TIPS: Men’s Self Confidence
1. A positive self-image.
2. Boost energy levels.
3. Plan some flexible goals for yourself.
4. Think about how you talk - slow, low and loud.
5. Be sharply dressed.
OK, clothes don’t make who you are but they can certainly make a difference and there’s no one more to be more conscious of your physical appearance than yourself.
When you don’t look good, it changes the way you interact with others. Take care of your personal appearance, you know what I mean, the usual stuff shaving, wearing clean and ironed clothes. Keep in touch with the latest styles in tune with your budget.
Select and buy quality clothes that will stay in style for longer rather than a load of cheap clothes that just won’t last and stay in shape and the end result in the long run, more money in your wallet and a decluttered wardrobe.
The more self confidence you have, the more likely you will succeed.

TIPS for A Winter Wonderland White Wedding
How lucky you would be to have it snowing on your wedding day in December.
Yes, majority of couples like to get wed in the summer months but a WINTER WEDDING can be incredibly glamorous and magical.
December is such a lovely and romantic time to get married and if you are really lucky can turn out to be a truly magical ‘Winter Wonderland’ to look back on.
WEDDING ATTIRE
It’s worth bearing in mind to get the colour and texture just right.
The photographs are going to be really bright so what colours would you choose for your bridesmaids?
Fabric: VELVET - soft, warm rich and luxurious.
Colour - a DEEP PURPLE, a BOTTLE GREEN and off course CRIMSON RED. Gold, Silver and Ivory too for your fairy tale spectacular.
Just remember the Hollywood film sets white fur or faux fur wrap in matching or contrasting colour to your bridesmaids with a long silk dress. Even better…how about a ‘velvet’ cape or a dramatic coat.
Your back drop could be crisp, white snow, red berries and glimpses of green grass and a few green leaves and a white or red Poinsettia, and a romantic red rose with the sun beginning to shine through on a late morning to a midday wedding celebration.
I know you can’t rely on getting snow for your wedding day, just the same really as getting sun shining down on you in the UK but nowadays anything is really possible.
For example: Had you thought of hiring a ’snow machine’ for your wedding photographs?
Will you be a Snow Queen or a Vintage Silhouette at your wedding?
