Must-Have Basic Wardrobe Pieces for Any Woman!
The 10 Essential Elements:
1 -Basic Black Dress - The basic black dress has been around for a long time. It is often called the "Little Black Dress", and it's true that shorter skirts on the basic black dress, when they hit you in the right place, can be more flattering than a long black dress.
2 -Trench Coat - The trench coat is one of the pieces that is both classic and currently a hot fashion item. Most any store sells this piece now. It is great for fall and you can pick it up in a wide range of lengths.
3 -Dress Pants - Although it doesn't say black, this is probably what you want to look for. Black is flattering on all figures and goes with everything.
4 -Classic Shirt - The white shirt is a definite classic. But it can also come in many different styles to make it look trendy and not dated or like a man's piece of clothing. Find one that accentuates your best attributes and minimizes trouble spots. For example, if you have wide shoulders, stay away from large collars.
5 -Jeans - Everyone has a pair of jeans, but does everyone have a pair of jeans that make them look great? The wider leg, low-rise jean style has been popular (and still is) but a narrower leg is coming back along with a higher waist, which eliminates the unflattering "muffin top" look.
6 -Any Occasion Top - Find something you look great in that can look respectable under a jacket but bring on the fun after hours.
7 -Skirt - If you need dress pants then you also need a skirt. A skirt is womanly and can be flirty or businesslike. Nowadays women do not wear many skirts or dresses, which makes a lot of them fall into a rut of dressing sloppily or like men.
8 -Day Dress - Women also are not wearing as many dresses anymore. It was certainly liberating to go from the '50s when women wore dresses every day to wearing more practical pants for gardening, exercising, and so forth. But the dress does not have to be abandoned altogether. They can be very flattering, and there is nothing wrong with "dressing up" for daytime.
9 -Jacket - A jacket does not have to be masculine. Find one with a proper, fitted shape. Women's jackets should follow the silhouette of a woman's body and accent the hourglass curve at her waist. It is also a perfect piece to put with the skirt or dress pants, and white shirt. Or make it casual with a pair of jeans.
10 -Sweatsuit Alternative - As mentioned before, women wear fewer skirts and dresses these days. But some women have taken casual to the extreme and spend days on end in sweatsuits. It is possible to be casual and comfortable without looking like a slob. Find a comfortable material (that's why this doesn't say jeans again – denim is not as comfortable as a nice soft cotton) that you would want to wear every day. It could be khakis, cords, a cotton dress, or much more.

The Ten Elements are mostly classic pieces, but what's important is whether they fit you properly, are not outdated, and bring out your best features.
1 -Basic Black Dress - The basic black dress has been around for a long time. It is often called the "Little Black Dress", and it's true that shorter skirts on the basic black dress, when they hit you in the right place, can be more flattering than a long black dress.

A história - The Gingerbread Man!
Para contar aos filhos, sobrinhos, afilhados...
Era uma vez…
Uma velha senhora e seu velho marido estavam com fome. Então a velhinha decidiu fazer um biscoito de gengibre, em formato de boneco e colocou no fonro, para assar. Quando ela abriu o forno, para tirar o biscoito, o gingerbread man pulou da fôrma e saiu correndo pela janela, que estava aberta. A velha senhora e seu marido gritaram: “Pare! Pare! Estamos com fome e vamos comê-lo!” E o gingerbread man respondeu: “Corra! Corra! Corra o mais rápido que puder! Você não pode me pegar! Eu sou o gingerbread man!”
Enquanto corria, o gingerbread man encontrou um porco que disse: “Pare! Pare! Eu quero comer você!” E o gingerbread man respondeu: “Corra! Corra! Corra o mais rápido que puder! Você não pode me pegar! Eu sou o gingerbread man!”
Mais à frente, o gingerbread man encontrou uma vaca faminta, que também queria comê-lo. E ele repetiu: “Corra! Corra! Corra o mais rápido que puder! Você não pode me pegar! Eu sou o gingerbread man!”E todos corriam atrás do gingerbread man: a velhinha, o marido da velhinha, o porco e a vaca, mas ninguém conseguia alcançá-lo.
E então um cavalo também viu o gingerbread man e disse: “Pare, homenzinho! Eu quero comê-lo!” E o gingerbread man falou mais uma vez: “Corra! Corra! Corra o mais rápido que puder! Você não pode me pegar! Eu sou o gingerbread man!”Então o cavalo também começou a correr atrás do gingerbread man. O pior é que o gingerbread man percebeu que estava correndo em direção ao rio. Ele pensou: “Oh, não! O rio! Agora eles vão conseguir me pegar! Como eu vou conseguir atravessar o rio?” Foi nesta hora que uma esperta raposa saiu de trás da árvore e disse: “Eu posso ajudar você a atravessar o rio. Pule no meu rabo e eu nado até o outro lado.”Gingerbread man, desconfiado, perguntou à raposa: “Mas você não vai querer me comer?” E ela respondeu; “Claro que não! Eu só estou tentando ajudar!” O gingerbread acreditou na raposa e pulou no seu rabo. Mas a raposa disse: “Você é muito pesado. Pule nas minhas costas, para eu poder nadar.” E ele pulou. Quando estavam no meio do rio, a raposa disse: “Você é muito pesado. Pule no meu focinho!” E o gingerbread man pulou no focinho da raposa.Quando chegar à outra margem, a raposa jogou o gingerbread man para o alto, com a intenção de agarrá-lo com a boca, para poder matar a sua fome. Mas o gingerbread man era mais esperto do que a raposa e saiu correndo, dizendo: “Corra! Corra! Corra o mais rápido que puder! Você não pode me pegar! Eu sou o gingerbread man!” Mas a raposa escorreu na margem do rio, caiu na água e foi levada pela correnteza. E assim, desde esse dia, o gingerbread man corre por aí, sem que ninguém consiga pegá-lo.
Fim!
Feliz Natal! Merry Christmas! Feliz Navidad! Joyeux Noël! Frohe Weihnachten!
