Dress To Impress Staying Sexy Past Forty

Tracy | October 28, 2020October 3, 2021

With all the models you see in lingerie adverts being slim twenty-somethings (if that!), it’s easy to assume that sexy underwear is the reserve of the youthful, just like Ugg boots and jeggings are.

Do you buy frumpy, boring underwear because you’re worried about how the shop assistant would look at you buying luxury lingerie in middle age? Do you avoid wearing anything lacy or sheer in case you end up with the dreaded ‘mutton dressed as lamb’ look?

Well, I’m here to tell you that gorgeous, beautiful lingerie is acceptable at any age! It doesn’t matter if you’re 18 or 80, you have the right to look and feel beautiful in your smalls.

On the other hand, you do need to choose your styles wisely – our bodies will inevitably change as we get older and what suited you in your twenties is unlikely to be what suits you now.

You’ll need support in different areas and maybe that flat stomach that was once your best asset is no longer quite so washboard-tight after a few children, but then again perhaps all those children and age-related weight gain have given you a fantastic cleavage you would have killed for a few decades ago!

Looking sexy past forty is all about combining what’s pretty with what’s practical. Here are my top tips to getting the look spot on…

1. Remember Shapewear Has Evolved!

The shapewear your mum or gran might have worn was undoubtedly characterised by that frumpy, all-nude toned look that probably didn’t even do much shaping either!

Thanks to some massive innovations in fabric in recent years however, shapewear today has come leaps and bounds and many pieces could even be classed as luxury lingerie.

You can now buy sculpting lingerie that flattens the wobbly bits and emphasises the other bits, and all in lace, sheer mesh or a lovely printed fabric!

In fact, shop around and find some beautiful-looking shapewear and your partner probably won’t even realise it’s there to do a job and not just to look hot!

2. Decide What Your Best Asset Is

Everyone has something that’s worth showing off, it just might not be the same thing today as it was some years ago. Take a good look in the mirror and decide what bits you like, and which ones you’d rather cover up.

A wobbly stomach can be hidden with a floaty babydoll or a sexy basque, or if yours is still nice and flat then stick to a bra and knickers and show it off!

If you don’t like your hips, look for long, French-style knickers that are both luxurious and flattering, or if you’ve got killer pins then high-leg knickers go down a treat.

Make the most of your chest with a bra that combines support and great fit with a great style – if you love lace for example but are a DD+, it may be that you need to choose a padded bra that’s overlaid with lace, rather than a sheer lace one.

3. Choose Luxury Fabrics

To keep the look classy, it’s better to splash out on one high-quality set made from a luxury fabric, than to buy a few cheaper sets. Fabrics such as silk, linen and Guipure lace add elegance and sophistication, perfect for the over forties!

Even your sleepwear looks better in a luxury fabric so choose silk pyjamas and snooze away in glamorous style!

4. Don’t Shy Away From Colour

It’s a mistake to believe that bold, beautiful colour is only for your youth – in fact, few things are more ageing than dull lingerie!

Whilst black looks sexy at any age, and white can set off a tan to perfection, if your entire lingerie drawer is a mixture of black, white, grey and nude then it’s time to inject a bit of colour back into it!

Whilst your days of neon pinks and greens may be behind you, some colours are both bold and sophisticated – lipstick red is sexy at any age, or you can opt for a deeper, richer, wine-stain red.

If you’re still unsure about colour, start with navy blue – it’s close to black, but not quite so somber. Pale pink is a great alternative to white and nude too.

I hope you’ve found these tips enlightening! Do you have any of your own to add?

Different Kinds Of Hair Extensions

Tracy | October 28, 2020October 3, 2021

If you’re considering investing in some hair extensions you might think it’s a straight forward choice but there are actually loads to choose from. The different options are:

Clip in hair extensions

They are easy to use and are not permanent; this is the cheapest way to have longer hair. Once you have bought them, as long as you look after them, they could last you years. You can put them in and take them out as you please. The hair is sewn onto a clip which can then be clipped onto your hair and they last from around six months to two years depending on how often you use them.

Brazilian Hair Extensions

The hair of a Brazilian is supposed to be the most sought after hair in the world. It is very versatile and is very good quality but is one of the most expensive of the real human hair extensions. These hair extensions can be purchased straight or curly and they’re ideal for colouring. Brazilian hair extensions are a popular choice with celebrities.

Synthetic hair

These are the choice if you’re on a budget. They’re cheap as they are not real hair but due to this they don’t look as stylish as other options and they don’t last as long. However, these are extremely popular due to the price.

Real Human Hair

These are the most popular type of hair extensions on the market. There are plenty of different options, from style through to colour. You can also style these extensions as you would your normal hair – something you can’t do with synthetic extensions. If they are carefully looked after they can also last a lot longer than synthetic hair extensions. However, they are much more expensive.

Sew in hair extensions

It is exactly what is says above, the hair salon sew the extensions onto your real hair, you cannot remove them yourself and if you wish to have them removed must have it done professionally at a salon. They don’t take a lot to maintain and you can dye or style them however you wish.

Glued / Fusion hair extensions

A group of hair is glued into your current hair at the root using strong glue. These extensions can last up to several months. They are easy to remove these as all you need to do is get a cotton wool pad soaked in a formula – such as nail varnish remover – and wrap the pad around the glue and it should come apart easily; this means that there is no additional cost of having them removed at a hair salon – although going to the salon maybe an easier option.

Create A Stylish Sensible Thanksgiving Outfit For Under 100

Tracy | October 28, 2020October 3, 2021

Can you believe Thanksgiving is just around the corner? It’s just a few weeks away and it’s always hard to figure out what to wear. Let’s be honest, on Thanksgiving not only are you thankful for friends and family, but you’re also thankful for the food, right?! Well, at least I am!

Knowing what to wear on Thanksgiving is quite challenging at times. You want to look nice, but if we’re being honest, you can’t wear any tight clothing because you better believe you are going to get full. The amazing thing about fashion is that you can find a stylish outfit that still gives your tummy room to breathe. That’s why I’m extremely thankful for items such as tunics and leggings. They give you extra room while still allowing you to dress up and look nice for a holiday event.

So I decided to put together an outfit that I would consider wearing on Thanksgiving that’s also affordable. And you can snag this entire outfit on JoeShopping for under $100! I hope this inspires you and makes you think about what you would like to wear for the holidays. Personally I think jeans are nice, but they aren’t as stretchy as leggings. It’s no fun secretly unbuttoning that top button under your shirt because you can’t breathe! Come on admit it, I’m sure we’ve all done it a time or two.

So what do you think of this outfit for the holidays?

Gap Petit Women’s Stretch Knit Leggings – $19.95

Leggings go with virtually anything and they keep your legs nice and warm during the winter months. For $19.95 you can find a pair of leggings from Gap that are soft and warm. Layer these supersoft stretch leggings under all the season’s hottest dresses and skirts. If you want to learn about the coupons that are available for the Gap, head on over to the Gap coupons page.

One World Top, Kimono Sleeve Beaded Printed Tunic – $24.74

For a tunic top that has a unique and edgy appeal, wear a One World top. I love One World because they make quality tops out of durable material. Plus their patterns are always so much fun! This particular top shines with tie-dye influences, a variety of different patterns combined, and beads to boot! Paired with a pair of black leggings (like the ones above), I think you’d have a stylish outfit made.

Chinese Laundry Shoes, Desta Flats for Women – $29.50

I love flats because they are super comfy for your feet. If you are a girl that prefers to wear heels for a holiday get together, that’s great, but isn’t it a pain unbuckling them or putting them back on after the event when you’re tired and full? That’s why I prefer flats. They are soft, comfy, and depending on the brand that you select, finding a pair that won’t give you blisters is important. Chinese Laundry has excellent products and flats that won’t give you blisters. Plus they’re super-cute!

Chunky Black Knobby Cable Knit Hat and Scarf Set – $22.99

Why not add some warmth to this Thanksgiving outfit with a soft and fluffy scarf? Any scarf that is knitted or crocheted is gorgeous and unique. This particular scarf seems to have the perfect combination of glitz and glimmer. Plus a hat and a scarf come together in this shopping package! Paired with your leggings and One World top, I think you’d look adorable!

Goldtone Owl & Clock Pendant Necklace with CZ’s – $18.95

I happen to love the adorable owl trend that’s going on. I think that this necklace is especially clever because it has a clock on the owl’s tummy! Instead of wondering what time it is because you never wear a watch, wear an owl who would be happy to hoot you the time! Just don’t keep track of the time you spent eating.

So check out your grand total = $96.18

Not bad for a Thanksgiving and late-fall outfit, huh?! I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving…are you? Now all I need to do is buy a stretchy and stylish outfit like this one!

Are Supplements Effective For Growing Hair

Tracy | October 22, 2020October 3, 2021

You’ve used the most expensive hair growth shampoos, applied various serums and potions, massaged your scalp whenever you can, and still you’re struggling with growing your hair. Could it be time to start taking supplements? And while some swear by biotin, silica, folic acid and other hair vitamins, how sure are you that these are safe to take and effective to boot? Let’s take a look at some common supplements believed to enhance or speed up hair growth and see if these are well worth the hype.

Biotin

Probably the most popular among the known hair vitamins, biotin (vitamin H or vitamin B7) is believed to maximize hair growth since it plays a key role in producing amino acids. Remember that hair is made up of keratin, a protein, which in turn is composed of amino acids. Taking biotin therefore could help hair grow longer, faster, and stronger but of course, you need to understand that what you could get in a pill, you could also get in food form. Consider consuming more of egg yolks, fish, soybeans, avocado, raspberries, and whole-wheat bread to get your required dietary allowance of biotin.

Silica

A mineral that supports bone and tissue health, silica is also said to promote hair growth by maintaining collagen. According to experts, when the levels of silica in the body decreases, dull hair results, as well as brittle nails, wrinkly skin, and weak bones. There’s only one caveat to taking silica and that is it can lead to kidney damage when consumed in excess. It is also contraindicated in pregnant women and those who are currently breastfeeding.

Folic Acid

As it turns out, folic acid or folate isn’t just for women who want to get pregnant or are already expecting. Folic acid has also been shown to hasten hair growth, most likely because it can help the body synthesize, break down, and utilize proteins. Again, it should be clear that you can also get folic acid from your diet. Just make sure you incorporate foods rich in folic acid including dark green, leafy vegetables, grain products, citrus fruits and juices, dried beans, and so on.

Fish Oil

When you say fish oil, the most common association will always be with omega-3 fatty acids. Some take fish oil capsules for its cardiovascular benefits but what you may not know is that these supplements can also promote thick, healthy hair growth. Apparently, by increasing circulation, the scalp receives more nourishment (oxygenated blood), and this in turn, helps decrease hair shedding and even dandruff.

Zinc

Did you know that stress can contribute to hair loss? In fact, when you subject your body to a high level of stress, your follicles could go into a resting phase, shrinking until the hairs fall out. Now the way zinc combats this possible shedding is by boosting the immune system. Zinc also helps preserve the structure of cell membranes and protein and even influence hormone actions which have also been linked to hair growth and quality.

Smart Phone Accessories Worth Hooking Up

Tracy | October 10, 2020October 3, 2021

I recently got a new smart phone that I’m crazy about (an Android HTC Incredible 4G LTE) but it is so hard to find phone accessories (i.e. creative phone cases) for it! However, I’m content with the few cases that I found on Amazon simply because I love the cell phone so much.

My cases are in two of my favorite colors: blue and pink sparkles. Oh, what I wouldn’t give for a fun chevron case with the initials of my name on it! I won’t give up my search.

With today’s modern designs you have endless possibilities when it comes to accessories (for most phone designs). There are cases, phone charms, fun earphone buds, car mounts, and even more accessories to utilize and discover. Since I’m limited with only a few cases for my phone (even though there are many other accessories), I thought I would dream with you via this post and show you some of the awesome accessories that you can use with and on your phone!

Also, in case you were wondering, the reason why Verizon and Droid phones more specifically don’t have a lot of phone cases is because there are SO many phones available, as opposed to an iPhone which is universal and the cell phone design stays the same. iPhone was smart if you ask me, but I still prefer my Droid!

Personalized Phone Cases -Â

I love Etsy because they offer a ton of fun cases for your phone! One of my favorite covers is the Chevron Custom Design Cover by Swanky Press. It’s colorful, trendy, and of course it has the option to have an initial. Love it.Â

If you’re a dog lover other personalized cell cases include a Modern Dots Dog Silhouette iPhone Case (some Android versions too) and this Etsy seller has a lot more awesome designs as well. I absolutely adore the fun colors that she incorporates into the design as well as the adorable dog silhouettes that she creatively uses as well.

If you’re looking for more of a child friendly phone cover there are fun covers like the Disney Stitch caseÂ that I came across on Amazon. It’s definitely cute with his ears sticking out and the fun 3D like design. I’m sure there are many other Disney cases as well if you explore enough and find the type of case you’re looking for.

Skullcandy Earphones

Moving on to earphones, Skullcandy happens to be my favorite brand name for earbuds that look stylish and are very functional as well. They come in many colors, feel comfortable in your ears, and make it easy for you to watch a Netflix movie late at night when your spouse and kids are sleeping but you want to stay up and watch a film instead! I personally want the Ink’d 2 Pink/Black ear phones because they are so stylish!

Cases to Put Your Smart Phone In

In order to keep your smart phone in great condition, there are also durable and fashionable cases to put your cell phone in when you’re on the go. I admit I don’t have one of these for my new cell phone yet, but IÂ definitelyÂ want one! They provide just an added layer of protection to your cell when it is in a purse that gets bumped around a lot. Plus, I have to admit it’s yet another fun accessory to own that will add the right amount of pizzazz to your phone as well.

Check out this Smart phone case on Etsy by Honeycrush. It’s an envelope cover that’s super trendy and cute! It will keep your smart phone safe from harm and if you want to just bring your phone with you on the go and slip a credit card and cash into it, I think it work perfectly for that too!

If you’re into something a bit more simple and classic you can opt for a black leather case couch or the eForCity Black SportBand Case for those of you who like to use your cell phone when you’re at the gym! I know I love to use and bring my cell phone to the gym so that I can watch my favorite shows on Amazon.com or catch the last part of a movie on Netflix. Like I said, smart phones are extremely smart (literally) and are essentially our mini computers today, so it’s fun to treat them as such!

So now that I’ve introduced you to many fantastic smart phone accessories, it’s time to get hooked up and connected! I know that cell phones are going to continue to improve (if that’s even possible), and I can’t wait to continue to style up my phone even more as time goes on!

Light A Spark This Holiday Sparkle Up Your Style

Tracy | September 29, 2020October 3, 2021

I can’t believe that Christmas is almost here. The month has managed to fly by and before we know it Christmas will arrive! I love all of the glitz and glamour that comes along with the holiday season. I enjoy seeing the sparkly ornaments, tinsel, mistletoe, and other fun elements and accessories that the holidays bring.

It’s also wonderful that you can enjoy New Year’s Eve and Day with sparkly elements that really seem to shine. I for one have always loved the sparkle that comes with the holidays. You can find sparkly elements to wear or sparkly home decor items to make your home come alive with happiness!

I scoured JoeShopping.com’s products for some amazing finds and here are some sparkly shopping items to put a spark in your holiday season. And no, I’m not talking about accidentally lighting your house on fire. Please be careful with those sparks!

Ugg Women’s Classic Sparkle Boots – I love any shoes made by UGG and these sparkle boots are no exception. Can you just picture yourself wearing these with a pair of grey leggings and a cute slouchy top? I can, and these boots are adorable and not to mention very sparkly and full of personality!

Sephora by OPI Jewelery Top Coats Sparkle Me Silver – I’ve had sparkly red nail polish on my fingernails for over a week now without any chips. OPI never ceases to amaze me. Their nail polish is amazing and I must get myself this Sparkle Me Silver nail polish. It looks fabulous and is the perfect shade with glistening sparkles for the the New Year!

Sparkle Leg Warmer – I’ve yet to wear a leg warmer, but these sparkly leg warmers have me tempted to try them out! I bet they’d work well to keep your legs warm and jazz up an outfit when it’s cold outside and you want to wear that skirt!

Sparkle Dog Waste Bags – Now this is something I would definitely use as a dog owner. I’d be that crazy dog lady who has the sparkly waste bags for her pup! What a fun idea for a dog owner who doesn’t like to clean up a mess because now the mess can be a whole lot prettier.

Stila Sparkle Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner – Why not make your eyes stand out when you head to your New Year’s Eve party and wear some sparkly eye liner? Stila has amazing cosmetics and this liquid liner is on top of my want list.

Wide Wire Mesh Copper Sparkle Tinsel – Of course I can’t forget the sparkly tinsel! It’s not too late to stock up on some of this sparkly goodness. You can use it for a upcoming party or just to make your house glisten and look glamorous!

I hope you found some sparkly items that you love just as much as I do. I love sparkles just because they instantly put a smile on my face and not to mention they make fashion all the more fun. Sparkle up your style with some sparkly accessories for the holidays!

Do Ethical Jobs In The Fashion Industry Exist

Tracy | September 19, 2020October 3, 2021

As is pretty standard for young girls, I dreamed of working in the fashion industry from a young age. After a brief designer phase where I sketched out wedding dresses, I moved onto fantasising about being a writer for Vogue, and finally settled on fashion buying with the chance to travel and earn big bucks. It was whilst studying for my degree in Fashion Promotion however, that I started to become disillusioned with the whole thing.

What’s the Problem?

The problem for me was the unethical, unsustainable side of the industry which I had only caught glimpses of in the past. Suddenly sweatshops and the throw-away nature of fast fashion became all too real for me and for the first time in probably eight years, I started to question whether I wanted to work in the industry at all.

Over the last three or four years I have dedicated a big part of my life to trying to understand whether ethical fashion can exist. I have volunteered for ethical organisations, blogged about ethical fashion issues and completed a Masters degree in ethical fashion. During this time I believe the industry has started to see real change, although it still has a long way to go. There have also been many concerns about ‘greenwashing’ – whether these businesses actually want to change or whether they are just doing their best to appear that way.

Is There a Solution?

There is a certain element to greenwashing in some companies, but the vast majority I believe are trying to do the right thing. A lot of fashion students are choosing to study ethical fashion for their dissertations and final design collections and a number of college courses and modules have popped up in recent years to meet demand from both students and the industry. There are a range of opportunities available for ethically minded fashion lovers, from small consultancy organisations to large high street retailers. Roles include ethical sourcing/trading, CSR and design.

It is sometimes worried that CSR is a public relations role, primarily concerned with displaying an ethical image for a company. This is more down to individuals however to push real changes forward. Plus getting consumers on the ethical bandwagon is half of the battle, and communication is vital. The problems arising most often in the fashion industry is that supply chains become so long and complex, it is easy for managers to miss that fact that orders are being outsourced to unreputable suppliers. The fashion industry may not be considered the ‘greenest’ but rather than turn our backs on it in disgust/frustration, ethically minded individuals need to break into the industry to create real change.

Scents To Make You Swoon

Tracy | September 19, 2020October 3, 2021

If there is one thing that I love, it is perfume. Honestly, who doesn’t love to smell good? (Hopefully no one…that might be weird) : ) Male or female, scent is one of the first things that people notice when they are around you. More than likely, we all want that to be pleasant.

There are SO many perfumes/colognes out there that sometimes it can be hard to find that “perfect” scent for your body. I am a firm believer in the fact that scents smell differently on different people. I hate whenever I like a perfume on a friend and then go and buy that same thing and it smells different on me.

The biggest tip that I have learned when trying to find a perfume/cologne is to TRY TRY TRY! Try before you buy. Perfume counters always have tester options and let you squirt on a few sprays to try out different scents. If there is a scent that you are thinking about purchasing, spritz on the tester version and wear it the rest of the day to see if a) you like it and b) it lasts all day.

There’s two things that I always look for in a scent: that it smells good (obviously!) and that it lasts all day or at least for awhile. There’s nothing more annoying than smelling good when you leave the house and it being gone by the time you get somewhere. I’m sharing my two favorite perfumes and my two favorite colognes today. Read along and then tell me what y’all think…I’m always open for new favorites!

Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy – $47.71

This is definitely my favorite, go-to perfume. The price is reasonable and just the fact that it comes from Victoria’s Secret should tell you that the quality will be good. I spritz this on every morning and I still smell it when I come home at the end of the day. It’s that good. People ask me what scent I am wearing all day long when I have this on. It’s not overpowering, though, which is pretty essential as to not make people sick.

In fact, I just went and bought a brand new bottle yesterday.

Ralph Lauren Romance – $70

This one is definitely pricier. It’s Ralph Lauren, what do you expect? It’s pretty close up there with the VS perfume just because it lasts ALL day and smells so good. It’s a really feminine, girly scent and that’s what I love. I want to smell like a woman. : ) I keep this one as a backup and I use it pretty frequently just to mix things up. Look for coupons to help with that steep price!

Acqua Di Gio – $62

This is hands down my favorite scent for my husband to wear. Talk about melt my heart when I smell it. Yum. It’s a pretty strong scent, so you definitely don’t need much. It’s also a little on the expensive side, but I promise it’s worth it. Make the splurge. Confession: sometimes I take my husband’s and spray it on me…just to have that strong manly scent when he’s not home at night.

My husband says that he thinks this one is a little strong, but I think it’s just perfect. I like to smell a “man” scent on a man.

Calvin Klein Eternity – $45

This is my husband’s favorite scent. He says, “It’s classic and manly and it lasts all day long.” I love when he wears this because he smells like a man should smell…strong and rugged. This one is more affordable than the Gio above, so if price is your selling point, give this one a try.

Use Calvin Klein coupons to make it even more affordable.

So those are my top two scents for women and men. If y’all are looking for something new for Spring/Summer, give these a try. Remember, always go and try the tester on yourself first to make sure that you like it before you drop big bucks. I have found that salespeople at perfume counters are always very friendly, so ask them for help finding your perfect scent. Don’t stop trying until you find one that you love.

Disney Fans Never Need To Grow Up

Tracy | September 19, 2020October 3, 2021

Once upon a time, when you were little, you could probably be found on an area rug, pretending to soar away on a magic carpet like Aladdin. Or splashing in a bath tub, pretending to be The Little Mermaid. We all have a favorite Disney movie, one that made us laugh, cry, wish or dream.

As it turned out, none of our babysitters were ever as cool as Mary Poppins, woodland creatures can’t understand a word we’re saying, and in spite of taking a Peter Pan pledge to never grow up, we did.

But even though you’ve entered into adulthood, it’s still perfectly okay to embrace your inner child and your love of all things Disney. We searched through several online stores to find you 12 cool, sophisticated products that allow you to express your Disney love without looking like a 7 year old, an Orlando tourist or, well, this guy.

If you’ve ever wished upon a star, longed to fly to Never Never Land, dreamt of falling down a rabbit hole to a magical Wonderland (or if you just want to save a few bucks on some unique Disney merchandise!) these deals are for you.

Disney Couture Drink Me Necklace, $75

This detailed, platinum-plated Swarovski encrusted bottle hangs from a long, 28″ platinum chain and features a tiny, removable stopper and a gold tag that offers “Drink Me.” Much fancier than the little bottle Alice drank from, we’re sure. A hidden message can be found engraved on the bottom of the bottle (“Believe the Impossible.”)

Disney Princess Designer Nail Polish 10-Piece Set, $24.50

From the ruby red that reminds us of Snow White (perhaps her cherry pout or the wicked poisoned apple?) to the rich emerald green that recalls Ariel’s mermaid tale, it’s easy to see that the shades in this nail polish set were inspired by each of the Disney Princesses. From DisneyStore.com.

Free Shipping on a $75 purchase with code SHIPTODAY!
