Cocktail for Two

Image
Okay, in all honesty i dint do any work here, just had to rip the content whole, with a little modification. Tequila Sunrise Another one that makes us feel like we should be on holiday. Preferably being waited on by a gorgeous Mexican  sigh . Ingredients: 3 parts Tequila 6 parts Orange Juice 1 part Grenadine (don't stir - let it sink to the bottom!) Jazz it up - for a Tequila Sunset use Blackberry Brandy instead of Grenadine Sea Breeze A long cocktail just made for lazing round on the poolside. Or at least imagining that you are... Ingredients: 1 part Vodka 3 parts Cranberry Juice 1 part Grapefruit Juice Jazz it up - use Pineapple Juice instead of Grapefruit to make a Hawaiian Sea Breeze. Martini A Gin-heavy cocktail that's not for the faint-hearted. Favoured by Winston Churchill and described by E.B. White as 'the elixir of quietude' (does that just mean it makes you pass out?) Ingredients: 5 parts Gin 1 part Vermouth

Right hair, write occasion

Hello everyone and welcome. Today's topic promises to be looks-changing,.... just coined my own word - can someone make me a dictionary already. Anyway, people talk so much about the right make-up for the right occasion, the right dress, etc, but we turn our attention to a significant but often ignored factor in department of looks - the hair. The year 2014 saw the birth as well as the death of a wide array on hair styles' some we'll miss, others it was about time. Quite a large number of people should be probed when it comes to hair-do's, some say theirs cover up disfigurements , another group due to finances, and the most unfortunate of them all, those with evil stylists, who incessantly tells them, that no other style would turnout as good as the signature hair do made by them. O well, that is where I come in. Your signature hair-do is great, but it keeps you in a time and age people have turned away from, plus, it doesn't hurt to be trendy. Ever wondered why

Fashion scent

Image
Science has it that amongst the 5 senses we have, the sense of smell has the strongest effect on emotions as well as cognition.The association of fragrance and emotion is not an invention of poets or perfume-makers. Our olfactory receptors are directly connected to the limbic system, the most ancient and primitive part of the brain, which is thought to be the seat of emotion. Smell sensations are relayed to the cortex, where ‘cognitive’ recognition occurs, only after the deepest parts of our brains have been stimulated. Thus, by the time we correctly name a particular scent as, for example, ‘vanilla’ , the scent has already activated the limbic system, triggering more deep-seated emotional responses. I'll spare you the lecture but basically fashion is image, and no one wants an aesthetically stinky one. Hence today we'll be paying attention to scents. Designers have been generous enough to afford us the opportunity to purchase their exquiste scents, as well as couture, hereby

Metal is the new fashion

Image
Metals don't just act (shoutout optimus prime), they have always been a member of the fashion omega prime family, from ear rings to leg chains, there's almost no part of the body that does have a metal accessory. In recent times this flare for metals has changed the fashion world from metallic coloured spray tans to metalic , make up and nail polish. Be one of the first to wear this look in 2015.

7 ways to know who you are in a relationship with.

Image
1. Where did you meet and what were you both doing there? Love is not found at the stripper joint, orgy, house parties etc unless you are T-pain, Usher or Drake, these are places where skin is of more relevance than mind. You can't catch a penguin in the savannah, so your hunting ground talks a lot about your partners comfort zone. The exception is if it were his/her first time. 2. How did he approach you. There's the romeo-in-love approach, chasing her from the shadows, love notes, trespassing on private property , and almost getting killed or actually dying in the process, this is the ideal, but I choose the less ideal of a witty but yet polite pickup line. Brave with a ting of cockiness served with a little coy. Disrespectful approach connotes a long standing abusive nature to the opposite sex. 3. How soon before he asked you out Call me old school but I don't believe in love at first sight, crush or lust at first sight I totally agree, but I believe it is ver

Insecurity in relationships

Image
We will be commencing this discussion with what security is: security in this context is a feeling of safety, therefore insecurity is a lack of safety. Insecurity in relationships comes when you are living from fear rather than intent. Instead of the positive decision to have a happy stable relationship you are seeking to avoid an outcome you do not like. It may be the fear that she is cheating, the fear that you are not good enough for her or any other fear. The key is that fear dominates. Happy successful relationships come about when people are operating with intent. They create the circumstances they want in life rather than avoiding those they do not like. Here is a simple analogy to further explain this, a new mother can be very anxious and insecure about her babies welfare. Now in an event she has to travel without her baby for a very important business meeting, in order not to allow her fears dissuade her, she puts-up safety measures for her baby and this would include

Eat your way to a younger, healthier you

Age of course is an inevitable process, and this comes with changes to our physique and health, inspite of these unwanted changes we constantly seek out techniques to cheat the ageing process. In recent times drugs and surgery have placed smiles of the faces of people, as well as frowns. Many have fallen victims to side effects or complications from these interventions. And this brings us to our topic of today, in blessed memory of Albert Einstein who said "look into nature and you will understand all things" for this and his other philosophies he lives on in our hearts. Ageing is a natural process and it is only wise to turn to nature for help in retarding the progression of our ageing bodies, and here is what nature said... "Eat of the plant of good health" she also gave us a list: 1. Oats "I recommend complex carbohydrates like oats because they're low-glycemic," says Debra Jaliman, MD. She is a New York dermatologist and author of Skin Rules. B

5 outdoor places to make love.

1. The cinemas Items needed a mini skirt, long zipper, popcorn, soda, tickets to a boring movie, and your good to go. 2 things to keep in mind, be sure the movie is as boring as watching a bear sleep through hibernation, that would ensure less viewers.
