Italian Designer Handbags – A Beginners Buying Guide

Posted by admin | Uncategorized | Sunday 23 March 2008 3:39 pm

When you want to compliment your wardrobe while making a bold fashion statement, Italian designer handbags are the perfect accessory. Whether you are searching for evening bags or everyday handbags, there is a wide selection of Italian designer handbags online, from which to choose, from handbags, sturdy totes, stylish purses and more to suit your personal needs.

Although there are various options, it is difficult at time to buy an Italian designer bag today. First, you must consider the multitude of Italian brands and style of bags available. Do not be fooled by the creation of online marketers who pass off fakes as being authentic. These types of online sites call their entire stock of designer knock offs as being authentic and you pay too much money for a fake and not even know it. We can help guide you through the jungle of Italian designer bags, while helping you find true authentic bags.

Here you will get a small Italian Designer Handbags buyers guide.

Functional Handbags provide ample room for groceries, documents, workout gear and much more. Examples of functional bags are:

- Briefcases

- Duffle Bags

- Messenger Bags

- Diaper Bags

An exceptionally beautiful briefcase is the Fontanelli Black Ostrich Stamped Leather Briefcase.

Everyday Handbags allow room for makeup and accessories, cell phone and other items you may need while being away from home and these include:

- Shoulder Bags

- Shopper Bags

- Satchels

- Doctors Bags

- Hobo Bags

When it comes to using an everyday handbag, the Nuovedive Front Pocket Italian Calf Leather Satchel is essential.

When you are out for an evening, you can dress up your eveningwear with an Evening Handbag, such as baguettes or a sophisticated clutch. You will be thrilled with the Roccobarocco Evening Baguettes.

You can make a true fashion statement with an Iconic Italian Designer Handbag. These stylish signature bags compliment a polished look. If you are looking for something practical and stylish, a Gucci Horsebit Hobo is perfect, since the hobo is relaxed, slouchy and features bold metal hardware. It is a perennial favorite of everyday wear.

According to fashion editors and Hollywood starlets, the Balenciaga Le Dix Motorcycle is the current popular bag to use. This is a hard to find bag, seen on such celebrity trendsetters such as Sienna Miller and Kate Moss. This bag has just the right streetwise flair, while details define the distressed leather, tasseled zippers, double-rolled handles and a few well-placed buckles.

Once you determine which style of handbag you prefer as well as your favorite brand, you will face choosing the difference between buying an actual Italian designer bag or making a knowing purchase of a designer knock-off handbag and being lied to by a marketer of such bags.

Keep in mind the old adage of if it is to good to be true, it more than likely is not, or you get what you pay for hold true when selecting Italian designer handbags. Know that the lovely Gucci Horsebit Hobo you have found in an online auction with the Gucci tag, beginning at $149.00, is not authentic. No one would offer an authentic Gucci Horsebit Hobo for that amount of money.

From whom you purchase, your italian leather handbag is extremely important. For instance, Nieman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman sell authentic Gucci and Prada handbags, although they do not come cheap. You should visit Forzieri, a charming Italian designer luxury shop. Select your Coach Bag from their online store, where authenticity is a guarantee.

Always purchase a bag from those who offer a money-back guarantee policy. If there is not money back guarantee, you will know their bags are not the real thing. Even if you find your dream bag, you should not purchase it there, since there are others who are reputable.

The best way to protect yourself from fraud is to educate yourself before making a purchase.

Do not be mislead to believe that only authentic bags include serial numbers and holograms. Those who fraudulently make money from their knock off bags, stay abreast all the changes of the authentic bags. More importantly, do you know an authentic hologram when you find a bag on sale anywhere? Do you know whether the serial number is on the metal plate or embossed inside the bag itself? Do you know if the Gucci name imprint is on the hardware of an authentic Italian designer handbag?

Knowing what you are looking at while making your selection increases the chance of buying an authentic handbag.

Dressing For Your Body Shape – Petite

Posted by admin | Uncategorized | Friday 14 March 2008 3:38 pm

If you want to always look your best then being aware of your body shape and the types of clothes that suit you is absolutely essential. One of the most common reasons for making clothing mistakes stems from not being aware of what suits your figure or taking advice from someone who doesn’t have your best interests at heart, for example, shop assistants.

No matter what your shape, there are some fundamental guidelines for enhancing and flattering your figure.

Petite women are a special category, and being classed as petite is more than simply being very short. As a petite you are most likely to have a balanced vertical body type, which means that at the hip line, you are almost perfectly divided in half. However, you are also a combination of the following features:

  • You are under 164cm (5′5″) in height
  • You are short in the mid-body (from the fullest part of the bust to the waist, and waist to hip)
  • You are under size 16
  • You have a small to medium bone structure

Petite women therefore have special requirements when it comes to fashion.

As a true petite, you will look your best in wear specialist petite clothing because these garments have been designed with your particular needs in mind. Petite clothing is cut narrower in the shoulders and shorter in the mid-section. The sleeves, pant legs and skirts are also shorter. This means that they will suit your proportions perfectly and are less likely to need expensive alterations.

As well, petite clothing includes smaller details to suit your smaller height and bone structure. This includes lapel widths, buttons and belts, as well as small scale patterns and jewellery. Anything large or chunky will overwhelm a petite woman.

You can also use vertical design lines to make you appear taller and slimmer. The most powerful vertical line runs down the centre of the body, effectively dividing it in half. Vertical lines like stripes have the most impact on height when they are narrow and placed close together. The wider the stripe and the further apart they are spaced, the less impact they have.

Some petite woman end up choosing clothing from the children’s section. While in terms of size these clothes may fit, it is important for all women that we also choose clothing that suits us as individuals. Petite women want be able to wear feminine, flattering clothing that suits their age, career and lifestyle. It is unlikely that children’s wear will be appropriate.

Simply choosing the smallest size in general women’s fashion and having the lengths altered may work sometimes but not always. The cuts, patterns and details may be too large on a petite woman, and attempting to alter these elements will be expensive, if not impossible.

Good department stores will have a specialist petite section. If you’ve never ventured in before you will be pleasantly surprised at the range and quality of petite clothing available.

Knowing your body shape is crucial. These simple guidelines will help the petite woman to always look and feel her best.

Overcoming Adversity Speaker Secrets to Empower You & Revolutionize Your World

Posted by admin | Uncategorized | Saturday 1 March 2008 3:38 pm

Personal stories detailing small beginnings and struggles of successful people encourage me greatly. In In answer and response to the continual prompting of a friend, here’s my story of overcoming adversity.

I was born with pneumonia, after which I lived in an oxygen tent until I gained the strength to endure the outside elements. I cried so much during my infancy, I gave myself a hernia which required surgery to repair.

Once in the earth instead of ceasing, my struggles only intensified. My mother divorced my dad and became an alcoholic and drug addict. Growing up, my mom was either in one of three places: the bar getting drunk, in jail behind bars, or in a mental ward receiving rehabilitation.

In the absence of my mother and father, I grew up with my maternal grandparents. Though my grandparents adored and cared wonderfully for me, they simultaneously battled to help my mother recover from substance abuse and mental illness caused by it. This was very embarrassing and difficult for me to endure as a youth growing up.

When my father remarried and gained custody of me, I had a hard time getting along with my step-mother who refused to pamper and spoil me as did my grandparents. Once my parents relocated me from Orlando to live in the country, at the age of 12 years I battled childhood depression and for a short while even contemplated suicide I so hated my life.

Nevertheless I determined to cultivate inner happiness, overcome my circumstances, and make something of my life. I became the most-improved student in 6th grade, excelled at baseball making the all-stars and led my team to 1st place, winning the most games of any pitcher in the league.

I also reconciled with my step-mother who today I affectionately call “Mom” and have a special relationship with. As for my grandparents, I during my adult life cared for them for 2 years before they passed as I didn’t want to put them in a nursing home after they were so good to me when I was growing up.

Though I after 5 years of marriage suffered a horrible divorce due to my ex-wife’s infidelity and adulterous affair, I forgave her and happily moved on with my life. During my personal ground zero, I wrote Breakthrough For a Broken Heart empowering people just like me to overcome their disappointments and blossom into their dreams!

Today I am again happily married to the love of my life Karla, a gorgeous Canadian who is all I ever dreamed of in a wife. We are traveling throughout the globe revolutionizing the world, making an amazing difference in the lives of people everywhere we go!

Other notable accomplishments that shaped and further strengthened my ability to overcome adversity and uplift humanity are:

- Paul worked at Ground Zero in New York City the first week of 9/11, two stops from Brooklyn Heights where Paul used to live. Paul drove a rental car up to NYC from Orlando, FL as all airports were shut down for national security reasons.

- Paul helped a Muslim young man rebuild his home at the tsunami epicenter in Indonesia and spoke to tribal groups in Wamena who are “naked and not ashamed.”

- Paul comforted victims of genocide in Rwanda and Burundi where 1.2 million people were slaughtered.

- Paul spoke to leaders in East Timor during the war for independence before the UN recognized the new nation.

- Paul addressed University students and monks in Myanmar working together to achieve democracy.

- Paul spoke throughout war-torn East Africa journeying deep into the “bush” where villagers have never seen a white man.

- Paul lived in and lectured throughout India and China the two largest populaces on earth.]

- Paul journeyed to Pakistan twice since 9/11 to speak to large audiences about peace, non-violence, and reconciliation.

When I began speaking, at first I didn’t understand what captivated the audience so much and made them listen to me. Then I realized it was my own overcoming stories and small personal victories that empower people.

Here are the keys that most impact and transform people from my talks:

1. Transparency – people like something real

2. Humility – people can relate

3. Hilarity – people love to laugh

4. Insight – wisdom from my hardships

5. Inspiration – if I can do it, anybody can achieve greatness

6. Encouragement – a good word to uplift and propel people forward

7. Boldness – to defy the odds and silence the skeptics

Loving and lifting people from my own life’s difficulties is a wonderful experience that makes my life worth living.
