Blake Lively And Her Amazing Fashion Sense

Everyone knows the TV actress Blake Lively for her role as Serena van der Woodsen in hit series, "Gossip Girl" as one of the most amazing female fashion icons today. Wherever she goes, whatever she puts on demands attention. But what most people do not know is that Blake Lively does not hire a stylist. Every single thing she wear are her own choice, and surprisingly, her fashion sense tops most of the celebrities out there with some of the best hands as their stylist. This simply proves that this 24 year old actress has her own amazing sense of fashion.

In 2011, Elle magazine awarded Blake with the Elle magazine's 2011 Personal Style Awards to further prove that indeed, she knows her fashion well. They awarded her simply because of the fact that she does not employ a stylist, and everything is self-made. This further improves Blake Lively's reputation in the fashion industry. The best part about Blake and the way she style herself is that she does not go overboard with what she wears. Even the simplest mix and match makes her look like a fashion Goddess. Besides Elle magazine, Blake was also honored for her fashion sense by fashion giant Chanel.

5 Tips for Organizing Your Baby Photos

Anyone who has had a baby knows how easy it is to get inundated with photographs of their little one. With a baby in the house, there are numerous opportunities to snap a picture. This can drastically increase the number of photograph files one has on their computer or other device. There are many ways that these photographs can be organized. Following are five tips for organizing your baby photos that can be accomplished without a lot of stress and confusion.

1. Removing Excess or Low Quality Photographs

One of the first steps that a person should take after they have photographed an event or gathering for their little one, is going though the pictures and discarding any unneeded pictures. Many times there are many pictures taken of the same scene and this can be an unnecessary waste of space on one’s computer or other storage device. In addition, there are often many pictures that just are not good quality pictures. This is especially true with babies. Due to their unpredictable natures, many times a parent will get shots that are less than ideal because of an unexpected movement by the child. By taking the time to delete these unneeded pictures one can free up space on their storage device and eliminate some of the extra pictures they have in their collection.

2. Renaming Photograph Files

It can also be of great benefit to take some time to name the individual pictures after they are imported from one’s camera. In most cases, cameras will import pictures and name the files with numbers which do not really explain what is in the picture. If one takes the time to rename the pictures with a filename that actually describes what the photo is of or even the date it was taken, this can be more effective when one is trying to locate a specific picture.

3. Filing Photographs

Another way one can organize their pictures is by grouping them on their computer into files. There are many ways this can be done. One of the most efficient and easiest ways can be grouping photographs by date. This can be especially beneficial when chronicling events that occur every year, such as holidays and birthdays. One can easily start a new folder each year that contains subfolders for different months, dates or events. This can enable one to sort pictures into individual files so they can be easily found when needed.

What I Would Do If I Had 1 Million Pesos

Have you ever asked yourself what would you do with a large sum of money, say Php1 Million?  Do you know how you would use or spend that big of an amount?  Would you indulge in all the pleasures of life, like shopping or traveling to places, or would you think carefully and use the money wisely?

Through our family business and my plans of learning about investing in the coming year, I am determined and committed to earn my first Php1Million before year end of 2012.  I've learned that in order for you to get what you want, like earning a huge amount of money, aside from being determined and committed to get it, is that you have to know exactly how you would use it, and to use it not just for selfish gain but for helping and sharing it with others, too.  So what are the exact things I would do should I earn my first million by next year?
