Quick Tip

*I Have Streaks

If you have gone a little overboard with the self tanners, head for the kitchen and a wedge of lemon. Icing the area with the juice of the lemon will even out the streaks quite nicely.

*The Right Bra

Different dresses call for different bras. If you aren't sure, take your dress with you and ask for help at your favorite lingerie outlet. The sales staff will know what to show you.

*All About Sandals

There are about a zillion different kinds of sandals on the market, and telling your which one to choose would be rather difficult. I can tell you however (from experience) what to look for. So, here goes… if the sandals have straps, make sure that they are sturdy. And watch for the ones that cut across the toes. They might look nice, but they can be nasty! I’m telling you this from experience.

*Look for a comfortable heel. They can be high if you prefer that, but make sure that they have substance. Do you really want stilettos? *If you like thongs, be sure to break them in gradually. Your toes aren’t used to rubber/leather etc. rubbing between the toes. Let them get gradually used to it.
