Facebookers or Wastebookers

If you want to catch up with your friends,  see the upcoming events, read the news or just waste time, Facebook is the right place to do it. All you need is Internet connection and you can surf through your facebook friends’  numerous statuses and photos, you can share your private thoughts and worries, show people what you did last night, even tag the people, who were with you; play various of games or check your horoscope, join different groups and many other things, which don’t cost you anything but your time. As a facebook user, I have different types of ‘’friends’’ who cause  various emotions in me(mostly negative).
Let me introduce you to the five most annoying types of facebookers.
Type 1:  The Status updater

From poetry through song lyrics to daily life stuff, this person constantly updates us with more and more details about his ‘’fascinating’’ life. Let’s call this person Jana and here’s an example:
‘’ Jana Good morning, guys!! Such a beautiful day,..damn, I’m hungry..’’ (55min ago)
’Jana.. I’ve got, I’ve got a pocket full of sunshine, I’ve got a love and it’s all mine, oohh (music) ‘’ (50min ago)
Jana still hungry.. I should probably go to the supermarket‘’ (45min ago)
Jana.. ugh, I can’t take it anymore, I’M GOING ! What should I wear?’’ (42min ago)
’Jana..’’
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.’’soo true!’’(40min ago)
‘ ‘Jana.. finally going to the supermarket(sun)’ (35min ago)

Mm, yeah. I know what you think: WHO CARES? Well, I don’t.
I’m pretty sure you all have at least one Jana in your FB friends’ list and if you don’t  - it’s probably you. And for the good sake of all of us go and find yourself a hobby! It’s just a status, not your diary.

Type 2: The so-in-love-couple

It’s good when you have a significant other with whom you can share everything, but does it have to be so damn public? Get a room already.

Type 3: The party animal
Taking late night photos with alcohol and cigarettes and uploading them on Facebook is so last year. Try something new and more original. PLEASE.
P.S.: And writing how drunk you are isn’t cool either.

Type  4: The permanent-brokenhearted

Ooh, the poor little thing looking for sympathy, AGAIN. Here are two things you should know:
1) Being brokenhearted makes you feel like a poet. At least try to be a good one or stop with the nonsense.
 2) Being a cry-baby, well… it makes you just pathetic.
So make life easier for everybody around you and MOVE ON. 

Type 5: The game-achievements-broadcasters
Facebook is also famous by its variety of games, but it’s really annoying when you go through your News feeds and all you see is ‘V. needs more energy to commit crimes’’, or ‘’V. got the highest score in level 5’’. I think you NEED to go out and GET a life.


Waste your time wisely.
Smile& go out.

Choose your shoes, choose your life.

Is it possible a pair of shoes to influence your life? .. Indeed.
With the appropriate shoes on you can feel more comfortable, taller, skinnier, sexier,  even more powerful and self-confident.
We all remember the bedtime story about Cinderella.. and if you don't, here are the key words which will help you: a beautiful girl, her evil step-sisters and wicked step-mother, a fairy Godmother, Prince Charming and a SHOE. And the moral of the story? No, it's not about how good always wins or how your dreams can come true. As we grow up, we realize the hidden note between the lines in Cinderella's story: ''With the right shoes, you can rule the world''.There wouldn't be a happily ever after if the shoe didn't fit her perfectly, right?

Here you'll find TOP 5 TYPES OF SHOES you MUST HAVE in your wardrobe:

1) Classic Black Pump - Whenever you're going to work, job interviews or other business occasions, these shoes are the perfect choice. The heel can be from 5 to 12cm, depending on your own preference. You can choose between different leather and fabrics. Keep it classy.

YSL

2) Peep-Toe Shoes  - These shoes are great for a date or a night out with the girls. The heel defers in size. You'll definitely feel and look fabulous and everyone around you will notice that. 

Gucci

3) Ankle boots - You can choose between different styles of ankle boots: from traditional ankle boots that come up just over your ankle to the menswear style booties that look like oxfords, but with a boot heel. The heel can be flat, stacked or even stilettos. The choice is yours.

Christian Louboutin



4) Flats - Although it looks sexy and stylish, being on heels all day long can be really exhausting. Flats are really comfortable and versatile. These shoes can be worn with jeans and other casual clothes. They differ in color and pattern.

Chanel

More suggestions: Adidas , Jeffrey Campbell  ,Miu Miu  , Prada ,


5) Athletic Shoes - You want to keep your shape? You'd better get a pair of trainers for that purpose.

Supra

More suggestions: Adidas , Le Coq Sportif  , Nike , Vans , Converse


So go and find the shoes that fit you perfectly and make your own fairytale.
And ladies,

If you love something set it free... unless it's your shoe collection.


Smile& go shopping.

VMA MTV: Overview

Another year, another MTV Video Music Awards. This time it literally blew my mind. Here’s a quick review of the top rated telecast of the year, which grabbed the biggest audience of the network’s history: 12.4million people. 

Lady Gaga opens the show as Jo Calderone



Lady Gaga dressed as her alter ego Jo Calderone performed her new single ''You and I'' with Queen's guitarist Brian May.





Beyonce performing ''Love on Top''




At last! After performing ''Love on Top'' from her new album ''4'', Queen B revealed (again) her pregnancy by pulling back her jacket and rubbing her baby bump. Her husband Jay-Z was cheering from the audience with his friend Kanye West. You're a  lucky guy, Jay, or let me say: the luckiest.


Beyonce revealing her pregnancy on the black carpet
Dressed in a beautiful one-shoulder orange dress, Beyonce was beaming while showing her baby bump on the black carpet. 


Kanye West and Jay-Z performing ''Otis''

Speaking of father-to-be Hov, he and Kanye surprisingly performed their new hit ''Otis'' from their joint album ''Watch the Throne''. During the performance a man run to the stage but he was quickly taken off by the security.


Justin Bieber on the black carpet
Justin Bieber showed on the black carpet with... a snake? Is that your new friend, Justin? How original..
Selena Gomez and Taylor Lautner presenting the Best New Artist

Ouch! Justin's sweetheart Selena Gomez standing next to Twilight's star Taylor Lautner, who appears to be sexy even with a shirt on. Jealous, Justin? You can't beat that.. even with your snake. 








Chris Brown performing ''Beautiful People''


  It's a plane, it's a bird, no, it's just Chris Brown. He sang and danced to ''Yeah 3X'', ''Protect Ya Neck'', ''Smells Like a Teen Spirit'' and while performing his latest single ''Beautiful People'' he 'flew' high above the crowd, connected to invisible wires and moved to another stage where he continue to do his thing. His incredible performance will be remembered for a long time. Well done, Chris.



Nicki Minaj on the black carpet


After receiving her award for Best Hip-Hop Video, Nicki Minaj thanked her family, Lil Wayne.. and God. But why God? He clearly didn't give you a good sense of style. On to the next one.
Adele performing ''Someone Like You''





Way more simple and clear was Adele's appearance. With a black dress, having her hair pulled back and standing in the center, backed by a pianist, her performance was more than stunning. No wonder that her album ''21'' is one of the hot-selling albums with her breakout hit ''Rolling in the Deep'', which is the best-selling record of the year.


Kanye West and Katy Perry receiving their award for Best Collaboration


No, this time Kanye didn't interrupt anyone. He and Perry won the award for Best Collaboration of the year for their hit ''E.T.''. Katy took home another two awards for Video of the Year and Best Special Effects. As she said: ''Anything can happen during the VMAs.'' and I guess she was right.

D&G Collection Fall-Winter 2011


When it comes to a fall-winter collection, we all expect to be in more conservative colors like black, gray and beige. But not this time. During the Milan Fashion Week,  Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana  released their magnificent collection full of bright and warm colors such as lemon yellow, neon orange, variety of pinks, green and a bit of black.  What makes it even more interesting and original is the fact that the clothes are covered with letters, some of which are separated or unrelated, others are combined in words or amusing phrases.  
This collection consists of a large number of airy dresses, fashionable tunics, colorful leggings, elegant jackets and all these clothes are matched with marvelous accessories and comfortable sneakers. Genius, huh?
