Fashion Tips

High in antioxidants, flavonoids, and phenolic compounds, apples help guard the skin from oxidative stress or the harmful effects of free radicals in the environment. Also, these nutrients help to repair damaged skin from harsh effects of UV rays and air pollution.

As ladies with an apple shape body carry their weight around their middle and have broader shoulders, the main goal is to even out your proportions by drawing the eye to either your décolletage or enviable legs instead: choose V-neck tops and dresses and avoid halter-necks and a shoulder-baring tops.

What no longer works for you, will most certainly provide value for someone else. Check with family and friends to see who may be in need for clothing refreshment. Give your clothes to people who might love to wear them, don't throw them away!

Don't force your image because your clothing is an extension of who you are, so wear your comfortable flats, for example, and avoid the latest trends, if they are uncomfortable, just because all of your friends are wearing them. Wear clothing that feels like YOU. Always wear comfortable outfits.

The first step in establishing your sense of style is to build your message. Ask yourself how you'd like to be perceived by the people you interact with. Then choose the way you want to represent yourself: stylish, compassionate, powerful, sophisticated... an external package that shows the world exactly who you are on the inside.

When packing, be sure to place plastic storage bags around any lotions, creams or serums. That way, if something opens or breaks during your travels, your clothes won't be ruined by the spill. If you're packing fragile bottles that are breakable, use some cushioning material, such as bubble wrap, to keep things from shattering.
