The Seasonal Fashion Craze To Make More Money!

                               The Christmas Sweater Phenomenon! 

Do have dreams of becoming the next Michael Kors or Besty Johnson?
Well, it took them yrs. to achieve their success, yrs. and you may not
have or want to devote that amount of time to becoming the
"next big thing in fashion." 

And that's that's okay, according to a story in Businessweek magazine,
Christmas sweaters are making a lot of people rich.
You know, those hideous looking things that only make an
appearance for 4 to 6 weeks a yr.
One guy placed professional football team logos on the sweaters, 
and is closing in on the million dollar mark.
A woman, concerned about the cost of college for her two kids,
stopped selling old albums, jewelry, dishes on Ebay and decided
to sell only Christmas sweaters, long story short-- she not only put her 2
kids through school, she also quit her full time job.

Hey, it may be too late for you to capitalize this yr. but
if you start planning now, (maybe a calender of ugly sweaters,
or a youtube page devoted to the worst looking Christmas sweaters
or make Christmas sweaters for pets) and you too, can fund your retirement,
take trips to exotic places or just make enough to stop the constant worrying
about bills, tuition, mortgages, etc.
It's up to you.

Good Luck!

American Music Awards Thanksgiving Rx For Future Moms!

                                   Eat This For Twins!

Did you see the "American Music Awards?" The highlights of the night--
Seeing the incredible 70 yr. old Diana Ross give Taylor Swift an award.
Seeing the energetic Pit Bull host and perform and of course, seeing
the ageless J Lo perform the hit song "Booty" with Iggy Azalea.
And speaking of J Lo, she's the mom of twins.
Some other famous parents of twins: Mariah Carey, Angelina Jolie
and Marcia Cross.

Not unusual, but all of them were over 30 yrs. of age. 
And what's so unusual about that?
Being over 30 raises your odds of having twins or triplets. 
That's not a misprint, and researchers think hormones are responsible. 
Older women have more hormones that result in women older than 30 having twins or 
triplets.
And what if you're 20 or 25, or even 29 is there any thing you can do to have
twins?
Yes, there might be a few things (food-wise) , and one of the foods may be 
present at your table this Thanksgiving.
What food is that?
Yams. Not sweet potatoes, but Yams.

According to food researchers, there's a part of Nigeria where a lot of the
women were giving births to multiples, and when the researchers went there
and studied their lifestyles- diets, exercises, sleep habits, etc. they
finally determined it was the yams.
Thanks to the warm climates, the people grow, sell and eat a lot of yams,
and the researchers then spent the next year studying the yam and it's
effectiveness on multiple births.
Their findings:
Yams balance hormones. Yams contain phytonutrients that work just like 
hormone replacement therapy. And if you're one who wants to have
your ideal family of two kids in one shot, perhaps adding more yams to your
diet may work for you.

And for those who are past the childbearing stage and are now dealing with 
hot flashes, night sweats, and tiredness, yams can also help you.
Hormone disrupters like obesity, cancer and bone thinning wreak havoc
on hormones and yams can help raise the number of protective hormones 
in your system.

So, if you're a young women under 30 or an older woman over 50,
yams can help you.
And if you want more tips (food tips) on how to increase your odds of
having twins (or triplets) head to Scribd.com and type
Fertility Secrets Doctors Don't Want You To Know, in the search bar.
Download it and read the section on having twins.

And 2 last things...
Make sure if do serve yams, serve them in ways that are beneficial to your health
and well-being...meaning without loads of sugar.
Lots of sugar is another enemy of a healthy birth.
And being over 30 also raises your odds of having babies with serious health
issues. (like Down Syndrome, Autism, etc)

Good Luck!

The Jay and Bey Beverage Rx For Lower Cholesterol!

                  The Champagne Room!
If you're really into Pop culture, then you probably
know about super-rich husband and wife team "Jay-Z and
Beyoncé latest acquisition.
What is it? It's a champagne company.
That's right, mansions around the World, a restaurant
a nightclub, and a sports management company weren't enough,now they've
added a Champagne company to their portfolio.
And if you're wondering how this affects or benefits you,
it doesn't, but what may benefit you, is some champagne
everything  now and then.

Yes, it's too pricey for most of us, but a few glasses
a week can help boost heart health and brain health.
Brain and hearth health, come on.
Well, it's true, just like wine, champagne can open up
arteries, allowing for better blood flow and keep
harmful plaque from sticking to artery walls.
And that means a better working heart and brain.

So, to get you started on a better heart and brain,
here's a recipe using champagne and some other fruit juices.
The Ingredients...
3 oz chilled Cranraspberry Juice
1 oz chilled Acai juice
2 oz. chilled Sparkling white grape juice 2
2 oz. chilled champagne
Combine in a small pitcher, stir
and pour into 2 chilled glasses.
And one more benefit, the Acai juice and Cranraspberry juice
will help lower cholesterol.
There you have it, an adult beverage that actually bolsters your health.
And lastly, if you're not a drinker, or you can't afford the
Champagne, that's alright, just leave it out.

Good Luck!

T.V. Chef's Rx For A Beautiful Smile!

                  Rachael Ray's Tip For Whiter Teeth!

Did you happen to catch Rachael Ray's show yesterday?
Well, since it's the Holidays, she cooked a dish
that's related to the Holidays, the dish: Cranberry
Relish!

She didn't actually cook it, T.V. Chef Katie Lee
(The former Mrs. Billy Joel) made the dish.
And if you want a Hollywood smile but
don't have " Hollywood" money-then we suggest
you start using more cranberries in your daily menus.
Cranberries for one's smile?
Yes, but fresh cranberries mind you, not the sugar
laden stuff in the cans.

Cranberries have been used for decades to stop bacteria
from sticking to the urinary tract wall (UTIs)
but new research says they cranberries can also
stop bacteria from sticking to teeth and gums,
helping to prevent cavities and gingivitis.
And if that's not impressive enough, cranberries
can also zap harmful cells in your breasts.

So, if you were reluctant to use fresh cranberries this
Holiday season, maybe this post will change your mind.
Thanks Rachael Ray and Katie Lee.

Good Luck!

The Hollywood Rxs For Choosing The Perfect Holiday Dress!

                    Dress Successfully This Holiday Season! 
Oh no, it's holiday season again. And if you're in Hollywood that means
non-stop award shows.  And for the rest of us mere mortals--Thanksgiving at a relative's or
the annual Christmas party.
Well, whatever category you fit into, you want to make sure you look
your best, and according to a top stylist, finding the right dress for your
body type is where you should begin.
So, look below, identify your body type "flaw" and find out
how best to address that "flaw" or "flaws".
a) Extra Padding All-Over!
Simply put- if you have a little extra on your middle or back, then you should
go with Strategic Ruching.
More than one trouble spot? Get a Faux wrap-dress with soft Ruching across
the middle. Not sure where to find such a dress? Go online to Bonton.com.
Look for R&M Richards Long Sleeve Mock Clip West Tulip Wrap Dress
in Red.
b) Thighs and Hips-
Extra padding on these 2 trouble spots?  You're not alone, and if you want to
make them less noticeable this holiday season, Go with a solid skirt and a
lacy top. Go online to DavidsBridal.com for some great looking options.
c) Waist Not-
Have a waist that's a little more prominent than you want?
Go with a One-shoulder style dress. This type of dress helps you
look 10 pounds thinner. For some great looking dresses, go online to
Zappos.com and type Donna Morgan Rhea One Shoulder Dress in the
search bar.
Also helpful---a type of corset that'll really help you look a few inches
slimmer. Go online to JCP.com amd look for Maidenform Waistslimmers.
d) Baby Doesn't Want Back-
Unless you're Kim K. A rear that's starting to head south is a problem 
far too many of us have and to combat it-- Choose a Mermaid gown.
This type of gown tapers in at the upper thigh and nips in under the rear;
then flows out as it nears the floor. And this creates the illusion that the
backside is higher and rounder.
Go online to SimpyDresses.com and look for the floor length sleeveless dress
with lace embellished backs in Royal.
e) Baby Got Real Back-
And we're actually talking about the real back this time, not the bum or bottom.
Fitting into that great looking dress can do wonders for one's self esteem,
but then you turn around and find that there's too much on your back,
as in back bulge.
Don't let it get the best of you this yr. choose a dress that has a
patterned sheath. These types of dresses are typically cut with a higher
back and smaller armholes, which help spread the pressure of the dress
evenly over your whole back.
Look for a patterned sheath dress online at JNY.com in Taupe/Black.
f) The Bustline-
More specifically- a bustline that's also going south. A saggy bust can make finding
the right dress maddening and to create a more uplifted and perky chest,
go with a Sweetheart Halter.
No, we're not talking about the halter tops that were all the rage back in
the 70's and 80's, this type of halter is a dress.
A dress with 2 straps, and those 2 straps will make sure the 'ladies"
or the "twins" stay up where they belong.
Look for a Sweetheart halter dress online at DavidsBridal.com.
Choose the dress from the bridesmaid collection, the high-low halter
dress in Marine.

That's it, and if you want some makeup tips to go along with
that new dress you just purchased, go online to Amazon.com/the kindle
store and type The Celebrity Makeup Rxs. Some type stylists
reveal their secrets for applying makeup that'll help you
look thinner. Or styling your hair to look 5 to 10 pounds thinner.

Good Luck!

Hollywood's Green Rx For People Over 40!

                        Stop The Graying Of America! 

We're in the middle of a revolution, what type of revolution?
A green revolution!
A green revolution is the increase of vegetables in our diets. 
Thanks to Dr. Oz. Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Ellen Degeneres,
Kristen Bell and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Well, these people may be eating their fill of asparagus, 
carrots, kale and beets, but they may be missing out on
a vegetable that can help them and you look a lot younger.

The vegetable: Wheatgrass.
Yes, that little patch of grass you see at the health-food store
or you grow at home.
And what is it that wheatgrass can do that asparagus, cucumbers
and kale can't do? 
Turn your hair back to it's original color. 
That's right, a woman (age 43) with a few gray hairs showing,  started to drink
some wheatgrass each morning, hoping it would help boost energy. 
The wheatgrass did more than that , it actually turned her hair back to its
original color.
And if you've  been using those expensive dyes, or spending money at
salons every 8 wks. perhaps you may want to take a shot each morning. 
A shot of wheatgrass.
And a few more tips for those willing to try something not to great tasting
and all-natural.
* The wheatgrass will not work if you continue to eat a typical American diet.
An occasional splurge of a burger, fries and a milkshake is okay, but do it on
a regular basis and your hair will remain gray. You may want to think about
following the Paleo diet, the Mediterranean diet or a vegetarian diet to really
slow down the aging process.
* Look into growing your own... Wheatgrass. Go to Youtube for lessons 

on how to grow your own wheatgrass.
You'll save money, plus you'll also know exactly what's going into your plants.

Good Luck!

A Funny Lady's Rx For Maintaining Weight!

                        The Seinfeld Rx! 
Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus has been around for quite a while.
Now in her early 50's, she looks better than ever.
She was on Saturday Night Live, Seinfeld, Day By Day, The New Adventures of
Old Christine and at this present time, she's starring in Veep.

Like a lot of stars Ms. Louis-Dreyfus has to watch her weight.
Not only because she's 5' 1" tall, but to make sure Hollywood continues to
offer her leading lady roles.
And if you too, struggle with weight, do like Ms. Louis-Dreyfus and
start eating breakfast.

That's right, no starvation diets, no hours doing Pilates, just a
plain, old-fashioned breakfast.
And her breakfast of choice: 
Eggs, fried in a little olive oil , a slice of whole-grain bread smeared with some
honey.
Ms. Louis-Dreyfus said that a few yrs. ago, she was a breakfast skipper, 
but decided to start eating it after hearing about the benefits.
One benefit in particular--she doesn't snack mindlessly (and endlessly)
at 1 or 2 in the afternoon and continue doing it right up until 6 or 7 pm. 
No, she says that a good-quality and filling breakfast has put an end to
that.

So, if you're struggling with cravings and snacking on fattening
and forbidden foods well into the evening hrs. take a page out
of the Julia Louis-Dreyfus handbook and start eating breakfast.
And lastly, if you're not an egg and turkey bacon kind of gal,
there are always fruit and veggie smoothies, gluten-free
pancakes, bowls of steel cut oatmeal, mushrooms and veggies 
and brown rice with cinnamon, allspice, and some low-glycemic
fruits, (apples, pears and berries).

Good Luck!

nap, you can expect some great benefits.
What type of benefits? 
a) lower risks of cancers,  breast,  prostate (Men) colon and lung.
b) A healthier heart
c) Better weight control
 That's right, sleeping less than 6 hrs. means you'll most likely
have a harder time maintaining or losing weight.
And your cravings for carbs will be really intense.
d) Mind Control-
  This simply means, naps lower your  odds of getting dementia or Alzheimer's.
e) Better Moods-
 If you feel grumpy during the day, you may need more sleep at night,
 or a nap during the day. Naps also help you beat the blue moods associated
  with the cold, dark days of Fall and Winter.
There you have it, 5 tips for better health, and a few more things to
consider...
don't sleep more than 20 minutes, why? it'll confused your body and
make it hard to sleep at night.
And for the 1st tip regarding cancer. It's especially important that you
