Authentic Designer Handbags and Purse Reviews

Shopping is always fun and when the same is accompanied with massive discounts, it works like icing on the cake. Have you been thinking of going for shopping? Well! Hang on as there are days of the year when online shopping portals give away massive discount offers to its customers. If your need is not that urgent then wait for the marked ‘shopping days’. Out of all the days, there are three days which are most popular amongst online shopaholics. These are E-day, Cyber Monday and Green Monday. These three come in different days of the year and happen to be most famous amongst customers owing to the fact that they have discounted day coupons available for these specific days. Let us throw light on these days individually and earmark the best day for shopping amongst the three.

Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday was launched few years back and happens to fall on the Monday after Black Friday. It happens to be one of those days of the year when cyber shopping portals give the best discount offers for commodities. Black Friday happens to be the first Friday after Thanksgiving in the US and Cyber Monday comes just after Black Friday. Basically, internet marketing agents were the ones who gave the name “Cyber Monday” and the sole motive was to increase internet sales. 2005 is usually marked as the year when Cyber Monday came into picture. Over the past few years since the term came into being, Cyber Monday has seen a growth of 77 percent in online shopping sales across various online shopping portals. The reason why Cyber Monday is earmarked as biggest of online shopping days is because of the revenues of online shopping portal sales which now run into billions on the Monday following Thanksgiving.

E-Day

The term E-Day came into being in 2006 when Coremetrics decided to have one more mega shopping day after Cyber Monday. E-day basically falls on the succeeding Monday of Cyber Monday. There used to be a time when E-Day was earmarked as the most prospective e-commerce day by Coremetrics but soon, Cyber Monday took the limelight leaving E-Day in the second position. As per the first reference of E-Day, Coremetrics termed that this day basically acted as a tool meant for internet marketing agents that helped them to make a prediction of the exact day when they should be targeting their e-campaigns. Even if E-Day falls below Cyber Monday, yet it still is being termed as one of the busiest shopping days.

Green Monday

Apart from E-Day and Cyber Monday, there is one more day which is well-revered as amongst the busiest shopping days of the year. This happens to be Green Monday and it falls on the second Monday of December month. Green Monday is the most popular e-shopping day of December and there are purchases amounting to billions of dollars on that day. Thus, Green Monday is usually known to stand in the second position after Cyber Monday and E-Day.

The popularity of these days has been increasing day by day as more and more customers prefer to shop online instead of heading over to malls. Thus, if you are waiting for a day when you can shell out less for more of your favourite products, then these are the ideal days for you.

Unlike black, white can be quite a tricky colour to wear. If you get it right, it can look stylish, summery and refreshing. If you get it wrong, it can look cheap and tacky – and add pounds to your frame.

If you want to get the look right, follow my ten simple rules of wearing white…

 

• Don’t wear white to a wedding

If you’re going to a wedding you don’t want to upstage the bride in her beautiful white gown. Stay clear of white in this case.

• Wear the right underwear

There’s nothing worse than spotting someone’s colourful or patterned underwear through their white top or trousers. Choose skin-coloured pieces that won’t show through the fabric.

• Choose the right shoes

When you’re wearing white, you need to avoid any shoes that are too heavy or clunky, as they’ll look weird and ruin the feel of the outfit. Instead, go for sandals, ballet pumps or stylish stilettoes, rather than anything with a wedge or huge heel.

• Use your makeup to add colour

Teaming white with a bold colour can be difficult and look a bit tacky. Instead, choose tonal colours like beige or camel for your outfit and add a pop of colour with your lipstick or eye shadow. Coloured mascara is even making a comeback.

• White jeans

One of the easiest ways to wear white is with a pair of white jeans. They pretty much go with anything and as long as you don’t get them dirty, they’ll always look good! Team them with a casual T-shirt and plimsoles.

• Wear a petticoat

See-through white dresses are a definite no-no. When you buy a dress, put it on in front of a light so you can check for any potential embarrassment. If it’s even the tiniest bit see-through, wear a petticoat.

• Try wide-leg trousers

White isn’t nearly as flattering as black, so unless you’re wearing jeans, choose wide-legged trousers. They’re much more flattering and will skim over your hips and thighs, rather than clinging to them and making you look bigger than you actually are.

• Mix textures

If you’re going for an all-white outfit, play around with textures a bit to add interest and keep it fresh. An all-linen or linen-and-cotton outfit will juts look drab and too airy-fairy, so consider adding some laser-cut leather, faux fur or denim in there as well to create volume and excitement.

• Avoid fake tan

The last thing you need when you’ve bought a gorgeous new white outfit is massive fake tan marks all over the sleeves and collar. If you’re going to wear white, lay off the fake tan. White will also make the orange colour in the tan even more prominent, so chances are  you’ll look more like a piece of fruit than a beautifully bronzed goddess.

• Choose gold jewellery

 

Silver jewellery will get lost among white clothing, so always choose gold and it’ll stand out and sparkle against such a pale background.

So there you have it – now there’s no excuse for ever getting it wrong when you want to wear white.
