By Julian Kwandez

Although there are a lot of rappers, singers, and actors that have a signature clothing line, few have brought the sophistication and sensuality found at the House of Dereon. Singer, songwriter, actress and today mega superstar, Beyonce Knowles, started the company in 2006 with the help of her mother Tina Knowles, a talented seamstress who was responsible for most of the fashion worn by Beyonce and Destinys Child.

It was the buzz around Tina Knowles designs that she created for Beyonce and Destinys Child that gave birth to the idea of a fashion line. Beyonce named the brand after her grandmother, Agnez Dereon, who custom tailored clothing for private clients in Louisiana during her lifetime. Three generations of women contributed to the Dereon clothing look: Agnez, Tina, and Beyonce.

The elements of Beyonce's Creole ancestry and the mix of retro and vintage styles incorporated with modern hip hop influences make for a one of a kind line that has quickly resonated with fans and received acclaim from fashion critics. These days Beyonce and her sister, Solange, model Dereon clothing, but Beyonce is more than just a model. She also assists and contributes design ideas to the items featured at the House of Dereon.

How To Locate The Very Best Bargain Items

By Connor Sullivan

She is always wearing the hippest shoes and carrying the hottest look over her shoulder. Her friends wonder how she does it on her salary. Yet Jill has a few tricks up her sleeve.

For instance, her friends would be surprised to learn that as she browses online she looks at all the Juicy Couture replica handbags and all the Fendi replica handbags before making her selection. She knows that her budget does not allow her to carry an authentic but she knows that a great imitation can look as good as an original creation for a fraction of the cost.

Jill knows that to be a successful bargain shopper she needs to keep from overspending when she shops. One of the tactics she employs to accomplish this is by shopping at outlet malls. Outlet malls usually have great bargains available. Another way she sticks to her budget is by watching for sales. A really great shopping tip is to not buy anything at retail price. A great idea is to go shopping with the intention of not making a purchase. Conducting a browsing expedition provides a true sense of what is popular and fashionable.

Finding bargains can be a lengthy adventure. Sometimes finding the best bargain can mean making multiple visits to a few different stores or going to a few web sites. Put in the effort to compare prices. It is amazing how the same item can be offered by different stores for very inconsistent amounts. Price discrepancies are common, and not only if an item is offered for sale. Some stores always subscribe to a suggested retail price, while others are known to discount items immediately for quick sale. Do some research to find the best price on an item that may be of interest.

Sometimes finding a bargain comes down to pure luck. Just being in the right place at the right time can sometimes lead to the perfect purchase. Maybe you just happen to get the very final item or maybe you show up just in time for the markdown but before the large crowd. Who really knows what can happen? The best shoppers will tell you that some of the best bargains are those that were never expected. Keep your eyes peeled and put yourself in a position to find the bargains.

Here's To A Smoother Dance Recital

By Ocianne Lambert

Dance recitals are a time for your little one to showcase her talent. She's been practicing those dance routines for months and now its time for her to shine. Even though it is an exciting time, it can also be a stressful one. Here are some ways that will help things run a little smoother on the big day.

Plan ahead. Start planning for the performance ahead of time, at least by a week. Make a list of everything you may need, such as costumes, special dance shoes, tights or other accessories.

Make sure your child is rested. Recitals are tiring enough without the lack of sleep. Having your daughter sleep a little more the week of the recital will go a long way in helping her on the big day.

Make certain she has plenty of energy. Recitals can take up a lot of time, so pack plenty of water or Gatorade for her to drink to keep her energy high. Have her favorite snacks packed as well, and make certain to bring some snacks for yourself too.

Arrive to the recital on time. Make arrangements so you can get to the performance early. You will need time to set up in the dressing room. Your child will thank you later for the extra time to calm her nerves.

Label your costumes and accessories. There are a lot of other dance students wearing the same costumes and dance shoes, and the odds are many of them may wear the same size as your daughter. Keep track of your items by properly labeling them.

Bring Entertainment. Recitals can have long stretches in between dance numbers. Bring a few quiet games, such as a deck of cards, to help pass the time during the more boring parts of the event.

Breathe. Keep in mind that recitals usually only occur once or twice a year. Try to remember to breathe and relax as you watch your child perform so you can enjoy seeing them up on stage. - 29871

Use The Internet And Order Progressive Eyeglasses

By Jennifer Smith

It can be hard to find just the right glasses. It is even harder when your optometrist tells you that you need to wear bifocals or trifocal eyeglasses. It can be embarrassing because you can see a definitive line that goes across the lenses. This tells everyone that you really cannot see. There is an alternative that is available now. These eyeglasses are called progressive eyeglasses and they are a much better option than the traditional bifocal or trifocal eyeglasses.

Progressive eyeglasses help the eye muscles to adjust accordingly. There is not a defined line like in a pair of bifocals or trifocals. The transition in the lens in much smoother and more progressive. It is easier for people to transition from seeing up close to seeing far away. Plus, they do not look as obvious as bifocals do. They really almost look like regular glasses.

All you need to do in order to buy your own pair of progressive eyeglasses is to go to your optometrist and get a prescription. When you get your prescription you can actually go anywhere to get your eyeglasses. You do not actually have to buy them from the optometrist office.

When you order online, you can choose any style that you want. You do not have to have the old fashioned ugly frames anymore. There are many designer frames that look awesome. When you buy them online, you are guaranteeing that you are getting them at a better price than if you get them in your optometrist office.

Being able to see at all levels is much easier with progressive lenses. The transition is gradual and smooth, unlike a bifocal or trifocal lens. Progressive lenses actually imitate the way the eye works much closer and you will not have to wait that long before you are very used to using them all of the time.

Since progressive lenses are becoming very popular, you can now find them in a lot more places to buy. Many online companies will make them for you and because they are so trendy, they are a lot less money.

If the doctor has told you that you need to have bifocals or trifocals then you should ask them about progressive lenses. It doesn't hurt to ask. You will be glad that you took the time to ask when you are wearing your new progressive eyeglasses. - 29871

I Love Buying Baby Clothes

By Amy Andrews

You may get a lot of great things when you have a baby shower. Many people love to buy baby clothes for the new baby, so this may be a very common gift. When you get these things home, you may find some are not to your liking and you take them back for something else, but many of the outfits and other items are going to be great. You do not want to take these items of babies clothing and place them in a dresser, stand, or closet to wait for your baby to wear them. You have to clean them first, and you have to keep a few things in mind after they come home as well.

Anything that is going to touch your baby's skin will need to be cleaned in a detergent that is made for that reason. Ivory Snow was one such product, but it may not be on the market any longer. You can also look for and purchase Dreft in your local store or online in some cases. There are others that work well for babies clothing too, so see what you can find. The main point is that the detergent is gentle without anything that will irritate the soft, sensitive skin of a baby. You may want to use this for one year and then you can see what happens. Most babies are fine after that time, but some continue to have sensitive skin issues.

When you purchase or receive your new car seat for your baby, you should give it the same treatment you would your babies clothing. You want to take off the fabric parts (do so carefully so you do not lose anything and so that you know how to put it back together) and put them in the wash with the special detergent as well. The same can be said for any crib seats, changing pad liners, and all blankets that will be in contact with your baby's skin. If your baby will touch it, wash it.

There are going to be times when you have a need to remove a stain from babies clothing items. At no time in our lives are we quite as messy as we are when we are under three years of age. You may be tempted to use your regular stain stick or spray, but that is not a good idea either. There are some stain sprays made just for babies clothing, and Dreft makes one of them. Read labels before you buy so you know the solution will not irritate baby's skin and then use as directed.

If any of the babies clothing items you get or buy are dry clean only, make sure you let your dry cleaner know that you want them to use something gentle. The very nature of dry cleaning may ensure everything is fine, but you want to ask and be sure they understand. If your baby breaks out easily, you may want to use detergents and cleaners made just for babies much longer than one year old. Remember that anything you use in your home could irritate them, so read all labels carefully, even when you are cleaning something other than babies clothing. - 29871

By Phil Caxton

Here are some useful tips and guidelines given in this article about how to get some winter bicycle clothing, so that you enjoy a safe and comfortable ride.

Winter bicycle clothing Some of the must-haves of winter bicycle clothing are as follows: 1. First of all, buy a good pair of bicycle shorts so that your crotch area is safe during cycling. Though you get unisex shorts and those meant for boys and girls, try the one which fits your size and you are comfortable in, rather than focusing on the style of the pant.

2. The next most important winter bicycle clothing is a pair of good quality bicycle gloves. Avoid the leather ones, since they might become greasy soon and be uncomfortable, rather settle for something warm and yet has a good grip.

The Era Of Gold Standard

By Jack Wagon

There was a time in history when the gold standard existed as a monetary system, and is still considered a good one. This monetary system required all the countries taking part in this system, to pledge that they will keep the rate of their currencies in terms of gold.

In 1790s, there was a shortage in the silver in UK, which forced them to use gold coins in replacement. The gold standard began during this time when the Bank Charter Act was introduced in'44, in which the use of gold coins became a legal standard. Bi- metallic standards were set in America on the other hand, which included both silver and gold coins.

On the other hand, America was using both metals as a legal standard, but after the Fourth Coinage Act passed in'73, all countries adopted the gold standard. France, Italy, and Germany also followed the gold standard, and the time of'80 to'14 is said to be the peak of gold standard era. Through out the world, huge economic growth was observed during this period.

The demand and supply of any currency was regulated through the gold standard, which also kept the supply stable. All exchange rates, meaning the value of a currency in relation to the currency of another country were calculated through the gold standard.

This led to the use of fixed exchange rates throughout the world, and meant that the value of currencies were always seeing upheavals and down turns remaining in connection, which led to a reduction in economic uncertainty. There were other benefits of the gold standard as well. Inflation was controlled because the governments could not simply issue currency, and float it in the market to create inflationary pressures.

There were also certain disadvantages, which led to the abolishment of the gold standard. The fixed exchange rate system meant that monetary shocks in one country were transmitted to other countries as well. This led to changes in the economy, money supply, and price levels in other countries. While there was long-term stability, prices were sometimes highly unstable in the short run.

Not all countries were loyal to these rules, and they did not change their discount rates loyally. Many people were unemployed during this time since economy was always changing, and there was also immense pressure on countries, which produced gold. Hence, the gold standard monetary system was finished.

The gold standard has no chances of coming back in the monetary system, but still many people believe it will be good for the economy. Although it managed to keep a fixed exchange rate, keep the price levels stable and did not give central banks the control of financial strategy, this system still had its drawbacks. - 29871

The Cashmere Punch-Up

By Myer Thompson

We've all heard about the look, feel and fabric of cotton. It's catchy and who doesn't like cotton? It's a win-win situation that doesn't call for us to do much more than check the label and try it on. We can say the same thing about the luxury liner of fabrics, that darling of Darjeeling: cashmere.

Cashmere is a big deal for a good reason. It's one of the most sensuous fabrics on this fair planet. We can make a great case for silk and cotton and even synthetics like Rayon, but they don't quite compare with cashmere. If you have ever had the utter joy of owning and wearing cashmere sweaters, you know what I'm talking about.

You should indeed have a lamb's wool sweater, and maybe even one crafted from an acrylic blend. But your wardrobe hasn't graduated Fashion College until it boasts of having at least two cashmere beauties in it. Lads and little girls like to wear fuzzy sweaters with stripes. Men and women of distinction, on the other hand, know how to match their solid cashmere sweaters with anything on the proverbial rack.

If it looks cheap, it is. Don't bother with cashmere if it's blended or regaled with busy patterns. The beauty of the fabric is its subtly. After all, subtly is the clearest watermark of sophistication. You can write with a clumsy gel pen, but it won't compare to an elegant Cross pen or a Lamy fountain pen. It's like comparing apples to oranges.

Take your wardrobe up a notch with a minimum of two sumptuous cashmere pieces -- read as sweaters -- and begin the process of understanding how texture can transform a tepid sartorial palette into a thing of complicated beauty. If you find sweaters too bothersome or unfashionable (which would be surprising to say the least) you can always incorporate a cashmere scarf or shawl instead. - 29871

Drink Coaster Musings

By Jim Slate

A coaster is a relatively small and obscure piece of a homes overal decorative scheme. They serve a functional purpose, but in general, they aren't noticed until a sweaty glass is bearing down on one of your table or shelving surfaces. At that point they snap into action, acting as the barrier between the bottom of the glass, and the top of the table, protecting it from water damage, scratches, and other nasty blemishes.

Beverage coasters also serve another purpose. They are decorative items that can be used to splash color throughout a space. This is particularly true due to their transient nature. They are not permanent fixtures in a room. Instead they are usually stacked quietly somewhere off to the side, often in an attractive holder, waiting for when someone wants a glass of water, or a cold beverage on a warm day, or any occasion when they will be useful to have around. Then they are unfurled and the stack is spread out throughout a space.

At that point, whatever colors and images are printed on the surface of the coasters suddenly becomes an important part of the environment. Spreading out, casting a net over the space, coasters can actually become quite prominent, and so it is important to choose pieces which invoke the atmosphere you are trying to create. Since they will be more prominent when used around guests, you will want to factor that into your decision making process as well.

There are a variety of materials that beverage coasters can be manufactured from. Some of these are absorbent, such as sandstone, and cork, allowing the coaster to literally soak up the moisture from a glass. Others are non absorbent, but are instead equipped with a lip, which rings the piece, holding both the glass and the moisture in place on top of the coaster. It is important to choose a coaster set which will flow naturally with the environment, and wont clash with existing pieces in the space. While they may not always be prominent, beverage coasters can sneak up on you, and if a few friends come over you may find yourself agitated by the color or style of the coasters, when spread out and matched up with your various furnishings - 29871

Wholesale Jewelry Marketing And Califonia Proposition Sixty Five

By Ben David

I was shopping online the last week and came across some great deals on wholesale jewelry on the internet. Then when I scrolled down the web page I read how California retailers have to adhere to proposition 65 warnings. They had to let their customers know that their jewelry contained chemicals and elements that have been known to cause cancer and birth defects.

I am warned to even wash my hands after touching the jewelry. Infants and small children are to be kept away from the jewelry. And if you see anyone sucking or eating the jewelry you better tell them to stop. Who wants a cancer causing agent in their mouth?

But I am not sure I want to give a gift that needs such a warning. When I give it to someone as a gift do make sure they read the proposition 65 warning. Do I have to make sure to tell them to wash their hands after handling my gift; and what if they have children? Do I have to tell them not to let their kids handle my gift?

This proposition applies to California retailers. So does this mean I can buy jewelry in Nevada and not worry about cancer causing agents? Or can I give Nevada jewelry as gifts and have no worry about warning anyone about my gift Well jewelry is jewelry. The industry has been making jewelry the same way for centuries. I doubt if California is the only state where jewelry can cause cancer.

Does anyone pay attention to these warnings? Do you pay attention to such warnings? If I gave you a wrist bracelet for Christmas with a California 65 tag on it would you not accept it, if you liked the bracelet? Chances are you would wear the bracelet.

How does jewelry cause cancer anyway? Does California have a unique testing system other states do not have? Or do the other states have the same information but they simply let their population take their chances on getting sick?

Jewelry has been manufactured the same for centuries. And lead has been part of that process for centuries. Has anyone gotten cancer for wearing lead around their necks? Or their wrists or on their ears for that matter? Who can say for sure? If it was not for proposition 65 in California however no one would give it a second thought. But at least customers can decide for themselves. If they want to wash their hands after wearing their jewelry that is up to them.

And if you are thinking of giving jewelry as a gift you can decide for yourself if you want to warn the person you give to about the cancer causing agents, or if you want to give jewelry at all. I might not have known all of this if I did not go shopping online for wholesale jewelry. - 29871
