Best Strapless Bras for Dancers

Shopping for a strapless bra is quite tricky compared to buying any other clothing item. You will often find yourself cursing out the strapless bra for falling off, digging into the ribs, and for unexplainable irritation when you finally get to wear it. Strapless bras can cause problems. They tend to go against the force of gravity with no straps to hold the breasts. Plus, most of us can relate to reaching for the bathroom to get the bra up, and it’s so annoying.

However, brands listen when women complain. Currently, designers have come up with ideal strapless bras with some advanced technical features, superior fabric, and expanded bra sizes offering ultimate support to all breast types. These bras stay put and are also super comfortable. Whether you love versatile designs, you can go for the ones with removable straps, bandeaus, or push up strapless bras.

You should also look for a bra with a thicker band around the rib cage with three-four hook closures for maximum comfort. A narrow band around the back and …

Marpac Lifesounds 440 Review

This Marpac Lifesounds 440 has a nice design, and looks good. It is intended for use in baby and toddler rooms, for naps and during the night. The unit is small and can be placed close to a bed, on a night-table, quite easily. In fact, we could argue that it’s the best portable white noise machine.

Most parents, at some time or another, struggle to ensure there is sufficient quiet in the house for a youngster to sleep. Whether it is brothers or sisters, or the parents themselves, waking a sleeping youngster is frustrating. To combat this, place the sound machine inside the room of the infant, and let it cancel out noise, and play more relaxing sounds. This should help create a better sleeping environment, and allow the little one to sleep better and longer.

The Marpac Lifesounds Is Great For Filling Rooms

The unit is easy to operate, and has good volume controls, and more importantly, there is no crackling or other background noise from the machine itself when playing on a high volume. To be used effectively, in a youngsters room (who are notoriously light sleepers, and wake at any noise) it needs to play …

Guide to Choosing a Toddler Bed

If it’s time to move your baby into a “big girl’s bed” but she’s hardly a “big girl,” a toddler bed is the way to go. These pint-size beds are perfect for small children. They’re a great transitional bed between the crib and a twin or full-sized bed. Toddler beds are designed to sit close to the floor so it’s easy for short legs to climb in and out of them. Many toddler beds come equipped with built-in side rails for added safety.

Styles

Imagine any style bed, from an elegant metal one with a tall headboard and decorative spindles, to a traditional sleigh bed and chances are there is a mini-version. Toddler beds are available in a variety of styles and finishes. Most are manufactured of metal, wood or plastic. The best toddler beds feature favorite cartoon or storybook characters to reflect your child’s interests.

Features

Although most toddler beds are basically the same, there are some important features to look for and consider before buying one. Does the bed have built-in side rails? Many beds do offer this safety feature, while others require an additional side rail purchase. Look for beds that are certified by the Juvenile Products …

Top 10 Weight Loss Tips: Physical Activity and Healthy Eating Habits

Information on how to lose weight is abundant. However, weight loss advice is often conflicting and can be overwhelming. While losing weight can be difficult, it doesn’t have to be when these simple tips are followed.

Get Moving

It’s a good idea to engage in a regularly scheduled workout to burn calories, whether at home or at the gym, but even taking extra steps each day can lead to weight loss. Wearing a pedometer is a good way to gauge where you are now in terms of steps per day and to help set a goal. Those looking to lose weight should aim for at least 10,000 steps per day. Easy ways to get in more steps per day is to:

  • Take steps instead of an elevator
  • Park far away from a store entrance
  • Vacuum daily instead of every other day
  • When putting away laundry, walk each piece of clothing to the closet or drawer instead of carrying many pieces at once

Eat Healthy

It’s important when trying to lose weight to make healthier food choices. Swap out white bread for whole grain, use olive oil to cook with instead of lard or butter, skim fat off the top of …

How to Calculate BMI for Female

You can know your overall health by assessing aspects in your body such as body weight, fat percentage, muscle mass, sugar level, body mass index (BMI) and so on. You should concentrate a bit on your BMI, know what it is, how it is calculated and what level of BMI is healthy. When you want to calculate BMI for females, you simply need to follow the same steps as BMI calculation for men is done—determining some numbers and use of an equation.
