4 Important Factors to Consider in Order to get the Perfect T-Shirt for Your Body

Mi-D-Hthr-Navy-Org-logo-T-Amzn-600x600

It is very difficult to go wrong when you are trying to style a t-shirt. However, funny enough some people still manage to style their t-shirts in the wrong way. There are just so many ways of styling a t-shirt and you can combine it with just about anything- shorts, shirts, trousers, jeggings and leggings. The choice is absolutely yours. But you have to make sure that you wear the right t-shirts. This is often the mistake that many people make. You cannot combine a wrong t-shirt with your trousers and expect everyone to stop in admiration of your outfit.

Just like there are many ways of styling a t-shirt, there are many ways of choosing the wrong t-shirt. It is worth pointing out that this article is not about those t-shirts that you go to sleep in. Those ones you can wear in any way that you wish to. After all, there is no one who will be seeing you in your dreams, right? The t-shirts that you go to the mall in on Saturdays and the ones you wear to the park on Sunday afternoons should be the right ones. Here are things to consider when you are buying a t-shirt.

  1. Colors

Please avoid colors that make you look sick. There are some colors that might make your skin appear too pale or simply make you look exhausted. For some people, brown is that color and for others,it is yellow. When you are buying a t-shirt, try as much as possible to make sure that you select the best colors that are available in the market. If you are not able to decide on the best colors that work for your skin, you will find neutral colors like black, white and grey to work out for you.

  1. Size t-shirt

It is very important to remember that size is everything when it comes to t-shirts. Gentlemen, there is a whole world of difference between a muscle shirt and an undersized t-shirt. When you get the right t-shirt size and choose products of a good brand like the LivnFresh-Michigan t-shirts, you will be good to go. You will be able to show off your nicely toned arms and well-worked chest easily. If you are in an undersized t-shirt, you will be so uncomfortable that you will be unable to do much.

  1. Quality

If you have ever bent and then your dress or trouser ripped, you know how important quality of material is. A brand like LivnFresh produces very amazing products. They are the kinds of outfits that will make you turn into a hoarder. You will not want to let go of the products. This means that you might find yourself wearing some shirts that are slightly below your size. There is little risk of ripping though. They employ the best quality material in production.

  1. Design

There are designs for women and those that look great on men. Generally though, women can wear men’s t-shirts but men cannot do women’s clothes. They will look a bit weird. Make sure that you buy the right design that suits your body.

Katherine Silverson is a fashion blogger. She has been writing about the leading brands in the market. These include the likes of the LivnFresh-Michigan for Michigan t-shirts and hoodies. She is fond of this brand owing to the quality of the products that they deliver.

Mason Jar Spring Table Centerpiece

diy-on-the-fly_spring_tablescape_julee_irelandClick here to watch my video tutorial: https://youtu.be/HrDjrFIoOKw

Throwing an Easter party? or hosting a brunch? I have some super simple ideas to help you dress up your table and create a fun centerpiece that all of your guests will love.  I used old mason jars, a glass mug and a few figurines that I found around my house to make these adorable mason jars that I filled with candy to create the perfect centerpiece for my dining table. Here is how you make it!

Supplies: Assorted glass jars with lids, candle stick holders in desired heights, ceramic, paper or plastic seasonal figurines, animals, knobs etc. to decorate your lids, Hot glue gun, Spray paint in desired color, assorted candy, nuts etc. to fill your jars with.
Step One: Spray paint the jar lids, your desired decoration toppers for your lids and your candle stick bases in your desired color(s) and let dry.
Step Two: Use your hot glue gun to glue your jars to the candle stick bases and the decoration toppers to the center of your lids.
Step Three: Fill your jars with your desired candy or nuts and display.
Step Four: Create a display using your jars on your table or give them as a unique homemade gift to someone special.

I used faux grass that I found at Michaels craft store for the center of my table and created a display using my candy jars with sprinkled paper flowers. I love the way it turned out and most of the items that I used I found around my house!  You don’t have to spend a lot of money to decorate your home or to make a festive centerpiece for your next party, holiday or special occasion. Have fun creating your next DIY table centerpiece. Be sure to check out my YouTube channel and my new web series DIY on the FLY at www.youtube.com/c/juleeireland and please like, share and subscribe. Each month I post new DIY on the FLY video craft project tutorials for your home and lifestyle. They’re always chic, easy, super fun and budget friendly to make!

The Secret to taming stubborn hair is a Jose Eber Vibrating Flat Iron

th

For a long time now, people everywhere have been flat ironing their hair to get the silky, straight hair they desire. This includes myself; I’ve gone through many different flat irons. I tried one recently and has easily become my favorite. It’s the José Eber Vibrating flat iron. I know you’re probably thinking Why does it vibrate? To answer that question, the vibration is used to shake out and transform any kinks, waves, or curls into flawless straight hair. With this and it’s combination of high heat, you’re guaranteed to have silky straight hair no matter what type of hair you may have. Personally, I have long, wavy hair that is very thick. And since it’s so thick, it’s usually a chore for me because I’ll have run normal flat irons through my hair several times before it straightens at all.

KBvVtnP0Thanks to that method, I get split ends relatively easy. I guess you could say I was a little nervous before trying this flat iron. I know heat causes split ends inevitably, but I was a little concerned that I would have to swipe my hair 7+ times to see results like I normally do. In the end, I only needed to swipe the iron 1-2 times which was great for me because less heat on my hair = less damage. In conclusion, this is honestly one of the best flat irons I’ve used in a really long time. If you have really stubborn hair like myself that refuses to straighten out with a normal flat iron, you won’t regret giving this flat iron a chance!
