~Man Bag
These guys have redefined a man’s style by adding this once female-ruled accessory to their attire. The “man bag” or “murse” has been one of the most talked about trends in men’s fashion. Whether some think it’s feminine or not, these dudes have ignored the snickers from women and bashing from men with these stylish oversized totes.

Fashion › Re: Cures For A Shopaholic? by mohawkchic(f): 8:06pm On Jul 12, 2009
~Before following the Rules,lets find out what type of "Shopaholic" You are!! cheesy


"The term shopaholic used to mean someone who liked to shop, maybe a little too much. Now being a shopaholic may mean that you are a compulsive shopper who spends beyond your limits, buys things you have no use for, and[b] uses shopping as a way to feel better temporarily.[/b]


Some believe that the compulsive shopper or shopaholic is actually suffering from an addiction. Addiction is defined as having a compulsion to a commit a behavior, being unable to stop a behavior, and continuing the behavior despite harmful consequences. Research now shows that addictive behavior often provides a momentary lift in mood. A flood of “good feeling” producing hormones rewards a shopaholic. Unfortunately the lift is not permanent, and the shopaholic must go out and shop more in order to find the next boost in hormones.



In a sense, when one is shopping, they are given a few moments of good mood. This is a momentary mental reward. So it encourages one to repeat the pattern in order to feel that “high” produced by shopping and purchasing.

However, the shopaholic frequently begins to search for more and more “highs,” which translates to greater expense. Once the shopper begins to damage his or her own life by spending, or the compulsive shopping interferes with relationships, then true addiction exists, particularly if the person can’t stop shopping.

The shopaholic frequently spends beyond his or her means. This means they may sacrifice money for food, rent, utilities, or simply be unable to pay rising credit card balances. Once a shopaholic spends beyond limits, the disease, like an addiction to drugs can worsen. The shopaholic may indulge in compulsive theft, or may steal money from others in order to continue shopping.

What began as joy at finding a few good bargains can end in financial ruin, and even criminal prosecution. However, there is help to end such compulsions, which are just as likely to occur in men and women. Needing shopping, just like needing any other activity or drug to regulate mood suggests that mood is already in chemical imbalance.

Just like any other addict, the shopaholic must want to quit. Very little can be accomplished until there is a sincere desire to end the behavior. For some this only occurs when they hit rock bottom. Hopefully, recognizing the signs early can help one curb the behavior in its infancy, so it does not become an addictive behavior that controls one’s life.

~Liquid Leggings
These fancy leggings have become the new comfort jeans. Coming in an assortment of colors, liquid leggings are very popular amongst young Hollywood. Like Christina, Meagan and Rihanna, these tight pants can provide comfort and sex appeal when paired with stilettos.

Blackberry
It’s a computer, planner, and phone all in one. The Blackberry PDA is just as useful for A-list stars – Mariah Carey, Pharrell and Garcelle Beauvais – as it is for “the average” phoner. With e-mail, friends, and the web right at your finger tips, this phone has become one of the hottest fashion accessories.

Hair Cut
Trend alert: Short hair is hot. Short and sweet do's, angular bobs and adorable pixie cuts are bursting on the scenes of Hollywood stars, like Toccara and Tia Mowry. Short styles are great for keeping up your beauty with low maintenance and best for those hot summer days.

~Bright Nails

Kelis, Angela Simmons and Rihanna are hot on the nail trend trail. Bright neon nails are a popular choice for the summer season. From neon green to turquoise blue, the assortment of colors for your nails is endless



Glasses
Erykah, Kanye and Lloyd may look goofy, but the new trend in eyewear is clear and kooky. Join the crew and create your own funky look by removing the lenses out of an old pair of black shades or glasses.

Fashion › Re: Why Is Society So Obsessed With Looks? by mohawkchic(f): 9:59pm On Jul 11, 2009
~Hang on a Minute,wasnt it the same "Society" that placed emphasis on "Looks" and became obsessed w/ the  Importance of "Outer Beauty" rather than "Inner Beauty" !!. . . Made Judgements or Treat the Not-So-Pretty differently?

~So Some succum to the pressures. . .seeking Perfection at any given moment,wudnt blink to spend as much as they can to achieve "The Perfect" look. . i dont blame them. . Damn if you do,Damn if you dont!!


~Yeah some folks will say "I Care More About Inner Beauty Than Outer Beauty Yadi Yada Ya" But who are we fooling really? Looks Does Really Matter And "Society" favours Attractiveness!


~Anywho,for me the Need To look good hasnt taken on A Life On Its Own I love to look good! Sue Me! grin


~Me think there's enuff room for The Natural Beauties ~Not Obsessed And The Obsessed to all  roam about  in "Society"!



~Here are some Factors i think contribute to why Folks cud be obsessed w/ looks,depending on the Individual/State of Mental Mind Or the suitation they fond themselves in. . .needless to say each Individual differs soOooo. . . .


~Emotioonal Insecurities :Low Self-Esteem ~Scared To Be Perceived Otherwise
~Self-Interest:Self-Centered: Births Obsession!
~Seeking Perfection/Acceptance In A Professional/Personal Capicity :Looks/Interaction/Making An Impression
~Vanity: One Of The Cardinal Sins Of Man
~Trying To Hard To Fit IN:Seeeking Approval from M8's/Family/Spouse/BF/GF/Strangers
~BDD Sufferers:Body Dysmorphic Disorder believe that they are so unattractive and unacceptable to others that they even avoid social interaction for fear of being ridiculed: The BDD sufferer will undergo repeated surgery. Many sufferers may have over 50 procedures done and still feel that they are inherently ugly and unacceptable, both to themselves and others.

What Colour Shoes Should I Wear With A White Dress?
Ideally not white as this is rather overkill - white dresses ideally suit sandals or super high heels. Match your dress to shoe colours such as brown, croc patterns, silver, bronze or metallic.



How To Choose The Right Skinny Jeans For You
Look for dark denim washes in indigo, navy, blacks and dark greys over lighter shades, as these are the colours which will slim down legs the most.
There is no point buying a pair of skinny jeans if you find it impossible to bend or sit down in them - they do come in different widths of "skinny" and can vary from the super skinny of around 25cm hem width to a slightly more forgiving 35cm.
