The Return of RED

Ladies this one is for you (but men can us it if they want to and we are not judging too much)

We are in the final lap of Spring/Summer 2010 fashion season and one of the big trends and returning from earlier times is red lips. Woman have been wearing naturals and gloss for the past several season. Here is a great way to add some drama in your look for a night on the town. Do not throw out your naturals and gloss, those are for day time. Red is the colour of seduction, passion, and sex and reserved for evening looks.

To make the color last longer and keep its drama for more of the night outline and fill in your lips with a similar color lip lining pencil. The color will stay that much better and longer. Also keep in mind with a strong lip color keep the eye makeup a little more subdued.

Look Better Nekkid - Buff Bus rules

Here are the rules if you want to ride the Buff Bus. Nothing changes if nothing changes. That also means that if you are not doing anything then nothing will change.

- I will do some kind of activity 3 times a week for at least 20 minutes each time. Consistancy is the key!
- I will stay hydreated by drinking water throughout the day
- I will challenge myself each time i do a workout of activity
- I will be honest about myself and where I am at
- I will set goals and hold myself accountable to them

Remember that it is not always about loosing hte weight. This is a rules apply if you are trying to gain weight as well. You need to establish which side you want to be on and then commit to it through your goals.
Second thing to remember it is called Look Better NEKKID! You need to be able to check yourself out in the mirror or if you are ok taking a picture of yourself naked that way you can see your results. You need to be comfortable with your body! Naked is the way to go!

Bye Bye Blu

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. It has been a bit of a stressful last couple of weeks.
I had to say good bye to my Great Dane puppy Ella Blu. I took her in to get her spade and she stopped breathing in recovery. I guess that was the best place for something to happen because they can do very advanced stuff. It was a sad day for my family.
We are doing well and dealing with the loss. Ben has been checking Ella Blu's kennel to see if she is in there and Paris has been sleeping on Ella Blu's bed at night.
We are moving on and her memory will still live in us!

Mobile Phone Etiquette

This is such a problem! Cell phone are everywhere! You can be walking and see several on the street with you. Might even be yourself. In you car look at a stop light and see several people
around you on theirs.
When people do not know how to function or they become truly and fully addicted to them is the sad part. Whether it is a regular cell phone, iPhone, or a BlackBerry, there is a time and a place. But more importantly there is Not the time and NOT the place. Before you all think that i am knocking cell phone and that we should get ride of them, it is quite the opposite. I am slightly dependant on my BlackBerry. Below are some times that it is not the place to us you phone.

1. If you are in the a line up and talking ok that is cool. Keep it to a soft conversation. When you get to the front of the line and are talking to a sales person or what have you END the call. So rude to try and talk to both. if you are unable to do that get out of the line or let someone a head of you.

2. Do not talk on your phone in the gym, or at the theatre. In the gym there is no reason to use you phone other then maybe listening to music or if you are a doctor and on call. In the theatre as soon as the show or performance starts the phone goes away or off.

3. When you are with real people take it easy on the phone. Use of it here and there is alright. Just remember that you are out with a real person that deserves your attention. An American Senator had his funding pulled because he answered a text while in a meeting with his funders.

Mobiles phones are tools for life, not out partners or our friends. The help us and make things more convenient so we have more time with ourselves and others that we need to or value and love. Do not let them rule your life. Put them down every now and again.
