Fashionista Galore
Since I am pregnant, I am too lazy to go shopping to the mall for my stuff. Good thing I came across this website and have seen their Womens Catalog section that has a huge selection of every women's need. Oh this is awesome! They have the fashion, accessories, swimwear, lingerae, footwear and many more. From different sizes to different style, name it and they have it. What I like on their website is that, they have the same price to the different sizes of their clothing line which is more advantageous to us shoppers and could save more and time. The fashion trend is also in on this website which tells me that their clothing line are the latest and in demand in the market. Visit their website now!

Budgeted Fashionista
1. Gladiator Heels - Whether you're tall, short, heading to the office or heading out after dark, a pair of killer gladiator heels are in order. Heidi Klum and Gwyneth Paltrow are expertly teaming them up with little black frocks and heavy eyeliner while Aussie gals are going ga-ga over Wittner's "vixen" heels, while Zu Shoes, Nine West and Shoe Box Shoes are doing great versions too. If you're able to get your hands on brands like Sergio Rossi, Jimmy Choo, Balenciaga or Givenchy gladiators, you won't be disappointed.
2. The Bejeweled Clutch - Spice up any outfit by teaming up a pair of skinny jeans or a little black dress with the bejeweled clutch. Splurge on one in neutral or dark colours to ensure it can be mixed and matched from day to night. We're loving Mimco, Mango and Witchery, while you can never go wrong with a black classical Prada or Chanel purse - staples in any wardrobe for decades to come.
3. The LBD - Audrey Hepburn knew it, as did Coco Chanel. The little black dress is one item that will give you the biggest return on your buck because you can wear it day, night, cocktail or casual. You can't go wrong with local brands like Camilla and Marc, Nicola Finetti and Rachel Gilbert, while for super-glam LBDs that will stay in your wardrobe for a lifetime, source one of those super hot Herve Leger bandage dress, a Diane Von Furstenberg wrap or a Paul and Joe shift. They're so comfortable, versatile and easy to wear, you won't ever want to take them off!
4. Ballet Flats - The good news is that comfort is making a fashionable come back, especially in the form of those oh-so-soft ballet flats. For pure indulgent can't-live-without ballet slippers, you can't go past the uber luxe brand Lanvin, while Chanel's pair with their signature CC's attached on the toes are every stylista's fashionable dream. For a local version, Samvara's cute silver pair with buttons on the toe are sure to impress.
5. Gold Bracelets - Ooh la la! Channel your inner Liz Taylor and chunk it up with a bunch of super chunky gold bracelets. Whether big and bulky or small and slim is your thing, Samantha Wills, Jan Logan, Dinosaur Designs, Diva and Equip will help you find the right ones to fit your style.
6. Printed Scarf - Notice how every fashionista worth her aviators is sporting an oversized scarf, despite the weather or event? That's because the latest offerings are too good to pass up. For summer style, keep them light and oversized with cute prints such as Gucci and Missoni, while Sportsgirl, Easton Pearson and Karen Walker versions will spice up every outfit.
7. Classic Trench Coat - Everyone from Victoria Beckham to Angelina Jolie know the power of a classic trench. Classic Burberry do it best, while you can't go wrong with Giorgio Armani or Hugo Boss. Saba, Marcs and Camilla and Marc versions are light and versatile - great for any season.
8. Gold-rimmed Aviators - Move over Nicole Richie because bug-eye sunnies are out and aviators are in. Tom Ford is a mastermind at the perfect pair of aviators, while you can't go wrong with the classical Ray Bans. Morrissey and Le Specs do great local versions that won't break the budget.
9. Designer Watch - Rachael Zoe swears by her favourite Cartier watch (designed for men!) while Marc Jacobs' and Michael Kors' funky versions look more like glam accessories than functional time pieces. Juicy Couture are putting clocks into everything from rings to necklaces while every gal needs a Guess watch in her wardrobe. How else are you going to be fashionably late for all those engagements?
10. Distressed denims - Rip, tear and wear out your favourite jeans because the distressed look is back in Vogue. Our favourite picks include Ksubi, J-Brand and Sass and Bide and while the prices are big for a pair of denims you could have slashed yourself, consider these worth splurging on for now because they return every season, and are so comfortable that you won't want to take yours off for years to come.

Fashionable and Stylish Eyeglasses
All their eyeglasses have thin and Light 1.57 index lens, high quality stylish frame, anti scratch coating, full UV protection, lens edge polishing and beveling, quality hard eyeglass case and microfiber lens cleaning cloth. The good thing about Zenni Optical is that, they will rely on your prescription. They don't just sell eyeglasses right away but instead they always make sure their clients are safe. They needed your prescription as their basis for your eyeglasses. They also offer 50% money back guaranntee if you' re not satisfied with the product you get. But for sure, you won't hesitate to buy one because their eyeglasses is as low as $8. Very affordable right.
To me, my personal favorite is rimless bendable plastic. It is light, has a flexible frame, and a spider web design on temples. It is very fashionable and stylish. So now I know where to get the eyeglasses I need. Below is the image of the rimless bendable plastic with the detail footage on it's web design temples.

Wedding Invitation Colors
The Meaning of Colors in Your Wedding Invitations
When you choose your wedding flowers, you probably gave at least a passing thought to what those flowers symbolized. For example, red roses usually represent passionate love and snapdragons symbolize deceit. Well, when you're choosing colors for your invitations, you may want to keep the idea of symbolism in mind, too, because every color has associated meanings, as well. You may want to read Feng Shui Wedding Invitations.
Plus, those color meanings vary from culture to culture, so if you're marrying into a non-Western culture or inviting guests from many different cultures, you may want to keep some of these differences in mind.
White
White is a common color used with weddings in the West – mostly because of its association with purity and innocence. However, white can also be associated with coldness and cleanliness (think about how white a doctor's office is), as well as winter, snow, and peace.
In Eastern countries, white is often associated with death and mourning, possibly because dead bodies are covered in white shrouds. This association should not seem that strange since even in the West, when we think of someone dressed up like a ghost we picture them covered in a white sheet.
Black
Black is not as common for weddings because in the West it has such a negative connotation. When we think of black, we think of unlucky black cats, evil lurking in dark places, as well as sadness, grief, and death.
However, black is also associated with sophistication and modernity. That's why so much modern furniture and most electronics are black.
Blue
Blue is perhaps one of the best wedding colors to choose. Research has shown that blue is related to the least amount of negative connotations and the most positive ones, regardless of culture. It seems you'd have a hard time going wrong with blue, especially since it is associated with so many good things, such as clear skies, quiet seas, tranquility, loyalty, fresh water, and truthfulness. In fact, in some other cultures, blue is viewed as a color that can keep away evil spirits.
Probably the most negative connotation for blue is obscenity. Between the 17th and 19th centuries, laws forbidding immoral behavior were called blue laws. The reasons for using the word “blue” to describe them is not known, but even that negative association is not common in today's generations.
Red
Although red roses may be a sign of love, the color also has a number of less positive connotations, including blood, war, death, anger, fire, and danger. Red also symbolizes passion, sex, and excitement, so it might be a better choice for the honeymoon than for the wedding invitations.
In China, however, red stands for good luck and celebration and in India red means purity and is frequently used as a wedding color – that might make it an ideal choice for announcing your special event.
Pink
While pink is a tint of red (basically red mixed with white), its connotations are usually more in lines with what you'd expect for a wedding invitation color. In fact, marriage is one of its meanings. Admiration, love, and spring time are also associated with the color. Plus, it is the color of femininity so women tend to be drawn towards it.
Of course, pink's associated with breast cancer awareness may make it somewhat less desirable for some couples.
Green
In the U. S., green is a powerful symbol of wealth and money, as well as its associated characteristics – greed, jealousy, and envy. Green is also strongly associated with nature and the environment, as well as fertility and rebirth.
Green has also been associated with evil spirits, including the devil during the Middle Ages. Some European countries view green as unlucky while others view it as the color of disgrace and corruption.
Yellow
Yellow is a bright color that conjures up thoughts of sunshine and summer immediately. It is also associated with good feelings like happiness, joy, and hope. Some may also view it as a color of wealth because of its closeness in shade to gold. In Japan, yellow is a particularly important color because it is associated with royal family and stands for courage.
There is also a down side to yellow. Yellow can symbolize illness (because of jaundice), caution, and cowardice. During the Middle Ages, yellow – like green – was associated with the devil, as well as with death. In Egypt, yellow represents grief and mourning.
Purple
Purple's many shades have become a popular addition to weddings over the years, possibly because of some of its associations. Like yellow in Japan, purple has come to symbolize nobility and royalty in Western cultures. Darker shades of purple are also associated with sensuality while lighter shades represent romance.
Purple also has other connotations. For example, purple was adopted by many homosexual rights groups for a symbol in the West. In Thailand, purple is the color widows must wear while mourning their lost husbands.
As you can see, most of the colors above have some positive and negative connotations. What's most important is choosing colors for your wedding invitations that symbolize good things for the two of you.
