that is short and sweet, but covers what it needs to. A ruffled or highly decorated top is OK though. The details will draw attention to your top half. You could also go for a moderate, bottom bikini that has a 3 inch side…very chic! Make that a solid bottom and print top for a super effect.Avoid boy shorts, too skimpy bottoms, or lots of ruffles and details at the hips.

Whatever you end up wearing, do it with confidence!

A Men’s Guide To Looking Good On The Beach

The beach is a fashion minefield for men. So we’ve put together a foolproof guide to looking good on the beach. Flex your muscles, and enjoy the female attention with this must-see video on beach fashion.

Body Hair

Having chest hair isn’t a problem, but you won’t attract the right sort of attention if you look like a Wookie from behind, so get a back wax before your holiday. Leave your pins alone though, bald legs will make your calfs look like two anaemic kippers frying in the sun. Slightly hairy feet are ok, as long as you don’t look to much like a Hobbit on its summer holiday.

Shorts

If you’re more Borat than Bond, a skimpy swimsuit is only going to draw attention to the bits you will want to hide, and no amount of posing and posturing is going to cover this up… So a loose fitting pair of shorts is probably the safest bet. Patterns and vivid floral prints will suit those of a more flamboyant nature.

If you’re insecure about the size of your manhood you could stuff bra padding or a cricket box in your shorts to accentuate your package.

But beware, if someone shows an interest in you they’ll be disappointed when your stick of rock turns out to be a toot sweet

Sarongs

The humble sarong – simple, stylish and such an easy garment to put on… well, for those who know how. Whether you’re off to the south coast or the south pacific check out Videojug ‘Beach Fashion’ for a variety of ways to wear a sarong with style, rather than like a bafoon.

Footwear

An even worse crime than the banana hammock, is hitting the sands with a sock and sandal combination. Wearing trainers with bare feet is also bad news, not only for your image, but also for the environment. Keep it simple: stick to flip-flops or Birkenstock-style sandals.

Make sure your feet are in good condition; dry flaky skin and toenail fluff will leave your hooves coming off second best to the beach donke.

Headwear

What you wear on your head can define an outfit, and there is little middle ground: it’s either in or out, so keep an eye out for passing trends. That said, there are some eternal no-nos…..first and foremost the comedy hat – what better way to show people you’ve got a sense of humour, right? Wrong. Novelty hats are as bad as shellsuits and mullets. It’s not big and its not clever. Bandana’s may help to keep hair off your face whilst look stylish, but its definitely doesn’t suit you sir, and remember hankerchief’s will just lead to comparisons with George Formby.

Accessories

Too much jewellery is never a good thing and should be kept to a minimum. A single surf-style necklace or leather bracelet can work for you, but looking like an extra from Pirates of the Caribbean will not.

Try to keep your sunglasses simple. Sharp-angled, sports shades with rainbow coloured lens’ won’t suit everyone. If you don’t suit the surfer/tour de france look, try going all broody and Top Gun with a pair of aviator shades.

Image projection

The beach is for posing, not for exercise, so only get active if you are athletic by nature, playing with a bat and ball on your own won’t win you admiring glances. But being energetic isn’t the only way to perk the interest of the more discerning members of the public. Display your powerful intellect with a carefully chosen book, a classic or current bestseller will help give the impression your as deep as the ocean in front of you. Whereas a graphic novel or a copy of Guns and Ammo will send the ladies into a faster retreat than the Red Army.

Now that you’re more Baywatch than crimewatch just lie back and relax!

Importance of Good Sight for Safe Driving

Monday, June 27th, 2011

We live in an age where getting from one place to another has never been easier. Need to pick up something from the store? Hop into your car. Need to visit a sick friend? No, problem, your car will get you there. Need to move stuff from one area to another? Again – those four wheels on your automobile is the way to go.

However, in order to drive safely and properly, one needs perfect eyesight and the ability to reflexively prevent a possible accident. Day driving presents dangers such as glares from the sun; while driving at night is especially dangerous. It requires special visual attention and focus owing to the glare of lights against the darkness, not to mention the darkness itself. At night, ones pupils dilate and even the best sighted people become short-sighted, and tend to see more glare and halos.

One also seems to have less peripheral vision. All these factors together result in visual fatigue and as statistics prove, even though night driving actually occurs less than day driving – both in time driven and in the amount of drivers on the road – close to half of road deaths occur while at night. In both cases, many deaths occur because drivers claim to to have been faces by a harsh glare that prevented them from seeing clearly.

So, what is the answer to protecting our eyes in both conditions?

First, one must wear sunglasses during the day – whether prescription or non-prescription. Aside from protecting ones eyes against harmful AVA/UVB rays, sunglasses should also include an anti-reflective coating to protect ones eyes from glares. The color lens also helps to enhance the visibility of contrast and depth perception, which ensures sharper visuals, less haze, and all round clarity.

For people who wear eyeglasses and cannot think of constantly having to swap their regular prescription eyeglasses for prescription sunglasses whenever going out, they can have photochromic lenses fitted into the frames. These lenses play the same role as sunglasses by turning dark outdoors and returning to regular lenses indoors, but you must check that they have been coated with the appropriate anti-glare protection.

Note: Following surgery, patients need to be extra vigilant while driving as the operation could result in seeing a halo effect – especially at night. Others may find that eye surgery drastically improves their night driving ability. In the end, each case is individual and should be viewed and treated according to its specific needs.

If you already wear prescription eyeglasses, a thorough eye examination may prove that you actually need separate, stronger lenses for night driving. If this is diagnosed, immediately purchase the new eyeglasses and ensure to have them coated with anti-glare protection. You should ALWAYS wear these glasses for night driving, without them you are a danger to yourself and others while on the road. If you do not generally wear glasses, you may want to buy eyeglasses with placebo lenses, but coated with the anti-glare tint. One of the most important points to remember when you buy glasses for driving is that cheap eyeglasses may be just that – cheap – so invest in a high quality pair of glasses frames.

Pile them on and mix and match necklace combinations for a boho chic vibe. Itâ??s all about layering and creating unique noteworthy combinations. Try an oversize pair of hoop with delicate cut outs or large discus shapes to draw attention to your collarbone.

Nights on the Town â?? To dress up or re-vamp your LBD (little black dress), add a statement necklace with large gemstones, crystals or beads. By adding a splash of bright citrus color, like lime green, canary yellow or hot pink, youâ??ll create an entirely new outfit. Keep the rest of your accessories simple and let the statement piece be the center of attention.

Beach and vacation attire â?? Look for jewelry made from natural materials like wood, cork, leather and suede. You can find some great candy colored beaded necklaces and printed bangles that will spice up neutral colored outfits. Consider ethnic-inspired jewelry in vibrant colors for maximum impact.

Casual Friday â?? Donâ??t be afraid to rock an armful of bangles or a fun necklace with a peasant blouse and tailored denim. Even if you have to wear a suit, opt for interesting drop earrings or a multi-strand pearl choker. Just because youâ??re a working girl doesnâ??t mean you have to lose your fashion sense at the door!

Whatever you choose to wear this season, make sure you are finishing it off with colorful jewelry that will make your outfit memorable.

Looking Good! a Plus-size Woman’s Revolution

Friday, April 29th, 2011

As a plus-size woman, Iâ??ve gone through a real journey to discover and claim my own beauty, which I think is okay, since even Oprah Winfrey seems to struggle with that same issue — and hey, sheâ??s OPRAH for heavenâ??s sake.  But when I look back, it was really a situation that began, and ended, with me.  First of all, other people always thought I was pretty (and I donâ??t just mean my mom!).  And except for the once-in-a-blue-moon comment about my weight, I was often complimented on my beautiful face, great complexion, and fun and friendly disposition.  In the end, I had to admit that it was something inside of me that held back and refused to see the incredible woman I was â?? inside AND out.

In a nutshell, the problem was that I was eternally â??on holdâ? — deep inside, I always thought that I would only â??reallyâ? be attractive to other people after I lost weight. And following along that line of thinking, I simply put a lot of my life on hold.  Every year, I thought that when I lost weight, I could finally go swimming or take a great tropical vacation (and so most years, I didnâ??t even buy a swimsuit). I thought that when I lost weight I would wear shorts and have a variety of tank tops (and so I suffered through endless hazy summer days in black leggings or long skirts and hid myself beneath button down tops, or maybe Iâ??d risk a short-sleeve tee).  And I ALWAYS thought that when I lost weight, I would buy new clothes.  (So I rarely enjoyed a beautiful new dress and didnâ??t even daydream of a closet full of great choices.) 

Thankfully, over time, that has all changed.  Part of it has been a much improved level of self-confidence and self-acceptance.  Like may women, I AM always working on my weight — I try to make healthy choices and eat right, and I walk every single day — and I remind myself that I have gained very little over my adult life — my set point is simply a gorgeous size 18.  I also remind myself that feeling beautiful is a struggle that many women face, regardless of their size.  So over time, I grew some gratitude to go along with my knowledge that I was a beautiful woman. 

With that newfound self-confidence in place, it made room for the other part of my self-discovery â?? fueled by the full figured fashion world.  Plus-size women have definitely had a terrific revolution in the clothing industry over the last decade.  Gone are your motherâ??s muumuus and style-deprived, depressing wardrobes of black and more black. 

Today, my closets and drawer are a trip through designer fashions and a skip down style street!  And this is in no small part due to full figured, powerful, gorgeous celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Queen Latifah.  So now, in the summertime, I have no less than three plus-size swimsuits (one of them, a two-piece fuscia tankini with a great lace sarong).  And I take them on fabulous island vacations all over the globe.  I also have a rainbow of plus-size capris in every shade of the rainbow to pack in my suitcase and a drawer full of beautiful plus-size camisole tops to go with them.

In the winter, every day I get to choose from a different plus-size top and stylish pants or a great looking split skirt and silk blouse to go with it â?? and of course, some fabulous accessories to compliment it all (a MUST have for the full-figured womanâ??s business wardrobe). 

My point is this â?? while I may always be working on my weight and chasing better health (and hey, who isnâ??t), I know that looking great is a BIG part of feeling great.  And thatâ??s an accessory we ALL deserve!
