Women' Dressing Styles That Will Never Go Out of Fashion and Hence are Timeless

 Women's styles are always in the eye. From paparazzi to your own frenemy you will find what you wear will be admired or jeered at by those around you. Most women work their way around this and create a signature statement of their own so most of the times, people expect to see whatever they are wearing. Trajectory of dressing styles for women ranges from high comfort level to extreme fashion. This trajectory is so wide, at times, when it comes to minute observations the lines are blurred. Woman of today does not want to conform herself to a particular style that has been projected in fashion magazine. She knows her body type will decide her fashion and that she will select a style that will complement her body type and her skin tone. 

Manners and style are two things that will attract people to you. In fact, what seems flashy and garners instant attention often takes a backseat over gentle and subtle styling that remains etched in memory. Here are a few women' dress styles that will never go out of fashion.

Gowns: From wedding gowns to lavish party gowns, this is one piece of dressing that imbibes creativity and style at one go. Minimalist gowns to the well embellished ones, women themselves cannot get enough from the design and fashion sense that a beautiful gown made from silk, chiffons or lace. Most of the times, creation of most beautiful gowns includes all the three fabrics and much more.

Frocks, dresses or whatever you call it: These are pretty and cute. These are easily manageable and adjustable. You can decide which length you want the dress to be made. Ideally, these is an everyday wear, you can decide the fabric. Use of silk, chiffon, georgette is quite common for those dresses you want to wear in public or on an occasion. However, when it comes to dressing well and looking well indoors, most women rely on cotton or linen. This is simply because these fabrics are affordable and breathable. Wearing these for a long time will rarely cause any discomfort. Also, these fabrics can withstand wear and tear of every day chores. 

Jeans: Designer and shapely jeans can accentuate a figure, jeans are now available in so many different combinations other than the denims. There are the stretch denims, especially useful of you have thicker legs and you want to bring in the slim effect. There are also the flares, a fashion which keeps coming and going. There is the classic jeans, this is an all time winner, especially because it is cut and created to perfection and nothing compares to the fabric and look of classic denim jeans. Jeans are available in combination with spandex often to make them stretchable, this makes huge sense and saves a lot of money wasted on clothing. Creative people choose to 

T-Shirts: T-shirts come in a wide category, there are some to be worn at home as sleep wear or as casual wear. There are some well designed t-shirts which are incomparable with a pair of jeans. These t-shirts look classy and easily form one of your favorites in the wardrobe. T-shirts being called what they are is because of the  T shape that they form, these are one of the most easiest apparel to make in bulk. One of the basic material used in t-shirt is blend with spandex or hosiery which is a blend fabric of cotton and spandex to ensure the stretchability to make t-shirt easily wearable. Ease of wearing and ability of the fabric to soften over time are the two key reasons why t-shirts have become popular. Add design on the plain fabric and this shirt becomes a style quotient.

Shirts/Tops/Kurtis: Shirts as a singular garment form a range of  apparel, in fact these could be called an industry in themselves. Women' shirts are designed differently than men'. Also, as usual workwear would be different than the one at other times. These shirts are not just pretty, these are form fitting and you will find innumerable designs in each of them. Tops are hardly used for office wear, these could be made from mix fabric like the one used for t-shirts. Main different between the t-shirt and a top for jeans is the design. You will notice the neck and the overall look of a t-shirt is very casual and without much definition to the design. However, where a top is concerned there is more of design and this is good casual. A dress top or a jeans top will have elaborate fashion design that requires a little more creativity than a t-shirt.

Kurtis are more of Indian form of tops where in the fabric ranges from silk to pure cotton. Since India has been blessed with rich cultural and industry heritage, there is no dearth of type of fabrics and designs used for creating tops. You could indulge into Lucknow fabrics to the stunning silk from South, you can also decide to select the very attractive bandhej to the pure cotton Odisha fabric. There is so much choice from each state that it is impossible for an Indian woman to choose and pick one. Widest variety and some best fabrics make this range of apparel worth a mention.

Sarees: While we describe the women' most favorite dresses which are timeless, it is unfair not to mention the iconic sarees, sarees is a collective term, the west knows only the 6 yard, but there is the stunningly beautiful and form fitting 9 yard saree. Most expensive and the best artisans existed when British attacked India, those were the times where unprecedented destruction happened. Artisans were tortured and their thumbs cut off to discourage this industry. Some shrewd and good people protected artisans, their art and the stunningly intelligent and extremely intricate form of weaving and designing sarees. These are available even today. Woven sarees are found all over the nation. Each with its own identity vis-a-vis the threads, design, weave. Silver and gold were used for premium sarees, these are used till date when made to order. Silks like the Banarasi, Paithani, Kanjivaram and innumerable many more are even generational wealth, passed from one generation to another, these create wonderful legacy for women of family. 

Above are just some of the women' apparel which will never go out of fashion.

Skin - Miracle That Stays With You Since Your Are Born

   Evolution protected its creation, it granted every living being with a skin that covered the creature almost entirely. Though most other species were have accepted and have not been much conscious about their skin, the human being is never content with something that he/she was given. Skin was what you could call one of the most beautiful part of human existence. Skin not just covered someone, it gave everyone an identity specific to the person. A face, that exhibited and relayed almost every emotion that crossed the mind. It gave away only to provide with essentials like eyes, mouth etc., the reproductive system and the digestive system. However, humans were never content with what they looked like. Imaginably, from earliest times while glancing at the reflection in the water and finding some thing to be discontent with themselves, humans have managed to be absolutely creative with altering their looks. Opposable thumbs and thinking and speaking made it possible to make alterations easy. 

Hair has been altered using sharp stone before scissors were invented, to current weird trends using a meat cleaver to chop off the hair. Hair cutting machines, hair designs, hair cuts and hair color are some of the foremost and maybe easiest way to alter appearance. Skin however, cannot be changed at all. It is there to stay with you your entire life. You can take care of it, apply makeup, take massages, but how you look will more or less remain the same unless you do something drastic like a plastic surgery. This wonderful skin that spans  your body will look perfect when you are small and no you will not need to bother about hygiene, quality of water, moisturizing, etc. This is the time when someone else will most likely order you to clean up. Adolescent years are the time where you start to glow, because of changes in your body, hormones and that includes your appearance and hence skin. Real bother the skin can be is only when you get acne and pimples during these years. Your beauty is at its height in your teens till late twenties.

You pass over 35 and subtle changes in skin quality will become disturbing for you. You will spot wrinkles, change in color tones, skin will become like an unyielding stubborn part that will not become better even when you are taking all sorts of care. Wrinkling begins mid-forties and visible wrinkles and loosening of skin is apparent by the time you reach 50. If skin is your obsession and beauty you define is the way you look, you will need to prepare yourself to accept the way you look post 50, because you will begin the golden years of your life with more wrinkling of skin. 

 Humans have made skin care a huge billion dollar business, with large corporations creating generic skin care to small time entrepreneurs making products that tend to change or repair skin damage or simply care for it. Surgical advancement in skin is another very commendable achievement. Depending on your bone structure you can change the way you look completely, although this does not mean your facial functions will be like before, but this has been a boon to accident victims and those suffering from severe skin conditions. 

People are trying their best to look their best, advanced cultures across the world saw it prudent to remove a baby's hair with natural massage, using home ingredients and providing baby with life long beautiful body hair free skin. These grew up to be adults who had almost perfect skin and lovely skin health with minimal need for beauty treatments. However, these norms are not followed all over the world, thereby babies growing up with facial hair which can really impact the skin smoothness and beauty. For facial and body skin, there are several gadgets available today, earlier times, people used herbs for this purpose, however, general wisdom available from nature has been lost in the rush of instant and more flashy objects. 

Skin care, solutions to skin problems is available in several ways. You will find most of the ways discussed here along with some of the well known herbs that are used by common people are advertised well by skin care companies.

Hair Is a Necessary Beauty Feature But Has a Very Complex Relationship With Human Body

Hair in its prime beauty is nothing but absolutely stunning. Most people have it when they are born and the type of hair you will have is always genetic, therefore, the root of your hair will always have DNA match with your parents. However, hair which a young boy or a girl will never bother about much in their toddler and primary school years are generally overtly conscious about when they grow up. Each person has different type of hair and how it has been taken care of since childhood will decide whether or not you have gorgeous hair surrounding your face in your adulthood. Hair care is complex and yet it is simple and manageable. 

Humans are relatively spared of their humongous hair growth like animals, whatever hair they have on their body at birth generally tends to fall off. In some highly advanced parts of the world where ancient scientific practices are followed, these body hair are efficiently and harmlessly removed with baby massages which are done by specifically trained men and women. These massages also aim at removing body hair of the new born leaving their skin looking fabulous and smooth with minimal body hair. However, there are certain areas of the body where the hair will grow and you will have to remove it or care for it depending on where on the body it is. 

We are concerned about hair that grows on the scalp. It is pretty unpredictable. Yet, it somehow tends to survive the harshest treatment in your younger days, as you grow it might not consider being with you. Men tend to bald faster than women simply because of the hormonal make-up of the human body. Men need to take care of their hair. Modern day mouse and oils tend to keep hair on the head longer, however, use something its allergic to will ensure you are losing them faster and balding can happen in months. Most hair care is not just spa, you always need to take care of it at home. Men especially need to properly follow a routine, using natural ingredients which are beneficial to your health are always good. But following a proper routine will always do the trick. 

For routine nourishing, cleaning and conditioning your hair should be the norm. However, when you use oils like the coconut oil or the mixture of oils, your hair does tend to get coated with the goodness of these oils. When cleaned with shampoos, you need to make sure oil is gone, but most importantly the oil has already provided conditioning for the hair. Therefore, you may not want to use the conditioner. Most people with gorgeous hair have stuck with one type of product forever, in fact, they would never use anything that could upset the chemical balance on the scalp or at the roots of their hair. This is the lifestyle conditioning that could do good for male as well as female hair. 

Natural elements that affect your hair are in abundance too. Your diet is the main player in both hair growth, hair quality and hair and scalp ailments. Good diet does good hair, good sleep will benefit in overall maintenance balance of hormones and mental and physical wellness. Natural conditions of where you stay will also affect your hair health. Polluted hair and polluted water, heavy water, tend to affect hair and its quality negatively. Many people use different water, like filtered water for hair and facial care. This could boost hair quality and hair growth as well as arrest hair fall.

So let us explore more about hair care and hair fall.
