Breast Implants Out - Stem Cells Create Real Breasts



Cosmetic surgeons are now using stem cells to augment breast size in studies. Using a woman's own fat taken from her body and injected with stem cells. This way it is your own tissue and not a saline or other type of artificial implant. This will no doubt cause quite an explosion of women seeking this type of surgery. This means that in the future - small breasted women may be in the minority.

Hip Hop Clothing - 30 years of development


By David Yuri

Fashion will always be a part of our lives. Not all people are attracted to what is new and hip, and styles vary with every person’s tastes. Even so, every time you walk out the door and stop to look in the mirror if your clothes are suited accordingly, you are trying to make a good fashionable impression.

Fashion is a general term that describes whether something fits with the popular mode of expression at a given time. But, at that specific time there may be a lot of expression modes taking place, and none related to the other. If something is fashionable at that point, that means it fits one of those styles. Let’s talk about the evolution of hip hop clothing.

This is a trend that started with the early hip hop singers like LL Cool J, Run DMC, Kurtis Blow and many others. While there were a lot of things that made a statement about the newly founded culture, like haircuts and jewelry, the most important of them all was hip hop clothing.

Back then, the clothes were mostly black-green-and-red. The 80s hip hop fashion also implied dreadlocks as haircuts and Africa chains as jewelry, which stated that this culture was a part of your life. With the passing of time and the evolution of the music, hip hop clothing also took a turn.

The 1990s brought with them baseball caps and colored clothes for some. Other singers were inspired by prison uniforms, which turned into the no belt fashion. The hip hop clothing trends in America were also divided according to regions. The west favored flannel shirts and sneakers, while the east was often represented by hooded tops and boots. Southern trend introduced gold teeth as fashionable.

The late 1990s also introduced new entries. Mafioso style became popular with alligator skin shoes and hats, with Jay-Z and Notorious B.I.G. as the pioneers, but also shiny suits with platinum jewelry were then a pleasant combination, something usually worn by P. Diddy.

All fashion trends started from a hip hop star. Whatever they decided was fashionable, the hip hop honeys embraced without a second thought. Everyone was free to decide what clothes they would wear to make a statement, but not all clothes were in tone with the current trends.

You may wonder what I mean by hip hop honeys. Well, these are the people that follow this culture anytime, anywhere. They know exactly what the new trends are, the kind of clothes that can be matched and what jewelry to wear with those clothes.

In the early days, hip hop honeys could find clothes to fit their tastes and culture in a relatively small number of brick and mortar stores. However, since the internet has now become more like a necessity than a whim, the stores have taken a virtual form. It takes only a computer, an internet connection and a few clicks to reach a reliable source of hip hop clothing.
Author Resource:- Thirty years ago, hip hop clothing did not play a very important role in the fashion industry. Be that as it may, today the once isolated trend has grown into a world wide culture and hip hop honeys can be found all over the world dressing and acting like their favorite stars.

Tattoo Designs of Zodiac Signs


By Debra Smith

When one speaks of art, they would definitely, apart from every other form of it, speak of body art. And when one speaks of body art, they cannot help but speak of the king of the kind, tattoos. Tattoos have played an important role in the development, and more importantly, maintenance of the culture of various cults, societies, and civilizations throughout many generations. Now, however, while many people still follow the process of getting tattoos imprinted on their skins as a religious or cultural ritual, most of those around actually want to make use of it merely and entirely for fashion. This cannot be called wrong, though; just a different way of spreading the acceptance and appreciation of this form of art in particular, across the world.

Getting a tattoo inked onto your body in this modern world is quite easy, albeit expensive (obviously). This is because of the growing demand and greater number of tattoo artists emerging on various platforms of society. If you too, are interested in getting a tattoo done, though, it is necessary for you to follow the correct steps in the correct fashion.

First of all, you need to decide upon the reason as to why you want to get a tattoo done. This will help you decide on what kind of tattoo design you ought to select. Tattoo designs come in myriads of forms, sizes, colors and shapes, to suit every need and reason. They could be staunchly religious, airily trendy, or emotionally symbolic, like star tattoo designs, for instance. Hence, when you know the reason, you know the kind of tattoo design you would like to exhibit.

Next, you need to look through all the options available to you within your need. You can look for various tattoo designs on the internet, or in the journals of various tattoo artists, and select the one you like. This will not be easy, for there exist too many designs for you to decide from in a jiffy. So, take your time, and see that you make the right choice, so you don’t regret it later.

You also need to know where you want the tattoo to be placed on your body. For this reason, make sure that you have selected a tattoo design of the right shape and size to fit perfectly into the location, for resizing it may lead to disproportionate and imperfect output. If you want a tattoo on your lower back, for example, then you must choose the perfect lower back tattoo design for it. Other than this, the colors that you select for the tattoo are very important, for they are the ones that actually bring out the beauty of a tattoo design. You could have a monochromic tattoo if you like, or could have a colorful and vibrant one, according to your own choice.

Lastly, it is important that you make the right decisions when it comes to getting a tattoo done, from choosing a reputable artist, to deciding on your budget, to selecting just the perfect tattoo design to match your personality and style perfectly. And most importantly, remember to be completely sure about getting a tattoo done in the first place, for in case you regret it, the process of removal will cause a lot of pain – to you and your pocket.

Spring - Summer 2010 Fashion Trends


by Ray C. Subs



Fashion trends are, for the most part, showcased to the world on the runway. However, trend forecasting agencies are responsible for much of the fabric choices, colors, and styles that find their way onto those same runways. The French trend agency, NellyRodi's four scenarios for the spring and summer of 2010 have been released and can be a huge help when deciding which style and color handbags to purchase and pull together to be current, trendy, and stylish for the coming year.

The current economy has a large influence on fashion, with trends reflecting "idealistic thoughts about the future." Colors for the first scenario, entitled "light tech", include acidic tints of green, turquoise, orange, yellow, pink, and veiled gray. Fabric choices for this set were mostly synthetic, such as taffeta, jacquard, coated canvas, and thick linen. "Clean, precise graphics", miniature designs, and textures make this trend perfect for showcasing your handbag. The synthetic fabric options make this trend even sweeter since cleaning your bag will be a breeze. Messenger bags are particularly suited for graphics and designs. Colored bags can make a bland outfit really pop, so investing in some of the sweet and sour colors of this season is an easy way to liven up your wardrobe.

"Ode to nature" was the next scenario trend forecasters put together. Light, gauzy fabrics both layered and alone set a romantic atmosphere. Tulle, crepe, voile, muslin, and silk shantung all flow beautifully with the soft, faded colors of pastels. Taupe and mauve bring an unexpected pop of intensity to the powdery palette. Handbags in mauve and beige will pair perfectly with the talcum shades of spring. The muted colors of nature give way to the warm, vibrant colors of "southern folk" in the next trend scenario. Beige is again featured, along with ochre, clay, reds, plums, and cactus green. Inspired by South American landscapes, cottons, lace, and macramé decorated with ornaments, appliqués, and embroidery echo the colorful chaos of South American culture. Stripes and boldly patterned handbags are a trendy choice for this scenario. Larger bags such as totes and messenger bags will make especially bright statements. Fading slightly from their sun-kissed opulence, muffled tones of beige, khaki, and blue are accented by yellow, purple, sky blue, and red in the final scenario, "popular appeal". A 70s vintage look full of faded cotton, denim, and fleece offer a more relaxed fashion. For a "femme fatale look...chiffons, crepes, and satins" are presented. I can just see the sky blue satin clutch paired with a faded blue. Stunning. This coming year promises to be full of fun and fabulous fashions that are likely easily pulled together with items already in your closet. Adding trendy handbags will stretch your wardrobe and highlight how current and fashionable you are.
