Should we pay any attention to the inane comments of a socialite model?

Best ignored: Daphne Guinness. Photograph: Matt Baron/BEI/Rex Features

So some socialite said something about not eating until she's dead in an interview and everyone on the internet got very upset about it. Is it worthy of my upset? Mary, by email In all honesty? No. But I'm intrigued by your claim that everyone on the internet got upset about the New Yorker interview with Daphne Guinness, which is the interview of which you speak. Really – everyone on the internet? Those Google boys, the White House, LulzSec? Everyone? I'd have thought Julian Assange, at least, would have been too busy trying to suppress the memoir he took the money for to bother with this non-furore. After all, if Julian doesn't want something to be published and it is published, it's not free speech – it's just rude. Anyway, I apologise for mocking your hyperbole because I know that by "everyone" you meant "the Daily Mail and bloggers with too much time on their hands". But the point is that you can't mock other people for being hysterical and over the top when you're being so yourself. And that's what the reaction to this dumb quote from Guinness was: as over the top as her fashion sense and self-obsession. You know, when I first read this interview I barely noticed that quote. To give some context, the journalist is watching Guinness do a fashion shoot for German Vogue with Bryan Adams. Yes, that Bryan Adams. Look, I'm doing my best to focus on the question so let's just carry on. At one point Guinness announces: "If I eat, I can't work. I'll eat when I'm dead." Now, leaving aside the idea that Guinness considers lolling about with a – and I'm not making this up – belljar on her head to be "work" is intriguing enough. But to be honest, after all the other crap Guinness comes out with in this interview, a skinny socialite announcing she doesn't view food as a necessary part to her day seems hardly worth one's time. Let's see; there's the bit when she announces that Hitler was "the most uncharming man I've ever seen". Whoa, watch yourself there, Daphne, coming on a bit strong, aintcha? Then there's Guinness saying that her grandmother, Diana Mitford Guinness Mosley, insisted that Hitler was just "unphotogenic" and "very, very funny". Ah, so that was his problem: his sense of humour simply could not be captured by film. No wonder the man's been so misunderstood. Then there's the brilliant bit when Guinness is asked if she's ever had no money: "Oh God, yes. You know, it happens often that you forget your wallet or something. But you just make your way back. You find some way to do it. You WALK." But of course, the tabloids and blogs think the eating habits or otherwise of the fashion crowd are the most fascinating thing in the world and possibly the most evil so, inevitably, a casual comment about whether or not one eats on a fashion shoot would get more attention than references to Hitler. It happened when Kate Moss claimed "nothing tastes as good as being thin" and it's happened again. If we're going to focus on fashion, I personally found Guinness's claim that "uncomfortable is the name of the [fashion] game" far more disturbing than her rejection of a plate of pasta, considering the number of times she has described her fashion as "armour" and what have you. So, fashion is less self-expression and protection and more a form of masochism to you, is it, Daphne? Now that is disturbing. Is it acceptable to wear shorts with tights to formal occasions? Shorts give greater mobility and modesty than a skirt. Hannah, by email Now, I have been pushing/working/maxing/[insert whatever is this month's fashion verb for "wearing"] this look for literally years, and not necessarily to a positive reaction. Here's the thing, Hannah: while all of your reasons for considering the shorts'n'tights look are right, I'll tell you a funny thing – straight boys don't like it. I'm not quite sure why. After all, shorts can be just as short, maybe even shorter, than a skirt. Maybe they think an extra gusset lessens their possibility of access, if you see what I mean, even if their chances of access are absolutely nil. This shouldn't stop you from wearing them, of course. If we all dressed according to what straight men probably want then we'd all dress like Elizabeth Hurley and, thankfully, we do not. In fact, I recently spent a silly amount of money on a pair of sequinned 3.1 Philip Lim shorts, and I love them. I will wear them out dancing with the ladies. But will I wear them on a hot date? I will not. And that, frankly, is his loss. dj-egypt.com mazzika

Now that it's September, what are the crucial looks for autumn/winter?

Shane Warne 'Metrosexual'? Photograph: Andrew Fosker / Rex Features

Now that it's September, what are the crucial looks for autumn/winter? Mary, by email Well, plush tweeds and thick knits are absolutely essential. Pair them with – oh, bugger it, I can't hold it in any more. Please, can we all please talk about what the hell has happened to Shane Warne? Leaving aside the fact that he appears to have morphed from the chubby, frosted-tip rogue that he was for several decades into Dale Winton's blond brother, all with the help of nothing other than the Estée Lauder moisturisers his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley happens to shill for, it's the man himself that concerns me. And, Shane, take my hand. Look me in the eye – no, not back at Liz, not at the tube of mascara on the windowsill, look right into my eyes, Shane. I'm worried about you. It perhaps won't come as a complete surprise to learn that I am not a cricket expert. Until about, oh, two months ago I though Wisden was "Wisdom", which I did think was a somewhat arrogant name for a cricket magazine (or whatever the hell it is). But when I saw photos of Shane on his way to play golf looking like a model from a 50s catalogue, and when I saw that he'd been described by the Daily Mail as "a smartly dressed metrosexual" – a phrase as ominous from the Daily Mail as "brutally honest" or "plain speaking" – I knew my help was needed. This is not a plaint of the quasi-misogynistic and homophobic ones that have appeared in other, inferior rags, which can be summed up as "Liz 'That dress' Hurley turned Shane into a big queen". Please. Like any "queen" would allow himself to be dressed – and by Liz Hurley, of all boring people. I have been informed by the Guardian's lawyers that I am not allowed to talk about the eyeliner and Botox that Shane clearly is not using. I am, however, allowed to wonder where a man even buys a tan sweater vest such as the one Shane wore for his little golf game. Surely, I thought, looking at his matching tan trousers, his humiliation must now be complete. And then, proving that in the celebrity world of self-abasement there really is no such thing as "bottoming out", Shane started tweeting Ping Pong, otherwise known as Elizabeth Hurley's parrot Why has Australia not staged an intervention? And after the humiliations this country have inflicted on Rupert Murdoch and Warne, why has Australia not declared war on Britain? Well, in the case of Warne, I fear I know the answer. Last week, Shane – with a Forrest Gumpian lack of self-awareness – tweeted the location of his followers and proudly announced the results: UK 40.6%, India 26.8% and Australia 12.9%. That's right: Australia has already disowned him, washed its collective hands of the man who won quite a lot of cricket matches for it (look, go to the sports section if you want specifics. Come to me for the hand-wringing OK?). That's right: the country that claims as its own John Farnham, Paul Hogan and Alf Stewart has decreed that Shane is no longer man enough for it. It's just too sad. Although I will admit that the fact he preceded this terrible announcement about the treachery of his homeland with a tweet to Ping Pong saying how much he is "looking forward to seeing my fluffy sweet parrot soon! Yes – will have gifts …" makes it difficult for me to condemn Australia entirely. Something happens to a certain kind of man when he loses his identity. And so, from "stylish metrosexual" Warne we move seamlessly to Piers Morgan. It may be difficult to believe but Morgan wasn't always quite so objectionable. But something went very wrong when he lost his job as editor of the Mirror. As a simple comparison between just the titles of Morgan's first memoir, the very good The Insider, and the very poor second one, Don't You Know Who I Am, prove, it seems like Morgan decided the only way he could find self-validation was through cheap fame. Now, the man who once banned celebrities from his newspaper can be found on CNN asking Kim Kardashian how he can get more Twitter followers. Similarly, the former cricket champion of Australia (or whatever he was) spends his days on Twitter since retiring from his sporting job, boasting about his newfound love of healthy eating, telling people to play online poker with him and sending messages of love to Elizabeth Hurley's parrot. Never mind how a man should behave, this is no way for a human to behave. Oh, Shane – take my hand. Let me liberate you. The bottle of hair peroxide is already waiting in my bathroom, just waiting to re-frost your tips.

Paris Hilton might want to have a word with her stylist.
The red carpet-loving heiress has had unwitting twin fashion moments with not one, but two, starlets in November alone. That has to be a record!

Former MTV VJ Vanessa Minnillo threw on a bright blue star-spangled Tracy Reese dress for TRL's curtain call Sunday night - the same $415 number Hilton donned for a Nov. 3 visit to the "Late Show with David Letterman."

Teen fashion trends

There are many articles dedicated to fashion trends: trends for men or women, trends for kids and even for dogs. What about teens? Try to do a web search and you will see that finding nice guidelines about teen fashion trends is not as easy as it may seem. Why is it this way? The reason for this lack of information is teen fashion being more complicated than any other. Teenagers are fighting against society; they put a lot of effort to be different, but they also invent new trends and fashion styles.
The latest trend is EMO (emotional) style. EMO style is definitely for those who adore bright colors. Green, pink, red, yellow matched with black will undoubtedly make you noticeable. If you are into this style, you must have an appropriate hairdo: Zelda hairdo for girls and jet black mop top for boys. Pencil or at least cigarette-shaped jeans with studded belt is also a must-have. Rules for top are not that strict, you may choose anything you want, just be sure it's close-fitting and bright colored. You must wear large amounts jewelry and it's even better if you pierce your face (small lip ring would do perfectly). EMO style is perfect for those who wear glasses - it's a great accent and EMOs love nerdy ones.
Hip hop never goes out of fashion. Music that speaks street language is definitely for young rebellious souls. Hip-hop style for teen boys and girls is rather different. Boys are usually wearing baggy pants and t-shirt, while girls chose sexy outfits. Cap is a must for both. When it comes to colors - choose anything you want. Boys usually prefer blue jeans and white-colored top while girls are totally unpredictable. Girls wear big rounded earrings and boys must wear at least one ring.
What fashion designers have come up to this season is gothic youth. Although this fashion has existed for a number of years and has been discussed in various ways, it is the first time it is fashionable. Dressing all-black, coloring your hair black, using only black makeup means or even whitening your face to make everything else look even blacker is a hot trend. Choose big shoes with chunky heels; go for metal details all over your clothing and accessories and you're a perfect goth. No matter if you are wearing a short or a long skirt, a close fitting top or a loose one - it's ok as long as it's black.
Bohemian style is also fashionable among teenagers. Loose light colored clothes, wraps and wooden, stone or amber accessories will make you look like a real bohemian girl or boy. Peop...

Laser Hair Removal and Electrolysis

2011-05-15T09:35:00.000-07:00

by: Nigel Green

Millions and millions of people around the world, male

and female, remove unwanted and excessive hair from their faces and body everyday. There are many options and methods to consider.

Hair removal tends to fall into two main categories; non-permanent hair removal (shaving and depilatory creams to mention a few) and permanent hair removal (electrolysis and laser hair removal). As lifestyles change and become more demanding, and as technology develops, permanent methods have become more and more popular, especially laser hair removal, which was the most desired cosmetic treatment in a 2010 survey.

Laser hair removal and electrolysis are similar in that both methods destroy the hair at the root - the hair follicle. What differ between the two methods is the technology and procedures involved and also the time it takes to become permanently hair free.

Electrolysis can be very time consuming and painful. The procedure used during electrolysis treatments usually concentrates on one hair follicle at a time. The procedure consists of a metal probe being inserted into the hair follicle. Once the metal probe has been inserted into the hair follicle, it releases an electronic current or charge. This damages the hair follicle which is then unable to produce hair. Due to the invasive procedure of inserting a metal probe into the follicle, electrolysis is usually painful and uncomfortable. The procedure cannot be carried out very quickly and therefore appointments can be long and tiresome. Providing treatments are carried out following the treatment plan, the average timescale for becoming hair free on one area using electrolysis is 10-12 months.

Soprano XL LHR is a non-invasive and pain free, permanent treatment. This treatment can be safely carried out on any area of the face and body, including the sensitive and hard to reach areas. Laser hair removal using the Soprano XL uses light energy that passes safely through the skin and is absorbed by the hair follicle as heat. The heat affects the hair follicle in such a way that results in the follicle being unable to produce hair again.

Unlike electrolysis, which concentrates on one hair follicle at a time, laser hair removal simultaneously concentrates on a great number of follicles at one time making the procedure quick and easy. Treatments do not take a long time, in fact treatments to the top lip and chin area can be completed in 5 minutes, the underarms 10 minutes, bikini area 20 minutes and so on. Results can be noticed after one treatment and providing the treatments are carried out following the treatment plan, the timescale for becoming hair free can be as quickly as 5-6 months. Due to the noticeable difference in appointment times and hair free timescales, the popularity of laser hair removal has increased greatly and has become an option which can fit into everybody’s lifestyle whilst also giving them the results they desire.

A summary of a study published in 'Dermatologic Surgery' in 2000 showed the differences found between twelve patients using both treatments in twenty four areas of the body. It stated that while LHR may be more expensive than electrolysis, it is sixty times faster and less painful in comparison to electrolysis and more patients experienced more favourable results with laser hair removal and now with the soprano XL it is completely pain-free.

Outstanding Women in Business

2011-05-15T09:32:00.000-07:00

by: Tamar Peters

Old hurdles such as gender barriers have practically been overcome. This is clearly seen in the business world where men and women are sharing opportunities and responsibilities based on qualifications and not gender. In fact, women have contributed greatly to developments in business.

Let's take a brief look at three such notable women in business; a world-class CEO, an innovative entrepreneur, and a leading consultant, and see how they have helped shape the business world as we know it today.

Carol Bartz (Yahoo!, CEO)

In 2010, CEOs of fifteen Fortune 500 companies were women. One of these influential women in business is Yahoo! President and CEO, Carol Bartz, who became its Chief Executive Officer in early 2009. At that time, Bartz took over the helm of the third most-visited website when its market share was declining. She faced the difficult task of turning the company around and was able to score deals that enabled Yahoo! to maintain and enhance its core business. Despite some expressed doubts that Yahoo!'s position has improved; many believe that Bartz has performed better than expected. Bartz served as CEO at AutoDesk before joining Yahoo!.

Anita Roddick (The Body Shop, founder)

Many successful women in business are also ground-breaking entrepreneurs. One such woman was Anita Roddick, founder of the cosmetics firm, The Body Shop. Roddick started her company in England in 1991 and, over the years, it grew to become the world's second largest beauty products franchise. But The Body Shop is more than just a successful venture; it is a revolutionary way of doing business as well. It was founded on the principles of "ethical consumerism" and fair trading practices, which contributed to the brand's image. Roddick died in 2007.

Linda Solomon (Deloitte Consulting)

Expert women in business can also be found in the consulting industry. Linda Solomon is a leading consultant at Deloitte. Solomon has a considerable consulting career which began in 1990. She now serves as head of the Deloitte's Homeland Security consulting services, which is one of the firm's most important divisions. Solomon has implemented a successful financial optimization program in her sector as well. Solomon was named one of the top 25 consultants in 2010 by ConsultingMag.com.

These three women are only a few examples of how women have influenced the business landscape. This proves that in business competence, not gender, determines success. Women now have better chances of landing in topnotch positions, gone are the days that women are left in their houses to take care of the family home.

Horse Jewelry Earrings Bracelets Makes Unique Gift Ideas for Women

2011-05-15T09:17:00.000-07:00

by: Jenn Webb

Horses are regarded as the symbol of strength, stamina and grace. Horse has been a companion of man for centuries, you can still find picture of horses on the walls of caves in France, which are forty thousand years old! This loyal animal was regarded as the offspring of the four winds who would carry Zeus in the form of a horse. The European culture regards horse as a symbol of a warrior. Stallion and Horse were regarded as twin horse gods and were literally worshiped throughout Britain, in the ancient times. Horses were also regarded as guides in spiritual journeys.

The Greco-Romans also associated the Horse with the spoils of war and attributed it to symbolism such as power, victory, honor, domination and virility. In Greco-Roman myth the Horse is said to be created by Poseidon and is devoted to Pluto and Mars. Romans also believed the horse to be a symbol of the continuity of life, and would sacrifice a horse to the god Mars every October, keeping its tail through the winter as a sign of fertility and rebirth.
