Closet Organizing Tips

Posted by cheappumatrainers5219 on 22nd July 2008

When the crisp air of autumn begins to chill the mornings and evenings, I start to pull out my warm clothes and look forward to winter. By October, I am tired of my summer clothes and am ready for the other half of my wardrobe.

October is the perfect month to clear out your closet. As you put away your summer clothes (by moving them to the back of your closet, boxing them up, or putting them in another closet), take a few minutes to really look at each piece and evaluate it.

Here are some helpful questions to ask yourself when you start to organize your closet:

1. Does this piece fit well and flatter my figure?

Often we hold on to clothes in hopes that some day we will fit back into them. If you have had an item for more than two years and it still does not fit, you need to let it go. By the time it fits comfortably again, you will be ready for a new look.

2. Do I really like this piece?

We also hold on to many items that are “just okay” with the idea that someday they will look better on us. That never happens. Make room in your closet for clothes that you love.

3. Does this piece coordinate with other pieces in my wardrobe?

Sometimes we have “lone ranger” items that do not go with anything else. If you cannot wear it with something you currently own, it needs to go.

4. Does this piece need to be cleaned, altered, or mended?

All your clothes should be clean and in good condition. Torn or stained items should be taken care of in a timely manner. Sometimes the cost of cleaning or mending is greater than the item is really worth to you. In that case, let it go.

5. Does this piece reflect the image I want to portray?

As we move into different avenues in our lives, our clothes need to change as well. It is okay to say goodbye to perfectly good clothes that do not reflect who we are at the current moment. A few pieces that look great on you are better than a closet full of items that do not.

After you tackle your summer clothes, it is time to evaluate your winter wardrobe. Ask yourself the same questions. The change of seasons is a great time to reevaluate your wardrobe and assess what you need for the upcoming season.

Choosing Clothing For Horse Back Riding And Riding Tack

Posted by cheappumatrainers5219 on 21st July 2008

We all know your clothes don’t make you a better rider but they may make you feel good! Many expert riders wear jeans (unless you prefer sticky jodpurs), cotton shirts, woollen jumpers, windproof and waterproof jackets and smooth soled leather riding boots - thats all you need to train in. Practical comfortable clothes protect you from the extremes of weather. There’s no point spending a fortune on competition clothes before your ready to compete - You’re far better off investing your clothes money into tools, riding tack and training books and courses that advance both the horse and riders abilities, preparing you both before you enter the ring (or trail) - your horse will CERTAINLY appreciate you making the investment!!

Do you know why the Drizabone Coat is so legendary in Australia - 100’s of years ago stockmen had to drive their cattle on horseback to the market or different landholdings, which could take 2-3 days riding due to the distances involved and slow stock, during which fog and rain could fall at any time, the Drizabone rolls up compactly and protects the horse rider and saddle from rain. An Akubra hat also has a 2 fold purpose - it protects the riders head from the harsh Australian sun and any downpour of rain. When horse riding in the Alps this hat can help to keep the horse rider warm as the temperature can drop to 10C in summer and -4C in winter, before allowing for the wind chill factor.

A well fitting Western or English saddle is essential for your horse and it needs to be well padded - a felt pad is ideal - How can your horse move supplely and softly and do the moves you expect when they are being pinched or constricted by the saddle! A simple round ring, jointed snaffle bit is all that you need for training (The training will eliminate the need for bits used to control your horses behaviour!) - sweet iron is the best. Reins, halters and lead ropes will be discussed further in tools.

Should I practise in spurs? Spurs are a uniform requirement in advance competition. If you cannot ask your horse for a move or control your horse without spurs, then you’re not ready for advanced work as your horse has NO RESPECT for YOU and is refusing your leadership. Think back to your own learning, did you perform better when threatened with demands, anger and pain or when your teacher inspired you and encouraged you to learn cooperatively.

Imagine how great it feels to know your horse respects you enough to want to work with you and respond to your aids. This is covered in the http://www.SmartHorseAndRiderCoaching.com training e-book offered chapter “So how can we make our horse happy to do whatever we ask him to”.

Suzanne Garrard has a post graduate degree in education and has been working with and training horses for 15 years - including horses that when purchased lacked impulsion or were a problem horse. She is passionate about continual and further education for horse and rider advancement. If you are looking to advance your equine performance and horse back riding skills, and increase your understanding of the equine language, whilst building you and your horses comfort zones and your leadership with the horse, so you are both confident and happy then click on http://www.smarthorseandridercoaching.com

The Plus Size Clothing Nightmare

Posted by cheappumatrainers5219 on 21st July 2008

I’ve worn plus size clothing most of my adult life. And let me tell you, clothes shopping has really been an agravating experience to say the least. You go to the mall and visit the one store that carries sizes more than 1X. You browse the racks and find a nice pink blouse you’d really love to buy, and they DO have plus sizes, but YOUR SIZE PINK BLOUSE IS MISSING. ARRGH!

Or, you might find a pretty black bra that you’d love to have, but they are out of the 42DD. Pure frustration.

At first glance it looks like the big and beautiful store has a lot of items, but when you take into account that each item probably is displayed with 4-6 sizes, there really isn’t that much in one store. Even the big chain stores like Target, Walmart and K-Mart really have a limited supply of plus size clothing. And most of it isn’t very stylish.

And why do all other stores always put the women’s plus size clothing section right next to the Maternity section? I’m offended by that as a large woman, and I’d be offended by that as well if I were a pregnant woman. You have to make sure that you aren’t checking out the clothing that belongs in the maternity section.

Speaking of maternity wear, I know from personal experience that finding maternity clothes as a larger woman is murder! I seems that only the skinny girls get pregnant as far as the clothing manufacturers think. You have to find a special store that carries nothing but plus size maternity clothing, and lots of it.

To add to the frustration, they put the Petites section on the other side of the Women’s section. Come on…no big woman wants to shop next to all those perky little skinny girls.

It’s all so darn frustrating. But there is a solution. Shop online. More items, and more sizes, and total freedom to choose in your own home. An online store doesn’t have space restrictions and can display a thousand items with relative ease.

That’s easier said than done. Some online plus size women’s clothing stores carry a limited line. You have to visit many online shops to find what you want. It’s hard to find an online plus size fashion site that offers bigger size shirts, pants, suits, etc., from many designers and retail stores. An online plus size clothing store can pick clothing from many suppliers and designers, and make plus size fashions available at all price ranges. It can offer plus size lingerie, plus size boots, plus size coats and plus size swimwear. And it can stock a limitless selection of products, and sell them all in one place.

Sure, there are one or two large scale (excuse the pun) plus size shops online, if you can find them. Still, online shopping is definitely the way to go for us plus size women!

The Comfort Of Flannel Clothing

Posted by cheappumatrainers5219 on 19th July 2008

Do you own any clothes that are made of flannel? If you do not have any flannel shirts, outfits, or pajamas, you are certainly missing out! Flannel is so very comfortable, and it is a great addition to any wardrobe.

Flannel shirts usually come in plaid style. There are many different colors and designs to choose from, however. They are great to wear for a casual work day, and for an outing on a warm though not very hot day. Any style of flannel shirt will go with practically any style of jeans. Flannel is easy to wash and can be ironed for a more put together look.

Flannel feels really good on the skin. Unlike wool, it almost never feels itchy or dry. Anyone wearing flannel will have a warm and soft feeling on their body all day long. If you hug a person who is wearing flannel, you can feel the warmth and softness as well. It makes getting close to someone much more comfortable than silk, which is cold and slippery.

Flannel pajamas are the best sleepwear for the winter. The material keeps the heat sealed in close to the body. You are less likely to feel cold right away when you get out of bed if you have flannel pajamas on. You will stay warm throughout the night, and you won’t slip and slide under the covers like you would with silk pajamas on. This material is by far the best choice for winter pajamas.

You can honestly wear flannel shirts any time of the year. In the winter time, you can wear a flannel shirt under a pull-over sweater for added warmth. In the fall, you can wear a flannel shirt under a light jacket, since it is not that cold yet. In the spring, you can wear a flannel shirt over a tank top during a breezy but mild day. In the summer, you can carry your flannel shirt over your shoulder or around your waist, so you can put it on if you get chilly in an air-conditioned building.

There is plenty of comfort in flannel clothing. There is no reason why anyone should be without flannel in their wardrobe. It is easy to find styles that match your needs, and you can wear flannel anytime! It is one of the most comfortable fabrics available. Flannel is definitely a winning choice for everyone.

When Did Humans Start Wearing Clothes?

Posted by cheappumatrainers5219 on 16th July 2008

There are many schools of thought and belief about the origins of humans. Some purely religious, some purely scientific, some mix the two. Regardless of which school of thought, it seems obvious that the first humans on this earth lived in warm climates. I suppose there are those who will argue about this, but I am proceeding under the assumption that the first humans lived in a climate that was sufficiently warm to keep them alive without any kind of clothing.

Pursuing that thought can reveal the reasons humans began to wear clothing. For warmth and protection, especially when humans begin migrating to colder climates. Further down the line of human progress, the naked body became taboo and modesty came into the picture. It’s very easy to come up with some reasons for wearing clothes. But now ask the question, “When did humans begin wearing clothes?”

Not an earth-shattering question. Perhaps not a question many people would think very important (or possible) to get an answer to. But there are those who burn with the desire to get an answer to this question, believe it or not.

Groups of researchers have thought of possible ways to determine the approximate date of apparel wearing. One idea says this could be determined by analyzing the date of origin of human body lice. The reasoning is that since humans have sparse body hair, the only way human body lice could survive would be in clothing. Seems an awfully long stretch to me. What about lice jumping off an animal and chowing down on a human? But supposed serious research has been done under this premise.

So how to determine when body lice appeared on humans? Simple. Take a modern day louse and do a genetic analysis of it. One group has determined that the human body louse appeared roughly 107,000 years ago, thus humans began to wear clothing about the same time. But nothing is that simple, let alone the ancestral DNA of a louse, for yet another team of researchers did the same genetic analysis on the modern louse and determined that it appeared roughly 540,000 years ago. The two groups are still haggling about it.

This is all according to some articles I’ve read on the Internet. Of course, reading something on the Internet doesn’t make it so. It is hard to believe that scientists would take the trouble to invest effort, time and money on such a project. And just think of how many innocent body lice had to be sacrificed.

While I can’t verify all of this, as ludicrous as it seems it most certainly is possible that this research has happened. Especially if you consider these other areas of research, a mere handful of crazy research projects I found while surfing the ‘net:

  • Arm pit odor research.
  • Research to determine the relationship between beards and hierarchy.
  • Research to prove that familiar children’s nursery rhymes were written by aliens.

After reading those, the possibility of scientists hovering over a dead body louse and extracting its DNA to determine when humans began to wear clothing doesn’t seem so far fetched. But if this research did take place, I don’t mind saying I think it was a lousy idea.
