English Channel - Business Women's Guide to Fashion Tuesday, November 30, 2010

European style is always fast forward, innovative, modern, elegant and classy. Especially in regards to British fashion houses and famous designers that showcase artful clothes for couture or ready to wear ensembles. British women are known for the elevated taste in fashion and style. They tend to lean more towards the conservative, classic (and sometimes modern), fresh, clean and elegant approach to dressing. You can expect to see British business women in tailored clothes with accessories that accent their outfits rather than dominate it. Now women from around the world can mirror their British counterparts without having to cross over the pond!

Listed below are tips that stylish, professional women can instantly implement into their wardrobe and channel their British style diva.

In the Trenches

Trench coats are a staple to any outerwear collection. They are versatile, classic and stylish for any outfit for any profession. Students, business women, lawyers, doctors, artists etc. can wear trench coats that blend into their style profiles. Trench coats are no longer being made in the classic khaki colors as from the days of old. Many clothing designers and retail companies are adding a punch of color to this classic piece with blacks, bright primary colors and even patterned prints. The shape of trench coats are also evolving. Women can purchase this outerwear in a cropped version, or in three-quarter length sleeves. Either way, trench coats are definitely here to stay.

Queen of Diamonds

Argyles are no longer reserved for your grand uncle or the finest golfers on the greens. They are being incorporated into almost every aspect of women's clothes and accessories. Besides the classic argyle vest, this fun pattern is being used for skirts, dresses, sweaters, socks, pins and handbags. Argyles also look dynamic with different textures such as silk, cotton, wool and velvet. It is usually worn in the day but can easily transition into the night with pearl accessories and sparkling accents. Argyles can also be paired perfectly with different patterns such as plaids, tweeds, pin stripes and even polka dots. The sky is the limit to the combination that can be created.

What Makes A Handbag Unusual? Friday, November 26, 2010

Handbag, purse, satchel, bag, tote, sack . . . all are names for a woman's (and some men's) most important accessory. The one thing least likely to be forgotten or left behind. The one thing you need to carry your "stuff!" They come in all sizes and shapes, can be made of almost anything you can think of, from paper to straw to canvas to plastic, from metal to mesh to cloth, from calfskin to lambskin to crocodile and ostrich. It's still a bag and you need one (maybe many more than one!) So what makes a bag an Unusual Handbag?

Quality, style, craftsmanship, material and a certain cache: authentic designer handbags. These bags can range in price from a few hundred dollars to many thousands of dollars. Although there are new designers all the time, the established names are legendary: Gucci, Prada, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Cchanel, Balenciaga, Tods, Burberry, Dior, YSL, and the less well known and almost cultish Chloe, Ghurka, Bottega Veneta, and Miu Miu. Leathers either amazingly soft and supple or carefully textured to withstand the weather; meticulously crafted signature fabrics; rare and costly skins like ostrich, crocodile, python and other snakes; gold, silver, and titanium mesh; careful attention to details like stitching, hardware; sleeper bags that can be almost as coveted as the bags themselves; and, of course, the all-important logo, either subtly hidden somewhere or boldly emblazoned for the world to see. Carefully planned for and purchased, and passed from mother to daughter, or collected and hoarded by the wealthy and the celebrated. THESE are Unusual Handbags.

With all this going on, there are always those who would cheat and copy: the fakes (mostly from China but not exclusively.) Whether called "replicas" or "imitations" or "inspired-by," the fact is they aren't the real thing: they aren't made the same, they don't feel the same, they don't wear the same. They are fakes, and making them and selling them is illegal. Some people don't care and buy them knowingly. To each his own. But, sadly, there are many who pay good money only to find out later that they bought a fake. Sad. Don't be mislead.

It IS possible to find, admire, and buy AUTHENTIC designer handbags, even on the internet, and sometimes at a discount. Just be realistic: If a website is offering a new $2,000 Gucci handbag for less than $300 . . . it can't be real. Some brands just are not available except at company-owned boutiques and high-end department stores (Louis Vuitton is a great example.)

Do You Need Designer Jeans to Get the Best Fit For Your Curvy Body Type? Tuesday, November 23, 2010

Many curvy girls are quick to issue an emphatic "No!" to the question of whether designer jeans better fit voluptuous figures. There are two common mistakes that are made by women when shopping for jeans. The first mistake is to get starry-eyed by glossy photoshopped pictures of their favorite celebrities in designer jeans. Before you head out to your local department store and try on dozens of expensive jeans, ask yourself a few questions:

Do those to-die-for jeans match my body type?

Put down the People magazine for just one moment. While we can certainly agree that our favorite celebrities are usually impeccably styled and admire their passion for great fashion on and off of the Red Carpet, you need to take a realistic inventory of whether their choice in fashion suits you. Does your body resemble the classic hourglass figure or are you pear-shaped (bottom-heavy)? If so, then those J Brand Jeans you've been eying that look great on a gaunt celebrity may not have enough give-and-pull that you need around the hips and thighs.

Does wearing expensive designer jeans equal better fit?

Of course, the huge PR and marketing machines that support the billion dollar fashion industry will tell you an unequivocal "Yes!" But that's because they want to make themselves $200+ dollars richer for each pair of jeans sold. Don't fall for the hype. Let's be real... Much like the rest of the designer fashion industry, these jeans are not created for the average girl in mind. They're not even created to fit a wide range of body types. Because of this, several smaller brands have infiltrated into the marketplace that cater specifically to the needs of curvy women - and they are reaping the rewards to the tune of amazing sales and product loyalty.

One brand of jeans designed for curvy women is PZI Jeans. You may be familiar (unfortunately) with jeans that fit in the hips and thighs, but are literally swimming around your waist. These jeans are designed instead with a tapered waist to fit comfortably around the waist, thighs, and butt - without the dreaded gap in the back! These jeans come in a wide range of sizes - from 4 to 18 - and in various lengths to fit any height from petite to tall.

According to recent surveys, the majority of women struggle with finding jeans that fit and flatter. You don't have to be one of them! Please visit Jeans for Curvy Women for your guide to finding your best-fitting jeans for curvy figures!

Diagnosing and Changing Dead Car Batteries Wednesday, November 3, 2010

If your car battery is not working, you should not be in a rush to change it. You should first troubleshoot because the problem could be current leakage, insufficient fluid, or other problems that can be fixed. You do not need to take your car to an auto mechanic if you are having car battery problems. Doing the troubleshooting and the changing yourself will save you money. Primarily, you should make sure it is the battery that has problems and you are not having other problems such as lack of gasoline. To do this, turn the ignition - you should only get a small click of the starter cylinoid engaging when you do this.

To troubleshoot, open the hood of your car and look at the connections to the positive and the negative terminals. If they are dirty, clean them since this means the problem might be that the circuit is not being completed. You should also clean the surface of the battery since the problem might be current leakage. You should clean the battery terminals because a build-up of a white powder between the terminal and the cable will prevent current flow to the starter. The cleaning should be done with a wet rag and baking soda and if you should use sandpaper if the terminals are corroded. Check whether the problem is a shorted positive terminal. The positive terminal should never be connected to any part of the car.

Before condemning your battery, you should try to recharge it. The car should be able to recharge the battery, but if this is not happening, buy or borrow a battery charger. The charger has a red and a black cable. Connect the red cable to the positive terminal and the black cable to the negative terminal. Charge until the indicator changes to green if the charger has an indicator. If it does not, disconnect the charger and use a voltmeter to check the voltage. From your user's manual, you will be able to tell when the battery is fully charged. You should be careful when checking the voltage while the car is running. This is because some parts move so fast that you may think they are stationary. Note that although you cannot get a shock from the battery, the current can be dangerous to the human heart and the nervous system.

If the battery is below 11 volts, this is an indication that it needs to be replaced. To replace the battery, you should know the correct procedures and you should know all the components and where they go. The batteries of most modern cars are usually hidden inside plastic boxes in one of the front corners of the engine compartment. To remove the battery, make sure the car engine is turned off to prevent the risk of accidents. Remove the cables connecting the battery to the starter - they are usually fastened using bolts. Remove the battery and drain the acid inside. Many stores take used batteries for recycling, but note you may have to pay for this. To replace the battery, make sure the car engine is turned off. Do not cross the terminals as this will damage the battery - there is an indication of the positive and the negative terminal on the body of the battery. Fill the battery with the acid and you will be good to go.
