Here are some jewelry ideas according to generations!

Jewelry is a fashion accessory that has its admirers ranging from little girls to aged women and even men. Be it the little girls who just started to wear their mom’s jewelry or the aged woman who is trying to flaunt her elegant beauty or even the man who is wearing a ring or maybe a cool bracelet, everybody loves wearing jewelry. You will not find a rule book that says who should wear what jewelry, but it is rather something that we learn as we go. With our increasing age, we become more mature, and thereby there is a change in our personality too which in turn affects our perception towards different styles of jewelry.

Here are some jewelry ideas :

  • When you are just starting your career: The 20s, it’s the most important age for anybody who is looking to start a bright and good career. This is also the age range where we find our passion. This is not the age where we wear big diamond necklaces or heavy gold jewelry, rather it’s an age of wearing light-weight fashion pieces of jewelry or maybe a stud earring with a simple necklace. 

Since most of us who are at this age always need to be moving, whether it’s for job purposes or college, it’s preferable to wear light jewelry. 

Amethyst bracelets are a good choice to get started with since they’re simple, versatile, and affordable. In this age range accessorizing forms the most important part of dressing up. It is an age to go with the latest fashion trends. Wearing a beautiful purple amethyst bracelet will not only enhance your look but will give you the confidence that yes you can do it too! Such is the charm of an amethyst. It can clear your mind of any negative thoughts and give a boost to your morale. If you want a more sophisticated look, you can try pairing them with American diamonds. The purple color of amethyst along with the sparkling white color of diamonds will surely attract some attention towards yourself(for the right reasons) but it will also be subtle at the same time. American diamonds are relatively affordable and hence this type of setting will be within your budget too.

  • Racing 30s: The 30s is an age by which time we are in a settled career position or field. It is an age where we have to look our professional best. Diamonds are a good choice, so is a lapis lazuli necklace. Lapis lazuli is a mesmerizing stone with various healing properties. The best way to wear a lapis lazuli necklace is to pair it with either a gold or silver chain. This is because a small lapis lazuli stone is normally more polished than a large one. So the small stone along with the radiance of a gold chain or a cool silver chain will look more attractive. 

A lapis lazuli necklace has a heavy-looking stance, so you gotta plan and balance it out by wearing loose-fitting outfits or maybe a smaller size stone. If you are targeting a party or small office gatherings, then pairing a lapis lazuli with pearls or diamonds might be a good idea. Also, another obvious thing which you need to keep in mind is that since the lapis lazuli is deep blue, you should avoid anything in a bluish tone to avoid diluting your overall look.

  • The Middle Ground Forties: The 40s are an age where we reach a certain level in life. Most of us have already found our calling and have struck a balance. Diamonds are the best choice in this age range. A beautiful White diamond necklace along with a stylish outfit can throw you in the spotlight at a party more easily than any other necklace. It is an age when you can show off to the world your achievements and success. A diamond necklace will help you proclaim the crown and show to others that after working hard in your 20s, making solid commitments in your 30s, you finally reached your 40s and are now enjoying your life. There are many different types of diamonds and their color and texture vary according to the regions they were mined. 
  • American diamonds are the most cost-effective ones while the South African ones are the costliest. Choose according to what your budget permits you. Also if you fancy a diamond that has a different color than white, say pink, that to is available. Australian diamonds are mainly found with a pinkish hue. You can try to mix and match along with different outfits to find your unique style.

Tips to Live with a Baby in a Small Space

Living in a small space is already challenging as it is. It is even more complicated if you have a baby. Nobody likes to be in such a situation, but it happens anyway, even to those who think they have got it all figured out. Between the baby cot, the tiny clothes, swings, strollers, toys, and all the other things you have to fit into the baby’s room, all of a sudden, a spacious room can turn into a very tiny space.

We all know that babyhood is a critical stage in every child’s life. So, as a parent, you want to give your bundle of joy as much comfort as you possibly can.

The question is, how can you do that in a small space? Most people believe that this is an impossible task, but in reality, it is not. There are plenty of ways to manage your small space to accommodate the rest of your family and the baby.

In this article, you will discover a few of them.

  • Pack all the clothes, toys, Gear, and Everything else that the baby Does not Need Yet

Indeed, babies grow so fast. So, it makes a lot of sense to accumulate stuff that your little one isn’t ready for yet. But for the moment, you do not need to access those items.

To save more space, keep just what the baby needs right now and store the rest away. Under the bed boxes, closets, and high shelves are great places to keep items you do not need. And because sooner or later you will need those items, make sure you sort and label them to make it easy to locate them when the time comes.

  • Make Good Use of Your Vertical Space

When babies start to crawl and walk is when trouble begins. They move in every direction and pick everything in their way, put it in their mouth, or throw it around. That is very risky and can cause serious injury to your child.

The first thing you want as a parent is to protect your child. The second thing is to create enough space in your home. Using your vertical space to store some of your items is a perfect way to achieve both of those things.

For instance;

  • You can store your knives on a magnetic strip instead of keeping them on the counter,
  • You can hang your pans on the wall instead of keeping them in a drawer
  • You can use the floor to ceiling bookshelves to store your books; alternatively, you can install picture rails
  • If you have bicycles, you can mount them on the wall, and so on
  • Use Every Inch of Your Space

There are always these spaces in your home that you cant fit any furniture. Well, these spaces are beneficial for something too. You can use them to store stuff you rarely use, like warm blankets that you only need during winter.

In short, make sure you use every space in your room.

  • Baskets All the Way

Baskets are amazing. They are nice-looking, portable, and above all, easy to throw and pick stuff. You need to have them in every room. You can use baskets for just about anything from diaper supplies, books, toys, clothes, you name it. They are perfect for easy cleanup.

  • Choose Long-lasting, Good-looking Multipurpose Gear

Instead of having two or three strollers that will serve different needs, try to look for one that can serve multiple purposes. A high chair that your baby can use through their childhood and beyond is far much better than something you will need to replace in a year or two.

When choosing gear, you have to be extra cautious not to buy something that you will need to replace sooner rather than later (like in a year or two). Such stuff can fill up your home and take over your space within a blink of an eye; by all means, avoid them.

Conclusion

Babies are a blessing; there is no doubt about that. But they come with their own set of demands which can sometimes be very frustrating to fulfill. It is more frustrating if you live in a small space and have no clue how to deal with the whole situation.

Thanks to this article, now you have a few ideas to live in a small space with your baby.

Mr. Soft Top Has You Covered For Dog Fashions + Safety Benefits In The New Year!

Mr. Soft Top Designs Vet-Approved Luxury Dog Fashions for a Bow-Wow 2022!

Mr. Soft Top is a New Zealand-based brand that offers high-end dog attire that would make any dog owner proud. Its fashion meets function, from Merino tees and sweaters to raincoats and woolen coats. Get the camera ready because your canine companion is going to fill up your Instagram feed in the cutest way! An assortment of accessories, bedding, and dog slings round out the collection.

The premium material includes wool, cotton, lycra fabrics, and yarn from New Zealand. Founder Rachael Staples designs all the pieces, initially offering custom hand-knitted sweaters and expanding into a full line. With an emphasis on wool sourced from local suppliers, it’s the ideal layer of warmth for pups and a sustainable option.

Our furry BFFs will look marvelous dressed in warm attire that greets the winter season with style and comfort. Mr. Soft Top clothing is just as important in warm-weather climates to protect from the sun, heat rashes, overheating, or allergies (pups can even swim in them, too!). Bright and colorful tees are made from high-grade swimsuit lycra with 50+ UV protection and are available in sizes XS – XXL.

We sometimes forget that dogs can get sunburned too, especially those that are groomed regularly. Many breeds are susceptible to overheating in the summer, particularly short-nosed dogs, such as Frenchies or Pugs, so soaking the tee in cold water or wetting the dog while they’re wearing them helps to keep their core body temperature down. They’ll look and feel good!

For dogs suffering from allergies caused by vegetation or summer heat rashes, covering them up in a cooling tee helps protect their skin from constant scratching. The natural cooling effects of Lycra reduce the need to scratch and the tees prevent dogs from licking off any necessary rash creams that need to be applied.

Vet-approved for these reasons and more, pampered pooches everywhere are barking for these must-haves all year long, with wholesale options available.

Merino Tees

  • The original tee, handmade from luxurious New Zealand merino wool

  • These tees are perfect to wear on their own or under a coat or sweater for an extra layer of warmth

  • They also make ideal pajamas to keep your pup warm all night long

  • Seasonal colors include Burnt Orange, Dark Burgundy, and Electric Orange

  • Cotton and Spandex tops are also available

  • Prices range from $35 to $74

 

Lined Coats 

  • Extra soft, thick, and warm pure wool lining

  • Secured with a velcro strap at the belly and neck, making your dog the most stylish pup on the block

  • Water-resistant to stay dry if your dog gets caught in the rain while walking

  • Available in four styles and colorways

  • Price: $85 to $130

Raincoats

  • Made from a waterproof outer and lined with warm wool blend fabric

  • Secured with a Velcro strap at the belly and neck and featuring reflective stripes down back, neck and belly

  • Sizes available to fit most dogs

  • Offered in seven colors, including electric blue, red, and yellow

  • Price: $65 to $100

How Long is Recovery from Breast Augmentation?

When considering breast augmentation, people usually have their results in mind, not their recovery. If you decide to get a breast augmentation, make sure to discuss all aspects of your recovery during your consultation, so you know what to expect. 

How Does Breast Augmentation Work?

Breast augmentation, or augmentation mammoplasty, places an implant into the breasts to make them larger, more symmetrical, or more shapely. While most women probably go for the procedure for larger breasts, asymmetry isn’t uncommon, and breast augmentation can correct it without losing any breast volume. 

Breast implants come in saline and silicone forms. Both give people excellent results, although silicone implants often provide a more natural appearance, while saline implants look more bold and defined. Implants come in a range of shapes as well as sizes. Some people prefer softer implants with a more natural feel, while others would like their implants to make their breasts project out more noticeably. Whatever you would like your breasts to look like, your surgeon probably has an implant that can help achieve it. 

How Long is Recovery from Breast Augmentation?

As a surgical procedure, breast augmentation will have recovery time. You will want someone to stay with you for the first day or two after surgery since you will probably feel very sore during those few days. You can expect to spend at least a week recovering before you can return to any of your usual activities. You will have some pain and swelling after surgery that may take a few weeks to go away completely. You’ll be given a special recovery bra and instructions for how to keep your breasts bandaged while they heal.  

After surgery, your doctor will instruct you to inform them if you see any of these unusual but possible side effects:

  • Excessive bleeding
  • An unusual amount of pain
  • A lot of drainage from the incision
  • Any sign of a fever or increasing swelling

Most people will recover and return to their regular routine within a few weeks, and your breast implants shouldn’t need a replacement for at least ten to fifteen years. 

Is Recovery Longer if You Have a Breast Lift?

If you have sagging or loose breasts, an augmentation alone will not give you the results you want. Implants can’t correct loose skin or lift breasts that have sagged. A breast lift uses an incision around the areola and under the breast to remove excess skin and lift the breast tissue. If placing implants, the surgeon will also take this opportunity to create a pocket for the implant to rest in. 

Because this surgery involves larger incisions, you may feel more soreness after surgery and may need more time to heal. You will have more stitches with a breast lift, and the surgeon will have to remove loose skin, making this a more intensive procedure. Expect to spend a few extra days recovering before resuming any of your usual activities.
