Plus Size Dresses: What Is Flattering

A woman whose body requires her to wear plus size dresses takes a bit of time to fix herself up appropriately. This means she has to carefully pick her wardrobe for the day. Her dress must effectively camouflage her physical flaws. More often than not, she prefers black and other dark color tones to address this need.

This situation is not a helpless one. Plus size dresses are flattering when worn with confidence and creativity. Here are some fantastic tricks and tips to make a flattering style with plus size dresses.

Pick the right tone colors

Black is an amazing color. There are also shades of grey and charcoal. Wear a brown dress, in light and dark shades. Dark blue, dark green, dark violet, dark red wine color, maroon and similar color hues are also good choices to flatter your persona.

Stick to dress styles that look great on your body size

There are different dress styles to choose from to create your personal look. A flowing skirt hides big hips. An A-line blouse conceals a heavy stomach. A top with a V neckline draws away attention from your chest. You can wear ruffles to camouflage a big neck and arms. Wear sleeves up to your elbows to hide big arms. Avoid wearing clinging pants and tights. Look for those that simply flow down your legs.

Stay away from tops and dresses with big prints as these just make you look heavier than your actual size. Wear horizontal stripes that are just the right size to downsize your appearance.

If you like wearing prints- flowers, circles, figures and other types, then prefer to wear smaller prints with a dark-colored background to balance your look.

Style your feet with great shoes

Your feet look longer and slimmer with high heels. Flats are good when wearing pants. Wear 2-inch pumps to create height in your appearance.

It helps to accessorize

Wear beautiful accessories to draw away attention from your heavy side. Wear dangling earrings and a long necklace to add creative flair to your aura. These ornaments help harmonize your total look. Just keep in mind to wear the right size of accessories to get the glam look.

Today, women who require plus size dresses are happy with a variety of styles created for them. The fashion industry knows the necessity for plus size dressing. Fashion designers create gorgeous lines of dresses for women who do not have to worry about their body shape. It is no longer difficult for any woman to look for plus size dresses. There are many and most styles are created to flatter their body size.

Not So Great Wyatt Earp

Since the passing of our Old West, legends concerning famous western characters have become so distorted and overworked, they appear more like myths and historical fiction then true history accounts. Case in question - Wyatt Earp, famous U. S. Marshal of Tombstone, Arizona. His outstanding feats and accomplishments both good and bad have been damaged almost beyond belief and reason.
To most historians of western history Wyatt Earp was a courageous man of action and wore his white hat proudly. His legendary feats were quickly lifted to preposterous proportions and he seemed to be the greatest western lawman to pin a tin badge on his shirt. Colorful newspaper and magazine accounts further aided the legend and his reputation rose to greater heights.

But there supposedly was another side to the stories. Over the years more detailed information has surfaced hinting that maybe Wyatt Earp was not so great after all. In fact instead of a hero of the western frontier he was nothing more than a gunfighter, itinerant gambler and a hard-headed saloon keeper. I have my own opinions and remain on the fence. As for further information, I'm sure it will simply add a few more pages to western fiction.

The Old West produced a large number of different varieties of legendary gunfighters. Most of them, good and bad, have received the same treatment as Wyatt Earp. Overnight they became heroes and were headlines in a newspaper. Of course, there were exceptions. Bill Hickok had a somewhat of a mild beginning. So one can have his or her mythical hero anyway they prefer. It depends on what kind of literature you choose to read and feel good after reading. One thing for sure, Wyatt Earp was damn good with a six-gun.

Earp is most often portrayed as a sleepy-eyed, laid back kind of fellow, very fast with a gun, and he knew how to use it to his advantage. You did not want to tangle with the badge totin' lawman unless you were looking for trouble and had a death wish. Several men tried him but it was Earp that died in his old age. That tells it all.

It is also true that Wyatt Earp came from a large family of fighting men. His father served in our bloody Civil War and later became a lawman. Earp's brothers, Virgil, Morgan, James, and Warren were handy with firearms as well. Some of them later shared in Wyatt's notoriety as a lawman.
In his personal writings Earp claimed he kept his family in fresh meat due to his ability as a hunter of wild game. His rifles were a variety of cap and ball weapons, Colts, Remington, Starr, and others. At this time in history, weapons were as much a part of a man's apparel as his broad-brimmed Stetson hat, high-heeled boots, and long spurs. A firearm was needed to bag game for the table and self-preservation. There is no positive information as to what kind of weapon Earp used in his early years that I could find.
In later years after Earp became a lawman and his name begin to appear in newspapers on a regular basis, controversy raised its ugly head. It concerned Earp's status as a lawman and his actual rank. He was a member of the Wichita, Kansas, law enforcement in Dodge City. He and two of his brothers later went to Tombstone, Arizona, where they opened a saloon.

Wyatt received some praise for his law work in Kansas where he supposedly was well liked by the citizens. This report appeared in the July 7, 1877, Dodge City Times: "It is not a good policy to draw a gun on Wyatt Earp unless you got the drop and mean to burn gunpowder without preliminary talk."
Earp traveled throughout the west during his lifetime, his rip-snorting escapades as a gunman following him like a dark cloud. There was always some fool-hearted, young buck ready and willing to face the famous Wyatt Earp to further his own reputation. Few of them actually gave it a try, for looking into Earp's cold eyes was to see death itself.

Lawless cow towns, mining camps and railheads such as Wichita, Dodge City, Deadwood, and Tombstone gave birth to other men such as Wyatt Earp. There were the Masterson brothers, Bill Tilghman, Doc Holiday, Luke Short, Hardin, William Boney, and a host of other gunfighters. Wyatt Earp's outstanding career intermingled with most of them at one time or another.

About this time in our western history a new and note worthy weapon came on the scene. It was the Army Colt Single Action Pistol,.45 caliber. It became known by other names-such as The Frontier Six-Shooter, Peacemaker, Equalizer, and The Weapon That Won the West. Like other gunfighters, Wyatt Earp quickly used the gun to further enhance his reputation.

In Wyatt Earp's biography it states that Wyatt spent some time in Kansas City's Market Square, a meeting place for men to talk about guns, models, methods of shooting, and how to carry them. Earp's preference was to tote a pistol on each side of his body in an open holster slung low on his leg. His favorite weapon was his noted "Buntline Special." Ned Buntline, alias Edward Z. E. Judson, was a well-known pulp writer for the Wild West Magazine. Also he was a promoter and press agent for the famous Buffalo Bill Cody.
In Stuart N. Lake's biography of Wyatt Earp, Lake said the Buntline presented five twelve-inch barrel Colts to well-known Kansas lawmen: Wyatt Earp, Neal Brown, Charlie Bassett, Bat Masterson, and noted Oklahoma lawman, Bill Tilghman. It was Earp who made the Buntline pistol famous. The movies and TV added to its reputation. It was more than anyone could have dreamed in 1876.

Now, deception rears its ugly head again. It was said the five Buntline weapons were accompanied with a walnut shoulder stock. The Colt factory has no evidence to back up this claim. They do list Colt pistols being shipped with a ten and a sixteen inch barrel. It is more likely Buntline bought the sixteen-inch barrel Colts and had the dealer cut them to twelve inches. Of course this is my personal view. As for the shoulder stock, Colt had a skeleton type stock made from cast bronze and nickel plating. This could also have been done by a dealer using walnut wood and at Buntline's request.

The never-forgotten fight at the O K Corral in Tombstone added blazing immortality to the legend of Wyatt Earp. The incident has been written over and over from every viewpoint possible. Therefore, I will not attempt to repeat it here in detail. It was a historic gun battle involving Wyatt, his brothers, and their friend and fellow gunman, gambler Doc Holliday. Wyatt Earp was a peace officer in Tombstone at the time. Now and again he rode shotgun for the Wells Fargo Company. He served with devolution and great respect. As for his so called shady past, I can only rub my chin and smile with wonder.

Author Bob Turpin's love for the Old West shines through in his stories and articles about heroes, outlaws, lawmen, ghosts, legends, and forgotten characters of that time. Turpin is a historian, researcher, and a leading authority on the Old West. He has published six printed books and six ePub/iTunes books in the past three years.

Horse Training Tips - How to Teach a Colt to Lead

Colt Apparel
Among the dozens of questions I get about training horses, one keeps repeating: "How Do I Teach My Colt To Lead?" Many folks wrongly start training a colt to lead by taking hold of the halter and pulling straight ahead. In the process of doing so the head piece of the halter comes down hard on the colt's head and he naturally tries to pull away. If you continue to pull he'll often rear and possibly go over backward and he might hurt himself (and possibly others in the process). 

There is a much better and safer way! The safest way to lead the colt is to take hold of the strap, stand next to his right shoulder and made a quick pull to the side. This will pull the colt's head toward you and the colt will naturally step toward you. If he only steps a little bit, stop and caress and praise him. Repeat the pull until he turns toward you at the slightest touch of the strap. Sometimes you might have to pull to the right and then quickly to the left to get the colt to start. Once he starts or shows an inclination to start, stop and praise him. 

After a while you'll be able to start him to the side and then take him forward. In the most stubborn of animals it may be necessary to use the Pulley Breaking Bridle. If needed you can also apply a slight tap with the whip. Be sure only to use the whip as an encourager - never "whip" or hit the animal to cause pain. Use it to "nudge" him a little. You'll soon have him leading everywhere you want. By applying the confidence lesson learned in Beery's Lesson #1 he'll actually be following you wherever you care to lead him without a strap. All this, and dozens more useful lessons, are taught in the full Jesse Beery 8 Volume Course in Horse Training. Stay safe around your horses.

Training Colts, Part 2

© Caryn A. Tate

If you are reading this article, I'm assuming that you've read the first part of this subject, my article "Training Colts Part 1." It gives a good primer to learn more about training your colt as we move forward.

After your colt has become comfortable with lunging, and he's listening to you well and completing the things that you ask him to do, it's time to take another step forward. At this stage, he should of course be halter trained (meaning he's broke to lead) and has now become comfortable with lunging. It's time to start getting him used to the saddle.

What I like to do is get my horse tied to a fence. Always try to tie your horse to the post of a fence; if a horse fights hard enough, he could easily throw his head and break the board from the middle of a fence.

I'd like to make a note here--no matter how gentle your horse is, tie him up when you first go to saddle him. Even the gentlest horse can sometimes be unpredictable, and since horses are so large and powerful, it's better to be safe about these sorts of things.

When you tie your horse up, be sure and have a halter on him, not a bit and bridle. Reins are much easier for a horse to break if he's tied up and decides to throw his head up. Then, after tying him up, spend a little time just talking to him and running your hands along him, calming him. If he seems a little nervous, give him a little more time. Basically, your horse should get the idea that this is not a big deal.

Start with your saddle blanket. The blanket is a nice tool to start with, to get your horse used to the idea of something on his back. It's light and easily moved around. Lift it up gently but naturally onto your horse, moving it around on his back a little bit and on his sides, and after a while move it all over him, under his belly and against his legs once he seems comfortable with the back and sides. This will just help get him used to the feel of something foreign touching him, and teach him that it's nothing to be afraid of.

Be sure and have patience. It may take your horse a while to get used to the situation. It really does pay to have patience with him. Don't try to force him into accepting the saddle. He's got to do it in his own time.

Horse Types

Of different types of horses in the world, Arab horses can be regarded as the forerunner of the horses who have now. The horses were in Southeast Asia, including eastern race. This is different to the original race horse that has tenglorak greater.

From the shape of his face, horse races are descended from horses suspected eastern Mongols. These horses are descendants of the types of Przewalski discovered in 1879 in Central Asia. Asia may spread to the region by the Hindu nation.

The horses were in Indonesia pemuliaannya affected by the tropical climate and the environment. His height ranged from 1.15 to 1.35 meters, so it belongs to the type of bangs.

That stopped when they introduced the type of horse they bring to local people. There was exchange of goods between residents and the Portuguese traders. Europe was the original horse was crossed with a horse owned by them. These results led to the descendants of horses crossing Europe in Minahasa.

In addition to Arab and European equine known in Indonsia, there is still a type of horse called the Mongolian horse, originating from Asia.

Fit is the Best Color: How to Manage Your Horse’s Weight

By Alana Harrison

Discover contributing factors to weight gain in horses and how to trim down your overweight horse.The Henneke Body Condition Scale helps horse owners assess the varying degrees of fat in their horses by rating six key conformation points: neck, withers, crease of back, tail head, ribs, and behind the shoulder.

In the August 2009 issue of Horse & Rider, John Sylvester, PhD, discusses whether sweet feeds are OK to give to your horse. In the following article from our November 2007 issue, we give you the lowdown on how fat is “too fat,” and what you can do about it. Plus, we provide you with some basic facts on equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) that could be contributing to your horse’s weight problem.

Is your horse overweight? Would your vet think he is? What would your best horse pal say?

It seems America’s media-coined “obesity epidemic” has permeated the animal population, horses included. And, as with humans, excess weight can make horses’ everyday lives more difficult and lead to serious health complications–even death.

In this article, we’ll discuss why so many horses are fat and getting fatter, plus explain why being overweight is so detrimental.Then we’ll help you determine whether your own horse is carrying extra weight, plus offer experts’ tips for trimming excess poundage and keeping it off.

Horsemen of every era have appreciated a handsome horse in good flesh, but the wise horseman of today knows that fat really isn’t “the best color.”

Why the Weight?
Horses evolved to be free-roaming grazers. In the wild, they’re able to survive on scarce pastures, storing excess weight during the summer in preparation for limited foliage in winter.

Yet, as domesticated animals, they often consume high-starch, high-concentrate grain feeds once or twice a day, with limited or no grazing access.

And that’s not even mentioning the high-sugar treats we owners love to feed them.

Before the 20th century, horses were primarily used as work animals; their jobs transporting humans or powering farm equipment ensured regular exercise. Today,we use horses primarily for recreation, and some are more accurately classified as “yard ornaments.”

Too much food, too little exercise–it’s the guaranteed formula for weight gain. As it turns out, though, there are a few other surprising factors contributing to our horses’ bulging sides.

The easy keeper. Some horses just don’t need many calories to maintain optimal body condition. Kentucky Equine Research, Inc., conducted a survey and found that owners who describe their horses as “easy keepers” tend to find it virtually impossible to reduce their horses’ weights by calorie restriction alone. Moreover, these owners assert they’re not dishing out high starch feeds.

This photo gives a close-up view of this horse

Super-grass. Surprisingly, one of the primary weight-gain factors is vastly improved forage. Over the years, the nutritional content of forage has increased. As free-roaming grazers, horses thrived on sparse pastures and diverse forage. Today’s forage is limited in species, primarily consisting of those grasses and legumes best for maximizing nutrition. Plus, genetic technology has further boosted the nutrition value of these forages, meaning horses are getting pasture and hays that are higher in starch and carbs than ever before.

The time of day a horse grazes can make a difference, too. Rhonda Hoffman, PhD, PAS, associate professor of equine science at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, explains that during photosynthesis, green plants produce glucose and other sugars, with oxygen as a byproduct in the presence of light. As a result, forage carbohydrates naturally rise throughout the morning and peak in the late afternoon due to continuous exposure to light. Plant carbs then decline overnight and into the early morning hours. That means horses that graze in the afternoon, as opposed to during the night or early morning, are likely to ingest two to four times as much sugar, starch, and fructans, and are therefore at a greater risk of obesity.

We like ‘em plump. In many cases, we just prefer to see our horses carrying extra weight. For halter horses, especially, a “meatier” profile has traditionally been desirable. Emotionally, it’s pleasant to feel that you’re feeding your horse “plenty,” but in reality the extra calories aren’t doing him any favors.

Training Colts, Part 1

Training Colts,Part 1

Apr 29, 2002 - © Caryn A. Tate

The foremost thing to keep in your mind when you’re beginning to train a young horse is to have patience. Always remember that a horse won’t know something if you haven’t properly taught it to him yet. A good way to remember that, in a way that most of us will recognize readily, is to compare the colt to a child; if you tell a child to read something, and he hasn’t learned how to read properly, he won’t be able to read it to you.

The reason I stress this idea so fervently is because so many people tend to lose patience with colts. A lot of people tend to immediately think a horse is being stubborn, rebellious, or is spoiled—which, of course, can certainly be the case. But many times the colt simply doesn’t understand what it is their trainer is asking them to do. Don’t lose patience and/or your temper with the horse because of miscommunication.

Another major thing to keep in mind is that when a horse is young, just like people or any other animal, they’re especially sensitive to their environment and what they’re exposed to. This is the time when they learn how to behave around humans, and how to react to training methods and people in general.

For instance, in a case where the colt hasn’t grasped yet what you’ve been trying to teach him: If you immediately lose patience with the horse, get angry, and punish him for not doing as you asked him to do, he’ll react. He’ll probably act nervous around you (at least for a while), possibly become head-shy (throwing up his head whenever you raise a hand or make a quick movement), become more and more stubborn towards what you want, and less and less willing to cooperate with you. In this situation, the frustration grows and grows between both of you and not much, if anything, is gained.

However, in the same case, if you retain your patience and try again and again to teach the colt what it is you’re trying to teach him, believe me, it pays off. Believe it or not, the horse will appreciate your extra effort, and will usually try harder to understand what it is you’re saying. If you find that the approach you’re using isn’t working, think of another way to get across to your horse. This is where knowing your horse comes in. If you know each other well, it will be much easier for you to think of alternative methods of teaching that he’ll understand easier.

Colt (horse)

Colt(horse)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

A colt is a young male horse, under the age of four. The term "colt" is often confused with foal, which refers to a horse of either sex under one year of age.

An adult male horse if left intact is called either a "stallion" or a horse (sometimes full horse); if castrated, it is called a gelding. A rig or ridgling is a horse or colt with a retained testicle or one which has been incompletely castrated.^[1]

A young female horse is called a filly until age four, and a mare thereafter.

In the wild, colts are driven from their herds by the herd stallion somewhere between the age of one and two. This may be in part an instinct to prevent inbreeding. When driven out, they usually join with other young stallions in a bachelor herd. They stay with this band until they are mature enough to form their own herd of mares. The terms "rag" or "rake" have been historically used to refer to a group of colts, but they have fallen out of modern usage.^[2][3]

Soccer-Playing Colt Gives Lessons to Pre-teens(Colt Apparel)

Colt Apparel

Austin, TX (PRWEB) February 1, 2006 -- Adventure, sports, and humor are right down the alley for young boys between 8 and 12 years old. Dan Peterson, in his book “Fergus, The Soccer-Playing Colt” (Raven Publishing, ISBN 0971415176, 2005) provides comic relief with a conscience.

Fergus, a palomino colt at Simpson Farms, displays unusual talents. Besides twirling in the air and executing daring back flips, Fergus loves to play soccer. Bobby Simpson and his friend, Ramon, set up a goal in the pasture and let Fergus guard it while they practice penalty kicks and heading the ball. The agile colt blocks all their shots. He flicks the ball off his nose or whirls around and kicks it with his back feet.

Soon the local news, then CNN and other networks feature the golden goalkeeper. People flock to the farm to watch Fergus play with the boys. All the publicity boosts the popularity of soccer in the United States, drawing the attention of Ian Connor from the International Soccer Federation. He asks to “borrow” Fergus and the boys for a fourteen-city tour promoting the colt and the sport of soccer. The boys’ parents agree and the tour launches successfully with Fergus enjoying the matches and playing flawlessly. All goes well until the colt is horse-napped partway through the tour by three bad guys who scheme to turn him into a bucking rodeo champ. The rest of the story relates Fergus’s struggles and his return to Simpson Farms.

Peterson modeled Fergus after his own palomino horse which he raised from a weanling. “The book is based loosely on that horse. He could open gates, get grain out of an old tire; he would also carry around a ball (with a handle on it) or anything else he could pick up that interested him,” explains Peterson.

“Fergus” has a message for the readers. According to Peterson, his preteen audiences learn “that differences are a good thing and not a bad thing; that teamwork is a good way to accomplish goals.” Peterson, when asked he wants his readers to know, he states, “I am 65 and have never given up wanting to get something published, showing that anything is possible when you stay with it.”

Peterson is a co-owner, with his wife, of Alphabet Station, an educational supply store in Salt Lake City and Orem, Utah. He has a degree in journalism and served as editor for three trade publications, as well as developed and evaluated curricula.

The Colt Machine Guns(Colt Apparel)

Colt Apparel

The Colt Machine Guns

The first gas-operated machine gun was the Colt-Browning M1895. One of the products of the genius of John Browning, the Colt 1895 was his first, albeit only modestly successful, foray into machine gun design. While the Leerifle and its cartridge would only see service for a few years, the Colt, beginning with the Spanish American war, would continue in Navy/Marine service up to World War I.

Colt

The First Marine Battalion was equipped with at least two Colt 1895's and emplaced these guns at CampMcCalla after their June 10, 1898 landing at Guantanamo. They were supplemented by two Colts from the TEXAS that were off-loaded and delivered on the mid-morning of June 12, by the TEXAS' own Marines. Not only did the Colt's provide supportive defensive fire at Camp McCalla,but three of the four weapons were operated by Company C in the battle of Cuzco Well on June 14th, and, according to the account of Pvt. A tripod mounted Colt also saw action in use by Naval and Marine personnel in the taking of Guánica, Puerto Rico.

The two 7mm Colts of the Rough Riders were also carried into action on tripods, eventually using captured Spanish ammunition. In addition to the ground use of the weapon, the Colt was also mounted on various warships and auxiliary warships in the conflict. One could argue that the Colt's service in the Spanish American War was, at best, modest, as compared to the use of the Gatling gun. However, the Colt did usher in the age of the machine gun in United States service (although the US Army never formally adopted the Colt it recognized the value of the machine gun) and pointed to a century in which the machine gun would quickly become a dominant arm in warfare.

Colt

While this early Browning design would quickly be surpassed by more modern designs, several by Browning himself, it would still see continued manufacture by Colt and Marlin-Rockwell into the second decade of the 1900's. The Colt would see further combat service with US forces in the Philippine-American War and the Boxer Rebellion. The "Colt" featured a unique action of operation that proved to be relatively robust and durable if not completely reliable. However, the Colt was simpler, lighter, and easier to handle, all important considerations for naval service that would require a varied and flexible use of the weapon.

The Colt was fired in bursts rather than in continual and extended firing that would become a well known trait of water cooled machine guns. The Colt machine guns were used by the Rough Riders. Patent in 1836 for the Colt firearm equipped with a revolving cylinder containing five or six bullets with an innovative cocking device. Both this model and Weapon No 124are of this caliber so were in fact made by Colt for the Italians.

America adopted Browning's designs mainly manufactured by the Colt plant. It was followed by the Colt machinegun designed by Browning. Paul Mauser 1838-1914 was the son of a German gunsmith who had developed the famous K98 Colt action rifle and up to the end of the First World War his firm had provided the bulk of the rifles and semi automatic pistols for the German Army.

Corporate Apparel: The New Business Fashion(Colt Apparel)

Colt Apparel
Corporate Apparel

Corporate apparel is becoming the working person's choice of fashion. Over the past few years, may companies have made the switch to a corporate casual dress code. And for companies, this corporate apparel can translate into a retail line that can be used to market the business. If you are a business owner considering in investing in an apparel line, here are a number of things to consider.

Is the apparel for employees or for clients? If it is for employees it should be seen as incentive. Corporate apparel and business casual dress code is a factor that employees rate as very important in employment satisfaction. Create apparel that employees can wear to work for different occasions. Create oxford shirts and ties for boardroom casual, and Polo shirts for everyday business casual. Also, consider the type of business, as contractors generally choose different fashion than lawyers or bankers. There are a number of accessories that can be branded with company logo for employees to use at home or at travel as well.

Is the apparel line for marketing to clients? And if so, how do you want the apparel to be used? Think of the client base for the type of business here also. Buy something that will appeal to most of the client base. Conduct a test run to see which type of shirt people like most. Business want to expose their companies using corporate apparel, so don't choose a style that will end up in salvage next year.

Remember to choose a color shirt that coordinates with the logo. A blue logo may not show up well or even look good on a blue shirt. Color tone and logo color should compliment each other, not compete.

When people order their apparel, they typically want to know how the sizing runs for a particular item. Most apparel manufacturers have size charts that let you know the exact measurements for a given item. You can use these charts during ordering so everyone knows the exact size of the item they are ordering.

Using brand name apparel is often a good selling point. People are more likely to purchase brands that they recognize, as opposed to off-brands. Brand name apparel lines are known for their quality and popularity and will help you to sell more apparel.

When creating an apparel line, don't forget a few accessories and promotional items. Besides shirts and hats, think of items that are useful to employees or clients, again, depending on the type of business. For companies that have picnics or festival, blankets and towels are a great promotional item. There are also plenty of useful gadgets like lights, calculators, and letter openers that can be used for promotional items.

3 Steps To Beautiful Stress Free Feet(Colt Apparel)

Colt Apparel

Everyone is living a fast paced life these days. With all the stress and things to handle, do we always take the time out to care about our feet? More often than not, the answer to that questions is no. We are always on our feet, and yet we neglect to give them the care they need, which if given would reduce a little bit of their stress from our every day lives. This article lists 3 simple and fast ways for us to care for our feet, making them look better and feel better.

1. Exfoliate the stress our of those toes

Hard skin accumulates naturally on different parts on the body, especially at the base of our feet. When too much hard skin accumulates, it sometimes also becomes quite painful to wear certain shoes and make certain moves. To prevent too much hard skin for accumulating it is important that we exfoliate the feet with a gentle scrub. Different kinds and brand of scrubs are available to use, made especially for the feet and which come in different scents. Choose your favourite scent to relax yourself whilst you massage your feet with the scrub. If you’re lucky, get your partner to do this for you! For better scrubbing try using a pumice, as this will help get rid of that hard skin more effectively. You will be amazed how relaxing scrubbing your feet will feel, and moreover how soft and smooth your feet will feel afterwards. Scrubbing will also make your feet and legs feel lighter, reducing the stress your feet feel. I recommend this scrubbing exercise at least twice a week to make the stress free feeling last long.

2. Moisturise for a silky smooth finish

After the scrubbing exercise is complete, continue showing your feet some tender loving care by applying a nice moisturising lotion to them. Again, if your partner is around, or perhaps even a friend, get them to help you our. You can even give each other these mini pedicures so that you make sure both of you are running on stress free feet. Massage the moisturising lotion well to both your feet, do not rush too much as you need to savour the moment and relax while you can.

3. Color your beautiful toes

Now although this last step applies only for the ladies (and also those adventurous men), all the guys should listen up and take notes so that they will be able to give their partner a complete mini pedicure. The final step of our quickly and stress relieving pedicure is the application of nail polish to the toe-nails. I always stress that nail polish should be applied to the toe-nails, at least a clear colored one, as this final step make a world of a difference. It makes your feet look very well groomed and well taken care of, which also show that you take the time to take care of yourself. This final step comes especially handy in the summer-time when a lot of open-toe shoes are worn. Therefore go for your favourite color and apply nail polish to your toe-nails! For long lasting nail polish I always recommend first applying a base coat, as this both protects your nail and ensure the nail polish lasts longer. After applying the base coat, apply one or two coats of your favourite nail polish. Finally, once the nail polish has dried off a little bit, apply a clear top coat. Besides giving your toe-nails that shiny look, the top coast also helps the nail polish last much longer.
These 3 simple yet essential steps take very little time to put into practice, and the after-effect you will enjoy will last a long time. Take a little stress out of your daily life, by taking a little extra care of your feet. Ensure that you are walking on stress free feet!
