Look Sexy Yet Elegant

There is that one guy you have laid your eyes on some time ago. Tall, dark, handsome man, that works in the same building as you, but besides occasional encounters in an elevator, nothing has ever happened, until just a few days ago, when he finally approached you and asked you out. You were ecstatic until Saturday night, when you realized that you do not know what you should wear. Even though they say differently, men do notice what we have put on ourselves, and if this date is really important to you, then you should think more than twice about what you are going to wear.

The combinations are endless: a dress or a two piece: skirt or pants, shirt or sweater, on heals or flats. After only a few minutes you might feel like you are on a verge of a breakdown because Sophie’s choice just became yours. The important thing is that you look classy, but at the same time reveal something to trigger the imagination. If you are puzzled by this combination, we have a few advices you could follow, and sweep him of his feet.
Balance It Up
Your grandmother has probably thought you something when you first started going out, but just in case you missed it, let me say that nobody will buy the cow if he can get the milk for free. It is an age-old inappropriate saying that has to be your dating mantra. What it basically means is that you should never reveal too much. A balance needs to be made between what is covered and what is left to be seen. So if your legs are showing, avoid cleavage. On the other hand, if you are wearing pants, you are allowed to show a little bit of skin on your upper part. So decide which part of you will be more conservative, and which one you wish to present as one of your stronger attributes.

Keep It Simple
Women make the biggest fashion mistakes because they watch too many runway shows and read too many magazines where they see the most unusual combinations, and then try to copy them in real life. But the fact is that those are designed specifically for photo-shooting sessions, and are not appropriate for everyday situations. So keep it simple and remember that LBD is your best friend. Every girl needs to own a few going out dresses for the Saturday night date, and one of them should be the little black one, known to be perfect for every occasion.

No Fear
Simple black dress is always the safest choice, as usually you cannot go wrong with it, but do not be afraid to put a bit of color on yourself. If you choose to wear a dress, make a statement with its color. Darker ones like olive green, blue or maroon are all elegant and perfect for the evening wear, but if you feel confident, transform yourself into lady in red. She is self-assured, beautiful and amazing, and she looks as if the world is her oyster. If on the other hand you wear a two piece suit, mix and match, but be careful when combining colors. Just to be sure that you do not mess things up, always choose one neutral color with another bright one. This way, you will still attract attention in the room, but the right kind of one.

Last thing you need to have in mind is that it is not just about your looks. You need to relax, have fun, and be yourself. Yes, it does sound like a cliché, but it is the most important thing, as love at first sight is nice, but it will not last long if he does not meet the true you.

Pore shrinking mask recipes from home

A face with large open pores when seen from close quarters doesn’t look so good. While it’s quite common for oily skins to have a tendency towards open pores, an attack of pimples also leaves ugly scars and open pores behind. Even though the scars may fade away after some time, open pores appear to be more obstinate and hardly show any signs of shrinking. Age also takes its toll by giving an uneven/pigmented tone to the skin and making the open pores more prominent. Heredity could also be a contributing factor in determining your pore size. It’s not easy to get rid of these pores or shrink them completely or permanently using serums, lotions or face packs.
