			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2083" title="prada" src="http://www.qack.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/prada.jpg" alt="prada" width="320" height="480" /><br />
BUY luxury, buy quality, buy something that will become an iconic piece in your wardrobe &#8211; from Miuccia&#8217;s Prada&#8217;s chandelier dresses, to Jil Sander&#8217;s raw and ripped chiffon, to Dolce&#8217;s knickers or McQueen&#8217;s metallic snakeskin marvels, to Lanvin&#8217;s most beautiful dresses ever, to Peter Pilotto&#8217;s prints, to Burberry&#8217;s trench dresses, if you buy one thing for spring/summer, make it a big story. If the recession isn&#8217;t letting up yet, buy one thing and the thrill will last.</p>
<p>If hemlines are to be believed as the rule of all things financial, though, things are certainly looking up &#8211; skirts are creeping up the thigh and bottom-revealing bloomers, henceforth known as hotpantaloons, first appeared in New York and bred across the fashion cities fast.</p>
<p>While there was a touch of sparkle in the front row of every single show, it&#8217;s a trend that is built to last and whether you wear it on your tights, on lamé socks with high heels, around your neck, woven into your chiffon evening gowns or tied to your handbag, a little bit of glitter always does a girl good. Shoes are still big statements but heels are coming down too; kitten heels have even been mentioned and so have clogs (Chanel, Celine, Louis Vuitton).</p>
<p>The big story for summer though, is nudity &#8211; the vast majority of shows opened with nude, ice-cream colours, making cut and drapery the big style statements as opposed to eye-popping colours. Where last summer we obsessed about colour blocking, next will be about subtleties of tone: nude with peach with washed out nutmeg, or grey with icy blue. A general lack of clothing will be approved of too &#8211; your underwear must look its best next summer because if it&#8217;s not on show it&#8217;s not worth wearing &#8211; only to be covered by swathes of knotted and ruffled sheer chiffon &#8211; and a touch of lace will keep things interesting (Stella McCartney, Fendi).</p>
<p>White is always a trend for summer, but 2010 is expecting a full washout &#8211; bleached cotton came tailored and masculine or bulging and ruffled. And if you want colour, make it a check (Christopher Kane, Louis Vuitton).</p>
<p>So what to buy, if you will be shopping? Party dresses &#8211; lots of them, to be worn day and night: with interesting (and forgiving) folds around the hip for added shape. A jumpsuit &#8211; single shouldered or strapless if you dare. Loose trousers that taper to the ankle, preferably in silk. Bring shoes down a level or two, and if you venture from the washed out palette, make it a bold, tribal or ethnic print (Dries Van Noten). A trench coat, long or short (or turned into a party dress at Burberry). A belt &#8211; skinny ribbons or wide leather versions; the waist intends to allow you to show off your curves next summer. And if your curves are that good, swimwear is teeny weeny as can be.</p>
<p>And everybody&#8217;s new favourite model? Australian model Abbey Lee Kershaw appeared in all the key shows, surely with plenty of ad campaigns to follow. Certainly no recession hangover for her.</p>

Cut-Away Swimwear / Bikinis
Taking their cues from the cutaway clothing trend, cutaway monokinis are the must have piece for 2010. Infrequently demure, this is the one bikini trend that isn&#8217;t for the wall flower but can be styled to ooze both sex and sophistication without ever saying &#8216;easy&#8217;.

<h3>Cut-Away Swimwear / Bikinis</h3>
<p>Taking their cues from the cutaway clothing trend, <strong>cutaway monokinis</strong> are the must have piece for 2010. Infrequently demure, this is the one bikini trend that isn&#8217;t for the wall flower but can be styled to ooze both sex and sophistication without ever saying &#8216;easy&#8217;.</p>
<ol>
<li>Not as tightly fitting as other &#8217;spray on&#8217; monokinis this season, Amanda Wakeley&#8217;s white one-piece pairs a deep neck line with cut-away sides.</li>
<li>A two-piece with boob-tube, this bikini by Carmen Marc uses the cut-away trend with subtlety. All the same, these cutaway briefs are more than eye catching.</li>
<li>A monokini by Carmen Marc, this swimwear piece is equally as subtle as the aforementioned two-piece, but far more demure.</li>
<li>Similar to Amanda Wakeley&#8217;s white one-piece <em>(1)</em> this screen-printed monokini is from Miss Sixty.</li>
<li>The most luxurious of the pieces featured, this almost-two-piece monokini from Gottex pairs a halter-neck top, joined briefs, and gold piping.</li>
<li>- 10. are all from the one catwalk which screamed sex, decadence, and youth; the one catwalk that really grabbed my eye at New York Fashion Week; Herv?© L?©ger by Max Azria Spring/Summer 2009. With enough cut-away than you can possibly wear throughout Summer, these are knock-out pieces that you&#8217;re not necessarily going to want to get wet.</li>
</ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-2019 alignright" title="flowers" src="http://www.qack.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/flowers.jpg" alt="flowers" width="200" height="300" />     Colors have different meanings and just looking at them triggers the production of hormones in our bodies, whether to calm us and relax us, bring us energy, boost our creativity, help us sleep, relieve our pain, or reduce our anxiety.</p>
<p>How can you make colors work for you? Try to put that color where you can see it all the time, most probably as elements of the decors of your home.</p>
<p>Here is a list of colors and the qualities associated with them:</p>
<p><strong>Red</strong>:  strength, perseverance, passion, leadership. Red stimulates the appetite.</p>
<p><strong>Orange</strong>:  freedom, enthusiasm, charm, gregariousness. Orange is a social color and makes people feel welcome.</p>
<p><strong>Yellow</strong>: humor, open-mindedness, imagination, originality. Yellow is the color of creativity and communication.</p>
<p><strong>Green</strong>: harmony, balance, generosity, kindness. Green evokes images of prosperity.</p>
<p><strong>Blue:</strong> tranquility, intelligence, honesty, spirituality. Calmness, coolness and rest are always associated with blue.</p>
<p><strong>Indigo</strong>: perception, purity, intuition, receptiveness. Indigo helps the mind enter a meditative state.</p>
<p><strong>Violet</strong>: creativity, enigma, mystery, power. Violet, like yellow, also helps the mind be creative.</p>
<p>***Color your world and be transformed and healed***</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>1. It starts with you</p>
<blockquote><p>To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln, you are as happy as<br />
you make up your mind to be. Research has shown that<br />
happiness is a state of being, not of having or doing or<br />
achieving. Nor is happiness a destination. People often<br />
say, &#8220;I just want to be happy&#8221; or &#8220;I just want to have a<br />
happy marriage&#8221; as if that is a future goal or place in<br />
time. The problem is, they never get there. That&#8217;s<br />
because the future is&#8230; in the future. And the only true<br />
destination is your final day on earth. And then it&#8217;s too<br />
late. So make the decision to be happier starting today.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>There&#8217;s a relationship benefit as well. The happier you<br />
are with yourself and your life, the more attractive you<br />
are to your partner. Another way to look at this is: if you<br />
were someone else, would you marry you? Start today to<br />
work on being the kind of person you would want to<br />
know, to date, and to marry. If you&#8217;re not that kind of<br />
person now, how can you expect your spouse to stay<br />
attracted or stay passionate?</p></blockquote>
<p>2. There&#8217;s you, there&#8217;s him/her, and then there&#8217;s &#8220;we&#8221;.</p>
<blockquote><p>You don&#8217;t have to give up your identity or be known<br />
solely as your spouse&#8217;s partner.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>It also doesn&#8217;t work when two people each do their own<br />
thing without regard to their partner&#8217;s wishes and<br />
feelings. Marriage is, and should be, more than<br />
cohabitation. As the marriage vows state, &#8220;two shall be<br />
as one&#8221;. That &#8220;one&#8221; is neither you nor him. The &#8220;one&#8221; is<br />
a third entity: the relationship, the marriage, the &#8220;we&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>The &#8220;we&#8221; is what you share, what you have in common,<br />
the support and nurturing that you cannot give yourself.<br />
Think companionship, intimacy, and sharing.</p></blockquote>
<p>3. You leave behind your emotional baggage</p>
<blockquote><p>Are you really over your previous relationship? If not, you<br />
can&#8217;t fully commit to your spouse. Likewise, if you are<br />
still Daddy&#8217;s little girl or Mommy&#8217;s boy, you are not in<br />
control of your own life. Therefore, you cannot fully enter<br />
into an adult relationship of mutual sharing and support.<br />
You can&#8217;t be accountable to your spouse if you still have<br />
to please Mommy or Daddy.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>You can&#8217;t reach new heights as a person as long as<br />
you&#8217;re dragging around your emotional suitcases. And,<br />
it&#8217;s not fair to your partner. If you&#8217;re dating but not in a<br />
committed relationship right now, consider a time out<br />
while you unpack those bags and resolve those issues<br />
that keep you from being your own man or woman. If<br />
you are committed, a relationship coach can help you<br />
stow your baggage so you can be there completely for<br />
your partner.</p></blockquote>
<p>4. The marriage comes first</p>
<blockquote><p>Marriage is supposed to be the strongest bond between<br />
two people. Parents come and go; children grow and<br />
leave. Your spouse is only person to stay with you the<br />
rest of your time on this planet.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Women who say their children come first, usually can<br />
never let the children grow up and become independent<br />
adults because then the primary relationship in these<br />
women&#8217;s lives would end. So the children never<br />
emotionally leave home and are forever dependent on<br />
the parent. This delights the women because they are<br />
not willing to have their children grow up emotionally and<br />
become independent adults.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Women who say their children come first also seem so<br />
surprised when their mates eventually decide to leave for<br />
someone else who WILL put them first. And finally, when<br />
children are the center of a women&#8217;s life, and the<br />
children eventually leave, the woman typically feels lost.<br />
Her reason for existing the last 18-22 years has just<br />
moved out. And if she should turn to her partner after a<br />
20 year emotional abscense, it&#8217;s like going to your high<br />
school reunion. You used to know them but its not the<br />
same now because they&#8217;ve changed.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>When partners put the marriage first, friends, relatives,<br />
and acquaintences are still important but they&#8217;re not<br />
primary. The man and woman, as the principals in the<br />
relationship, are the combined heads of their household.<br />
As such they look to eath other-and no one else-for their<br />
primary comfort and support.</p></blockquote>
<p>5. Your marriage is your top priority.</p>
<blockquote><p>You didn&#8217;t get married to commute two hours a day,<br />
work at the office 60 hours a week, and pay on a<br />
mortgage for 30 years, did you? You probably got<br />
married to share your life-not your bills-with that special<br />
someone. During life&#8217;s ups and especially during life&#8217;s<br />
downs, keep in mind why you married in the first place.<br />
It wasn&#8217;t so you could get a better job, buy a better car,<br />
or obsess over your favorite sports team. Once upon a<br />
time, your partner was the most important thing in this<br />
world to you. If you value your relationship, he or she<br />
still is. Start acting like it again today and every day.</p></blockquote>
<p>6. Don&#8217;t compare</p>
<blockquote><p>This holds true in your life as well as in your marriage.<br />
There will always be a couple that seems happier,<br />
wealthier, sexier, and more perfect than you two are. So<br />
what? Their happiness doesn&#8217;t increase or diminish your<br />
happiness. Neither does their money, their jobs, their<br />
house, or their prettiness. All that matters is whether you<br />
for you.</p></blockquote>
<p>7. Don&#8217;t wonder &#8220;what if?&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>Wondering what it would be like to be with another<br />
person-for a night or for a lifetime-is self-delusion and is<br />
really unfair to your spouse. You see other people<br />
socially when they are at their best. You see your spouse<br />
when he/she is at his best, her average, and sometimes<br />
at her worst. If you could swap mates, guess what?<br />
You&#8217;d see that person at his/her worst, and you probably<br />
wouldn&#8217;t like what you see. You already have a lot<br />
invested in your partner. Take care of that investment.<br />
The payoff is usally greater than starting all over again.</p></blockquote>
<p>8. Realize that love can grow.</p>
<blockquote><p>As much as you were in love when you got married, your<br />
love and commitment to each other can grow over the<br />
years. Despite all the old married jokes and cliches,<br />
marriage can get better, not worse, with time. The<br />
longer you&#8217;ve been married, the more history you have<br />
together.The triumphs and disappointments, the<br />
successes and the failures, all are part of sharing a life<br />
together. And that history is unique to you. No one else<br />
has that or can duplicate it. This is why a man who<br />
leaves his middle aged wife for a younger woman<br />
eventually wants to come back. With his wife he has a<br />
history-a shared past. With the new woman there is only<br />
the present. Leaving his wife permanently is like leaving<br />
himself behind as well. Since she is a part of his past,<br />
she is the best person to be a part of his future.</p></blockquote>
<p>9. Commitment means &#8220;no matter what&#8221;.</p>
<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s as simple as making the decision to be totally<br />
committed to your spouse and to the relationship. No<br />
matter what happens: financially, health wise, or<br />
otherwise. No matter what. Once the two of you have<br />
decided to stay &#8220;no matter what&#8221;, there is no question of<br />
stay or go, yes or no.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Write this down: &#8220;ALL RELATIONSHIPS HAVE ISSUES&#8221;.<br />
Happy relationships always have issues. Unhappy<br />
relationships certainly have issues. It&#8217;s just that in happy<br />
relationships, the couples identify the issues, negotiate<br />
the issues, and come to terms with the issues. Couples<br />
in unhappy relationships deny, ignore, put up, or run<br />
away.<br />
Once the two of you have made the decision &#8220;no matter<br />
what&#8221; the emphasis is on the we. And, since we is not<br />
you and not him, the only positions &#8220;we&#8221; have are the<br />
ones you&#8217;ve decided together. In short, all problems are<br />
negotiable because there are no his problems or her<br />
problems. When one partner has a problem, just having<br />
the problem should be a problem for the other partner.<br />
Therefore, all problems are shared problems. Their<br />
problems require their solutions.</p></blockquote>
<p>10. Believe that a happy marriage is not only possible, it&#8217;s<br />
yours for the making.</p>
<blockquote><p>It won&#8217;t happen by itself. It takes intention, commitment,<br />
and practice. But the many couples who have happy,<br />
blissful, and satisfying marriages are proof that it is<br />
possible. Just choose to be happy, and choose to be<br />
happily married.<br />
Yes, you&#8217;ll still have to work at it. But the rewards are so<br />
much greater than the effort. Besdies, being single and<br />
looking takes effort; being divorced and looking again<br />
takes effort. Spend the effort inside your marriage and<br />
stay married. Happily married.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If we all stick to the rules in the game of dating life would be smooth sailing rather than the battlefield of lies, deceptions, and betrayal. Men are man, but women often do the damage to themselves. Especially when they do not want to see through the signs or trust Mother Nature give to us all intuitions.</p>
<p>The top 10 reasons to not trust the man are simple. If we all adhere to the basic fundamentals of these helpful tips maybe less tears will be shed all over the world.</p>
<p>10. You know you can not trust a guy when all his friends know he has got a bit on the side or worst a long distant lover be it an emotional or physical relationship. It still spells disaster no matter how you look at it.</p>
<p>9. You cannot trust a guy when you have to resort to an entrapment pregnancy to hang onto him. I believe it soon after is called in the modern day language a &#8220;single mom&#8221;. Girls why would you think a man would want you with a child if they did not want you without a child. Some women if they are lucky end up with a daddy for their kid not a man for themselves.</p>
<p>8. You know you can not trust a guy when he never really claims you to the world, but instead your are running around claiming yourself much like someone who has the unfortunate position of being the last to know. It is double worrying if you have witnessed the woman before also running proclaiming their relationship when you knew from him they were over long before you came along. Definitely, not a good sign.</p>
<p>7. You want to be suspicious of a guy who at the start of your relationship suddenly piles on his work load making it so he has to be as many as 15 hours a day away from you. He is defiantly trying to put up some obvious barriers around himself there, especially when he does not need the money let say for instance.</p>
<p>6. When a guy wants instantly after the spit from another woman to be involved in the life of their x is sometimes ground to assume some signs are present. It is great when x&#8217;s can be friends, but when you have pursued the man and all he wants to do is work with his x-wife, his x-fiancé, and the woman he left his wife for and there is nothing you can do about it trust is to be questioned. Normally, it shows there is a lack of respect for your interests in the matter. Maybe, even some linger going on there.</p>
<p>5. A big sign that you cannot trust a man is when you never have &#8220;the discussion&#8221;. To be exact that would be an actual discussion in depth about being in a relationship together complete with future projections. Just shooting the breeze about how many kids one would like to have in a matter of factual manner is not the same thing as discussing the whole are we or we will be a couple. Some woman make the mistake of assuming a luring of the guy they are desperate for into bed instantly means they will be a couple. Hint ladies if a guy does not have the discussion within days maybe weeks of the one night stand than that was all it was. The risk of no discussion, but continued pursuits of the guy by you will only result in his taking as a friend. The dreaded friends zone women rarely make it back from.</p>
<p>4. While sex is discretionary when it comes to relationships, if you have sought to base your pursuit of a guy on sex and he refuses you with the exception of a one or two night stand a year later, really it would suggest a little time wasting on your part and clearly he is getting is emotional fill from somewhere else. Which is why there is not the physical interest in you. Woman who do not know, man are simple, but surprisingly when they are in love with a woman and that woman is not you they will be the most mystifying creatures on the earth.</p>
<p>3.You cannot trust a guy who is crazy in love with another woman. Come girls really is any man really worth your humiliation. This should be the big no no!</p>
<p>2. When he wants your kids and not you. This is especially important for single moms who want the guy so much, but in truth discover the guy just want their kids. This is very well depicted in the Gerry Maguire film starring Tom Cruise and Renee Zellwger. While a lesser woman would stoop so low as to maneuver the situation through the guys interest in her children even to the extent of convincing themselves that the affection for the children will somehow transfer from the guy to her. In real life that rarely happens and why put your kid through the emotional manipulation just because you can not land a guy.</p>
<p>1. When he leave his wife, but not for you. It is all and good well to fall in love, but when the matter involves wrecking a marriage. There can be the measure of waiting until a marriage naturally comes to an end. This is always best, because you know you will not be the rebound relationship. Secondly, a clear conscientious in knowing you had not shacked up with the guy before the divorce ink was dry. Worst mistake in this scenario is when you know or discover the guy did not leave his marriage for you, but instead has left the marriage for a woman he has been smitten with through out his now ended marriage. He will never be satisfied until he finally has that woman who by then he, of course, has made the only object of his desire.</p>
<p>These helpful tips should assist some woman with the navigation that is known in the world to us as the relationship. Ultimately, if you do not have self-respect you are going get the guy who will never respect you. He may hang with you, like your kids in some instances, but love never comes into it no matter how you try or throw yourself at him. Men are simple until women complicate things through avoidance of the realty. Nothing good come of refusals to accept things not being as fantasized it would be. What men are which does through off even the most astute of woman is unpredictable. When they love you too much like become like a deer in head lights, but when they do not love at all it really is time to turn towards greener pastures. There is always the fish and there is always the sea.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1973" title="0809-nail-color-trend-2-de" src="http://www.qack.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/0809-nail-color-trend-2-de.jpg" alt="0809-nail-color-trend-2-de" width="375" height="500" /><br />
Here&#8217;s How:</h3>
<p>1.   Your nails are going to reflect what you eat. If you are living on burgers and fries, don&#8217;t expect your nails to be strong and healthy. Sorry, it just doesn&#8217;t work that way. Add a tub of yogurt and you are on your way!</p>
<p>2.   Get into the habit of wearing rubber gloves as often as possible. You often forget the abuse your nails actually take. Consider how often they are in water&#8230; just for starters.</p>
<p>3.   Gardening is another seemingly harmless activity that all the summer magazines suggest to you. While I agree that the exercise is a plus, it&#8217;s not so great on your nails. I use gardening gloves and my nails still get dirty, but it&#8217;s better than nothing and I have no broken nails at the end of the day.</p>
<p>4.    While watching tv, moisturize your hands AND nails with your favorite hand lotion. It&#8217;s not only relaxing, it helps strengthen the nails.</p>
<p>5.   Cuticles can also use a little attention, but go gently. They need to be pampered and dry cuticles also contribute to hangnails, so be sure to spend a little time on them daily.</p>
<p>6.   Luckily at the moment, nails are fashionably short. That means that there is less nail to snap off and that is a bonus. Keep them trimmed and your nails will last longer.</p>
<p>7.   While some nails benefit from not using polish, mine seem to love the stuff. If they are polished, I seem to notice them more and devote a little more attention to them. They really seem to like that.</p>
<p>8.   Keep emery boards everywhere. The worse thing that can happen to pretty nails is a snag and your teeth.</p>
