			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The cold season holds different things for different people; some revel in the cold whereas some are miserable. Whichever category you fall in, keeping warm in winter will ensure you don’t have to spend your days in bed with a running nose and high temperature. Whereas you can probably get away with a light jacket or something when it gets a little nippy, you will need some heavy protective clothing when the mercury dips drastically south.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="Long Sleeved Vest" src="http://www.damart.co.uk/upload_dmrt/product/product/m/D818_M.jpg" alt="" width="235" height="352" /></p>
<p>Keeping warm in the winters doesn’t only entail protective clothing; you also need to ensure your house is well insulated. A carpet helps prevent heat loss through the floor and all gaps in the walls, windows and doors should be plugged with adequate insulation and draught-proof stripping. Curtains should be drawn after dark and</p>
<p>You also need to realize that the body loses heat primarily through a few select areas like the feet and the head, so gloves and hats/caps are a must. Scarves are a great way to make sure you keep the throat and chest area protected. Another effective way to keep out the chill is <a href="http://www.damart.co.uk/" target="_blank">thermal clothing</a> which is usually the first line of defense when it comes to keeping out the cold. Beware though, stock a fair few of these as they need to be washed often and don’t dry as quickly in the winter season.  If you’re looking for affordable winter clothing, Damart.co.uk has a newly launch website which you should check out.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The time that your budget starts to run out until the time you get your next paycheck can be too long. Most people have to stretch their budget and improvise, or save as much as possible just to be able to make ends meet. They work 2 or more jobs, some use coupons, and most cut down on their expenses. Living from paycheck to paycheck can be very tough. It’s pretty hard when you run out of funds and an emergency or urgent need arises and you don’t have extra budget to cover it up. For many years now, <a href="http://www.fastwirecash.com/" target="_blank">payday loans</a> have been helping numerous people meet their due dates and deadlines, and cover their emergency expenses.</p>
<p>Your bills, expenses, emergency needs and other similar things just will not wait until your next paycheck. You can’t postpone your shopping for groceries and all your other home necessities. There might a big sale or a great deal that you would like to take advantage of. It would be such a shame to let it slip away just because you are still waiting for you next paycheck. Get yourself a handy payday loan now and shop until you drop without waiting anymore for your next paycheck.</p>
<p>Payday loans are a thing of beauty. You need not worry about credit checks if you have bad credit, and no embarrassing interviews either. You qualify right away as long as you have a job and a bank account. Get a payday loan now and get approved anywhere from $100 up to $1000.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Face it, you can&#8217;t keep your old favorite make up forever! Expired or old cosmetics can lead to health problems and would be damaging for your skin. Yeast, bacteria or fungi may grow on the surface of your cosmetics over time. Check out the simple guidelines to tell us how long make-up actually lasts and tricks to keep them longer.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-29 aligncenter" title="Removing Makeup" src="http://slightlyoverdressed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/removing-makeup.jpg" alt="Removing Makeup" width="265" height="300" /></p>
<p>Your lipstick will last up to two years, some may even last longer. For lip and eye pencils, keep them around for two years. Always store them with the cap on and keep them well sharpened. Now, your mascara, throw it every 3 months. To avoid eye infections, keep it clean and no matter how it smells, part of taking care of your eye requires replacing it every three months.  Your moisturizer can be kept for three years. Eye shadow and compacts are good for two years. For blush, two to three years, but if powder based, eighteen months. Foundation usually lasts for a year but foundation with SPF has a shorter shelf life and should be tossed in no longer than one year.</p>
<p>Now that you have learned how long you can keep your make up, discover how to keep them a little longer. Keep your cosmetics in a cool and dry environment, away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid adding water to your make up that would dilute it. To avoid bacteria to land on your make up, never share it with anyone and avoid using your fingertips to apply it.</p>
<p>As a general rule, if your make up starts to smell funny or stinky, the color or texture doesn&#8217;t look right and it has been exposed to prolonged heat, toss ‘em!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-32 alignleft" title="Hairstyles" src="http://slightlyoverdressed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hairstyles.bmp" alt="Hairstyles" />Women have an evolving &#8216;do&#8217;s, from super long, straight stresses, short, perky bobs to curls! Haircuts can either expose your imperfections or cover them. Your hair should complement your outfit, your make up but most importantly, your face. Learn to recognize your face shape before picking a great hairstyle to suit you.</p>
<p>If you have an ideal oval face, it&#8217;s the most flexible type that goes with just about any style. You can wear long or short hair, straight, curly or very modern styles. For a round shape face, short styles are a no-no, stick to longer hair styles. Wear your hair flat on sides to give the illusion that your face is longer than it is in reality. If you have a square face, soften the strong angular lines by avoiding very short hair styles. Long hair should fall past your shoulders. Try soft wavy bangs down over your temples and never have a hair cut at jaw level .A thin and long face should choose a style with width and softness. Sleek bob is the perfect choice, ending above, or on the jaw line. Bangs will also suit you but let it fall straight across the forehead and avoid a straight long hairstyle that will make your face look much too long. Heart shape faces are flattered by short bobs that flick in under the neck. To add a width to your narrow chin, try a softer, curlier style. Feathered bangs, swept to the side would also look good on you. A pear shaped face has a wide forehead, small cheekbones and a narrow chin. Hair tied back in a ponytail would be a big mistake for you as well as short crops hairstyle. Go for a style with volume between the ears and shoulders.</p>
<p>It is possible to have a face shape which doesn&#8217;t fall into any of the mentioned category. Experiment with styles, your hair may look great today but not tomorrow, with a little creativity you can find the right look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you get older, your skin becomes dryer and it’s troublesome to see scales and cracks. Dry skin is caused by lack of sebum, an oil substance that gives your skin a shield against water evaporation. Reasons for dry skin include aging, frequent exposure to wind and sun, unhealthy eating habits, skin allergies, chemicals that draw moisture from the skin, excessive showering and scrubbing your skin, or not enough vitamins and water. Knowing what you can do about it might spare you from getting a flakey, wrinkled and itchy dry skin.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-34 aligncenter" title="Dry Skin" src="http://slightlyoverdressed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/dry-skin.jpg" alt="Dry Skin" width="300" height="293" /></p>
<p>Avoid direct exposure to sun, especially from 12 noon to 3 in the afternoon.  Bathe with comfortably warm water using a mild bar soap, avoid liquid and deodorant soaps. When you finish your bath, pat the skin dry, don&#8217;t rub it, and immediately apply moisturizer. Creams, baby oil and lotions are also effective remedies for dry skin. For swimmers, apply a light layer of petroleum jelly before going to the pool. Avoid overusing perfumes and antiperspirant. To keep the body and skin hydrated, drink lots of water. Get enough sleep, during sleep, your skin cells renew themselves. Exercise to improve blood circulation to all parts of the body and nourish the skin from within. Take vitamins regularly. Vitamin C is especially effective for skin care.</p>
<p>Dry skin can become a problem that can lead to skin infections. However, going to a doctor or a dermatologist can be avoided if you properly take care of your skin, keep your body well-hydrated, make few simple changes in your lifestyle. If skin problems persist, if your skin becomes red, swollen and painful, time to visit your doctor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-36 alignright" title="Earrings" src="http://slightlyoverdressed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/earrings.jpg" alt="Earrings" width="116" height="116" />It’s surprising what a pair of earrings can do to your look. From hoops, to dangles, to chandeliers, to studs or to droplets, you have a never ending choice. Here are a few points to make a fashion statement by choosing the right earrings for you.</p>
<p>Choose a pair of earrings that looks good for your face. A round face should bring dimension to the face by selecting sharp angled earrings, like triangles and squares. A heart-shaped face, should select earrings that are shorter, like studs. For a square face, choose round shapes. Chandeliers of medium size or large hoops are best to soften the angles of your face. Oval faces are the most versatile; all earrings will match your face.</p>
<p>Color-coordinating also plays a vital role. A gold necklace matches with gold earrings. Never mix silver and gold. The right pair of earrings can make or break an outfit. For light colored clothes, light colored diamonds, pearls or stone while gold, and for dark colored clothes, stoned or coral earrings would look great.<br />
Keep the length of your earrings in proportion to your height. Short ladies; choose drops that reach half the length of the distance between your ear lobe and your shoulder. For medium height, just like oval faces, you can choose one that suits your hair style and clothes. Tall ladies, go for drops and chandeliers due to larger distance from ear lobe to shoulder.</p>
<p>When in doubt, studs are the right and appropriate choice irrespective of your outfits, height and shape of your face. What you want is still the most important. Have fun! Don&#8217;t hesitate to try new styles. When you&#8217;ve got your eyes on a pair of earrings and it makes you feel good, by all means, wear them!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You are considered “petite” by fashion standards if you stand 5&#8242; 4&#8221; or less. Small size women have the dilemma of finding clothes that make them look taller and slimmer.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-38 aligncenter" title="Petite Fashion" src="http://slightlyoverdressed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/petite-fashion.jpg" alt="Petite Fashion" width="240" height="312" /></p>
<p>Be innovative and be ready to make adjustments. Find a tailor to alter your clothing that would fit your proportions. Rather than buying the petite styles, you can buy clothes in regular sizes then make the adjustments. Face it, manufacturers don’t make outfits with undersized ladies in mind so go for clothes that fit in hips and seat, length is always the easier part to fix.</p>
<p>Find out the tricks. Discover how to craft the illusion of height, understand prints and patterns and know how to match colors to your skin. Stay away from oversized accessories. High-heels are a must, two inches or more, will straighten your posture and give you the look of being taller. Embrace low rise pants that can elongate your torso. Oversized clothes don’t give you any shape, choose a wardrobe that suitably fits you. Short women should go for short skirts, giving the false impression of being taller. Avoid wearing thick fabrics that adds more weight to your appearance. A petite shopper should also steer clear of wearing garments with large patterns or prints with predominating effect on your tiny figure. Don’t combine light top and dark bottom (or the opposite).</p>
<p>If you have an eye for fashion, be creative with your wardrobe. Wear clothes that flatter your figure to create a fashionable look. Opt for fashion tips listed above to boost your petite frame. Your goal, is to appear tall, find the right style and dress with confidence!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s a nightmare to see the annoying bags around the eyes when you look at the mirror in the morning. Puffy eyes can result from a number of causes, including: heredity, fluid retention such as due to pregnancy, hormonal variation, weather changes, allergies or other medical conditions. Cheer up! You don&#8217;t have to go under the knife, there are a number of steps you can take to prevent and reduce under-eye puffiness.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-40 aligncenter" title="Eye Tea Bags" src="http://slightlyoverdressed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/eye-tea-bags.jpg" alt="Eye Tea Bags" width="260" height="260" /></p>
<p>You can place cooling agents on your eyes. The cucumber trick works. Use sliced raw cucumbers and place on closed eyes for over 15 minutes. You can put them in the freezer for a few minutes before use. You can also use a refrigerated gel mask or a tea bag soaked in cold water. Like the chilled cucumber, the coolness lessens circulation. You can also take a metal tablespoon, put it in the fridge or run it under cold water and place the back against your eyes.</p>
<p>Get enough sleep. Puffiness under the eye is the most common symptom of lack of sleep. Aim for seven to eight hours of sleep a night. And when you go to bed, elevate your head using several pillows to prevent fluid from settling under your eyes.</p>
<p>Drink plenty of water! People with puffy eyes are usually dehydrated. You can also try eye exercises. Move both eyes in a circular motion clockwise, counter clockwise then in all directions.<br />
Reduce the salt in your diet. Your body retains more fluid if you have a high intake of sodium which is advisable not only for your eyes, but also for your health in general.<br />
If puffiness is persistent or severe, consult your doctor. You may have other conditions associated with puffy eyes.</p>
