When you go for a beach vacation, the last thing you would want is to lug around tonnes of clothes. You can travel light when you go for a beach holiday, or anywhere warm. A capsule wardrobe of just 7 lightweight items are all you need, to stay chic throughout your holiday. Bring some detergent so you can wash each day's clothes after wearing it, and you should have enough to last through a long holiday.
With some clever coordination, 7 key items get you a myriad of looks. You look chic by the beach or in the restaurant. That capsule wardrobe goes a long way. The trick is to pick tops that go with all the bottoms in your travel wardrobe. Do that through your color scheme.
First of all, pick your color scheme. What colors look best on you. Pick 2 or 3 colors that make you look really good, and which go really well with one another. If you are uncertain, you could stick to just black and white, or a bright color and black. As long as all your tops and bottoms are within your color scheme, you can mix and match the tops and bottoms in your travel wardrobe easily.
Now for the 7 items.
#1 Your swimwear. This is where your beach wardrobe begins.
You can match your swimwear with your skirts for new looks as you go from the beach, to the bar for a drink. That swim suit can double up as a body suit. A bikini top could double up as a midriff baring halter top. Choose carefully though. If you have a tummy, a one piece swimsuit that holds in your waist would minimize the problem. On the other hand, a string bikini would be really sexy on a good figure. Your swimwear something you should go to the mall to try on yourself. Pick one that looks best on you. Check your reflection in the mirrors, from all angles. Don't trust the salesgirl. See for yourself. Or get a pal you can trust for her opinion. This swimsuit or bikini is going to be worn with your skirts as well, so pick something in a neutral color, like black or white. You could also pick one in a color or print that would match the skirts you bring on that holiday.
#2 A lightweight, yet gorgeous dress like the ones found at http://www.womanht.com/discounts/womens+clothes-fullfile-dresses.htm
A dress that you can easily roll up and pack into your bag. Ideally, it should emerge wrinkle free when you are ready to wear it. Or you could always hang it up in the bathroom when you take a hot shower, to let the steam smoothen the wrinkles in it. This is especially useful if you might end up going to a fancy restaurant for a meal, or an impromptu dinner date.
#3 A sexy top that flatters your body. The ones at http://www.womanht.com/discounts/womens+clothes-fullfile-tops.htm would do beautifully. If you have nice arms, a tank top, a strappy top or any top that is sleeveless would show off your arms beautifully. If not, go for cap sleeves or a long sleeve top that shows a little cleavage.
#4 A babydoll t-shirt like the ones found at http://www.buy-t-shirts.net/baby-doll-t-shirts.htm .The babydoll cut flatters the female body. Especially when worn as a top. It emphasises the bust, skims and slims the waist. It is feminine, but never tarty.
#5 A wrap skirt like these http://www.buyclothing.net/wrap-skirt.htm This should match with your top, your t-shirt and your swimsuit to create different looks. After a swim, put on the wrap skirt over your bikini or swim suit, and go for a drink.
#6 A ultra short mini skirt to raise temperatures further. The ones athttp://www.buyclothing.net/mini-skirts.htm are perfect for an ultra sexy look. Again, this can be matched with your swimsuit, top and babydoll t-shirt for 3 more new looks.
#7 A pair of high heel sandals that is pretty enough for the restaurants in the resort. If it is too cumbersome to wear on the beach, you can always go around barefoot. Just make sure you get a pretty pedicure (and manicure) to show off on the beach. A pair of metallic gold or silver toned sandals would be glamorous, and go well with everything.

How To Get Sexy Legs In Just 3 Steps
by: Janice Wee
Guys do get distracted by long, lean, sexy legs peeking from the slit of a skirt, or flaunted in a mini skirt.
Any woman can have sexy legs. All you need to do is to keep your legs toned and wax them regularly.
Even cross dressers are able to make their legs look sexy.
To start with, first, you need to get your legs in shape. That means, get off your butt and start walking. Walking, running, jogging and climbing stairs really tone your legs.
Step 1. Tone your legs.
If you are serious about getting your legs very well toned, make that effort after work, to run for 45 minutes each day. You could run around the compound, run your way home, run on a jogging track or even in the gym. Just do it before dinner, straight out of the office.
On rainy days, climb the stairs instead. Try climbing up and down the stairs for a stretch of 30 minutes, without stopping.

Donald Trump?s Marketing Secrets Revealed!
Donald Trump?s Marketing Secrets Revealed!
by: Dan Lok
It's official!
Now in it's third season, Donald Trump's killer television series "The Apprentice" is officially a "franchise."
With new seasons in the making, a clothing line that carries "The Apprentice" brand, DVD's in production, and mega-fortunes to be made, it's no surprise that the king of real estate... a man who knows a good thing when he sees it... is involved.
I like Donald Trump a lot.
Mostly because I learn something new from him every time I watch him in action.
One of the barbs critics aim at Donald Trump is that he's a shameless egomaniac who can't get enough of the spotlight.
Well, they may call it egomania, but from my perspective... it's a brilliant business strategy.
I'll admit it: I'm a marketer.
My job is to make people sit up and take notice of my clients (and their products or services), and to deliver a "brand" message at every...

Plus Size Bathing Suits For All Figures
by: Chirsty Diaz
The reason so many of us hate shopping for plus size bathing suits is because we often don't know what style is the best for our figure. It's easy to pick the same unflattering style year after year. But, why not take a risk, and explore some new styles in plus size bathing suits? Let's review the most common figure complaints and find the most flattering styles.
Wide Hips, Big Thighs
This is probably the most common figure problem, but it can easily be camouflaged with the right suit. Look for one or two piece plus size bathing suits with high cut bottoms that will give the appearance of longer legs. If you are not comfortable with this much exposure, try a flirty swim skirt or sarong to cover the area. Avoid, at all costs, boy cut shorts. They can make your hips and thighs appear even larger and wider.

Who doesn't have this problem? One-piece styles with...
