Dealing With... #3

This dealing with is going to be about feeling pretty. A very small percentage of us women would call them self pretty. Not in a arrogant way but just in a normal way.  This is very shocking.  So what can we do about this? It's very simple. Start with yourself and encourage others. Start working on yourself. When you feel pretty there is one women less who doesn't like herself. Also give complements to others. It maybe doesn't mean as much to you for saying but it feels good to hear something positive.  Enough with the intro lets get on with the tips to getting to feel pretty. 

1. Positivity.  Stay or become positive. If you are positive change is gonna come. In a good way. When you are negative you see everything worser then they are. This is a very bad place for your self image! If you can't get positive about how you look right now. Be positive about how your going to be in the future. It's a great place to start your journey to feeling pretty. 

2. Make a list.  This sounds bad but it's really great! First write the things what you wanna change. Pick three things out! This list is to make clear for yourself witch points you wanna work on. Not to get depressed! Then write the things you like about yourself. On this list you have to write at least six things. This is the list for when you have a little dip. When you feel insecure you can see the points more clearly what you like about yourself. 

3. Make a plan. This step is very important! Take the tree things and make a plan how you going to work on them. For instants is one of the points "loosing weight": What are you going to do? Join a gym or take dance classes? What I would recommend are taking dance classes. Its fun and it doesn't feel like working out. Also it will build your energy levels up so working you will be fun. I know it sounds wearied but I mean is you will feel better and then you will get more energy to go to the gym. Maybe you have skin issues. Make a plan what you can do. Are you going to a beautician or a doctor. Things like that are what you need to make clear. Make sure your plan is realistic. Don't give yourself a deadline or a clear goal. It's not about reaching a goal. Its about feeling good about yourself. This can happen before you reach "your goal". About the weight thing. You can feel a lot better about yourself when you even loose one pound. There is no need to say you have to loose so much. 

4. Ask help.  Don't be afraid to ask help. It is nice to have a little backup. It can be a friend who knows you and can support you. Or it can be a professional who helps you to work on the things you want to work on. Encouragement is very important so when you have a little dip you have some one to fall back on. 

5. Do it!  It is easy to hate things about yourself when you don't do something about it. Its important to do something about it if you don't like the situation. it is the only way to change  

6. Embrase it!  Accept the changes. Change needs time. Give yourself the time you need. Also if you don't see something happening! It is not realistic to think changes comes at the speed of a eye blink. Embrace the fact its going to happen.  It will happen when the time is right for you!

Dealing With... #2

I love makeup, but sometimes it can be a little bit scary. For me makeup is like clothes. There are so many choices and it all about choosing whats right for your skin type and color.  There are couple essentials I think everyone should have. I believe if you have these five things you have a great look and you don't need anything els. Only if you want to!  The brands and products I recommend are mostly Hi-in. Only because I think they are really investments. I'm not saying other cheaper products are less good. Only for these basic products I prefer the brands I show you guys.  So here goes my 5 products:

1. Tinted moisturizer. Most people don't need a full coverage foundation. However the most people use this instead of the tinted moisturizer. Whats nice of this is you nurture the skin at the same time even out your skin a little bit. Your skin can breath better! I know it sounds weird but it's true! The importent thing is letting you skin look healthy and it is not so remarkable that you have makeup on. The ones I like: Laura Mercier & Bobbi Brown (Just click on the brand!)

  2. Concealer.  This is the best thing ever! I think i don't need to explain the concept of foundation.  What I recommend is to have a couple different concealers. I personally like to have one shade lighter under my eyes. It gives you a fresher look. Also its good to have one for little spots to blend them out. If you do this is a foundation certainly not needed!  The ones I like: Inglot & Bobbi Brown

3. Bronzer/Blush combo Oke I cheat a little bit. This piece is all about FIVE products but there are kind of six. I hope you forgive me! It is a bronzer/blush combo. Bronzer is great to shape your face. We have all places you want to look slimmer For instants your chin. Also your cheeks It easy to shape them for a nicer contours of your face. The blush is the most fun. It brings a little bit pink back in your face. A bright pink is always good. But for a basic pink I recommend a color what match your natural lips. This is the most natural and you can alway build it up!  The ones I like: NARS & MAC (Just a bronzer, limited edition)

  4. Eye kit.  The eye kit is I think an essential piece of makeup. It is compact and you can make different eye styles. If you choose a pallet make sure you have diverse colors: So from light to dark. So you can make looks for day and night!  For the basics I recommend brown shades. It's very handy if your eye kit has a dark color if you make your brush wet you can use it as a liner. It is softer than using a liquid liner so it looks more natural. The ones I like: Bobbi Brown & NARS (Just a bronzer, limited edition)

  5. Lips color. A great lip color is hard to find. This is very personal. Some say there lips dry out with some brand, others love it. I try to find a lip balm what has a color. What I will say is that a color issn't necessary. Nice nurtured lips are perfect with a natural look.  The ones I like: NARS & Bobbi Brown    This was it! With these 5 elements you can make a great natural look! It is improrant to know how to work with the makeup as well! But most of al... Have fun with it!  XX

Frank a.k.a Zeeman

Amsterdam fashion week was a victim of an guerilla marketing campaign. The brand "Zeeman" is a dutch textile company who sell there products for a cheap price. A brand what you wouldn't expect on amsterdam fashion week. But there they where under the name FRANK. With an clear mission: Show the world that nice cloths don't have to cost much!  There where seven people who new the true identity of "frank". This project started in January 2011 when an publicity agency came with the idea. They contacted Frank Kungl the designer who made the line exclusively for Zeeman.  I only can say it's impressive! 

About the clothes they are very wearable and nice clean cuts. The pieces are greatly shaped for the woman figure. It gives an feminine look without any effort and also the whole collection has a nice layback feeling. Looking great, just simply done. In this case less is more!

Overall I think it's a great stunt. But the best part, the line was great! It isn't something what will blow your socks of. Just a quit nicely collection. It is something what looks great on every women and should be in every ones closet. At least one piece!

THE SWEETEST... APPS!

One thing you need to know about me... I have a view addictions. One of them is my iPhone. I really love my iphone. The main reasons are the apps. Today I will show you a couple of my sweetest apps! Well here it goes...

This is my all time favorite app. 22TRACKS is a app version of the site www.22tracks.com. The site is simply said a giant play list. 22 DJ's, 22 genres and 22 tracks (per playlist.)

   It doesn't matter what genre you like, they have the best music for you. And you hear it first on 22TRACKS. The app is a great extension of the site. It's easy to use.  Vincent Reinders and Gilles de Smit are the big brains behind this. And a little bit my heroes. The next step is making a app for the MacBook. So you can direct the site with pause/play functions on your keyboard. The app costs 2,25 USD / 1,59 EURO'S.  

...

IncrediBooth is a app that I use as much as I can! Create authentic photo booth pics but on your modern phone. I like it cause it's more fun than making normal pictures with your friends. The different camera filters give you options to make pics with effects. 

  The app control is very nice. It takes ten seconds to figure this app out.  Down site: There are a view bugs in this app. Sometimes the app will shut down, and it will shut down when you try to activate it. I hope there will be a update for this. The app costs 0,99 USD / 0,79 EURO'S

.....

  ShakeItPhoto is the most awesome picture app. It is very simple. This app turns your pictures in to polaroids. You know the old instant pictures. The picture gets a old feel to it and the famous polaroid border.   

It doesn't only turn your pictures in to polaroids but you can also make a instant Polaroid picture though the app.  The funniest thing the app is when you take a picture or choose one, you can shake it for real like a Polaroid picture. When you shake it the picture will appear.  The app cost 2,25 USD /1,59 EURO 

....

This app is the most practical one. Dragon Dictation is a app you can use if you don't want to type. It simply record your voice and translate it in to words on the screen.  The app gives you the opportunity to speak in many languages. You can copy the text you made or send it as a text massage. The other options are: E-mail FaceBook and Twitter. 

   It works quite good! You can't prevent it to make some little mistakes. But it is easy to remove words or just add couple The best thing of the app is: IT'S FREE!

Sleeping On The Job of the Day: According to the makers of “Ostrich,” the pillow/cushion/bed/garment hybrid sports a “soothing cave-like interior” that “shelters and isolates our head and hands” to create a work-friendly “micro environment in which to take a warm and comfortable power nap at ease.”

Ostrich happily doubles (or quintuples) as a plush coffin for when you inevitably asphyxiate.
