Logos

Wednesday, June 12th, 2013

The massive amount of money that is spent trying to come up with the perfect logo is mind boggling. Not only does this take a lot of money but a lot of time and effort as well. All for the sake of a little picture that people will hopefully relate to and remember for years to come.

I remember when Nationwide Insurance (my insurance company) came out with their new and improved logo, which is an empty blue box:

Personally I enjoyed the former logo (pictured below) which most of you know was an eagle. It makes no sense to me to have wasted all that money on an empty box, especially since the eagle is such an important bird for the U.S.A and worked so well for so long. What a waste!

Artificial Implants Continue To Be Popular

Tuesday, June 11th, 2013

When it comes to silicone breasts, artificial implants are very popular. Breast enhancement surgery continues to be one of the most popular forms of cosmetic surgery worldwide, and many women go under the knife in hopes of achieving the perfect vision of idealized beauty. Before undergoing any brash treatments, it may be a good idea to invest in a “tester” model first.

The silicone breast forms from Glamourboutique.com are excellent for not only transgender women and crossdressors, but for naturally biological women as well. Someone with particularly small breasts can form a pair of silicone falsies to their chest and feel what it’s like to go up a size or two before committing to any invasive surgery. They’re also just great for costumes in general. If you want to impersonate a character or public figure that is quite amply endowed, investing in a breast forms will make the effort that much more worthwhile.

Crossdressors will benefit from having breasts that actually look and feel like the real thing. When they’re properly applied, silicone takes on the consistency of human tissue. It’s pliable, flexible and soft to the touch while still remaining firm. Silicone is also completely safe and free of phthalates, which are harmful chemicals that can be found in some commercially produced plastic and rubber products. You don’t have to worry about an allergic reaction when it comes to products featured at Glamourboutique.com. Embrace your feminine side and invest in a pair of lovely breast forms. These prices can’t be beat.

My Not-So-Secret Hobby

Guest post written by Jennifer Vickers

Here’s a fun fact: By day, I work as an accountant. But by night? I moonlight as a hairdresser. Allow me to explain. Ever since we got married, my husband’s had me cut his hair. One, he’s very cheap and likes to pinch pennies whenever he can. He also trust me with his hair and, as he says, “If it comes out looking funky, you’re the one that’ll have to look at it!”

So anyway, after a few months of giving him a shape-up every now and then, I found myself really liking what I was doing. I started experimenting with different cuts and styles (but very slightly so he didn’t feel like a science project) and ended up investing in some great tools, like professional hair cutting scissors and this great razor comb to help make the cuts more quality. Then, I got brave and started trimming my own ends, and then my friend’s hair, and so on. It’s like my own private business, just goes to show you that you can always do what you love, and still find ways to pay the bills. I’ve contemplated taking my business pro one day, but that’d involve one serious home pro improvement venture!

Navigating The Stairs In Your Home

Friday, May 31st, 2013

It is amazing how the stairway lifts have evolved over the years. The very first one that I remember seeing was at a house that I was helping my friend clean and get ready for a wedding. It was the very basic stairway lift and it didn’t look very comfortable. I wanted to give it a try so very much but didn’t know how to use it and god forbid if I had broken it, there was no way I could have come up enough money to pay for the repairs that it would need, so I stayed away from it and just checked it out from a distance. I just loved the concept and couldn’t seem to stop gazing at it.

These stairway lifts have become very popular over the years. They certainly have a bigger and better selection of stairway lifts for today’s customers wants and needs. I still haven’t had the opportunity to actually sit and use one though. Guess that’s a good thing in the long run. Hopefully I will never had the need to use one either!

Check out how they can now make this stairway lifts for curved staircases that are so popular in so many homes these days.

Old and Rusty Lanyards

Sunday, May 19th, 2013

A buddy of mine came to visit a few weeks ago and we had planned to go out to the ocean and go fishing, water skiing and knee boarding. We were both so excited to spend some time away from home and have some fun, and go wild. We made a list of things we needed not just for the road trip but for the trip on the water as well.

It took a lot of thinking and gathering to get everything we needed but we did it. Before we knew it we were out on the open road on the way to the ocean front with my buddies boat hooked to the back of the truck ready to rock and roll on the water. When we finally got to the boat dock, my buddy noticed that his lanyards were old and rusty and needed replacing as soon as possible.

I searched Google through my phone to find a good deal on lanyards, and it didn’t take much time at all to come across a site that offers lanyard pins at a great price, so I immediately ordered some for him without him knowing at the time. When it arrived shortly after, I wrapped them up as a gift, knowing his Birthday was in a few days, and gave them to him before he had left to go back home.

He was so happy to have them for his boat, I couldn’t be any more thrilled to know I helped my buddy out, when he least expected it. It might have been a small item, but its something he needed and the price wasn’t something I couldn’t ignore.
