Spring into Paradise

Planning for a sunny escape or just dreaming about one? Wearing pretty, flowery clothes is a first-class ticket to a shopping paradise. Spring is about the fresh and the unexpected. The fit of the clothes should be relaxed. I love my long and bold floral dress. It makes me feel relaxed when I am wearing a long breezy dress. A breezy dress is an effortless pick. I put my hair down with this dress and I’m ready to go in paradise. After winter’s body-skimming shapes, it’s a relief to wear something light and uncomplicated. This floral dress is stylish and versatile enough to wear anywhere during the spring season. Once again, this is an outfit that cinches at the waist, to accentuate the figure, but is loose enough not to be too revealing. It is a good way to say “hi” to a new warmer season after a long cold winter.

What I'll Be Wearing

I want clothes that don’t take themselves too seriously. I love the idea of having a wardrobe where everything goes with everything else, but is still unique enough to keep me feeling stylish and cool.

I love this amazingly beautiful animal print dress. This dress I’m wearing is actually very lightweight, perfect for when the weather gets warmer. I balanced it by pairing it with an oversized cardigan. This gray oversized cardigan is thinly knit, so it doesn’t add bulk. I love this dress because I can pull it together in a number of ways. I can complete the look by just simply wearing black tights and black high heeled shoes.

I turn this simple animal print dress into something classic and comfortable when it gets warmer, I wear it with black flat shoes for a more relaxed look. I simply wear it by itself without the oversize cardigan. At first glance, I’m pretty basic, but every piece I wear looks stylish and sophisticated.

My Romantic Valentine’s Getaway

Today is February 14th, the day we have all been waiting for this month. This will be the day to show our love to everyone around us, but especially to our significant others. Today, my husband and I have planned a very fun filled and romantic day. I am sure it will be as enjoyable and exciting as we planned for. I love my children, but sometimes you need to get away from home to keep the spark in your relationship. If you are always at home, after a tiring day, with the kids around, intimacy becomes something of a routine. You need to go away somewhere so you are not distracted by things of the past or the future, but can concentrate solely on the moment for the highest level of intimacy.

The day will start with us having lunch at a nice seafood restaurant. I am very fond of lobster, and will have a large one for my meal. My husband is still partly a steak and potato man, so he usually has steak and shrimp. This will be a good start to the rest of the day’s events. We will spend the afternoon shopping at one of the nearby malls. This is only because the main event cannot start until 6:00 pm, so, being a woman; I will find a useful way to pass the time.

That night we will check in to a room that is designed especially for couples. It has a pool, a whirlpool, a bed with many mirrors, and many other romantic things. Here we will partake in all types of fun like swimming, drinking champagne, taking pictures and videos. Of course, there will be a large quantity of intimate physical bodily contact. This will heighten the passion, the pleasure and bond our souls tighter than ever. It will be a total uplifting experience for the mind, body and soul.
If we sleep, it will be as late as we can endure, and will be only long enough to remove the heaviest fatigue so we can start again early the next morning. This will be a Valentine’s Day for us to cherish and remember for all our days. After this is all done, there will be another outcome that I will use for my blog. Look for postings on fashion to follow soon. Everyone have a safe, loving and happy Valentine’s Day!

Valentines Day Not Just for Romantic Love

It is February, and with the Superbowl being done, all minds turn to the biggest event of the month, Valentines Day. This season, with the help of advertisers like Hallmark and FTD Florists, has become a major commercial event. But that is not what Valentines Day means to me. Also, Valentines Day is not just a romantic celebration of love, but is a celebration of love at all levels.

I believe that we need to show our love to everyone on Valentines Day, not just our spouses or other lovers. We need to show our family that we love them. We need to say “I love you” to our children, our parents, our siblings, and to every one of our relatives that we can. These people are very important in our lives and this is a good opportunity to show that we love and appreciate them. We also need to let our friends know that they too are loved and are very important to us. On Valentines Day we should try to show kindness and appreciation for all of the people we contact.

Valentines Day should not be a matter of “how much did you spend” or “he went to Jared’s”. Valentines Day is not about how much money you spend, but how much quality time you spend with others. Valentines Day should be a state of mind; we should have these feelings for those we love every day of the year. Unfortunately, this is not always the way things are in reality, so let’s try to show our love for at least one day this year.

Keys to Our Happy Romantic Relationship

These are the keys to our happy relationship for fifteen years. My husband and I learn from each other everyday of our marriage. We make certain that we are never both angry at the same time. Neither of us needs to win an argument, we let the other one win. Eventually, if we are right, our spouse will see it, but no conflict is needed. If we criticize each other, we do it gently; constructive criticism is always good if delivered in a nice way. We both learn never to bring up mistakes of the past, keeping anything we are discussing to current situations. We try to say something kind or complimentary to one another at least once a day. My husband and I learned, as the years went by, to admit we have done something wrong and to ask forgiveness for it. We are not so proud that we cannot be truthful to each other in situations of fault. We do our best to never go to sleep with an argument unresolved. My husband and I try not to ever take each other for granted. These are the keys to our happy, loving and romantic relationship.

A Day with My Son

Today we had a snow storm so my son‘s school was closed. I was so glad that I could spend good quality time with him. After breakfast he played with his PSP. A few hours later, after I was done with my routine household tasks, I prepared our lunch. Both my son and I love to play scrabble. We decided to play a game of scrabble after we ate our lunch. It was really fun playing scrabble because we always find new words and look up the meaning of the words in the dictionary. Some times we would find a word that is not in everyday use. It is one way of exercising the brain. We were so carried away that we forgot the time. My son and I really had a great time. Playing scrabble with my son is priceless. It was a simple way to spend good quality time with my son.
