Dress for Luck on 2010

-
According to feng shui experts, the lucky colors for 2010 are blue and light yellow.  Blue symbolizes water while light yellow symbolizes peace.
In the color spectrum, blue and yellow are primary colors and if you mix them together you will have green.  Green is the color of money and life.  Having this analogy, aren't you going to try your luck wearing any of the two colors or both at the same time?

Here are some blue and yellow stuffs you might want to try.




JACKET 
 Keep yourself warm in these classic jackets.  If you want to hide bulges, jackets are the sure way to wear but be careful with the cut and fit.  If you can cross your arms comfortably while wearing a jacket, it is the right fit for you. 



Navy blue Anthropologie Letizia Cardigan $118.  This will cinch your waist, minimize your hips and elongate your neck.


 

Signature Stretch Sateen Collection:Short-Sleeve Jacket $21.99 at Spiegel. Wear this with a plain white top and jeans and you are ready to go. 



DRESS 
Dresses should never be boring and should move with you.  Try these printed dresses that are both good for day or night events.

World Invasion: Battle Los Angeles

I went to the mall to see World Invasion: Battle Los Angeles earlier this day. It is a story about, probably, man's greatest battle with aliens set in Los Angeles. It is not the best movie to watch with your family but if you want something to scare yourself even more after Japan's devastating battle with nature, this is the best movie for you. It is a feel good movie in the end since the marines, led by Aaron Eckhart, found a way to end the alien invasion. I will not spill the beans, though. My rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Yes, I planned about changing my career.  I am already growing tired of bureaucracy, excessive politicking, communistic type of management.  I never knew that it is more rampant in private offices than in government agencies.  I am actually wondering how I get to live by it for almost 4 years now.  The last quarter of 2009, I already decided it is time to go and look for a better environment to use and hone my skills.   I extended my stay as requested by my dear friends at work.  Actually, it is just the company of friends that made it hard for me to deny their request of me staying for a little while.  The little while went on for months and  I could not believe that it is the last quarter already and I am still living the life and working the work. Changing career is still in my plans, I am actually getting ready for it.  If you are following this challenge, I already mentioned it in my previous entries.   ...
