Every little girl loves to play dress up and this party idea is very affordable and offers plenty of fun and creativity for a fairly large amount of friends and can even accommodate a wide variety of ages. The first thing you need to do is network! Call all your friends and track down as many Storybook costumes as you can. You may be surprised how many of these costumes were used at Halloween and will not cost you anything to borrow. You will also need a few moms, Grandma or favorite teenage babysitter to help out. Meet with all helpers before hand, explain your theme and encourage them to help the young girls feel truly madeover and beautiful.
Set up stations in different rooms of the house and rotate with Music. Keep your groups of girls small, no more than 4 per group but 2 would be ideal! Use your creativity in setting up stations. You could have a station for:


Alexis Mabille chose to show his Spring 2011 Couture collection in Musée Bourdelle where the sculptor Antoine Bourdelle made white plaster scale models as practice runs for his immense sculptures.  It only makes sense as mirror imaging was the theme of Mabille's show.  Each outfit was shown in white and then followed by a duplicate outfit that had been hand-painted in the colors of Sévres porcelain which are predominantly dark blue or turquoise but also includes rose pink, yellow and green.  This gave a dark versus light effect to the show.

 An ethereal white mini dress with a gorgeous sheer cape
Dramatized in black with floral and turquoise accents
 Also perfect as a wedding dress, the whole things flows freely

A white gown with bow at the waist and a sheer attached cape
My favorite gown from the collection

Barbie pink tuning car
Hello, hello! I am still looking for a car and only yesterday realized that, if I have no money (or not enough money) I can buy a second hand car and to tune it, I mean to apply a technique of tuning in order to make it unique and adorable. So, I have even start a new category –               car tuning. You are welcome to get acquainted with it!
The 1st post in this category will be, actually, an introduction…
Car tuning is a process of making any car looking pretty and unusual… Strange explanation? It is my own. To tell the truth, it is an industry and to most people it is a lifestyle, they just can’t imagine their lives without it. So, tuning, is (again a process) but of car modification. What for? To make car look more beautiful or more sophisticated, to improve some of its technical features or driving performance. As a rule, any car made at the car factory can satisfy only the demands of an average driver and while tuning a car, you can make it look in a completely other way. It is possible even to reduce the fuel consumption. There is one more sphere of car tuning is an exterior tuning. In such cars it is possible not only to drive comfortable but also to feel comfortable.

Perfectly tuned car
                  Most of the car-lovers and mechanics adore modifying:
  • Engine. Thus, they achieve better driving performance, car becomes a speedy one, helps to economize fuel or to reduce CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. The story of car engine tuning started many years ago with the modification of race cars and goes on till nowadays.
  • Body. For example you can add a spoiler, a wing or a body kit, in such a case it is possible to make the aerodynamic performance better. There is a very popular technique of car tuning – “shaving”. It implies the deletion of all “unnecessary” parts, to them belong door handles, locks, emblems and the rest of visible and protruded parts. In such a case the car will look smoother and more eye-pleasing. Also, you can change the doors of your car and make them opening as: “Lamborghini Doors” or “Suicide Doors”.
  • Suspension. What we can tune dealing with a suspension? Let’s start with the springs, then swaybars, shock absorbers and etc. Sometimes it is even popular to make wheels bigger or to set lowriders with hydraulic/pneumatic suspensions.

As a for me, tuning can make a pretty car out of a completely ugly one. Also, it is so important to keep the world clean, so, you can modify the engine or change it into an electric one.
