Book excerpt: "There are really only two kinds of clothes in the world—those that make you look fat and those that don't. All the rest is just details," writes style maven Leah Feldon. "If you really want the answer to 'Does this make me look fat?' this is where you'll get it—whether you're an ultra-size diva on a mini-size starlet. Here, clothes that add heft are taken to task and those that diminish it are cheered. In these pages you will find out exactly what you need to know to make you look slimmer, taller, and better-proportioned in your clothes." Feldon both enlightens and delights as she takes on old clichés, details common mistakes, and shares the fine points of "Camouflage Chic." "It's about artfully disguising figure challenges while highlighting your assets and adding a dash of real style." Packed with practical, easy-to-implement tips, celebrity quotes, and illustrations, Does This Make Me Look Fat? gives you all the information you need to pull together a totally slimming wardrobe—and help your favorite man do it, too. Feldon has been at the forefront of the fashion industry for more than twenty years, as a stylist, designer, image consultant, journalist, author, and television commentator and host. She has dressed models, celebrities, and "real people" alike, and in the course of her career has learned that any figure can be improved with the right clothes. Does This Make Me Look Fat? covers such topics as: —design details that pack on pounds —the "yes" and "no" colors —slacks—pleated versus unpleated —shapewear that really works —which fabrics slim and which ones plump —outfits guaranteed to make you love your thighs again —styles that have to go—what to toss and what to keep If you follow the clever advice in this book, the next time you ask, "Does this make me look fat?" the answer will be a resounding "NO!" You'll never again waste money on things you'll never wear, or waste time trying on every-thing in your closet to find the least fattening outfit. You'll buck the trends and will know the distinction between fad and fashion. But this book is also about finding your personal style. "When your clothes are in perfect harmony with your body and your personality and the special qualities that make you unique in this world," says Feldon, "you've crossed the line from ordinary fashion to great style. My goal is to help you cross that line—looking fabulous all the way!"

Download or read book The Trees of Mamre written by Shirley Emmett and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-06-21 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The war of 1812 was over. American colonies had begun recovery efforts in towns and cities ravaged by the invaders. While there was ongoing grief over the loss of sons and husbands who had been killed, others struggled to cope with issues brought home by those crippled both in mind and body. Young Emily Spencer was gradually recovering from a breakdown following her own experience in the war and the untimely death of her mother with whom she had recently been reunited. To lift her spirits, Emilys aunt Lucinda suggests they take a steamboat ride from Pittsburgh down to New Orleans. Along the way, Emily runs into an old childhood friend, James McKee, who suggests she put her trip aside in order to visit the Indiana Territory, where Emily spent a great deal of her younger years. Seeing this as perhaps her last adventure before an arranged marriage, she agrees to go with James. Old relationships deepen as Emily is drawn once more into the lives of her friends. Working side by side with the Hauffman women at Mamre, she realizes the heartaches of her past have taught her how to comfort aching hearts of others. It seems this is the purpose of her return to Mamre, but God has another reason which she is unable to see and accept until the walls of doubt and fear she has built begin to crumble, allowing her to receive the answer to her deepest desires.

Download or read book The King s Daughter Workbook written by Diana Hagee and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2005-04-17 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 13 week, interactive study looks at issues many women face today and reminds them of their inherent value as daughters of the one true King. Mordecai's challenge to Esther, "Were you not born for such a time as this?" is repeated for all women throughout the ages, says Diana Hagee. Every woman has a divine destiny. But women cannot fulfill that goal unless they understand His biblical guidelines. In this interactive workbook, Diana leads women through a self-examination of their lives and their goals from God's perspective, not the secular society's. Topics such as self-esteem, diligence, attitude, goal setting and stewardship encourage women to establish a strong foundation for growth while learning to see themselves in a new light. Through scripture, thought-provoking questions and answers, prayers, practical advice and devotional ideas, women learn how valuable they are to God and how they can have an intimate relationship with Him while evaluating the standards that make them a daughter of the King.

Download or read book Syd Barrett Pink Floyd written by Julian Palacios and published by Plexus Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Syd Barrett was an English composer and purveyor of some of the most intriguing music ever written. Famous before his twentieth birthday, Barrett led the charge of psychedelia onstage at London's famed UFO club. With a Fender Telecaster and a primitive Binson echo unit, Barrett liberated the guitar from being, in critic Simon Reynolds' words, 'a riff machine, and turned it into a texture and timbre generator.' His inspired celestial flights of improvisation, and his more structured and whimsical short songs indicated a mind of unusual inventiveness. Chief in Barrett's mind was a Zen-like insistence on spontaneity; each performance had to be unique, and Barrett strived to push his music farther and farther out into the zone of complete abstraction. This in-depth analysis of Pink Floyd founding member Syd Barrett's life and work is the product of years of extensive research. Lost in the Woods traces Syd's swift evolution from precocious young art student to acid-fuelled psychedelic rock star, and examines the myriad musical and literary influences that he utilised in composing his hypnotic, groundbreaking songs. A never-forgotten casualty of the excesses, innovations, and idealism of the 1960s, Syd Barrett is one of the most heavily mythologized men in rock, and Lost in the Woods offers a rare portrayal of a unique spirit in freefall.
