8 Hot Jewelry Trends For The Fashionable AND Fabulous – Part 2

This is the second part of our two part series on what’s hot in jewelry this holiday season.

Trend #5 – Chandelier Earrings

Nothing is more glamorous than a beautiful set of chandelier earrings dancing off your earlobes. They move when you do, highlighting your hair and face and adding elegance and playfulness to your outfit. These come in many styles, colors, gems, diamonds, crystals, settings, etc. Chandelier earrings can look amazing with an evening gown and blue jeans and a t-shirt.

The key to trends is to not wear them all at the same time! Pick one and run with it. Next time, pick another. Experiment with the trends to see what feels right for you and works with your lifestyle and wardrobe. Remember, too, that trends come and go. If being trendy isn’t your thing, then default to the classic looks that tend to stay in style. You can’t […]

8 Hot Jewelry Trends For The Fashionable AND Fabulous – Part 1

A shiny, sparkly pretty piece of jewelry given as a gift can warm a woman’s heart like nothing else! And since most of us like to remain fashionable AND fabulous, we thought you’d probably like to know what’s hot in jewelry this holiday season. In case you need to find that perfect piece for a loved one, or perhaps pick out something your loved one will buy for YOU (we prefer that scenario). Finding that perfect piece can be nerve-wracking. Depending upon their style and taste, you’ll either end up with a winner or later returning a dud. How on earth do you decide? How do you know what he/she will like? This is especially difficult if you’re a man shopping for your lady!

Living Life through Balance and Harmony – Success Sunday

Cultivating balance and harmony throughout your life can impact you on many levels. While it can sometimes be difficult to keep everything on an even keel, when you do, the flow in your life makes an amazing difference.

Establishing balance and harmony means taking a look at all areas of your life. By actively participating in all of them, you automatically begin to create more positive experiences and fewer negative ones, plus, you live in a more balanced way. It’s not easy, however, to live a balanced life because competing needs in different areas will demand more of your time. So the goal isn’t total balance, but an acknowledgement that life must be lived in a way that addresses the needs of all areas AND that sometimes one area will demand more than others will.

A great […]

Seizing Opportunity in a Down Economy

When the economy takes a downturn, everyone suffers – or do they?

Savvy entrepreneurs look for opportunities to capitalize on areas that other people might ignore. Instead of hunkering down to weather the bad news, they study the market identifying potential areas that are ripe for development. Probably the best example of this comes from the Great Depression. During that difficult time for the U.S., more millionaires were made than at any other time in history.

The Great Depression began for a number of reasons. A big factor was too much credit being extended to businesses and individuals, which pushed the overall debt load above the available cash reserves. The credit debacle reached a critical mass and the market crashed in 1929. Companies closed leaving over-extended employees with no income. […]

Animal Companions and the Holidays

Let’s face it, the holidays are stressful. Gifts to buy, decorations to hang, family issues to manage, it can be exhausting. It’s easy to forget that others might find it stressful, too. Like your animal companions.

Look at it from their perspective – new and unusual foods are available for snatching, abandoned yummy drinks, seasonal decorations that may look good enough to eat (or actually are good to eat!), not to mention all the new people visiting! It’s enough to put the most happy-go-lucky animal over the edge emotionally and physically. Here are some simple tips to keep your furry friends relaxed, safe and healthy during the holidays.

Food and Drink

Ah temptation. Your dog (and maybe cat) won’t have any issues having a quick nosh on something delectable that’s been left unattended. And while this might make […]

Gold Holiday Gifts

I went looking for gifts the other day (it IS the holiday season after all), and came across some very interesting things I thought I’d share with you. If you’re going to buy any of these keep in mind the person who told you about them!

Now, I’ll be the first to say these are the over-the-top kind of gifts. But hey, a girl can dream. 🙂

8GB Specialty USB – Gold Nugget – a mere $2,347 online (a steal)! Now you can save your data on what will arguably be the poshest USB of anyone in your near vicinity. As the website states: “For those with expensive tastes we offer a gold bar. While not a true gold bar, this may be the next best thing. A retractable a USB drive, preserves […]

Brainstorming New Ideas – Success Sunday

It happens to all of us. We reach that dead end where we simply run out of fresh ideas and we helplessly fumble for solutions that have escaped us. What can we do to get the creative juices flowing again?

One of the best strategies to resolve this dilemma is to use a brainstorming session. The basic technique is easy as 1-2-3:

Think of many ideas in a short period of time.
Jot them all down.
Go back and evaluate each idea’s possibilities.

These brainstorming sessions can be invaluable when trying to come up with fresh, outside the box, ideas so you can work toward an effective solution to a difficult challenge.

Here are five tips to help you make the most of your brainstorming sessions:

Get outside input. Instead of going […]

Buy Small, Win Big

I know I’m not the only one who feels that the December holiday season has become too commercialized and focuses on buying, buying, buying. I bet there are kids today who don’t really even understand the “real” meaning behind the holiday they celebrate because it’s hidden behind a mountain of presents. Now I love getting gifts as much as the next person, but it seems to me that if we spent more time thinking about what someone truly could use, we might change our gifting habits and the true meaning of giving would shine through. As I’ve termed it – instead of giving big presents – we instead revel in the Presence of the spirit of the season.

One way to do this is to honor the small business owner. It’s often a knee jerk reaction to head straight to the mall to shop the chain stores. But you might […]
