How To Dress A Big Belly And Look Great- men fashion.

Dressing well can be a bit tricky when you have a big belly. You have to always make an extra effort and forego a few clothes that you have always liked but you can still pull great looks. Sometimes you can even fool people about the existence of your big belly by making it look smaller or completely hiding it! Working out to lose the belly is the best option but before you can get to your dream body, here are a few tips on how to dress a big stomach:

  • Always try to wear plain colored clothes. these naturally reduce the effect of a protruding belly. wearing printed clothes can easily make a big stomach look bigger.
  • Tucking in shirts has a balancing effect on your body. A neatly tucked shirt makes you look more proportional and makes the belly appear smaller.

  • Use the layering trick: If the weather allows, try wearing a hood or a cool jacket that goes with the clothes that you are wearing. most hoods will completely hide your belly and make you look cool.
  • Avoid clothes with horizontal or diagonal stripes: they tend to make you look bigger, especially shirts.
  • If you are short and planning to tuck in, avoid wearing trousers completely below the belly as this makes you look ridiculously unproportional. Instead, wear the pants around the widest part of your belly which in most cases is halfway your body. Do not wear pants above your belly.
  • When you are shopping, try clothes on and see how they look on you. Going by measurements only could end up giving you a not so cool look.
  • Occasionally you can take advantage of suspender belts. They look good and classy plus they hold your pants at the best fitting level.
  • Sweaters that are not too tight or baggy will always be a good look especially when won with casual pants or jeans.

  • Do not be afraid of trying out new trends as long as they look good on you. Although skinny jeans, however trendy they are should not be your favorite dress code.
I think Fat Joe and Rick Ross are people to look up to. They always dress to kill and most of the times get it right. Once you define your style and choose wisely, we won't even bother about your big belly; we just admire the good look!
Fat Joe coolest look ever!

Amazing Model With Down Syndrome- Meet Madeline Stuart

When I think of 'amazing' I think about Madeline Stuart, an 18-year old who has gone beyond her limits to become a star in the fashion industry. Madeline has down syndrome, a condition which can really make it difficult to maintain a good weight but that was not reason enough not to chase her run way dreams. With support from her mother, she has become a star and an inspiration to many.
 During the 2015 New York fashion week she has wowed many with her confidence and elegance. Her appearance in New York on Sunday 13th September must have been a stepping stone in her modelling career because now the whole world can see the potential in people born with different disabilities-she did better than so many models who attended the event. Seven fashion brands have already expressed their interest in Madeline Stuart. More over, her Facebook fan page has grown by over 500,000 fans within a week.
Madeline's main goal in all this is to change how the world views people with different health conditions in relation to fashion. Her mother, Rosanne, said that they want to change people's mindsets regarding people with down syndrome. "That's not what it's about for us, we want to change people's perspectives on intellectual disability but what's important is our daily routine and just being happy.We will only continue doing this as long as Maddy is happy doing this, it's only what makes Maddy happy that's important."

See Madeline's gallery below. If you don't love this, i wonder what else you would fall for!

You can play around unlimited hair styles on braided hair for as long as your braids are well fixed. you can adjust braided hair to suit any event by just changing the style which is what every lady would like- convenience.

#1 Cute up-do with a side fringe

You know those hairstyles you do and you feel young again? Well, this is one of them. Most faces will look great with the braids styled this way including a round or a square face. Casual events, parties, cultural and most social events will suit this updo.


#2 Folding a fringe on box braids
This will be awesome especially if you have a long forehead. I find this style too artistic to let go without trying out. Furthermore, it suites most casual occasions and all events where you want to look stylish.

#3 Going fairy and elegant
It's easier to style braids this way if their size is small. This is one style that suits all places that require elegance and a bit of a 'princess feeling'. This can be used by many as a wedding hairstyle or you can pull this move when going to a prom. Plus you don't have to be twenty years old to look young in this one.

Juicing For Weight loss


Juicing for weight loss has been proven to be a safe and effective way of shedding off some weight. Since weight gain is caused mainly by taking in more calories than we can burn, then for us to lose weight we need to get rid of the excess calories and to only consume the required amount of calories. This could be quite a challenge when health is put into consideration and that is why juicing comes in very handy for you.
What does "Juicing for weightloss" mean?
Juicing for weight loss is simply taking in nutrients into your body in form of juices made from natural vegetables and fruits that contain the necessary calories and nutrients essential for normal functioning of the body. Basically you can choose from a wide range of fruits and vegetables but you should make sure you are taking in enough nutrients. The juice can be made using a juicing machine or a blender. You may also improvise your own ways of extracting the juice if you don’t have either of the two.
Tips while making your weightloss juice:
  • When extracting juice it is important to return back some of the pulp you left while extracting juice from the fruits so that you can have some fiber in your body. 
  • You should also observe hygiene and good preservation of the juice. 
  • The best juice would be the one you make and take on the same day. 
  • You should only use fresh fruits and vegetables. Vegetable juice should be extracted from raw vegetables. 
  • The rate at which you juice will highly depend on your weight and how much you need to loose. Sometimes it would be important to consult with your doctor first and get advice on how much weight you can lose without causing harm to your body.

What to use to make weightloss juice:
  • Some of the popular and delicious juices come from fruits such as:pineapples, oranges, passion fruits, lemon and mangoes. 
  • Vegetables such as beet root, spinach, red cabbage and carrots are also very advisable. 
  • A combination of any of the above fruits and vegetables will work well for most people. You can actually blend all for a juice rich in nutrients. 
  • Other fruits can also be used depending on your tastes and preferences. 
  • Most green leafy vegetables are nutrient rich. 
  • You might want to avoid sweeteners and artificial sugars in your juice since they contain a lot of calories.  

How to juice effectively and lose weight
  1. Taking alcohol and processed fats after juicing will also render all your weight-loss efforts useless.
  2. Besides taking juices, you should make sure that you keep your body active and do some exercise as well. Sweating is a great sign that you have kept your body active. 
  3. You will also need to drink a lot of water.Taking in water is the best way to remove toxins from your body and to keep yourself feeling fresh and relaxed.

Men Fashion 2015: Three ways to wear a belt and make an impression!

Have you ever wondered why some men look so good in simple clothes while you feel you don't look so good in your flashy custom mades? I have just discovered that a good belt is the simplest way to transform your looks without making so much effort. Different belts suit different ocassions plus you can have as many in your wardrobe without looking weird.
To start you off, try out the following ideas. I found them very useful for any trendy man.

1. Matching your leather belt with other leather accessories
A leather watch, bag, or bangle to match you leather belt is quite impressive. It adds a sense of style to your attire and balances everything even if you are playing around different colors. You could also try wearing matching shoes if you are the cautious type.
2. Going colorful
A black or brown belt is usually very okey for almost all men. Very few men actually dare to choose brightly colored belts. What many of us have not noticed is that colored belts tend to refresh the outfit and if done right, it is super-trendy. If you are a bit shy you can start off with a blue belt; it's not so conspicous. After a while I promise you will be addicted to color.

3. Try out suspender belts














I know not so many men have tried out suspender belts but its never too late to start. The best thing about suspenders is that they never seem to go out of fashion and you can wear them even when you grow old. When you really want to go casual in a classy way or whan you want to add a reto touch to your official clothes, suspenders will easily o it for you.

Shoe Advice for Plus Size Ladies







With plus sizes, the trick for any shoe is in the comfort. Not every shoe that fits you will serve your toes well, so you might want to use some tips:
  • Choose shoes that have enough breathing space for your toes if you are wearing closed shoes. This ensures comfort in your toes in turn keeping your body relaxed.
  • Choose the right size of heel; heels are gorgeous but they can really harass you if you pick the wrong type. A high heel shoe with a platform is quite comfortable and easy to move about in for some plus size ladies while lower heels work best for most. Very flat shoes sometimes don't feel comfortable if you are walking or standing for long therefore a wedge heel would be best to reduce back strain.
  • Very heavy shoe soles might get you easily tired or slow down your walking especially if you are a busy woman. Anything that feels like some piece of rock has been tied to the bottom of your feet is a big no except if you are willing to pay the price.
  • Go for gorgeous!- Any lady just wants something attractive and if we share the same views, an attractive pair gets you more psyched up to walk. Pick your favorite colors and brand and the motivation will be automatic.
  • For strapped shoes avoid very tight straps. Choose slightly loose straps for sandals to avoid marks on your feet after a long day. Elastic straps are the best because they adjust according to the size of your leg.
  • Look for absorbancy qualities in the shoe if it is closed; you do not want sweaty smelling feet.
Here are some shoe suggestions for you:
