My obsession with Vintage Necklaces


There's only one word that accurately describes how I we feel about the Vintage Necklaces Trend: OBSESSED!  I can’t tell you how much I love vintage pieces from outfits to jewelry even interior decor, but for now I’m currently into vintage necklaces especially chunky ones made out of brass, copper or hard silver. Necklaces create a sense of elegance, security and strong beauty. Vintage necklaces give you that sense of royalty and unmatched exquisiteness.

I always love visiting flea markets, garage sales or even boot sales where people are discarding their old stuff. That is where you can get the best jewelry that is vintage and quite unique. The best part about Vintage Necklaces is that they are one of a kind. You can hardly find pieces that look alike or made with the same design. The chunky one especially have a unique quality in them that makes you feel and look like you have stepped out of a couture magazine of old Hollywood glam. To get that exquisite look and show off your Vintage Necklace, wear with a V-Neck outfit, round or plunging outfit that will show it off in a perfect way. Vintage Necklaces look perfect with flowing evening gowns but can also be worn with for instance a Little Black Dress. The Vintage Necklace can be paired with skinny jeans, a fitted t-shirt and boyfriend blazer for that casual yet sophisticated look.

More people are becoming interested in decorating their homes so that it has a sense of warmth and is attractive. Interior decorating does not necessarily need one to have an education background in interior design. On just needs a creative mind and explore whatever designs makes them happy. A person needs to know the kinds of tiles available in the market. They also come in different colors and even textures.
Every house has a specific design that has been incorporated into it. As for tiles they come in different designs for different rooms. 

There are tiles that are meant for the bathroom which can be as colorful as the house owner wants. There are tiles for the kitchen which are mostly in one color or design. For the kitchen you can also have two colors so that the room does not look so busy. Then there are tiles for other rooms like the living or dining room. Here you can choose to mix and match the patterns and even colors.

Onyx rings for the stylish man


Jewelry has always been a preserve of women as they are the ones who love to adorn themselves to keep on trend with fashion that keeps evolving. Most men only know that rings are meant for a purpose. There are several situations where men would consider wearing rings. Most men would only be spotted wearing a wedding ring as a sign of their commitment to their wife. The other occasions that a man would wear a ring is if they are musicians especially rock stars or even the hip hop artists in their videos and lifestyles. Now fashion has ensured that jewelry especially rings for men are accepted and can be worn even by the most conservative man. Though their rings are not usually delicately designed, men have found rings that they can wear which shows off their masculinity.

Rings that are designed with the man in mind are the onyx rings. They are huge rings cut from a gemstone that is either yellow or gold. These rings come in various designs that can be custom made to suit the taste of the buyer. Onyx rings are jewelry that are chunky and have a glossy black finish. The onyx is a stone that is natural and common. It occurs naturally from volcanic stone and has a black color that is deeply rich. The onyx is cut and made into exquisite and beautiful rings for men.

Causes of Dark Under Eyes Circles


Dark under eyes circles are a realistic problem especially for women. Being the fashion conscious creatures that they are having dark circles is tantamount to committing a fashion crime whose sentence is being called a fashion failure or something worse. This is because in this time and age we are bombarded by billboards dictating the rules of what is in and out in the fashion world.

Looks and appearance have never been placed with such importance as now as people are aware about the latest trends in fashion having dark under eyes circles has become a major problem faced by people of all age groups, race, nationality and even gender.The most commonly known cause for dark under eyes circles is lack of sleep which is as a result you wake up exhausted which aggravates the skin causing discolorations like dark circles.

A cause that is not ordinarily known is Heredity.  One can be able to see the dark circles under the eyes because they are just blood vessels visible through the skin and like varicose veins they are inherited trait. Most women would rather not think of dark eye circles as an inherited trait as they would now start comparing themselves to their mothers to see if they are likely to have continuous occurrences of having dark eyes.

The amazing goodness of yogurt


As well as being an excellent source of calcium, protein, riboflavin, phosphorous and vitamin B12, yogurt promotes the growth of healthy bacteria in our guts.
These bacteria have a variety of important jobs, from helping to digest food to defending us against the unfriendly bacteria that cause infection and tummy upsets (including the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, the bug now recognized as a common underlying factor in digestive conditions such as ulcers and stomach cancer.)

Do all yogurts contain “good” bacteria?
While all yogurts starts off with it, these bacteria do not live forever. Depending on how the yogurt is processed, stored and when it is eaten, you may get less beneficial bacteria than you think. So buy the “live” kind, keep it in the fridge and, once opened, eat within a few days.

Beyonce New Fragrance 'Rise'

Beyonce launched her new perfume Rise in February of 2014. The concept that lies behind the creation of this fragrance was inspired by Beyonce’s on-stage persona, as well as by “female empowerment and finding the inner strength that makes women so beautiful" (wwd). The fragrance is supposedly more intimate and more natural than the previous ones, inspired by the works of singer's favorite poet Maya Angelou.

The composition is announced as intoxicating, addictive and luminous floral created by Loc Dong. Its opening notes include apricot, Italian bergamot and iced basil sorbet. The main note of the perfume is, of course, orchid and this time it is an orchid called "Golden Symphony", which is mixed with freesia and Sambac jasmine flowers and placed at the base of the autumn woods, cashmere, musk and vetiver.

The fragrance is available as 15, 30 and 50 ml Eau de Parfum with an accompanying collection for body care.

Jared Leto for Evening Standard Deluxe March 2014

On whether he cares much about Hollywood accolades: ‘I don’t. But I would never say, “I don’t give a sh*t about the Oscars,” because it’s not the whole truth. It’s not about the shiny, naked golden man, or the pat on the back, it’s about being able to stand on a world stage for two minutes in front of a billion people and say something that is meaningful, important to you.’

On losing a lot of weight for Dallas Buyers Club: ‘I have very strong self-control. There is something very seductive about it,’ he admits when we discuss his crash, three-stone weight loss for Rayon, during which the slight actor virtually stopped eating. (He used to go to the supermarket just to stare at the food.) ‘I got to understand the mentality of an eating disorder. There are the highs of losing more weight; there’s a rush of endorphins associated with that control. When you have made a severe commitment to losing weight, there is a lot of shame and guilt around eating again. I really suffered that, it’s not a nice feeling...’ But Leto found solace in self-exploration. ‘The process can be very monk-like — there is a history of people who have fasted to achieve enlightenment. There is something in that, getting to know who you are. It changed me.’
