Us secretary of state Hillary Clinton who is 65 years old now has always kept her own distinctive fashion sense by wearing exaggerated sunglasses, pants. Na matter how strongly questioned, she still persists in her old ways.

In a recent foreign ministers affair of the group of twenty, other attendance all wear white shirt while Hillary wear a yellow-green coat, which forced her to sit in a position that is nearest to the center. But for Hillary, it is just a trifle thing. She has been criticized more in dressing problem than political issues for a long time.

In fact, at an age of young when on campus of Wells Lee University in Massachusetts, Hillary had left many weird pictures such as wearing shiny gold sleeveless dress and coke bottle glasses. Though someone said she looked like Angelina Julie that time, they will add of course not a pretty Angelina Julie.

She became US first lady in January, 1993. She wore a dark red plaid skirt when turned up on her husband Bill Clinton’s presidential inauguration, which made her quite lively compared with the president’s solemn black suit. And what’s worse, the first day she even wore a dark blue small hat with round edge. She said she couldn’t forget that day and that suits even years later when she thought of it, she still couldn’t help shivering.

During the time when she was first lady, she was stable in her dressing style for a time. She always wore famous great brands which are attractive and suitable. She would choose a design team made of all American. She would wear Oscar de la Renta evening dresses on momentous occasions and change for tight evening dresses to dinners. In the daytime, she liked knitted sweater and some colorful skirt suits of less known brands.

After she entered politics, more than one picture that record her bad taste in dressing became her opponent’s attack against her. John Robinson, a competitor for New York senator of the Republican Party once said to the New York Daily News in 2007 that have you ever seen her photos before, I wonder why Bill will marry her. When asked about these photos, Hillary just smiled simply and said she wanted to destroy them.

After leaving the White House, Hillary said she was in her worst dress when she put herself into garish dress. Then she changed her dress theme into a series of tapered pants and had her hair cut short. Some public maintained she wanted to testified something or she worried her female character would affect her official career. But her changes were not shared by many.

When she became secretary of state, she did not get rid of being pointed in dressing. Some typical dressing was the orange suits she wore when visiting Barbados and the braid white when visiting Burma.
Maybe Hillary did once wear many wrong clothes, but she did one thing right, that is facing scoff and criticism with a self-deprecating attitude rather than strict diplomatic language and a hard line.

A pretty team of bridesmaid can not only upgrade the brides’ aura, but also construct strong atmosphere of wedding. If you want to be a most fashion and pretty bridesmaid, you have to learn a lesson about how to dress up.

To be first, the color of bridesmaid dress should be in accord with the wedding theme color. If you have ever watched the movie 27 sets of garments you will know that it completely counters the bridesmaid’s image of monotonous pink dress in tradition.

27 Dresses

The bone ash level bridesmaid’s 27 appearances in the wedding are all striking. Her experience tells us that bridesmaid dress may not be limited to sweet type or some certain color, which means as long as the dress is simple and temperamental enough to be in line with the positioning of the wedding; you can undoubtedly to be a beautiful bridesmaid.

There is an enormous choice for bridesmaid dress except for some taboo color such as black and red. But you had better choose one according to the wedding color. For instance, if you are going to a popular lavender theme wedding, a pale purple bridesmaid can be pretty and notable. But if you are in a greenish white theme wedding, it will draw attention to wear a light green dress. While a crowd of bridesmaid with light blue dress will add some vision score to a blue theme wedding.

In a word, it would be better that the bridesmaid dress and the wedding theme are of the same color. If there is no theme color, champagne will be the first color to choose which will not go wrong absolutely. Please avoid such bright colors as rose and flash gold, for it will either destroy the elegant and romantic atmosphere or upstage the bride.

Secondly, it is better to unify the dress in order to build a bridesmaid team that is harmonious visually, otherwise it will be disordered. You can adhere to three principles below: different types with same color and material; different colors with same type or same color and type.

Last but not the least; bridesmaid dresses should be simple enough to make you convenient. Generally speaking, the two major characters of bridesmaid dress are short and simple. The most suitable length of bridesmaid is above the knee. The golden length guarantees the bridesmaid’s convenient action and makes them more lively and younger. What’s more, the bridesmaid dress should be as dignified as possible. So it is wise to choose material such as satin, chiffon, organza.

Due to the simplicity of the dress, if you want to be beautiful, you should pay more attention to the details. For example, a satin girdle can make you exceedingly fascinating and charming, and bowknot and flower are elements which often used in bridesmaid dress. But you should note that one element is enough, too many will be garish.

The cheeky twist on the annual rite-of-passage is set to be a Brideszillas-style cringefest for those left to be dressed by their less than fashionable folks, while turning the spotlight on the current trends in this booming $3 billion events business.

Filming is currently underway for the fly-on-the-wall series, to air in 2013, designed to test the family bond like never before.

Seven’s head of production, Brad Lyons said: “The school formal is rapidly becoming the biggest day in a teenager’s life, so the reactions when we tell them their parents are in control have been priceless.”

Created along the lines of reality series, Don’t Tell The Bride (where the groom is in charge of organising the big day), parents hijack their daughter’s formal, deciding on everything from her dress to her date.

Styling up to promote the production, Home & Away stars Samara Weaving and Rhiannon Fish, both remember their formal and fashion choices fondly.

“I went to a few,” Weaving revealed, of her 2009 graduation. “It was our mission to go to as many formals as you could as there were only a few schools around (in Canberra).”

For the 20-year-old TV favourite, it was her first taste of red carpet glamour shared with her best friends instead of industry peers.

“I hadn’t been to the Logies at that point, so this was a first glimpse at that sort of glamour.”

Her full formal schedule meant four frocks, including the $150 black maxi dress she wore to her own school’s event, as well as a red mini and “rocking a gold number.”

Fish also kept her budget conservative but if she had her time again would change one thing: her date for the big occasion, new rocker boyfriend Reece Mastin.

“If I could go back in time and take him I certainly would. He’s had several offers to go to other girls’ (fans) formals and a few marriage proposals too, so he does okay,” she laughed.

You have probably heard about “Homecoming” in American TV shows or films. It is a traditional activity held in American high schools and colleges in September to October which can date back to the early 20th century. What currently perceived by the public about homecoming may be the prom, at which the King and the Queen will be chose. You will be asked on Homecoming that who you will go with. Still there are a lot of people who don’t know what is Homecoming. Its meaning lies in its name, which some people go back to their schools and celebrate. It will be traditionally held at a weekend in autumn when alumni gather in crowds and groups and go back. Even though many alumni will come back, most of the activities which aim to foster a sense of unity among them are planned and organized by students at school.
Usually, the celebrations last a week and it features all sorts of fun activities such as dress up days, a parade, a homecoming dance, and of course, the big football game.
The most popular activity must be campaigning for Homecoming King and Queen which is more general in high school than in college. Before the Homecoming weekend, the King and Queen will be nominated by voting. There is no unified standard to be the King or Queen, instead, it like more a popular election. But students will usually nominate those that are involved in school activities, have good grades, and girls that are pretty and boys that are handsome. The result will be published during the football game.
Another traditional activity is Spirit Week which falls during the week before Homecoming. There is different dress theme everyday. For example, on Monday, all the students wear in black. Tuesday they will wear clothes of fifty or sixty’s. But Wednesday they will change for Indian’s clothes. Some time they will have “Dress as a Famous Person Day” and all around school you saw people dressed as Lady Gaga, Harry Potter, and many more. You can also see some teacher dress up like Albert Einstein. In a word, they will dress up according to the unified requirements to support their school.
Besides, prom is also a big event during the Homecoming which will be relatively more formal in high school. All the students dress up and attend with their dance partner. Some girls even put on beautiful prom dress to attract more attention. What’s more important, all of the students in the school will take part in the prom, and songs played in the prom will be lyrical and romantic. As the school is too large to hold just one prom, so some fraternity will host all kinds of informal dance or party.
The mentioned interesting activities are most common, but there are still many other activity varies from different schools such as bonfire party, student competition and performance. In fact, one of the good things to attend the Homecoming is you will be proud of your school when taking part in so many traditional activities.
