Slowly but Surely: The Only Plan you’ll Need for a Hassle-free Career Change

You feel stuck in your current job, right? I know. You wouldn't be reading if you love your job and you think it’s the most awesome thing to do for the rest of your life. But kidding aside, I know how you feel. I was once there too – together with a couple of family members and friends so it’s a pretty normal thing.
2013 Calendar

But you shouldn't take this matter lightly. Leaving your concerns to the expert tips and tricks of human resource books might not give to most suitable solution. Remember that every individual is unique so you definitely need to find that answer to your specific problem.

Changing careers is a leap of faith. Leaving a stable job to find a new pursuit is often a necessary risk you’d have to take in order to get to a better place. But since you’ll take leap, make sure to do it carefully or you’ll get injured. Yes, I’m talking about life here – because one wrong decision you make can bury you into a deeper hole.

Today, I’m going to tell you about The Plan which you can carry out in the first four months of 2013 to make sure that you only make the right decisions for your career change. Though you can do all of these in just a month, I suggest you take your time because from experience, my haste created much waste.

So save yourself from further trouble and take things slowly but surely. Here’s what you can do on…

January Determine whether there is an actual need for change. Would you still feel miserable if you worked for another company in the same industry?

Many individuals rush to think that leaving their current career and changing it completely is the only solution to the burning feeling of unhappiness that they feel for their current job. Given that you are unsatisfied, it is best to find out where this feeling is coming from. Keep in mind that there are tons of things in your current job that can drive you to lose interest in work. Problems can range from having bad office politics, an evil boss or simply not having a water cooler.

Before you bid your current career goodbye, make sure that it’s the one you want to leave. Not just your boss or the company that you are working for.

February Find the direction you’d like to pursue. If you’re sure that being in the corporate could kill you in the next 24 hours, decide on what you’d actually like to pursue. I hope that being a beach bum or a couch potato is not one of them.

When thinking about a new route to take, looking at your skills, hobbies and shelved dreams could be of great help. However, you have to be realistic with what you want at this point. You can’t be just be a hot rock star over night so you might want to keep that dream in the drawer if you’re not willing to work for it.

Mixing your dream with reality is the right way to go. If you want to be a full time artist or an entrepreneur, make sure that your resources can support you well throughout your transition until you make it.

March How much do you want it?

Now that you know where you want to go, do you really want to go there? How much time, effort and commitment are you willing to give to pursue your new goal? If your answer is still half-baked, you’d better stay where you are at the moment until you find something that you’d like to pursue.

This could be especially difficult if you have a family to fend for or bills to pay. Don’t forget to consider other important factors in your life before you make that big decision.

April Create an action plan. Write concrete steps on how you’ll arrive at that new destination. Think of it as a road trip that you’re planning to take to get away from your current toxic career. How would you get there?

During this time, you would like to think about the training's, seminars and certifications that you might need to successfully shift gears. You can also create a timeline of events to make sure that you don’t fall into a procrastination rut where you’ll aimlessly wander around until you get nowhere. Remember, go at great lengths to specify what you intend to do so as not to lose sight of the prize. It would help to write actual information on the training programs that you need as well as the other tasks that you need to do including research among many other things. Resource books on the field can provide you with tons of information.

Cool Celebrations: How to Turn Your Thanksgiving Dinner into a Fabulous Fashion Theme Party

Celebrate this year’s Thanksgiving in style by hosting a fashion themed dinner. Get your wedge boots ready to walk talk and proud this coming holiday as you show your love and appreciation to the people who matter most in your life.
Cool Celebrations: How to Turn Your Thanksgiving Dinner into a Fabulous Fashion Theme Party

Today, I’m sharing with you tons of practical tips for a fabulous Thanksgiving. Read up on the useful tips below.

Choosing the Theme

Having a fashioned themed party can be exciting. But unlike going for a luau or a movie theme, fashion parties need you to be a little more specific which makes it even more fun. There are tons of sub-themes that you can choose from.

Two of the commonly used chic party themes are awards night and the fashion week. Both events are filled with glamour and they can surely lend this glitz to your Thanksgiving dinner. You could also go for unconventional ones like a Lady Gaga theme where guests can take a walk on the fashion wild side with their chunky wedge boots.

Keep in mind that when selecting a fashion theme, your top consideration should be your guests. It is best to take note of the age of the attendees so you can throw the party that everyone enjoyed.

Party Basics

This includes the event details and the invitations you’d be sending to spread the word out. To get the feel of a true fashion event, it is best that you reflect common practices in the industry. Awards night and fashion week after-parties always take place at night which makes them a perfect theme for your Thanksgiving dinner. Follow through with other practices like sending sleek VIP invitations to your guests. This would allow them to get a feel of your theme that would surely get them all excited.

Food and drinks

Give your guest the A-list treatment by getting their stomach’s fill in a sumptuous multi-course dinner. Serving a 5-course meal is easier than it seems. Just make sure to have an appetizer, salad, soup, main course and dessert ready at the dinner table to start the feast.

When serving an elaborate meal, remember that being creative pays off. There are tons of ways for you to get fresh ingredients, good tasting wine and turkey at more reasonable price. Using coupons and is a great way to save a couple of bucks. Don’t forget to hunt for deals way before the Thanksgiving time rolls in to make sure that you get ingredients in stock. Don’t forget to wear a pair of trusty boots when moving around to shop.

Another way to spend wisely on food during the holiday season is to have your guest bring in some of the food items especially if this is an intimate occasion between family and friends. Sharing the responsibility can surely lighten up your load.

Fun activities

Like what I said earlier, you don’t have to spend thousands of dollars just to have a memorable fashion-themed Thanksgiving dinner. Instantly bring in the paparazzi to your party by assigning one of your guests as the official photographer and dress the part. Having him or her roam around the room and signal people to take their posses can surely create a celebrity feel.

You can also incorporate fashion show at the beginning of the party just to liven up the atmosphere. Towards the end, have an award giving ceremony to keep the spirit of Thanksgiving alive.

Are you celebrating your Thanksgiving in style? Let me know how you've been preparing to throw your Hollywood style party. Leave me a comment below or a link to your pictures of the fashion themed party. I’d love to know all about them so keep ‘em coming!

Yes, No! Celebrities in Purple Fashion

Purple is a pretty funky color to wear. Unfortunately, because the fun color is not easy to partner and match with the usual outfits, not everyone can wear it on an ordinary day. Even celebrities, who have all the money in the world, still make some awful red carpet mistakes with their purple fashion jewelry and outrageous matching outfits. On the other hand, there are also other celebrities who make it easy to wear purple.

To get ideas on how to wear purple the right way, here are a few inspirations from celebrities and why they worked or didn't work.
Victoria Beckam in purple

What works: There’s never really been a time when Victoria Beckham wore something that didn't look good. And despite the fact that she’s changed styles so much in the past few years, we still cannot dismiss this purple and silver outfit she wore a few years back. Compared to her style today, this is definitely a downgrade. However, the outfit still made her look chic, with only one purple Swarovski ring and a matching purple handbag. The heavy cleavage may be a little too much. Despite that, the former Spice Girl still rocked the look. Cheap? Never. It just made Victoria Beckham look many years younger than she truly is.
purple coat

What doesn't work: Well, where should we begin? Maybe it’s the fact that her dark red lipstick really doesn't match the purple dress. Maybe it’s because her dark coat doesn't do anything for her dark, purple dress. Or the fact that her neck is just brimming with accessories. Really, you should never overwhelm your neck with too many accessories. The dress already had sheer detailing around the neck and because she decided to wear two more necklaces, it only made her look dowdy and overcrowded. The same goes for her earrings. Because she had too many accessories on her neck, the earrings aren't even noticeable anymore. One word for this outfit? Crowded.
Natalie Portman

What works: Just like Mrs. Beckham, there’s never really a time when Natalie Portman looked bad. In fact, she just keeps on looking better and better every day. In this outfit where she wore a glorious purple gown with an appropriate cleavage, Portman was simply stunning. Not only that, she accentuated her outfit with a matching purple fringe earring set that highlighted her upper body even more. Because she chose to keep it simple in a long dress and a side-swept hairstyle with minimum fashion jewelry, Portman ended up looking classy and sophisticated.

What doesn't work: Despite the fact that Fergie definitely looks beautiful in this picture, it seemed as if the light purple color of her dress just wasn't complimenting the shades of her skin. When you choose the dress to wear to an event, you also have to consider the specific shade of your dress, otherwise, you end up looking a little too tan. Do be careful in choosing a dress to display your cleavage though, you wouldn't want people to think that your dress is too tight.

How to Save Money on Your Wedding Outfit

Who says you have to spend more just to get hitched? In fact, you can easily make every expense go away just by getting married in the nearby church – no attendees, no frills, just you and your loved one. Married, but not broke. But of course, why create a memorable day when no one else will actually remember it?
How to Save Money on Your Wedding Outfit

Weddings are important. But this doesn't mean that you have to spend all of your savings on it. Just because your wedding dress or bridal jewelry sets isn't branded doesn't mean that it’s not beautiful. You can still look your best on your special day on a limited budget. Here’s a few tips on achieving a budget, but beautiful outfit.

1. Buy your wedding dress early. Did you know that there’s a wedding season? Yes, in fact there are months when there are more weddings and brides to dress. You might want to avoid these months because you’ll end up paying twice for your dress. June is a pretty popular month to get married on so if you’re looking for a dress on those months, you will end up overspending. Get your dress a few months before. This will help you avoid all the rush and keep you under budget.

2. Have your dress tailored. If you cannot afford expensive designers, have someone tailor your dress especially for you. Several small-time tailors can actually design and create beautiful dresses as well. Don’t be too overwhelmed with expensive designers who are known everywhere for their beautiful dresses. Small-time tailors can make dresses without the hefty price tag. Besides, if you buy branded wedding dresses, you’ll end up wearing the brand, more than the dress.

3. Get inspirations from old styles. Old styles are less complicated. They are simple, but traditional so you can pick from them if you want a cheaper rate. Don’t worry, you won’t be too out of style. Some of the classic dress designs are starting to come back again. Mix classic styles into modern wedding dresses. You’ll end up with a beautiful dress, minus the expensive price tag.

4. Buy jewelry online. Saving money on dresses can be a little hard. But when it comes to bridal jewelry, you have the option to save a lot of money. Jewelry can be bought nearly anywhere nowadays. Go online and check out various jewelry shops. You’ll find that the prices online are much cheaper. While you can’t see the jewelry for yourself, you’ll enjoy looking at them through pictures. The best thing about buying online? There are literally hundreds of different jewelry stores. Not only will you get inspiration for your accessories, you can also buy cheaper jewelry at the same time.

5. Wait for sales. If you’re in a rush to get married, you might not be able to use this tip. But if your wedding is still in a few months, you can always wait for a grand sale to happen before you make your move. Sales can give you huge discounts so you’ll be able to save a lot of money.

10 Characteristics of Real Diamond Jewelry

Have you decided to get your own piece of diamond jewelry? Got a little tired of your usual Cubic Zirconia fashion jewelry that you decided to buy your own sparkling piece of jewelry?
diamond ring
But before you enjoy your diamonds, make sure that you have a real one at hand. It can be pretty hard to tell a real diamond from a fake one. Even if you've got an untrained eye, here are some ways you can tell if you have a real diamond.

Everything You Need to Know About Diamonds

1. Hard – diamonds are the hardest metals on earth. If your piece breaks at the slight drop on cement, then you’re definitely harboring a fake one. Hopefully you didn't pay too much for it, otherwise, finding out that you have a fake one can be totally devastating.

2. Different colors – the rarest diamonds are colored pink, yellow or blue. If the jeweler says that your piece is rare but not in those colors, you might want to ask for their explanation.

3. It can scratch anything – since diamonds are the hardest metals on earth, this also means that it can scratch just about anything. Test it on a piece of glass, if it makes a scratch and does not break, then you might just have a real piece at hand.

4. Does not have clear perception – if you have a real diamond, then there’s a possibility that you won’t be able to see through it. Fake diamonds are made out of glass so if you put the diamond over a printed piece of paper, you can see the letters clearly. On the other hand, a real diamond will break off any reflection from the prints.


5. Shades of gray – a real diamond can only portray reflections with gray shades. But if you’re holding a fake diamond, the reflections that come off it will be colorful.

6. Cleared fog – try breathing on your diamond. If you end up seeing the fog on your diamond, then it’s probably fake. A real diamond would've dispersed the fog even before you turned to look at it.

7. Reflection of light – a real diamond can reflect light no matter which side you test the light on. If one of the sides of your diamonds seems to deflect any shine, then you probably have a fake diamond.

8. Cannot be heated – a real diamond disperses heat as quickly as it does to fog. Try heating up your diamond for about 30 seconds. If the diamond remains hot, then it’s fake. A real diamond will not heat up nor will you feel it hot.

9. Scratches – although it’s pretty rare to find a perfect diamond, a real one would not have as many scratches inside as it does for fake diamonds. Real diamonds cannot be easily scratches so it’s rare that you find a diamond with too many scratches or scuffles.

10. Joints – when you do your tests, make sure that you test all sides. Sometimes, sellers connect real diamonds to fake diamonds at the bottom. To find out, throw your diamond in a glass of water. If it floats, then your diamond is either fake or it has been connected to a fake diamond. So, do you have the real deal? Or did you just get scammed out of your jewelry?

Celebrity Inspired Holiday Fashion

No matter what occasion it may be, I’m sure you’ll still find many reasons to go after a celebrity’s stylish look. After all, they are the trendsetter’s of our generations. Now while Labor Day can be pretty depressing signaling the official end of summer, it doesn't mean that everyone will stop feeling the summer heat. So, in light of this special occasion, let’s see what celebrities don on this special day. Are they wearing white? Maybe some patriotic fashion jewelry? Check out and see if these stars look hot or not after Labor Day.

Heidi Klum – Formal

So technically, the tradition is to wear white after Labor Day. But I’m guessing there are some who break this rule from time to time. Now if you’re one of the unfortunate to have work on the last day of summer (can you spell bummer?), this is a good outfit to wear. Wear a white, fun jumpsuit with a very classy cleavage and a chic coat to cover up and confirm your formal wear. Spice up your outfit with a pair of blazing red high heels and you’re ready to go. I do think that Heidi could’ve used some hoop earrings or maybe a necklace. Without accessories, her catchy red shoes overshadowed her coat and plunging neckline.

Taylor Swift - Casual

Everyone’s favorite country singer went out last year wearing this blue sundress on Labor Day. A little too 4th of July? Of course not! Even if 4th of July is definitely a day for patriotism, it doesn’t mean that Labor Day doesn’t deserve the same treatment. In fact, this dress is perfect for the end of summer – catching up to the last rays of the season, enjoying a little sunlight. Fun and girly – two words which pretty much explains Taylor Swift’s whole wardrobe. Not that we’re complaining. She does have pretty classy sense of style. Especially now that she’s dating someone from a very important family in the US (ehem, Conor Kennedy).

Kristen Stewart – Summer Casual

Kristen Stewart

Okay. So, there’s a lot of things wrong in what’s she’s wearing here. But when she wore this, let’s just say she probably didn't have a stylist yet. I included this in my list because it’s a pretty good combination of laid back and summer style. Her white midriff shirt is very summer-y, although I do recommend a good (possibly black colored) necklace to accessorize her plain top. Her bracelet is also definitely pretty and elegant. Her pants are laid back and her shoes are pretty much as summer-y as a pair of shoes can get. But really? Her best fashion accessory in this picture – she’s actually smiling!

Rihanna – Summer

Rhianna

Nothing like a sexy, white swimsuit to finish off your summer, right? That’s right, Rihanna! You go, girl! Our favorite pop singer looks happy in this sexy, white swimsuit. Her chains? Excellent addition to her swimwear. Her earrings? Great addition. If there’s someone who knows how to end a season, it’s definitely one of our best party gals.

Guide to Choosing Necklaces for Different Outfits

Going on a hunt to buy different types of necklaces? Ready to make your debut with a new outfit? There’s definitely no better way to finish your look than with the right accessories. In order to avoid stepping out with the right outfit and the mismatched jewelry, here are some pointers to help you put together the perfect outfit.

Beaded Necklaces

The thing with beaded necklaces is that they are quite noticeable whenever you wear them. Because of the beads, you can easily create a design just by wearing this accessory over a plain outfit. The best time to wear beaded necklaces is if you want to spice up a plain shirt or blouse. Wear a beaded necklace over a white round neck. No matter how simple your round neck looks, a beaded necklace will always succeed in making it look elegantly fashionable. On the other hand, if you’re more into the boho-chic look, you can always choose to downplay your outfit. Wear a simple tank top with a long, flowing skirt. Finish off the outfit with a necklace with smaller beads. This way, your necklace only emphasizes your boho-look, but it won’t outshine your whole outfit.

Pearl Necklaces

Necklaces made out of pearls are pretty precious to wear to any casual event. Instead, use this elegant fashion jewelry for formal events. If you’re wearing a low-cut dress, accentuate with a pearl necklace. Just make sure that your dress doesn’t have any detailed designs on the chest area so that it doesn’t fight for attention with your pearls. The reason your pearls are there is to add detail and elegancy to your formal outfit. White pearl necklaces are best worn with dark colored dresses or outfits.

Long Chains

Now onto the more casual side of wearing necklaces. Once upon a time, men were the only ones who wore necklaces with long chains and extravagant pendants. Today, even women take interest in those kinds of necklaces, especially when they’re attempting to downplay their casual outfit. Long chains with big pendants are best worn when you’re wearing your best jeans. Whether it may be pants, jean shorts or even jump shorts, long chains are your best bet at accessorizing the outfit. Keep your top simple, though, nothing too fancy or you’ll beat the purpose of wearing long chains.

If you’re open to wearing see-through blouses, these are also perfect to match with jean shorts and a long chained necklace. Be careful on the chains you buy, however. You don’t want them staining your best white blouse.

Silver necklaces Long chains give an outfit a rather casual, casual look. But if you’re aiming to sophisticate your casual look, then silver necklaces will definitely work. Unlike long chains that will reach up to your stomach, depending on its maximum length, traditional silver necklaces are meant to lie just above your chest, enough to make a perfect V-neck look sophisticated and chic, even with jean shorts.

Remember though, fashion isn’t about having many stylish accessories. It’s in how you handle your outfit and accessories – no matter how many pieces you’re actually wearing.

Blue Moon

Did you get to catch the blue moon last August 31st? A blue moon only happens when a second full moon occurs in the same month. Many say that it’s pretty rare occurrence. I’m just so happy to get my ankle boots on just in time to rush out and view its magnificence.
blue moon

For August of this year, the first full moon occurred on August 1st. A Harvard University astronomer named Avi Loeb said that the moon is by far more important to lovers, literature and folklore than science itself.

For the mean time, here are 5 of the things you should wear for your Blue Moon date a couple of years from now:

1. Comfortable outfit

Thinking of wearing that tight body-hugging dress for your first date? Or are you going for that sky high stiletto just so you can show of your elongated legs? Though this ensemble may look flattering to you – does it feel that way? If not, skip it.

Chances are you’d be too concerned with pulling your dress here in there just because you've become too conscious of how you look. Also, high heels are fine – just make sure that you’re comfortable wearing them for long hours. You might also like to skip the stiletto if it’ll make you taller than your date. That’s so not an ego booster.

To get the perfect mix of style and comfort, go for ballet flats or boots. Always remember that the key to looking great in any outfit is being comfortable. When you have nothing else to worry about your outfit, you can certainly focus on making your date fall for you.

2. Light make-up

Natural looks work best for dates especially when you’re just getting to know each other. Wear make-up sparingly to avoid having to do touch-ups every now and then that may ruin the momentum of your date. If possible, only use make-up to play up your assets or to slightly cover up your problem areas.

3. Loads of Confidence

This is definitely a little something that money can’t buy. Though confidence may be at varying levels for everyone, make sure to bring yours especially on dates.

Dressing up comfortable and knowing that you look good can actually boost your confidence. If you’re still unsure of the date, just remember that you’re as worthy and interesting like everybody else. Hold your head up high and let that golden ball sunshine radiate from within you.

4. A Beautiful Smile

I really like the quotation by Gabriel Garcia Marquez which goes this way “Never stop smiling, not even when you are sad, because you never know who might fall in love with your smile.” Isn't sweet? I know it is. A smile is certainly one of the best accessories any girl can wear all the time – and it doesn't cost a dime. Flash your smile any moment you can. Though you know who might fall for you on that date, do it anyway to seal the deal. Also, don’t forget to let that smile show especially if your date gives you a ton of reason to do so.

5. Yourself

Many girls forget about this due to extreme excitement and anticipation. I say keep calm and carry on. Dates are not the time to role play. I’m pretty sure you would want that guy to fall for who you really are. So just relax, smile and enjoy the company of your date. Don’t worry if you’re clumsy or you think you’re weird – if he’s really attracted to you, he’ll find it cute.

blue moon

I must say it’s a pretty romantic thing to see such a rare beauty with the one you love. If you didn’t get to see it this time, the Blue Moon is said to come around on July 2015. You surely have enough time to find that special someone to share this moment with.

  • Sweater dresses are great for winter. These pieces keep you warm and look every bit professional making it appropriate for your office wardrobe Wear classic pieces anew. Look for twists and surprises like a new cut, a plunging neckline or the use of lace.

Here are more specific points you should remember when dressing for the corporate world:


Skirt 101
  • Mini skirts are not appropriate for work
  • When wearing a mid-length skirt that falls a little about your knee, it is best to pair it with flats of low heels
  • Pencil skirts are classic and versatile In wearing long skirts to work, make sure that you hit the right length. This should be somewhere near the ankle.
  • Having your skirt fall midway not look tasteful for everyone

Accessorizing 101
  • Adding on a scarf to your outfit is a fun and easy way to change your look
  • Acceptable jewelry pieces vary from one workplace to another. But as a general rule, it should be kept simple and at a minimum.
  • Companies that perform creative work like in advertising or the show business can allow for the wearing of flashier statement pieces.

The Coolest Fashion Jewelry Ever! Inspired by Miley Cyrus

Famous. Bold. Daring. Stylish. These are just 4 words to describe the newly engaged former Disney star. Pretty far from her squeaky clean image back in the days, Miley Cyrus has definitely stirred herself from the young, Disney star she used to portray. Whether her controversy came from weird poses in pictures, questionable activities, “WTF is she wearing” moments and who she’s kissing at the moment, she is definitely one who just cannot shy away from getting attention to herself.

While she may have a few negative issues, she is definitely one with a bold, daring and stylish fashion sense. And it may be one of the reasons why she’s still famous at all. Besides her adorable, daring fashion style recently, she also sports some of the best fashion jewelry among young Hollywood stars of today.

Layered Necklaces
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth Engaged

Remember what we said about getting the attention of everyone around her? Well, she definitely has the talent for it. This is what layered necklaces are for – getting attention. While she also has the talent of putting together a stylish outfit just enough to top it off with a layered necklace, you also have to admit she does it well enough to catch just the right attention from the fashion police. And you really can’t blame her for sporting those layered necklaces. They really are an incredible set of accessories for her outfit.
Cocktail Rings

cubic zirconia rings

Just like every other girl in the world, rings kind of matter – even if they are not meant to mean anything as important as an engagement ring. When it comes to fashion, however, it’s important that you wear only the accessories that will emphasize or highlight the outfit you wear, even if it only takes up a portion of your finger.

This is why cocktail rings matter a lot. Cocktail rings are not as big or expensive as Miley Cyrus’ engagement may have been, but this special ring definitely looks like it cost her a few hundred bucks. Of course. We don’t expect anything less from this former Disney star. With tiny crystals surrounding the set of nature stones, she is definitely bound to attract a lot of attention.

Multiple Bangles

Just like her bundle of layered necklaces, Miley Cyrus also has a penchant for wearing multiple bangles or bracelets. Did you know that wearing multiple bangles has a few rules to ensure that it will look well? The colors shouldn't clash with each other. And they shouldn’t over-shine the outfit you’re wearing. Former Disney queen and fiancĂ© of The Hunger Games Liam Hemsworth seems to have this trick mastered. In fact, she really knows how to put together her bracelets whenever she goes out into the red carpet. Check out this set of bracelets that she wore with her blue, shiny dress. Hot or not? We vote hot. Because despite the fact that she wears several colors in her set of bracelets, her dress still manages to complete her look. Her accessories are just there to make it look even more stylish.
