Decorative Lighting
Lighting plan is of vital Importance to your home decoration project. Indoor lighting complements different moods, feelings and every-day shades, practically telling the art of living. With shades of light, you can change the ambience from special to occasional and even extravagant, and create magic with special effects
Lighting Making Your Home Look Brilliant
Home lighting can dramatically influence the feel of a room, making it warm and inviting, cozy and comfortable, or cold and distant at the flip of a switch. If chosen correctly, it can have just as much influence on the look and feel of a room as your best piece of furniture. See some of the functions the lighting performs:
Focus Pocus: Put lighting to work creating focal points. Add lights to direct the eye in a new direction by focusing on a piece of art, furniture or the mantel.
Dim Some: Dimmers are an inexpensive trick-of-the-trade. They help set a special mood in the home by allowing you to manipulate the light. Install them at the wall for ceiling fixtures and even buy them for table lamps.
Space Case: Add more drama to a space with accent lighting. By illuminating the top of a bookcase, adding under-cabinet lighting or hanging a colored pendant over the kitchen island, you can create islands of light that bring the grain of the wood, the print of the wallpaper or the color of a wall to life.
Showing Personalized Taste: Every home is special. So is every individual, with his peculiar taste for shapes, patterns and inherent aesthetic sense. With all the decorative options out there today, you can use them to introduce your neighbors and guests to your taste when they are introduced into your home.
Don’t Wait: To buy lighting fixtures, it is important to plan earlier than other decorating ideas because there are frequently decisions that need to be made relative to the location and type of electrical outlet installation during construction. These decorative fixtures often are built according to individual order, so it needs time.

The Sexiest Legs
The Sexiest Legs: 5 % Longer than Average
Both for women and men By: Stefan Anitei
Long legs are really considered sexy. And if you thought than only men fix in this issue regarding women, you are wrong: women too assess how sexy a man is, based on this. A new research discovered that taller people are more physically attractive to the opposite sex, and legs that are 5 % longer than average are considered the sexiest in both genders.
"There are good evolutionary reasons for the preference. Long legs are a sign of health", lead researcher Boguslaw Pawlowski, of University of Wroclaw in Poland, told "The Guardian".
The study was made on 218 male and female subjects, put to rank the attractiveness of 7 men and 7 women from digitally altered images. All the people in the images had the same height, but their legs length was digitally processed to match the Polish medium value, or longer by 5 %, 10 % or 15 %. No matter the body shape and leg length, those with 5 % longer legs than average were considered the most attractive. The next level of attractiveness was the average leg length or 10 % longer.
However, legs 15 % longer than the average scored poorly.
"Extremely long legs in a woman could indicate poor child-bearing prospects", wrote the authors.
"Longer legs are one of many subtle cues that suggest good health, especially in women. Leg length is a good indicator of childhood nutrition in women because their legs stop growing once they reach puberty. So if a woman has long legs it suggests she grew up in a good environment and that has a positive effect on fertility. The effect in men is more subtle, because their legs continue to grow beyond puberty", said Prof Martin Tovee, of the Newcastle University.
The same research team had found that women regarded taller men as good for one night stands, but shorter men as better for committed relationships.
Many researches connected shorter legs to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and obesity-related diabetes, in both genders, while in men this was connected to increased cholesterol levels, the main cause of arterial disease and strokes. Recently, longer legs in women have been connected to a healthier liver at an older age.

Tips for Holiday Shopping
Shopping on-line is a fun activity, especially during the holiday season when you shop for loved ones. It offers you a wider range of choices as compared to a mall or a shopping center. You also save time as well as money doing it right from the comfort of your home snuggled on a comfortable chair by the fire place.
Spending some time on the internet researching before your purchases can be extremely helpful. Texere Silk, your on-line silk sleepwear holiday gift store, has some tips that will help you get top quality gifts and the best value for your money:
Spending some time on the internet researching before your purchases can be extremely helpful. Texere Silk, your on-line silk sleepwear holiday gift store, has some tips that will help you get top quality gifts and the best value for your money:
- Make a list. Think of the gifts and the recipients. Children love toys, Women love clothes, jewelry and perfumes and men would settle for pretty much any thing that they can use.
- Everyone continuously shops for ordinary items of use. Ensure that the gifts are unique.
- Shopping early in the season could have its benefits. You have a greater choice and the prices do not drop after the sellers announce their holiday discounts.
- Compare prices of similar items. Getting an item by a less known but good company is likely to get you a great item at a better price.
- Research the seller, go to their selling website and company website. Call to make sure that they are genuine and read the description of the items.
- Maintain records of your orders by keeping a copy of your order form, date of your order, the name of the company, its address and phone number.
- Many companies selling on-line make money on shipping. Choose companies that offer free shipping as a holiday promotion. This could mean big savings.
- Do not use checks and cash. Use credit /check cards since they offer excellent protection to you in case of an unforeseen problem.
Happy Shopping!
Sexy Lingerie
Sexy Lingerie: A great gift idea
When budgets are limited, consider discount lingerie. These days, with the uncertain economy, there are huge discounts to be found in luxury items like lingerie. You may not find them on a particular brand. But there are some websites that specialize in discount lingerie.
Whatever way you chose, make sure you buy the right sizes as lingerie is often not refundable. But for many women, lingerie is the perfect gift idea.
Shopping for a loved one and don’t know what to buy? If it is someone close to you, lingerie is always welcome. When given a choice between a toaster oven or sexy lingerie, most women will choose the lingerie. Why? Lingerie is a personal luxury item that says you are thinking about them. And while many women desire lingerie, they often prioritize more practical items rather than treating themselves to this luxury.
There are several ways to go when buying lingerie:
Buy a well known domestic brand. In the USA this would be Victoria’s Secret. If you know the woman has little lingerie, this might be a ‘safe way to go’.

Applying The Perfect Base For Your Make Up
The key to any professional make up look is getting your base right. If you apply your foundation and concealer correctly, your skin will look natural, smooth and unblemished. Get it wrong and you may end up looking like Dale Winton’s love child.
Fortunately, if you follow these 3 simple steps you can ensure that your foundation will always look natural and beautiful, giving you the base to perfect the rest of your look.
Stage 1 - Moisturize
5 minutes before applying your make up you should properly moisturise your skin as all bases will apply smoothly to well hydrated skin.
Remember to remove any excess moisturiser just before you start to apply your foundation as greasy skin will make the foundation slip and slide as you apply.
Stage 2 - Apply your foundation
The key to remember when applying your foundation is less is more. Never apply your foundation in large swathes, simply apply a few dots around your face and then blend together using either your fingers, or a foundation sponge.
Ensure the foundation is well blended around your hairline and jaw as these are the places where any joins are more likely to be noticeable. You should always choose a foundation which blends well with your skin tone and it is worth experimenting to find exactly the right shade for you.
Whenever possible you should apply your base in the same light as you will be wearing it, (i.e. for daytime use sunlight) as lighting does make a difference to your look.
Stage 3 - Apply Concealer
Again, you should use concealer sparingly to cover any obvious shadows (particularly under the eyes) and blemishes, which are showing through the foundation. Remember that in summer you may need to use a darker concealer if your skin is tanned.
Apply your concealer a few small dots at a time and blend with your fingers using a gentle back and forth dotting motion. Avoid pulling or rubbing the skin, particulary under the sensitive eye area.
Following the steps above and combining with high quality products will ensure you always have the perfect base on which to build your dream look.
