24 Jul 09 Afflicted by Women’s Fashion
Affliction clothing is a California based clothing company known for its high end street wear heavily influenced by tattoo art culture and a gritty Rock ‘n Roll lifestyle. The company entered the men’s fashion scene with a sonic boom with Affliction shirts and Ts emblazoned with tattoo inspired art and a recurring theme of skulls and crows.
Affliction Clothing, initially a mens clothing line, has a strong unisex appeal, and recently launched its new women’s clothing line, Affliction Women’s Black Premium Collection.
The Women’s Black Premium Collection is an ensemble of premium designs, fabrics and finishes, creating an eclectic fusion of art and street cred fashion. Eric Foss and his design team at Affliction have taken the sexy female form and given it an edgy, acidy rock & roll twist.
The line features tops and dresses in satin silk and chiffon, trimmed with leather and hardware that never strays far from its rock ‘n roll roots. Tops and dresses include blouses, tunics, mini & long dresses. The denim range created by a new Affliction denim design team features a variety of styles and washes. All styles have custom details and hardware, which include an eclectic mixture of Swarovski crystals and leather trim.
All tops and dresses are printed in original edgy artwork, designed by Creative Director Eric Foss. The graphic designs reflect the Collection’s loud rock ’n roll roots and make it relevant and credible to its followers. While this is relatively new line, there may be some discounts to be had at an Affliction sale near you.

24 Jul 09 Women expressing themselves through their shoes
Few fashion designers have risen so quickly and to such dizzy heights as Christian Louboutin. The maestro of ladies’ fashion footwear is revered by elegant women from Los Angeles to Paris and Monte Carlo. His inspiration came to him as a child when he spotted a sign of a stiletto heel at the Museum of Oceanic Art in Paris, warning women not to scratch the wooden floor with their high heeled shoes. It was an omen of great things to come. Louboutin spent his school years exhaustively reproducing sketches of stiletto shoes in his exercise books. He became obsessed with the idea of shoes as objects of beauty.
Christian Louboutin puts everything into his shoes. He scribbles, he dreams, preoccupied by overall line rather than detail. His method of design is to draw freely, evolving the design until he is satisfied with the end result. The boy who drew shoes became the man with the red soles; a trademark which is often imitated. Some of his biggest fans include Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry and Salma Hayek.
Another fashion house famous for its designer shoes is Louis Vuitton. With Louis Vuitton shoes you are not just spending money on quality, but also a perfect fashion accessory which adds fabulous elegance to your fashion style
And still on the subject of fashion, what can be more fashionable than a pair of mens True Religion jeans? True Religion is renowned for producing denim that manages to be both timeless and yet trendy, reflecting a true sense of style.

24 Jul 09 Saving Money on Fashion without Sacrificing Style
With the current downturn in the economy, one can’t help but want to save money. When it comes to fashion, there is a great way to save money without having to sacrifice style, and that is by buying replica handbags. Why replica bags? Obviously there’s a huge difference in price between replica bags and the originals; but that’s where the difference ends. Replica handbags are faithful copies of the originals, sourced from specialized factories experienced in the production of high quality imitation handbags. The aim is to give customers that same luxurious feeling of style, pride and status they would get from an authentic designer handbag – at a fraction of the cost.
So where does one start when selecting a good replica designer handbag when there are so many to choose from? You can’t go wrong with choosing one of the Louis Vuitton handbags. This famous fashion house produces probably the most sought after range of bags in the world. Louis Vuitton is especially known for their patented signature monogrammed print: the beige-on-chestnut monogrammed LV.
Louis Vuitton began in Paris in 1853 as a manufacturer of high-quality traveling trunks and is now one of the oldest designer fashion houses in the world, manufacturing the famous Louis Vuitton handbags. Today, the Louis Vuitton brand is well-known for its signature LV logo; and has a huge celebrity following. Celebrities famously known for owning Louis Vuitton handbags are Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan, and many more. It’s no wonder that Louis Vuitton knockoffs and Louis Vuitton replica luggage is so popular.

24 Jul 09 Pretty Women – Elegance and sophistication at affordable prices.
The world of iconic European fashion, designer collections, and luxury shopping at exclusive boutiques is only available to the select few – namely, the extremely rich and famous. Who will ever forget the Julia Roberts character in Pretty Women being let loose on fashionable Rodeo Drive for the first time, with Edward’s (played by the handsome Richard Gere) credit card at her disposal? While the Julia Roberts character was way out of her depth and made to feel uncomfortable by the snooty sales assistant, most women would have very little problem spending a wad of money in a very short time on all the latest designer goodies. Just think of all those exquisite designer purses and handbags: Chanel, Prada, Louis Vuitton, Fendi – where would one even begin?
Well, I suppose we could daydream all we want, but the sad reality is that very few of us end up falling in love with handsome billionaires. For most of us, buying authentic designer handbags and purses will remain just a distant dream. But why shouldn’t every woman have the right to look glamorous with a Gucci, or Fendi, or Louis Vuitton or Chanel slung over her shoulder? Every woman deserves the right to look and feel fabulous, so why not go ahead and spoil yourself with one of the beautiful knock off designer handbags available? These knock off purses offer the finest quality at prices that suit every budget. Knock off Louis Vuitton handbags and clutches are available at the fraction of the cost of the original – and look every bit just as good.

24 Jul 09 The Legend of Coco Chanel
“Fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” – Coco Chanel.
Coco Chanel rose to become one of the premier fashion designers of her age. Starting out as an ambitious milliner, by the 1920’s she was the toast of Paris and probably one of the most famous fashion legends that ever lived. Replacing the corset with comfort and casual elegance, her enduring fashion collections included suits and dresses with simple, understated lines; comfortable women’s trousers, costume jewelry and, of course, the famous Chanel No 5 perfume. She was also the fashion designer responsible for introducing the chic, understated and timeless “little black dress”.
Today, almost a century later, the Chanel brand still carries that same mystique, elegance and understated style, and the latest collection of Chanel purses is particularly in demand. But of course, most of us can only dream of owning a genuine Chanel. However, that is no reason why we should give up on the idea of being part of the very latest fashion trends.
It is within our reach to look stylish and elegant and enjoy owning the very latest Chanel designs by choosing one of the many replica Chanel handbags available online today. You can buy any of the many designer replica Chanel purses available, inspired by the enduring legend of the house of Chanel. These copies are perfect imitations of the authentic Chanel bags and purses. They are reproduced by the finest manufacturers using only premium materials.

24 Jul 09 The Nike Legend and Air Force One
Since Nike re-released the Nike Dunk in 1998 the sneakers have gone on to become iconic classics. The newly released Nike brought out classic color combinations in both the Dunk High and Dunk Low models. Nike then took their designs further by collaborating with popular artists, designers, and athletes. These caught the imagination of a new generation of inner-city youth that quickly spread to rap and hip-hop artists. The limited-edition designs, especially, created a feeding frenzy among eager consumers.
Nike also cashed in on the resurgence of the skateboarding scene by introducing the Dunk SB (SB for Skate Boarding). The Dunk SB model featured a “Zoom Air” insole and an extra padded tongue designed for comfort and better skating performance. Some of the SB designs are limited editions, giving them instant street value with sneaker collectors. Limited Dunk SB designs fetch high prices online and some pairs increase in value by hundreds of dollars just hours after being snapped up in the stores.
However, the Dunk has not been the only sneaker legend created by the successful Nike brand. Air Jordan shoes wrote their own legend into the history books when they became the first sneakers to use the patented Nike Air Technology (The process utilizes pressurized gas encapsulated in polyurethane). Bruce Kilgore created the Nike Air Force 1 in 1982. The sneaker was originally named after the US president’s aircraft, and later Nike brought out the famous Air Jordan brand when it collaborated with famous basketball legend Michael Jordan.

22 Jul 09 Stop Struggling For Phone Sales
I work in outbound sales, and I love my job. But I didn’t always, and in fact for many years I dreaded walking through those doors and into my cubicle, where I knew I had a long day of hang ups, angry voices, and plummeting sales stats. That is, until I found the handy little tool that saved my life, my job, and my sanity.
I was looking online for a support forum for people who worked in telemarketing, and I found a reference to credit repair travel leads, with a link. I decided to check it out, and I was amazed by what I found. I had no idea, up until that point, that I could by my own call lists, or that you could find filtered targets within one field.
But they had more than just those leads generated for my market, which is why I am writing this post. They have everything from insurance to sweepstakes leads, and all for a low price that pays dividends in the end.
This is an amazing investment that helped me to boost my sales immediately. I ended up buying lists regularly, and my bosses were amazed. I went from barely making a sale once a day to making dozens a week, and all thanks to these lists.
Just make sure that if you go looking for lists yourself, you find handwritten leads that have not been shared with anyone else. Anyone who sells hardcopies is a good bet.
