The abundance of online optical stores have made shopping for eyeglasses more fun.

Frames for eyeglasses come in many styles and colors. Know first which frames your prescription lenses need. Then, determine your face shape and select frames that enhance your best facial features.

If your face shape is oval, do not pick frames that are too narrow. For an oblong face with oval features, a squared or rectangular frame would look good. Frames with a low bridge that shortens the nose also suit an oblong face. If your face has a square shape, buy narrow frames with narrow ovals and wide widths. For round faces, angular narrow frames will help the face appear thinner. Frames that are rectangular in shape are likewise suitable. If you have a diamond shaped face, you would want your frames to soften the cheekbones, so oval, rimless frames, and cat-eye frames are the best choices.

Roll up your sleeves and jeans

Long sleeves are just made so you can roll them up, especially if you are wearing shirt. Also a few buttons should be unbuttoned, and sleeves should be rolled up to the elbow or just below it. The same case should be with jeans. These two types of stylization are the easiest way to make your outfit look cool and leisure. For elegant look, our proposition is to wear black saloon pants, it is quite enough to look classy and trendy.

Instead of tucking in the whole shirt In your pants or any other lower part of clothing, do it only with one part, in a way that the rest is freely falling over. This is one of the simplest ways to make your clothes look leisure. You can do the same with your shirt, jumper or blouse.

Seal the things with belt

Slim leather belt is a great accessory which can transform each and every outfit. From shirt, a belt can create a dress, and from sash a great detail for trench and it can also freshen up the coat or oversized jumper. Also, the belt doesn’t have to be put exactly at the waist; you can let it fall to your sides if you want to have a more laid back look. For this styling you don’t need much time, and the effect is more than great.

Before you hit the streets and the mall for a tour of shopping, be sure to check your finances, because financial crisis is still around somewhere.

Wearing Clothes According To Your Body Type

To look your best in the clothes you wear, you should know first your specific body type because understanding your body figure is an essential aspect of building your personal style. Remember that not all colors, designs, fabrics, and trends suit every figure. The five general body shapes are Apple, Pear, Rectangle, Inverted Triangle, and Hourglass (the most ideal body shape). Once you know your shape, you will be able to correct and hide parts of your body so you can achieve a balanced silhouette.

If you have an Apple figure, opt for colors that will make you look slim suck as black, brown, navy, and gray. Avoid overly busy prints or patterns and instead go for subtle prints. Choose fabrics like matte jersey, cotton, and wool. Pear-shaped women should wear darker colors to slim the rear, hip, and thigh area. She should not wear an all over pattern or print and opt for fabrics like matte jersey, cotton, and polyester blends. Those with a rectangle shape should wear bright colors to create the illusion of a bigger body. Wear bold prints and patterns and choose clingy fabrics like silk and satin as well as stretchy ones like spandex and cotton.

A woman with an Hourglass figure is lucky because she can wear almost any color. Keep in mind though that white, cream, light pink, baby blue, and canary yellow makes you look larger than you really are. Most prints and patterns look great on a woman with this figure. Since curves should always be emphasized, form-fitting fabrics like spandex, leather, cotton, and matte jersey are the best. Steer clear of overly heavy fabrics. The Inverted Triangle body shape is the most athletic-looking silhouette characterized by wide shoulders and lack of curves. Wear clothes that will draw attention away from your shoulder line. Opt for clothes that will make your hips and thighs look fuller and rounder.

When your leather briefcase gets wet, blot the wet spots right away with a dry cloth. Do not rub it and have it air-dried. Condition the leather briefcase every six months by using a conditioning product that is used primarily for leather. Use a soft cloth or a sponge applicator to apply the conditioner. You should also wipe the inside of the leather briefcase at least once a month by using a damp cloth. Remember to store them in the closet when you are not using them, away from dirt and sunlight. It is best if you place them in a box or fabric bag.
