Snows are starting to melt down, and summer season is fast approaching here where I resides. Nope! I think we do have a year-round summer season.LOL That’s why having an great sunglasses is a must! ehhe Today, let me share with you these new set of collaborative sunglasses from the 2 giant brands called Bernhard Willhelm & MYKITA. They came up on this idea of releasing new set of sunglasses that has this vintage theme and at the same time it has these trendy features on it.

I simply liked the UV protection feature which helps us to protect our eyes in the sun rays and other irritating lights from the outdoor activities. Also, the colors uses on the sunglasses lenses are pretty cool too and it can brings back really the 80’s era which I know most of our parents would surely like to have. This is a prefect gift too for your dad this new year.

As of now, the Bernhard Willhelm x MYKITA 2014 Spring/Summer Collection is not yet available in the market. However, as the brand states few days back. These sunglasses were be able to be out these days ahead, probably at the first week or 2nd week of the month of January 2014. So – we better check this out! 🙂

I miss posting some kpop related posts on this site, istarblog.com. Because I’ve been too busy doing my offline stuff these past few days due of holiday season. But now, I think I am freely already on my offline tasks which mum insistently wanted (forced) me to do. LOL Okay, recently, I’ve been stumbled with this one Kpop fan based site where this dope jacket were posted and look, Yoseob of b2st wore it out and rock it to dope. The Jacket is from the brand “Opening Ceremony Exclusive” not sure though if it is the brand’s name of it or just an part of the whole jacket’s name. LOL, Bear with me then because I am not really familiar with this find. ehhe

Anyway, the Jacket ” Opening Ceremony Exclusive Varsity Jacket” is okay with me though I do liked the colors uses to it and still, I wanted it to be more unique by adding some more prints in it. Because as Ive seen the other finds out there from the other brands, I think, they were all working on with these patterns and prints for this 2014’s fashion trends that’s why having it to any finds, it is well to do on my opinion. But overall, the jacket is perfectly to wear especially on this winter season we have.

Shop Chic Dresses Online

Your prom is one of the special events while in high school. Finding a dress can be fun, and you can look for one that reflects your personality so that it is different from all the rest. Shop by style so that you can find the perfect dress to accent your neckline, body style and height.

Nude or Print?
When looking for a prom dress, you should first decide whether you want one that has a lot of color or one that has a nude effect. The color of your dress will help determine the color of shoes and accessories you will wear. Nude dresses often have colored beading or jewels on the top of the dress, and the rest of the dress is a beige or ivory color. Print dresses can be fun because you have several colors to choose from, and there are a variety of designs you can look for. Choose from an animal print with multiple colors or an elegant dress with variations of the same color.

Sleeves
After you have determined what color of dress you want to get, you need to look at the sleeves. Are you going to wear something that is sleeveless with a scarf or wrap, or will you get something that has longer sleeves in the event the evening is chilly? There are dresses with only one shoulder and dresses that have a sleeve design that makes it look like there is an entire sleeve when there is really only decorations on the arms.

Accents
The accents on the dress are the last things you will choose. Ruffles are an option if you want the dress to have bounce and volume. You can get a dress that is higher in the front with a lower portion in the back that extends to the feet. Choose a dress that has lace if you want something that is more elegant. Feathers are a fun option if you want the top in one color and the bottom in a different shade. After you have your dress, complete the ensemble with shoes and jewelry.

Catching Fire: Hunger games inspired style

by admin

photo sev-catching-fire-premiere-outfit-katniss-blog_zps1a58b446.jpg

You might have read the books or taken a trip to the cinema, or your interaction with Hunger Games franchise may have been accidental, but, you would have been exposed to it at one point or another – unless you just woke up from a coma that is.

Having made its mark on box-office figures and book sales, Catching Fire has proved to be hot hot hot in the fashion world, influencing both men and women’s styles.

From attractive actors to outstanding clothing, your gaze never wanders from the screen. I particularly love the contrast between the practical fashions of the rugged Districts and opulent designs of the Capitol.  From earthy tones and distressed denim, to high-shine fabrics and blue hair, the differences are a stroke of true costume design genius.

So if you want to create something a worthy of Katniss, Peeta or Caesar, here’s my top outfits picks to help you create your own screen-hero.

Caesar Flickerman

One of the boldest characters in the films without a doubt, Caesar’s style is loud and over the top. While you might think his purple eyebrows and high-shine jackets are more fancy dress than street style, you can take a little of his confidence and wear it with ease. How about a gorgeous Alexander McQueen skull suit? Available from FarFetch, it might be pretty costly but again, it’s McQueen, it’s hardly going to be bargain! Forgetting its price, I think it’s a great Caesar-esc suit for the bold dresser who wants to make an entrance and entertain an audience.

Katniss Everdeen

For all my fashion loving girls who are looking for a more accessible style, the woman to turn to is the heroic Katniss Everdeen. The District 12 fighting femme has made a huge impact on current trends and we’re seeing her stylish practicality everywhere. Chanel her ready-for-anything look by pairing these gorgeous dark grey marble effect Lee skinny jeans from Psyche with a tough but pretty pair of boots. The Ugg Australia Black Jena Military Boots are perfect!

Peeta Mellark

Peeta is our reliable hero and like him, most of his clothing choices are wardrobe-essentials you can trust. He owned the tight black tee during the fight-to-the-death games, so invest in a good cotton number as a base-layer. Pair it with some khaki trousers and a hooded waterproof jacket, like the Lyle & Scott vintage jacket from ASOS and you’re ready to be victorious – in the fashion stakes that is.

For women with a fuller figure, choosing a style that they feel comfortable with can be tricky. If you’re a curvy lady who’s struggling to decide on the right look for your body shape, it’s important to go for pieces that flatter your curves whilst minimising problem areas. Don’t even consider wearing shapeless layers in the hope of disguising your curves. Instead be proud of your feminine shape, follow these great hints for stylish looks for curvaceous women and rock those curves!

The Belted Trench

A belted trench is the perfect coat to highlight an hourglass figure, as the belt nips in your waist and exaggerates its tiny size compared to your hips and bust. Tie the belt as tightly as is comfortable to really accentuate your knockout figure and give you a fashionable 1950s look. If you’re particularly busty, then a double-breasted trench will add extra bulk on top, so try a single-breasted trench for a more flattering effect. A belted trench is casual enough to be worn for shopping trip and can be dressed up for a smart night out, so make sure your wardrobe contains at least one!

Printed Leggings

All too often, curvy girls shy away from prints in case they accentuate any lumps and bumps, but in fact prints can be a hot look for any shape and size. The range of printed leggings out there at the moment is huge, from animal print to floral, and a teaming a pair of these fab leggings with killer heels and a tunic top is a great look for everyone. If you have more curves than most, don’t go for all-over prints; instead choose a plain coloured top with some statement jewellery to accessorize your printed leggings. High heels will make your legs appear longer and slimmer, so choose a pair with the highest heels that you feel comfortable walking in.

photo Peplum-Top_zps93cfd22f.jpg

A Peplum Top

Another great way to accentuate a nipped-in waist is a peplum top, and this style is great for the office, a party or even a casual Sunday brunch. Worn with a pencil skirt, trousers or jeans, peplum tops can by styled up or down and look great on women of all sizes. Don’t be put off by the flared peplum and fret that it’ll emphasize larger hips, in actually camouflages them whilst looking totally on-trend. One thing to get right is to make sure that the waist of the top sits where your actual waist is, otherwise you may lose some of the hourglass effect. Shop around until you find the perfect fit for your body type.

Colour-Blocking

Colour-blocking is using intentionally placed blocks of bright, contrasting colours in your outfit, and looks totally fabulous when done correctly. You don’t want the colours to clash, so think carefully about what colours will complement each other whilst still being different. This trend is the perfect way to draw attention to your favourite areas of your body, whilst playing down your problem areas. Make sure that the bright colours cover the parts you want to highlight, whilst neutral tones hide the parts you want to disguise. A colour-block dress with neutral side panels will give your figure that sexy hourglass shape.

The Wrap Dress

A wrap dress is the perfect go-to dress for shapely girls, and can be worn for any occasion. With their winning combination of cinched-in waist and flattering v-neck, wrap dresses show off your beautiful figure to its best advantage. The tied-in waistline makes women of any size and shape look curvy and fabulous, and a v-neck is great for bigger busts as it draws attention to a great cleavage and elongates the neck. A classic black wrap dress looks great with bright accessories and statement jewellery, but a bold print will also look fantastic.

Whether you’re looking for your own unique style to wear to the office, on a glamorous night out or just for a walk in the park, learning what style best suits your shape is essential for any woman. For those with curves, think nipped-in waists, flattering necklines, clever use of colour as camouflage and showing off your best assets. Play around with different colours, styles and accessories and you’ll have no problems looking sexy and stylish, whatever your size and shape.

 

The NFL’s All-Time Rushing Leaders

by admin

photo EXO_TEASER_04_zps5d458a52.jpg

Many different statistics are taken into consideration in the debate of who the greatest NFL running back of all time is. One of the stat-lines that is always taken into consideration is who had the most rushing yards from scrimmage, one of the favorite bets at allpro . There have been many great running backs in the history of the NFL. Some of them were better runners than others, while others were better in the passing attack or as blockers. Some great running backs went on to win Super Bowls while others did not. But if we are talking about all-time rushing records, then the most career running yards from scrimmage is an undeniable statistic for determining greatness.

According to this statistic, these are the three all-time rushing leaders in the history of the National Football League.

Emmitt Smith

In his 15 years as a running back in the NFL, Smith amassed more rushing yards than any other running back in the history of the NFL. Playing from 1990 to 2004, Smith rushed for a total of 18,355 yards. Not only is he the all-time leading rusher by a significant margin, many analysts consider Smith to be the most complete running back of all time. He was as good catching the ball as he was running with it, and there are not many running backs that had the speed, power and elusiveness that he had.

Smith was a first-round draft pick of the Dallas Cowboys, where he played for the majority of his illustrious career. He went on to win three Super Bowls with the Cowboys and is also the only running back in the history of the league to win four of the most coveted awards in one year. Namely, for the 1993 season, Smith won the Super Bowl with the Cowboys, was named the Super Bowl MVP, the league MVP, and won the rushing crown for most rushing yards by any running back that year. He is also one of only two non-kickers to account for over 1,000 points in his career. Smith was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010, being the first player from the 1990 draft class to receive this honor.

Walter Payton

Payton held the rushing record for the longest time of any running back until it was finally broken by Emmitt Smith. He rushed for a total of 16,726 yards in between 1975 and 1987 as a member of the Chicago Bears team. “Sweetness,” as he was called, was easily the most dominant football player of his era. In fact, during his most prolific year, he led the league not only in rushing yards, but also rushing attempts, touchdowns scored, yards from scrimmage, all-purpose yards, and a slew of other offensive categories.

Payton was even good at throwing the ball. He threw for eight touchdowns in his career, which is more than any other non-quarterback in league history. Payton was selected to the Pro-Bowl nine times in his career and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1993. He was also known as a great humanitarian and his legacy of helping others continues to live on through the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award, which is given to players involved in volunteer and charity work. Payton won a lone Super Bowl as a member of the 1985 Bears.

Barry Sanders

If you ask anyone who the running back was that was most exciting to watch, most would say Barry Sanders. Known as being the most elusive running back of all time, his legacy might be the strongest, considering that he was able to achieve such incredible personal statistics while virtually always playing on a losing team. Sanders amassed 15,269 in his career playing for the Detroit Lions. He never reached a Super Bowl, but is still regarded as being one of the best running backs in the history of the sport. Sanders averaged over 1,500 rushing yards per season, which is even more incredible considering that the Detroit Lions usually had a fairly poor passing game and opponents knew that Sanders would be getting the ball on a majority of the team’s offensive plays.

How to Find Good Value Mobile Phone Deals

by admin

Mobile phones are expensive, and there’s no way around that. If you want a high spec mobile phone, you have to pay for it. We’d all love that not to be the case, but because they are in such demand, there’s no way that prices are dropping anytime soon. That being said, the way you buy a mobile phone can have a big impact on the amount that phone will cost you over the couple of years that you are likely to own it. Here we have put together a bit of information for you to digest, which will hopefully help you to understand the best, and worst ways you can buy your swanky new mobile phone!

Long Term Contracts at Your Peril!

Long term contracts almost always seem like a good deal when first viewed. A free iPhone or Samsung Galaxy S4? Yes please! If it sounds too good to be true, it’s because it is. These deals indeed give you a free phone at the outset of the contract, but you are going to be paying for your phone and your calls, texts and data for the duration of the contract. What’s more, when you weigh this approach up against other options, you’ll soon discover that it’s not the cheapest way to buy.

SIM Only Deals

Buying a SIM only contract is often the best way forward. A SIM only contract is still a contract with a phone network giant, but because you’re not taking one of their phones on the deal, you obviously pay less money for the contract – a lot less. For whatever you can agree for either the year, or thirty days they ask for you to sign up for, you will get a pre determined amount of minutes, texts and data, and it’s normally for a very agreeable price. A couple of hundred minutes, a similar amount of texts and a reasonable amount of mobile data is probably not going to cost you much more than five pounds, while a twelve month contract for unlimited data, calls and texts should be attainable for around £15. This is a drop in the ocean in comparison to the many, many contracts that cost from thirty pounds upwards. If you consider this route to a mobile phone, you need to factor a few things in.

Find the Right Mobile

Firstly, you should try to find a mobile phone you like, and find out what it is going to cost you to buy it outright. This might be problematic for some people, but there are ways around that. For instance, if you want an iPhone, you can expect to pay around £500 for the privilege. Some people don’t have that sort of cash to hand, which is why they often opt for a long term contract with the phone free upfront. Sometimes a better option is actually to buy the phone with a credit card, and set up a direct debit to pay off the balance across a couple of years. Amazingly, doing this and taking up a top SIM only contract for 12 months back to back works out significantly cheaper than if you opted for the contract. Of course, if you find a mobile phone which is a little cheaper, you stand to make even greater savings.

Do Your Sums!

The important thing is to make sure you get your maths right. Let’s start with £500 for your iPhone. Add to this £15 per month for 24 months if you want to go for a SIM only deal which gives you unlimited calls, texts and data. Overall you’re looking at a cost of £860. At the moment you can pick up an iPhone 5S on a two year contract from Carphone Warehouse with 1GB of data per month, along with unlimited calls and texts for £42 per month. Over the duration this is going to cost you £1008. The difference is huge, and of course, any interest payments on a credit card can easily be absorbed in the money that you are going to save by using this approach.

SIM Only Flexibility

1 year contract SIM card tariffs also give you so much flexibility. If you know that you need all the data in the world but you don’t actually make too many calls, then you will almost certainly be able to find a SIM only package that suits your needs. What’s more it’ll cost you less too!

When you look at the market place and divide it up into these two different options, it seems to us that there should be no question of how you fund your next mobile phone. The contract is sometimes viewed as the most convenient way of getting things sorted out, but at what cost? Don’t throw away your money; just spend a few minutes doing a bit of research to help you save hundreds of pounds on your next phone!
