Firstly, bear with me by making the title like ” Style like a pro” I just dont know on what’s the right one to call the post.. eheh But anyway, I just randomly got this image over the web which got my attention because the guy is neatly looking which I know most of the guys out there would probably like to style yourselves like he does on this photo, right?. Actually, styling yourself ( if you are a guy) is not that hard as long as you would know the basics of fashion. Like for example on this summer season, mostly guys are more into shirts basics and shorts for bottom than to these highly fashion pieces because fashion is also relying to the current weather which I know most of you are quite knowledgeable already. So – I guess you may know by now on which pieces you must be consider in per season we can got along the way.

But if you’re still having an hard time to choose on which ones fits on you well. Still no problem, Because by my next post I will be listing out my fave stores (online stores) that has all of these trendy pieces for men were selling on. No worries, each stores that’ll be featuring are my current and past affiliated stores that means all of them are legit and has the most reasonable prices on each of their items inside their store’s shelves. But for now let me finish this off first then I’ll get back to you later today maybe or by tomorrow for the store’s list then I’ll be including some codes to use too for you to enjoy your shopping experience through the stores I suggested. 🙂

Awesome Timepieces by Peter Cuderman

by admin

When Peter Cuderman set out on his quest to find a luxury watch, he never expected to be so taken back by the whole experience. After being frustrated, he decided to do something about it. The young B-school graduate left his cushy desk job in J.P. Morgan’s Private Bank and opened the doors to his business venture. He created Washington Mount Vernon, an American company that produces top quality watches. The inspiration for the company was from a watch discovered in the late 1800’s from the Washington Watch Company. Using a contemporary approach and inspiration from the Washington Watch Company, the first line, The 1776, was produced with a classic and timeless touch.

An automatic watch; the timepiece comes with an ETA 2892 movement engraved beautifully with the company seal and the all seeing eye, bearing each owner’s serial number. The hour and hand minutes are small scale modeled hands of the Washington Memorial. While the watch presents a simplistic look, each hour and the WASHINGTON name are raised with a 1.5 mm height and .25 mm thick polished index.

The package wouldn’t be complete without a box. The full sized treasure chest replica is a special reminder of the olden days of watchmaking. One of the company’s short term goals are to bring production from Switzerland to the United States. Each watch also comes with a certificate of authenticity, sealed in a wax envelope.

Washington Mount Vernon launched their Kickstarter campaign on May 2 and will be up and running for 43 days. You can pre-order a Washington 1776 for $575, roughly $700 of their suggested retail price.

It has become the most popular way to meet the man or woman of your dreams because the internet is easily accessible and there are hundreds of dating websites to help people find a partner.

Online dating is faster, easier and more convenient. Nowadays, it is considered a generally acceptable form of dating.

Probably the main reason why people choose online dating is because they get to select from many potential “candidates”. You can select the perfect person from millions of members.

Romantic Anniversary Gifts For Women

by admin

Buying anniversary gifts for your wife or girlfriend can be a difficult challenge. This year, steer away from the typical chocolates, flowers, and lingerie, and go with something a little different. Consider these suggestions for romantic gifts that the woman in your life is sure to love.

photo lacostegirlsnightin_zps8ffc239e.jpg

1. Perfume

Nice, name-brand perfumes can be an expensive purchase, so if your wife rarely splurges on extravagant scents, tell her how much you love her by purchasing something from Fragrance Villa or another fragrance store. Get something you smell and it’ll be a gift for you too every time she wears it!

2. Keurig Coffee Maker

Fragrances are nice, but there’s nothing quite like the smell of fresh coffee in the morning. When it’s just two people in the house, making an entire pot of coffee in the morning may seem like overkill. Simplify things by getting her a Keurig, which lets her make a single cup of coffee at a time. The different coffee and tea packets you can use with the machine give you virtually any coffee flavor you want, and all you have to do is load in the packet, put your coffee cup under the spout, and wait for the machine to brew it for you.

3. Spa Bath Set

Does she need to pamper herself a little? Purchase a really nice bath set for her and she’ll be able to. Items like bubble bath, bath beads, and scented bath candles can give her a spalike experience right from the comfort of her own home. Many stores that sell perfume also sell bath sets, so you can be sure to pick a bath or candle scent she’ll love! Toss a gorgeous fluffy bathrobe into the mix, and she’ll be able to go from a soothing soak to a delightful evening in.

4. Personalized Jewelry Box

Jewelry is a typical Valentine’s Day and anniversary gift, so why not think outside the box by thinking of the box itself? Get an easy-to-organize jewelry box and have her name written on the outside and a personal romantic message written inside the lid. It’s both a functional gift and a romantic one. If she doesn’t wear a lot of jewelry, consider getting her a larger box for her to store her fragrances and perfumes in.

5. Mix CD

The most meaningful gifts don’t always have to be pricey. Sometimes homemade gifts can be just as sweet. Pull together a list of songs that have meant something to you both as a couple, or love songs that put into words how you feel about her. Play it together when you give it to her and spend the evening slow dancing in the living room. Hearing those romantic lyrics and knowing you’re thinking them about her will melt her heart.

HIGHLIGHTS – A NEWBIES GUIDE

by admin

So, do you fancy a change of look? Maybe you’re considering lightening and brightening up your hair. If you’ve never had highlights before and you feel a bit nervous, fear not, ROCK PAMPER SCISSORS presents the first-timers guide to highlights for all you newbies.

Highlights are achieved by applying streaks of colour in the form of a dye or paste, usually containing peroxide or a bleaching agent to thin sections of the hair, evenly around the head. The effect can be dramatic or subtle depending on the colour of the base and the contrasting highlight; it’s a popular alternative to a full, all-over dye which is also known as single process colour. If you have a good natural hair colour that doesn’t wash out your skin tone, highlights can be a great way to simply enhance and brighten up your look; alternatively, highlights can also be applied to pre-dyed hair. As explained in this article, http://www.sofeminine.co.uk/hair/lowlights-vs-highlights-f89948.html, highlights are a great way to add depth, texture and accents to your hair.

You can opt to have highlights applied to just the top layers of your hair; this is known as a ‘half-head’ and is generally cheaper and quicker than having highlights throughout your hair (whole-head), which is really only necessary if you have very layered hair or wear your hair up a lot.

Peter Lamas describes the different techniques used to apply highlights, the most common of which is with foils. The sections of hair are placed on a strip of foil, brushed with the lightener or colour and then folded into the foil to develop. For very short hair, sometimes a cap is used which has small holes through which strands of hair are pulled and then coloured.

So, which highlight shades will work best for your hair? According to totalbeauty.com, it’s important to know if cool or warm tones work best with your natural colouring. Work it out by holding swatches of silver and gold against your hair to see which looks best.

Although it is possible to highlight your own hair at home, we at ROCK PAMPER SCISSORS think it’s advisable to go to a salon for your first time. You can discuss the best shades for you with a professional colourist, watch the application techniques in action and ask for tips on ways and products to maintain your beautiful, newly highlighted mane.
