Yea I'm single. NO lovelife, NO special lover and specially NO suitor. HAHA! I'm just kidding you. I have suitors but i'm not interested to exclusively dating or taking it slow momentum in between either. It's almost a month before Christmas and I'm alone under the misletoe. WHO CARES?! I'm happy. I feel complete by my own.
A Christmas wish? or even a New Year's wish? It would be, doing crazy stuffs with my friends. Movie trip. Unlimited stories. The look when we see someone attractive. The smile when we're having all same thoughts. The badass moment trying to sneak in to some university. The rooftop moments. So priceless. It's much better than having a weird, crazy and unpredictable lovelife.
Even though, naaahhhh. I STILL DON'T CARE. ((: I'm receiving overflowing love from my friends that's why I'm one lucky bastard having them. I LOVE YOU ALL sagad to the bones.

HOW TO DRESS.
"There is no such thing as an ugly woman - there are only the ones who do not know how to make themselves attractive." -Christian Dior.Oscar Wilde said that only a fool dosen't judge people by appearances. He was right. In the world we live in today the way we look really matters. It gives people signals faster than a blink of an eye - wether you are fun, clever, elegant, shy, intellectual, dowdy, sloppy, showy ... You name it. An outfit can covey all these qualities and more. Also psychiatrists say they can judge the psychological health of a person from how they dress - it can speak of optimism and openness, or despair and utter loneliness. We must be careful on how we dress.
So let's start of my topic today in starting of my blog. First, you must learn to ACCEPT your body type, EMBRACE your flaws and know your ASSETS. Here are some tips that will help you determine which type of shirts, pants and dresses will enhance what you already have and hide your not-so-flattering flab.
If you have STRAIGHT HIPS, layering is one of the things you can do to give you that illusion of fullness and curve. You can try wearing a dress over your pants, especially if you have long legs. If the weather is cold, go ahead and add a sweater. Do not be afraid to bulk up because this is precisely what you need to avoid looking so straight and wafer thin.
Skinny jeans will emphasize your thin legs, but make sure that you choose a pair that has a lighter wash. Dark colored jeans will make your legs look thinner and assert your hips. If you are a person who loves to wear skirts, it is advisable for you to choose one that has a straight cut. Jumpers can also help draw attention to your slim shape.
If you have CURVY HIPS, do not curse your hips for being wide and curvy. Although you may not look like a skinny model, there are more guys who want to see some fat on your butt and hips. What you can do to emphasize your to-die-for feminine physique is wear a shirt or blouse that clinches or wraps up your middle.
Bright colored bubble or tiered skirt can also do wonders for your shapely hips. The ruffles and the bright
colors will surely help draw attention to your assets. Another trick to accentuate your hourglass shape is
wearing a wide belt (the wider the better) so as to emphasize the difference between your waist and hips.
If you have FULL BREASTS, thank the heavens if you have the gift of full breasts that women naturally long for. Since you have been given these wonderful assets, it would be a shame if you do not flaunt them.
Emphasize your full breasts without necessarily looking like a tramp. You can do it by finding a top or blouse that has some ruches or designs near the bust.
You do not have to show flesh to make men ogle. What you actually need is a simple top dress that has a
fitted bodice. This is enough to show off your curves and shape. An important thing that women with full bust should remember is to wear a supportive bra. If your bra is not providing proper support and is too small for you, you will feel uncomfortable and your assets will become liabilities. To have cleavage and really perky-looking breasts, find a bra that has big back straps and full cups.
If you have SMALL BREASTS, having small breasts is not really something to complain about. There are a lot of things you can do to enhance your small bust. First, you can wear loose tops and blouses that have interesting and unique necklines. The exceptional designs will be the focal point of your look and not your small chest.
Plunging necklines are also ideal for you. You can show some flesh without looking promiscuous and too
exposed. Just look at how gorgeous Debra Messing and Kate Hudson appear in a dress with ultra-low
décolletage.
If you have SHORT LEGS & LONG TORSO, your hip-line height is less than half your height.
You may also have a low waist -- your waist will be lower than your bent elbow. You will have a long torso -- typically you will put on weight first on your thighs and hips. Your bottom will typically be low and heavy.

Your horizontal shape is the relationship between your chest, waist and hip-line. It is their relative proportion to each other that is important rather than their actual size. Your horizontal body type is used to identify the clothing styles that will suit you best. Although it is important to note that other factors can change some of these recommendations, such as face shape, neck and shoulder size and prominent features.

To do this assessment stand in front of a full length mirror. A long straight object such as a long ruler or a broom handle will also be useful to work out whether your hip-line is narrower, wider, or the same width as your bust-line. The easiest way to see this is to hold the ruler under your arm pit and rest it on your hip.
