Fashion Combos That Can't Go Wrong.

Fashion combos that can never fail involves totally amazing style hack of looking stylish even when you have no idea what to wear.

There must have been periods when you look at your wardrobe with disgust and just thought "You have absolutely nothing to wear" Well don't lose hope, there's a fashion gold in that dark cave you call your wardrobe and it's easier to find than you might think.

1. Black + White

You can't go wrong with pure black and white. You could get dressed drunk and blind while falling down the stairs, and if everything you throw on on the waywas black and/or white, 99 times out of a hundred you would still look cool, chic and stylish.

2. Big Sweater + Small Skirt

Style is all about contrast and balance -the looseness of the top with the tightness of the skirt, the covered-up top with the skin-baring bottom. If the sweater reaches below your crotch give it a little front tuck to keep look from getting boxy, and when it gets really cold out, add tights in a color that contrasts the skirt to keep your legs looking as long as possible.

3. Silk Blouse + Slim-fit Pant

Solid or printed, real silk, cotton or polyester. There's probably a simple button down blouse somewhere in your wardrobe waiting to be thrown on. Tuck the front in, back and sides out. Secret is all in the tuck. Wear it with a sleek pair of fitter pants and or jeans even shorts with or without blazers. With high heels, sneaker or slides you cant go wrong.

There you go! stay fashionable :)

QUESTIONS FOR EACH DAY

We live in a state of constant change, a process which is always happening whether we are paying attention or not. Those who ignore or cannot see it within themselves witness it in other people around them.

As life is about recalibrating, how about you continually ask yourself:
"What do I have to do to get where I need to be?"
"How do I create the life I want?"

Here is a short answer: Making ourselves over consistently and daily in order to progress as we are not meant to stagnate.

That way we are sure of change, one's goal should be how to figure out using change certainty to one's advantage. To renew, to redevelop, to rejuvenate, to refashion and transform one's day-to-day being.

Taking care of one's self, feeding one's self with nutritious food, loving thoughts and love itself. Giving one's self the gift of stillness at least few minutes daily, surrounding one's self with people who bring light and to banish all forms of  negative energy. These are the best way for sure to stay in steady makeover mode.

In time one will discover that the value you give yourself is the value the world reflects back to you. Care about yourself enough to acknowledge and embrace change, you will be on the path that will lead you home to happiness.

Carry on smiling and the world will smile with you.

HOMEMADE BEAUTY TREAT

Beauty is the quality in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure  or deep satisfaction to the mind hence the need to stay beautiful.

This edition of homemade beauty treats will involve the use of olive oil.

There are many ways to stay beautiful. Here are two (2) of my best use of Olive oil

1. Eye Makeup Remover: Dab a few drop of Olive oil onto a cotton ball,and then swipe it over your eyes to gently wipe off your makeup.

Merit: It serves as a great mosturizer, so no need to rinse it off.

This method saves me lot of stress after a long day.

2. Deep Conditoner: Massage one teaspoon of extra-virgin olive oil into dry, clean hair (pay attention to the ends). Then wrap your hair in a warm damp towel and let the oil absorb into your strands for up to 20 minutes before rinsing it out with warm water.

This method helps keep my hair healthy. This will help if your hair looks thirsty.

Stay beautiful;)

QUESTIONS YOU NEED TO ASK YOURSELF BEFORE DELVING INTO TRENDS.

It's not sinful to follow trends but one needs to know what suits and fits one's individuality.

Trends are to be mixed and balanced with personal taste and individuality.

Answers to these questions helps one to be able to figure how best to fit in into what everyone likes hence the ability to infuse one's personal flavor into the trend.

Question 1

Do I truly like this trend?

This is to checkmate one's interest since one seeing lots of the same style around could generate a sense of adventure. Therefore the need to be sure of what one is getting into.

Question 2

Am I doing it "just because"?

This is to help checkmate one's  self-esteem as one  do not need to take part in a trend "just because" friends are rocking the trend or because that trend is used as an identification for classy ladies/gents.

Question 3 

Should I follow this considering that it's in complete contrast to who I am?

This is to help put one's self respect and personality in check as one needs to not lose his/her sense of individuality.

Question 4

Can I really afford it?

Don't go running into debts, it's self-destructive .

These are questions that would or should with every trend arrive with the person who is discerning. If you are not discerning, these questions means nothing to you.
