Clean Without Dangerous Chemicals

If you are looking for the perfect cleaning cloth then I suggest you try GoGreen The Ultimate Cloth. Here are a few things people are saying about the cloth.
C Rhoades, Chillicothe, OH
"My son and his wife bought some cloths from you at the Home & Garden show. They had just paid someone $60 to clean all the windows in their house and they looked terrible. They cleaned them again with one of your cloths. It took them less than an hour and they are so clear, it's hard to tell there's actually glass in them!"

M Beam, Kokomo, IN
"I bought two cloths at the Indianapolis Flower and Garden Show. I gave one to my cleaning lady yesterday. She woke me up this morning and said that she just had to have some more of these cleaning cloths for her sister and daughter. My husband has asthma and I'm on a crusade to get as many chemicals out of my house as is possible. You have a really good product."

C. Mcginty
"I own my own residential cleaning business and my husband came home with these cloths and told me to try them and I cannot tell you how much time it saved me not having to use all different kinds of cleaning products and rags and paper towels. I was so impressed with these cloths it has changed my way of cleaning. It is so much quicker and less expensive, they are a great investment."
J. Van Sciver
"I am an obsessive cleaner and I used to swear by SuperCloth until I tried this cloth. It cleans mirrors, windows, marble, granite, tile, china closet, curio cabinet like no other product. Leaves absolutely no streaks or lint behind. Saves so much time because I don't have to keep going over things 2 and 3 times to get them streak or lint free. Makes things actually "sparkle". My husband even noticed the difference. Definitely can't live without these cloths."

You will find a spray for this, a spray for that, a paste, a powder, an individual cleaner for each different surface in your home. Whether it's our glass, mirrors or windshields, our stainless steel, our wooden surfaces, our corian, granite, marble and formica countertops, shower doors and tiled surfaces and on and on and on. Wow, the marketing of America has brainwashed us into thinking that we have to have something unique and 'special' to clean every different surface in the environments we live and work in. STOP! It simply is NOT TRUE.
The Ultimate Cloth is extremely ECO-FRIENDLY because it uses water only for all of your cleaning and can work on every surface in your home.

Great Groomsmen Bridal Party Gifts

The majority of the time spent planning a wedding is spent on aspects such as the dresses and suits, the flowers, the wedding cake, the reception menus, and any other important details. It is important to properly thank all of the friends and family that have stood by and helped you plan your wedding while participating in key roles. Finding a gift to thank your groomsmen may be difficult, but is the perfect way to show your appreciation.

Purchasing a groomsmen gift is not very different from purchasing bridesmaid gifts. The key is to get the recipients gifts that they will thoroughly enjoy receiving and using. If necessary, you can do a little research to find a little bit about the tastes and hobbies of the groomsmen. This will enable you to find them a great gift that you know they will love.

Many of the following gift options can be personally engraved or monogrammed with the initials of the recipient. Other important details, such as the date of your wedding, can also be personalized onto your chosen gift. Your present will not only serve as a gesture of thanks towards the groomsman, but also as a reminder of the wedding he attended and the part he played. Jewelry, as well as most wooden, leather, and metal items, can also be engraved or monogrammed for a classically elegant gift that any man will enjoy.

Traditional Gifts for a Traditional Wedding

If you have planned a traditional wedding that will showcase a gorgeous flowing white bridal gown, plenty of flowers, and a large bridal party, then traditional gifts are perfect for your groomsmen. For this type of occasion, gifts such as pen sets, business card holders, flasks, and money clips are all great choices. These casual gifts can be elegant and special if you choose to order them in the silver or glass style. These are gifts that never go out of style and are sure to be appreciated by any groomsmen.

As mentioned above, gifts such as pen sets, business card holders, flasks and money clips can all be personally engraved to add that special touch of gratitude. Opt for engraving your groomsmen?s initials or a special message that they can always associate with the importance of your wedding day. Any of these gifts, or other gifts made from glass or silver are the perfect choice for a grand affair such as a traditional wedding.

For the Golfer

It is safe to say that most men enjoy golf and golf related items. If you find out that your groomsmen like to golf, then a golf-related gift is another perfect way to say thank you for helping plan and star in your wedding. A personalized putter set with the groomsmen?s name, initials or a special message related to the wedding is a great gift that they are sure to enjoy. Affordable golfing gifts such as personalized balls, tees, practice cups or personalized towels can also make great gifts.

Cufflinks and Tie Clips

Jewelry that can be worn during the wedding is an extremely popular choice for a gift for bridesmaids. However, this often beautiful gesture can also be extended towards your groomsmen. A handsome pair of cufflinks can make a great gift and can be personalized as well. If given to all of your groomsmen, they can be all worn together on the big day to match your chosen tuxedos or suits.

If your wedding is more casual and is not requiring your groomsmen to wear cufflinks, you can opt for getting them a tie clip instead. No matter what you decide to give, these are gifts which are easily made extra-special with monogrammed initials for each recipient.

Classic Barware and Fun Gifts

Barware is a perennial favorite for groomsmen gifts. A classic beer mug set, shot glasses, or personalized coasters, can make great casual and fun gifts that your groomsmen will enjoy receiving, and enjoy using even more! If you are having an elegant and classy wedding you can choose to give them a traditional glass decanter, a set of personalized wine glasses, or an engraved ice bucket. The wide range of barware gifts is sure to cover all of your groomsmen?s preferences.

As a Last Thought

No matter what type of gifts you decide on for your groomsmen try not to forget that the gifts you choose should reflect their tastes and preferences as much as you can. The gifts you give to members of your wedding party are a thank-you for their help before the wedding, and their attendance in your bridal party on the big day. Give your gifts from the heart, rather than out of a sense of tradition only, and choose carefully to make sure the gifts you give will please the recipient.

Sunglasses For Fashion And Protection

Sunglasses are often worn as a fashion statement. Kids think they look cool and adults feel undressed without their sunnies. But while they are making us feel cool and fashionable, they are also doing a great job in protecting our eyes from glare - so long as they are the right kind of sunnies. Don't just buy those that look dark; check the label to be sure that they block 99% of UV rays.

Too much sun glare can cause headaches in the short term and long term problems such as macular degeneration. Having the right kind of sunglasses will prevent these problems and also help to prevent glaucoma. Sunglass lens are treated in various ways. Some look mirrored, but while these may be cool, the experts tell us that they don't block out the harmful UV rays.

Polarized lenses cut out the glare from water, snow or pavement. They are ideal for fishing, whale-watching and driving. Photochromatic lenses change automatically from dark to light, so if you go from the inside to outside or sun to shade a lot, these are the ones for you.

You can also get tints and a grey tint is the one that does not change colour perception. Gradients have a tint at the top but it fades to no tint at the bottom, great when driving into a setting sun. If you need to wear prescription glasses, you can get clip-on sunnies to go over the top and save having two pairs of specs to look after.

What to wear to an outdoor concert or outdoor festival

Praia Urbana, the all-day music festival in Houston that takes place four times a year, was bigger and better than ever this past weekend. I captured a few great examples of what to wear for such an outdoor concert as I danced my way between the two stages.

Outdoor concerts and festivals require attire that is comfortable (i.e. not binding, breathable, quick to dry and low-maintenance). But that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style. The weather will usually call for something that you don't mind sweating in (although we were lucky this weekend at a high of 80 degrees F). Here's a checklist of other essentials:

Shades, of course.
A fabulous fan (the old-school kind that folds up nicely in your purse - it's a summer staple wherever I go).
Once it really starts to heat up, bring a bandanna or scarf to wick away heat, to dip into water for cooling off, or to tie your hair back from your face.
Baby wipes in a plastic baggie to "wash your hands" with, wipe away sweat, or to use in port-a-potties. 🙂
Suntan lotion / sunscreen!
Lots of water.
Cross-body bag to keep your essentials close to your person and to make it easier to carry all of the above essentials!

Look 1

Festive, feminine, and put-together. Great mix of color, light cotton tube dress, slightly embellished (but not too much!) flat sandals, big shades and artful but not over-the-top wooden jewelry (in complementary colors, no less). It's sweet and gets anyone who sees her in the mood to enjoy a beautiful day!

Look 2

Fun with color. The chick on the left had a blast - right down to her yellow shoes! Her funky-printed, airy dress; teal frames; and casual crossbody bag added to the fun atmosphere. And you couldn't beat her awesome attitude, which is, most of the time, half your look!

Look 3

Simple chic. For a more subdued look, the chick on the right had it down to a T. If you never thought to wear a hat, this is a great time to do it! Her cotton tank dress layered over a simple black tank created some dimension while her comfortable natural wedges added height. And the green crossbody bag was the perfect punch of color to this simple look.

Look 4

Sporty feminine. When I came up with this look, I simply wanted a touch of spring and natural elements while still maintaining my personal style in comfort. I thought I captured it well in a racer back tank, gray gladiator sandals, worn-leather satchel and necklace made from seeds (that I had strung myself!). Unfortunately, I didn't capture the best part…the ruffled number on the back of this simple, lined cotton-blend skirt for an extra touch of fun!

The Right Skin Tone Colors For You

When choosing swimwear, it's very important that you pick out colors that compliment your skin tone. No two people on this earth have the exact same skin color so remember when picking out your particular bikini, choose what is proper for you. Just because your best friend can wear a bright red polka dotted swimsuit and look great doesn't mean you can too. It might make you look like a clown. You might look great in a pastel pink with blue trim bathing suit that's tailored just for you. Here are some general tips to consider with regard to your specific skin tone. We are going to separate them in terms of pale, olive, caramel, and dark brown. You might not be exactly any of those skin tones but you are in between them.

If you have very pale skin and it's impossible to tan, then you would look good in soft pastel colored swimwear. The lighter colors will blend in well with your sensitive skin tone. Of course you could wear a bright red bikini if you choose but it will be strikingly noticeable. Plus if you are pale and should happen to get sunburned, the red bathing suit and your red skin will make you look like a lobster. Stick to the light colors like beige, peach and baby blue to show off your genuine and unique skin tone.

For olive skin tones, you can wear blues and greens without any problem. Those colors bring out the naturalness of your skin color. Mixing the colors up would work well for you like wearing a swimsuit with a green top and blue bottom with green trimming or dots. Purple and burgundy would also be very vibrant colors that you could wear.

Caramel skin should capture colors of the earth. Orange, peach and green are great colors that show off the depth of caramel skin. Mixing and matching the bikini colors is also a great idea for you. Having caramel skin also allows you to flaunt deep rich red colors if mixed in nicely with a few accessories like hats or scarves.

Dark brown to black skin looks great in brown, black and even white. The white would be very noticeable but it also brings out and compliments the rich skin tone. Bright red would be very vibrant but it's also another color that brings out the dark texture. Stick to colors that look good on you overall so you can walk around in that sexy swimsuit with pride.

No matter what skin tone or color you have, just remember that you are beautiful and unique in your own special way. Choose colors that fit you the best and don't worry about any one else unless you're buying them a gift.

The Fashion Sense Of The Everyday Woman

How do you define Fashion Sense?

There is not an official definition of the phrase, although I did find one on . I am not sure how official it would be, but it made ?sense? to me. It described fashion sense as an expression meaning: dressing in style; understanding what looks good. The example sentence they gave ?Cezanne says Jennifer Lopez has good fashion sense, but I think her outfits are ridiculous? Another website called defines fashion as ?Any mode of dressing or adornment that is popular during a particular time or in a particular place (i.e., the current style). It can change from one period to the next, from generation to generation. It serves as a reflection of social and economic status, a function that explains the popularity of many styles throughout costume history; in the West, courts have been a major source of fashion.

If you go back into history, when man & woman roamed the earth, the only fashion sense was their original birthday suit complete with fur (or hair if you prefer). As we evolved, only Royalty or wealthy folks were about the only ones who could afford to have a ?wardrobe? of varying styles, colours and materials. The have nots had to do with whatever material was on hand and their primary use was for warmth and protection.

It wasn?t until the early 1900?s that fashion dwindled down to the lower classes. As the buying power of the average man improved so did fashion with the average woman. What became fashionable in all of great Design Houses eventually became fashionable with everyday woman with manufacturers copying or replicating the designs into affordable clothing. But that didn?t mean that every outfit complimented every woman. Let?s face it, women come in all shapes and sizes, and clothing comes in all sizes, colours and materials. Not every single outfit or combination of clothing will suit every woman. However, human nature being what it is, we have a natural instinct to conform and be part of the herd. When a new ?fad? such as mini skirts, flapper dresses, go go boots, etc came into fashion, everyone had to have them regardless of whether it complimented your body.

A woman who has fashion sense dresses knowing that she has chosen an outfit that will compliment her body shape, regardless of the latest ?fad?. She may not be wealthy, hold a college degree, have a high IQ or even be a CEO of a major corporation. What she is, is someone who avoids buying something that is ?cool? or is pretty or just because. She takes the time to know what will suit her and the mirror will tell her she has made the right decision. With luck, it could be the latest fashion!

For most women, I would suspect that we make that decision and for the most part, women do have fashion sense, but it is their own. Even ladies who have been in the Blackwell?s Best Dressed Hall of fame do make the occasional fashion faux pas. It takes more courage for a woman to dress in what looks best for her and not what is the current ?look? if it does not suit her. The best example of a ?look? that I think is a disaster for many women is the ?bare midriff? look, with the cropped tops and low waist jeans. For that look, you need to have not one ounce of fat in that area. It is not a complimentary look for any woman with a spare tire around the middle, or as someone referred it to the ?Michelin Tire look?. And yes, I am one of those women that cannot wear that ?look?.

They say ?beauty is in the eye of the beholder? and everyone has their own idea of what is beautiful. Kudos for the woman who dares to wear what looks good on her and not fall to the whims to the latest fashion fad. I encourage all women to honestly look at themselves and dress for what suits you and not other people.
