There’s no need to remember to buy — and lug in — every week heavy crates of plastic water bottles, just remember to get your hands on a new Samsung fridge filter when it’s time. You can save your strength for other demonstrations of brawn (and physique) while contributing greatly to space-saving initiatives at local landfills.

A further piece of advice, when you’re buying your water filter or other component part — say, a DLP lamp — make sure you know the correct part number. Something like “bp96-01073a” can become a little bit difficult to recall, with complete accuracy, once you’ve gone out the door and belted out (with feeling) four tunes on the road. Write the code down so you don’t have to make extra trips to the store or spend time mailing back an incorrect part.

The easiest thing to do is to buy your parts online. That way you’re near the physical Samsung waste toner container you need to replace and the store listing your correct product part on the screen. It’s just simpler to double-check that way.

The three button suit

11th May 2010

The three button suit seems to have lost its charm, and is not as popular as the two button suit. Amongst men’s suits, the two button suit somehow seems the most elegant. The air surrounding a two button suit is one that is dignified. A three button suit if not worn properly will only make you look shapeless and untidy. The cut of the three button suit does not sit well, and the fully buttoned up appearance could make you look slightly stuffy.

With a two button suit however there is very little that could go wrong. The three button suit does not allow for a larger display of a man’s shirt and tie, which would otherwise make him look sleek and even younger perhaps. The shorter lapels on the three button suits makes it look less elegant and also makes the wearer look restricted. This look of restriction however could be how you are wearing it, and yes, there is a ‘right’ way to wearing a three button suit.

The buttons – fashion experts cite that keeping only the middle button fastened makes the three button suit look far more elegant. Ensure that your tailor makes the jacket to fit you in such a way, that with keeping the middle button secured, you can create a very attractive X shape. This X shaped fall is quite appealing rather than the suit falling straight, making it look rather dull.

The fit – unlike with tuxedos, the three button suit will not show off the shape of your body unless tailored well. With most wearers of the three button suit, what goes wrong is that the jacket is too loose and thus all its appeal is lost.

Sometimes it is fun to have a room or even each room in the house in a different theme. Doing up your bedroom, for instance, in retro home décor will make it feel cozy and nostalgic. But before you do it, give it some thought and plan it out.

Getting collectors level items is expensive and therefore doing up the whole room in that way will not be affordable. This is where you have to make some careful choices. Identify the items that will be used constantly – Pillow cases, bedspreads, etc. For these items, you can go the route of replicas as they are cheaper. This is because replicas are reproductions of the original design and therefore have a much lower market value. But when it comes to things like curtain sets, you should consider getting a vintage set. Just knowing it is forty to fifty years old will make it feel special and also give the room a nice and comfy feel.

While you’re at it trying to get your bedroom jazzed up, why not go the whole hog and get some vintage clothes as well?  Why not try some 60′s clothing or even 50′s clothing and see how it looks on you? Styles always have a way of coming around and even big Hollywood stars wear vintage clothing now and then to gala events.

These days it is easy to find vintage and retro clothes. There are many websites online, like www.vintagetrends.com that offer an extensive and certified collection for you to peruse. So go on, take the plunge and go vintage!

Historian Richard Holmes once famously said that “there’s something dandy in all military uniforms,” which might explain why old military uniforms are frequently in fashion. Top fashion designers have frequently turned to the military for inspiration. As recently as 2008, fashion catwalks in Europe were teeming with Napoleonic-inspired jackets and admiral coats.

Even something as simple as vintage scarves takes on a unique edge when they have a military look. For some people, a military look can be a response to current military actions around the world. For others, it’s simply a way to have fun and bring a unique look to their wardrobe.

No matter what retro style you are looking to create, you can find the perfect pieces at top online retailer Vintage Trends. Whether you want a stiff, regimented military look or want to get loose with vintage disco clothing, you can find the best quality items at low prices through Vintage Trends.

According to MSNBC, the new bride is a “budget bride,” less concerned about a designer dress than saving money for a down payment on a house. But every bride—and groom, for that matter—still wants to have a meaningful, memorable wedding, even if some things have to be scaled back. If you’re looking to cut costs so that you can give your guests Chinese wedding favors and still throw a great party without breaking the bank, here are a few ideas:

  • Skip the deejay and plug in your iPod. This way, you can preselect the reception music rather than rely on someone else’s (sometimes questionable) taste in music.
  • Consider candlelight. Candlelight, as we all know, sets the mood and works very well for smaller, more intimate weddings. Just be sure to warn guests to keep their Japanese wedding favors away from the flame!
  • Rent rather than purchase table linens and lights. Renting these two items can cut costs considerably and also customize the look and feel of a ceremony and reception to the couple’s preferences. Paper lanterns are one way to set the look of your reception apart.
  • Hold the reception at a friend or family member’s house rather than renting a space. Just be willing to help with the preparation and send a thank-you note and gift afterwards!
  • Email invitations rather than mail them. You’ll not only be saving on paper and postage costs, you’ll also be doing the earth a favor.

There are lots of other ways to hold a recession-friendly wedding. Decide what’s most important to you and plan the details accordingly!
