Clothing Colors for Petite and Slim People

Sunday, June 28th, 2009
Henning M asked:


If you are petite and slim, colors are very important for you. Single color or a blend of one-color tone is the best for you. Perpendicular prototypes and seaming are also very excellent. Simple jumpers and clothing lean to give a longer line for petite women, shorter jackets presents a leggier look, wearing solids prints as an alternative of bulky and garish ones will also help to optically formulate you higher. A large amount of petite women don’t bother to be dressed in high-heeled shoes. Nevertheless, don’t formulate too much of it, too gigantic or high shoes will make you look ludicrous instead of graceful. Wearing the right kind of combination is very important for everyone. If you are wearing the right kind of combination then it will make you look stylish and cool and you will feel very comfortable and trendy if you are wearing right kind colors.

Women who are petite and huge should be extremely considerate while choosing garments. You’re garments must fit absolutely well to conceal the particulars you don’t like. Women, those who have such body outline should keep away from skintight, keep away from ****** pocket, soft at the neck and the collar, and all the other pockets, shouldn’t put on anything that is bulky, big or complex. There are lots of different types of garments in the market, which can provide you with a great deal of comfort. There are tons of people, who only go in for a brand without worrying about the price, what I would suggest is to have a bit of both.

Corresponding garments with your body outline is rather easy if you distinguish some basic issues. Classify your body outline, match colors and decide the right models. That is all you require to conceal your lacks and make your good body qualities more visible.

What size diamond earrings?

Friday, June 26th, 2009
bozsik asked:


Ladies, what size diamond earring is just right for you, if you are like my wife? She is 5′1, petite, and is not showy or flashy at all. I know she would love diamond earrings for Christmas, but I do not know what size is decent. I can afford a nicer pair of 1 carat TW, but I’m afraid they might be too big for her petite frame. (She doesn’t want to look like an NFL player flashing bling)

Any suggestions? I think 0.5 carat TW is too small, but I’m a stupid man, after all.

Thanks

Awesome Parisian Shopping Discoveries

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009
Phil Chavanne asked:


Good news! I have more great Parisian hot spots yet for the readers of Paris-Eiffel-Tower-News.com. Read on, I believe you won’t be disappointed.

Wine tasting at Galerie Vivienne

If you like your wine, you won’t want to miss this French 1950s-style period wine shop. With its wood paneling and charming window displays, it opens up onto the Galerie Vivienne, one of the most stunning indoor arcades in Paris. There lie the wine cellars of ‘Legrand filles et fils’ (Legrand daughters & sons), some of the most highly reputed in Paris.

These cellars have been lovingly and expertly stocked by three generations of the Legrand family ever since the end of the World War I. Sadly enough, these cellars are not open to the general public. The shop offers however a warm family atmosphere.

Wine prices range from 5 to 10,000 euros a bottle, with a wide selection in the 5-15 euros price bracket. You won’t go hungry either, as the shop also carries a range of delicacies to bring out the flavor of the wine.

Worthy of note, the shop offers wine tasting and lessons! For 60 euros you can attend an introductory wine tasting session every Monday from 8 to 10 pm. Seating is limited, so book beforehand by phone or by e-mail.

The shop also features a wine tasting corner, open from 12:00 noon to 6:00 pm, where you can choose a wine and get a plate of accompanying delicacies specially selected to bring out the taste of your wine. The cost is 5.25 euros a glass and 15-30 euros a plate. You can also order desserts.

The shop has two entrances: No. 1 Rue de la Banque, and No. 12 Galerie Vivienne, 75002 Paris. For wine tasting reservations, call: 33 (0)1 4260 0712 or email: info[at]caves-legrand.com.

Monastica – craftsmanship steeped in tradition

This is a fantastic place where you can get your hands on authentic French handmade products, crafts and souvenirs steeped in tradition –- and do a good deed at the same time. If you wander at the tip of the St Louis Island, you’ll discover on Rue du Pont Louis-Philippe a boutique called Monastica, owned and run by the nuns of “Les Fraternités de Jérusalem” (The Brotherhoods of Jerusalem), a religious order originally founded in 1975 at the Church Saint Gervais in Paris, which has now spread out internationally.

Most products sold by the shop are made by the Order, the rest by lay craftsmen, but all profits go to the Order. Their products are typically French: stoneware crockery, jams, biscuits, chocolate, marzipan, Provence honey, perfumes, hygiene and beauty products, fine Catalan house linen, statues, decorations, etc. Their Catalan linen is particularly valued, and they have an incredibly wide array of soaps.

You can lay your hands on country jams for around € 5, essential oils from € 4 to € 8, post cards for € 0.80, soaps for € 2.75. Prices are very moderate.

Should you want to buy gifts, your purchases can be beautifully gift-wrapped. The nuns speak English too.

Once again, the address is 11, rue du Pont Louis-Philippe, 75004 Paris. You can reach them at: 33 (0)1 4887 8513 and 33 (0)8 7455 6685.

Free concerts in an awesome setting!

Free music anyone? While in Paris you can attend free concerts twice a week at Saint-Merri Church in downtown rue Saint-Martin. This church dates back to 1550. Its architecture has been inspired by Notre-Dame’s, and in fact it is known as ‘Notre-Dame la petite’ (the little Notre-Dame). It is chock-a-block with impressive stained-glass windows, frescos, bas-reliefs, sculptures, tapestries and paintings, not to mention its beautiful musical center-piece, an awesome organ with a long and distinguished history.

Concerts last around an hour and start on Saturdays at 9:00 pm and on Sundays at 4:00 pm. Although the musical genre is predominately classical, they do play jazz from time to time, and even rarer kinds of music: classical Indian, Chinese, Armenian, and medieval music. Donations are appreciated but entirely at your discretion.

On the first and third Sundays of every month the Church offers a guided visit of the building after the concert.

The Saint-Merri Church is situated at 78 rue Saint-Martin, 75004 Paris. The phone number is: 33 (0)1 4271 9393. The two closest metro stations are: Hotel de Ville (take exit Rue du Renard); and Chatelet (take exit Place Sainte Opportune).
