Jamie Carragher is concerned that Tottenham’s name might already be on the Champions League trophy after Ajax “were unfortunate” not to beat them in the semi-finals.

Carragher’s former club Liverpool reached the final with an unbelievable comeback victory over Barcelona in the semis and they will play Mauricio Pochettino’s side in the Madrid finale on June 1.

And, despite Liverpool‘s sensational semi-final win, Carragher admit he is “massively nervous” of facing Tottenham in the final.

“I’ve watched Tottenham in the two semi finals a lot in the role that I have at Sky and if Liverpool play well, they’ll win,” Carragher told the Anfield Wrap.

“I’m convinced of that really.

“I’m not going into it massively nervous of the opposition.

“I actually think Ajax were much better than Tottenham over the two legs and were unfortunate not to get through.

“My only worry is, are Tottenham going to do a Liverpool 2005, a Chelsea 2012 at Bayern Munich, where they’re not a great team or in great form but they just find a way and things are happening for them.

“It could be that special year for them, it could be.

“But you could argue what happened with us and Barcelona we’re in the same sort of boat.”

Club legend Sir Alex Ferguson feels ‘hurt’ after being ‘sidelined’ by Manchester United, according to reports.

The Scotsman won 13 Premier League titles, five FA Cups, four League Cups and two Champions Leagues in his 27 years as manager at Old Trafford.

He will be back in the dugout this weekend in a Treble Reunion match to mark 20 years since the club won their historic treble under Ferguson’s management.

Despite that, the Daily Mail claims that the occasion will be ‘tinged with sadness and a sense of hurt’ as United ‘no longer calls on his counsel.’

The report continues by saying that while ‘holding nothing against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’ Ferguson thinks the Red Devils should get ‘the very best available’ and that man is Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Since leaving in 2013, Ferguson has ‘increasingly felt isolated and out of touch’ with the club, as ‘the powerbrokers’ at United ‘never pick up the phone’ to him.

A close confidant from the League Managers’ Association told the Daily Mail: “Sir Alex feels conflicted. He can see the irony that he still spends time thinking about United when he’s retired. But he loves the club and does feel a bit hurt that his opinion is never sought.

“He knows he’s not in charge any more but it would still be nice for him to be asked.”

The report adds that Solskjaer and Ferguson ‘are not as close as the image’ and that the Norwegian ‘won’t seek him out to ask for guidance about players or philosophy.’

 

1. Buying cheap clothes hurts your wallet

No matter how cheap an item is, it will always end up hurting your wallet simply because you buy so many of these. I know we all do this. We see the words “Sale, 50% off, BOGO, Closeout Sale, etc.” and we automatically rush into that store and get our hands on as many clothes and accessories as we can, without realizing that you’ve eventually hoarded probably about $200 worth of “cheap on sale clothes”. Then you come home with all these clothes that you’re probably never going to wear and your wallet is as empty as that water you drank from shopping too much!

2. Buying cheap clothes takes up space in your closet

Buying a ton of clothes just because they’re cheap will end up taking space in your closet (or your drawers). Those clothes have to be placed somewhere! Not everyone can have that Kim Kardashian Walk In Closet. If you do then props to you! But if you’re like any other normal lady, then odds are, you’re the type to put Winter clothes away in boxes to make room for Spring. So don’t overwhelm your closet with so much clothing that you might not even wear. 50% of the time, if your closet is too stuffed, it’s going to give you a hard time to find anything to wear and it can also ruin the beautiful and fragile pieces of clothing you own.  

3. Buying cheap clothes makes more clutter

Buying cheap clothes makes more clutter because overtime you will hoard more and more that just ends up getting stuck in your closet or drawers. Although you may think “Oh my gosh! It’s only $2!” you’re going to end up buying 10 of those same $2 shirts and just wear 2 out of the 10.

4. Buying cheap clothes DOES NOT make you more stylish or attractive

It really doesn’t ladies! It simply gives you a reason to believe you’re being more stylish when you can really look stylish and attractive without buying more clothing for less money! Instead of buying more and more cheap clothes, invest in a piece of clothing that you know you need, is trendy, has good quality, and has a good fit on you. It may be more pricey, but money don’t lie, right? Sometimes quality is better than quantity.

5. Buying cheap clothes is NOT a long-term solution

It simply feeds your habit of feeling instantly gratified. Kind of like impulse buying – when you just buy whatever you see with no particular reason. Most of the time, cheap clothes don’t last as long either. Their materials, no matter how you take care of them, will get ruined because their quality is not as great. This goes along with finding something of better quality and also finding that one special clothing that you can mix and match all season long.

6. Buying cheap clothes keeps you from experiencing once in a lifetime opportunities

If you look forward to going to the mall on that one weekend you have off, then that’s saying a lot! A clothing-buying habit can cost upwards of thousands a year or more, equivalent to a week long vacation to another country. So, instead of making your goal be waking up early on Saturday to head to the mall for their Early Bird Specials, set a goal that you can keep in your memories for the long run. Remember, every dollar you spend buying more and more pieces of clothing can sum up to a trip to Hawaii.

7. Buying cheap clothes keeps you from building relationships with the people you love

Spending time at the mall looking at clothes, waiting in lines, and travel time can cost you a first date with your future husband or wife. Even if you do decide to go to the mall with someone you like or someone you want to get to know, shopping will always third wheel. Use the free time you have to go to the movies, hang out with friends, or go grocery shopping for a dinner date at home. Moments like these are definitely not worth losing over one pair of jeans!

8. Buying cheap clothes keeps you from making a meaningful contribution to society

 

Buying cheap clothes means going to the mall or clothing stores to shop around for things to buy. While doing this, you’re missing out on the opportunity to make a difference in society and the world. Instead of shopping around, consuming and buying things you probably don’t need, try volunteering at your nearest shelter or community. Or even just take a look at your closet, identify the things you don’t need, and donate/sell them off to Goodwill or Plato’s Closet. Donating or volunteering will help so much more than if you were to buy things you don’t really need.

9. Buying cheap clothes is NOT sustainable

Think about it. If you were to just keep buying clothes, you won’t be gaining anything but artificial happiness. You’re using up your money, time, and resources to feed an unhealthy habit. Not to mention, consuming in this way will lead to businesses and companies producing even more sales and clothing for you to buy.

10. Buying cheap clothes hurts the environment

Nowadays, you will see people at the mall or at stores with bags filled with clothing. Whether you’re trying to stay up to trend or you’re just stress shopping, buying more and more clothes won’t just hurt your financial status, but it will also hurt the environment. Odds are these cheap clothes you keep consuming will only last you a couple months, a year at the most, and will eventually end up in the trash. “Fast Fashion” as they call it is equivalent to fast food except its for clothing. Meaning, the fashion industry keeps supplying affordable apparels to keep up with the our demand of what magazines and fashion want us to have or what we “must have.” This is what fuels us to buy more of what we want rather than what we need. Little do we know, that shirt that was so in last Summer is no longer needed for this Summer because of the “new trend” and is now probably in the landfill partly causing pollution. So, the next time you feel like taking a break because of all of the plastic or paper bags you’re carrying filled with clothes, don’t even think of the clothes because just the bags that’s holding them is made from the environment you live in.

11. Buying cheap clothes hurts the workers who make them

The fashion industry has a knack for making us feel a certain way about how we should look like and what we need to have in our lives to attain such unrealistic goals. Most of these are the types of clothes that they say are essential in our lives. We as humans don’t even realize how these clothes came to be. The “must have” trends don’t make themselves, these are real people who are behind the scenes laboring for hours and hours, some even making less than minimum wage, just to supply us with our demand for clothing. No matter how cheap a piece of clothing may be, the amount of labor an employee in the clothing industry puts in shouldn’t be taken lightly. Yes, you may also think, without us buying all these clothes, these workers wouldn’t even be working. That in its entirety is true, but it’s the same as asking yourselves, without us there wouldn’t be a need for leaders or presidents. Meaning, it’s something that has to be there because it’s a need that we just take for granted. Think about it, next time you have the urge of buying more and more cheap clothes, take a break and look at what else you need that’s more beneficial than adding another thing to your closet.

 

Graduation day! What a time of celebration. You’ve finished either four years of high school or four years of college/university, and now you’re celebrating it with a ceremony. Now you’re wondering… what should I wear?

Many people won’t know what to wear for this special occasion, because it’s not every day that you graduate. And you want it to be special and perfect. Some people might go all out with a dress that looks like it should be worn to prom, and others might skimp out by just wearing jeans and a casual t-shirt. But these are all wrong!

Appropriate Graduation Attire: How to Dress for a Graduation Ceremony When You’re the One Graduating (Women’s Guide)

Here is how to dress for a graduation ceremony when you’re the one graduating:

1.Don’t wear long floor-length ‘prom’ dresses under your gown

Your graduation gown will most likely not be touching the floor, so make sure your dress doesn’t touch the floor as well. You will be doing a lot of walking in the graduation stadium and also across the stage. If you wear a long dress, you might trip on it or have a hard time keeping it up since you will have to grab your diploma with one hand and shake hands with the administrators with your other hand – leaving you to drag your dress across the floor and maybe even down some steps. So make sure you don’t wear a floor-length dress!

2. Consider your school dress code… if you want

Some schools might still enforce a dress code during graduation ceremonies. If so, follow it so you won’t get in trouble. However, considering that you’ll have your gown on top of your dress the whole time, you won’t have to worry about wearing something backless or a dress with no sleeves. The only time you’ll be taking off your gown is after the ceremony. Which brings us to the next point:

3. Wear something you’re confident and are comfortable in for after-graduation parties/events

You may be going out to dinner (or lunch), or another party after the ceremony. If this is the case, wear something you’re comfortable and confident in when you take off your gown.

4. Wear a dress with pockets!

During the ceremony, you won’t be able to bring a purse or wallet with you, but you will need to bring your phone with you to text or call your family/friends after the ceremony! It will be hectic after the ceremony, and you will need to find your family/friends. For this reason, try finding a dress with pockets so you can put your phone in it for after the ceremony.

5. Dress appropriately for the weather

If it’s winter, wear something warmer – a thicker dress with sleeves. If it’s summer or spring, wear something cooler – backless or sleeveless dress.

6. Consider wearing accessories to add flair

A necklace, bracelet, or earrings. During the ceremony, people will only be seeing your gown, so consider wearing something on the outside that people will be able to see.

7. Do your hair differently

Consider doing your hair in a different way than you normally would; curling if it’s usually straight, or straightening if it’s usually curled. Here’s a tutorial on curling your hair for graduation and a tutorial for straightening your hair here. Also, check out Lulus’ graduation cap hair tutorial.

8. Do your makeup

Even if you’re not a big makeup person, you can still do it in a way that enhances your facial features. You can also do it in a simple way that shows you’re not even wearing makeup! (Click here for a no makeup makeup look tutorial.)

9. Wear formal shoes you’re comfortable with

Since you will be walking across the stage and most likely in a big stadium, you’ll need to wear shoes you’re comfortable with and also shoes that match your outfit. If you’re comfortable with heels, go ahead and wear them. If not, flats will also suffice. But make sure they’re formal, and not sneakers or gym shoes or anything.

Your wedding is without a doubt one of the most important days of your life. It will also be one of the most exciting. However, this is not to say that the lead up to the big event won’t be stressful. You will tons of different things on your to-do list. And, making sure they get done within the right time will be imperative to the overall success of the event. One of the most difficult tasks that you will be faced with will be choosing a wedding dress. Maybe you already have a dress that you love. Perhaps it fits like a glove and shows off your style and personality, but you feel that it is lacking. Well, with the following customizable tips, you can make your dress more fashionable.

Add Meaningful Brooches

If your gown is something that is simple without any lacy or intricate beading, you should consider adding a glam brooch. These little items will certainly add a sparkly detail to that back of the gown. There is a number of styles available. It might even be possible that your mother or mother in law has a brooch that she used in her wedding that you could take advantage of. Some mother will hang on to these items so that they can pass them down.

Take Advantage Of Belts And Sashes

When it comes to the mother of the bride dresses and wedding dresses there really is nothing that will spice things up like a simple belt or sash. These items might be simple, but they are an excellent way to add some personality to your dress. Belts come available in a number of fabrics, sizes, and colors. Some even include beads and pearls. Sashes are unique also, but one needs to consider the fact that sashes draw attention to the midsection so it will be imperative to experiment around until you find the one that best suits you.

Strapped Jewelry

If you want to make your wedding dress look more sparkly and glamorous, you simply can’t do better than the jeweled straps. These items are completely timeless and will transform your overall look. In addition to this, these items are removable, which means that you can utilize them during the reception as well.

The Power Of Gloves

Most brides forget that they have gloves available to them. These items might seem like a simple accessory, but they can really do a lot to enhance the overall look of your ensemble. Gloves are feminine as well as romantic. Just remember that choosing the right type of glove will really come down to the sleeve, fabric, and length of the dress so make sure that you experiment around a little bit before more a concrete decision.

Don’t Forget About Veils And Hairpieces

Your hairstyle will be a major concern on your big day as well, but there is no set rule that says you can’t spice things up with an elegant veil or hairpiece. A veil will offer a more contemporary look, while a tiara, headband, or fresh flowers will give you an overall different look.

Matching Trendy Handbags With Modern Outfits

Have you ever heard the saying that diamonds are a girl’s best friend? Sure, you have, but you might be surprised to learn that handbags are the real MVP when it comes to styling. Just look at everything the handbag does for you. It holds all the essentials like your wallet, your phone, lip-gloss, and now you can style it to match your modern outfit. Of course, as you probably already know fashion can be a fickle beast at best. And, matching the wrong styles with the wrong colors will throw off the whole ensemble. With the following tips, you will be able to avoid such disastrous situations and stand out amongst the masses.

Consider The Occasion

Most women already know that they need a handbag for just about every different occasion. As a rule of thumb, small bags usually give off a more sophisticated look while those larger bags give a more casual presence. However, this does not necessarily mean that those bigger bags won’t work with modern formal wear. You can combine a larger clutch or stiff bag with formal outfits and you will pull off the look that you are seeking. If you are out shopping, you can pair an over-sized duffel or hobo bag with a pair of sneakers, shorts, and a regular old t-shirt. Roomy tote bags go along great with modern tailored trousers.

Your Body Shape Does Matter

Most women already know that they need to choose clothes that mesh with their body styles, but they don’t realize that the same concept applies to handbags as well. You need to choose the right bag that will accent your best features. Pear-shaped bodies are usually better off with hip length bag or slimmer waist-length bags. Women with a big bust should opt for a saddle bag or anything that draw attention away from the bosom area. If you have curves all over the place long, slim bags are ideal for you. Petite women should choose anything with a long hanging strap or fringes. Rounded, oversize bags are the best option for tall and thin women. If you want the same quality designer handbags that can show off your body style for just a fraction of the cost, you should check out this best replica bags shopping guide.

Structured Day Bag

if you want a ladylike look when you out going about your daily actives, you simply cannot beat the feminine fit, flared dress combined with the structured handbag. This bag is simply classic in appearance and shape and best complements this type of dress. To really pull the looks together opt for a bag that is made of soft leather and medium in size. A top handle or over the shoulder style will both work.

The Cross body Bag

If you are one of those modern sporty women that like running around in jeans then there is nothing better for you than the cross body bag. The bag is compact and lightweight and hands-free, but best of all it is a no-nonsense bag that is capable of tying the whole look together. Such a bag coupled with pebbled leather will offer a chic and sporty look.

Business Plan 

Business plans are necessary when it comes to starting a business in the fashion industry. Every person who wants to start a business should engage in writing a business plan. A plan involves identifying one’s goals and expectations from having a business. It helps to chart a realistic course that will result in success. 

Costs 

You should figure out the costs of various aspects of running a fashion business. For example, what will materials cost? If you are running a website or a brick-and-mortar business, you are going to have to figure out how much money you will have to spend on domain names, rents, and monthly web host charges. If you are going through some sort of medium that is taking a certain percentage of your earnings, you are going to want to fact that in. 

If you want to know the cost of starting a clothing line, you are also going to have to figure out how much the materials will cost, as well as the amount of time that it takes you to create products. The cost of materials is not the only cost that you are going to have to factor in—there are many other costs. For example, tech packs have costs. Tech packs are packs that give exact directions about how to manufacture a specific garment. The cost of a tech pack depends on how complex the clothing pattern is, who makes your take pack and where your tech pack is made. If you go through an NYC agency, the cost of a tech pack will be $75 for a simple pattern, $300 for a garment of medium complexity and $550 for a garment that is most complex. In general, a US agency will charge about $200. A European freelancer will generally charge about $220. A specialized US agency will charge about $375. A Hong Kong Agency will generally charge about $150. 

The costs do not stop at tech packs. After creating a tech pack, you must create a sample for a garment. There are various companies that create samples for a fee. If you go through an NYC agency, you will pay $75 for a simple sample, $300 for a sample of moderate complexity and $550 for a sample of high complexity. If you go through a US manufacturer, the cost will be $200 for a simple sample, $275 for a sample of moderate complexity and $350 for a garment of most complexity. If you go through a European manufacturer, you will have to pay $100 for 3x production and $200 for complex. If you go through an Asian manufacturer, you will have to pay $50 for 2x production and $150 for 5x production. 

If you have to hire employees, you are going to have to figure out how much you are going to have to pay each employee. Are employees cost effective? Are they time effective? If you have employees, you may have to follow stringent guidelines that tell you how to pay them under various conditions. 

Supplies 

There are various supplies that you may need for a fashion business. These supplies include fabric, needles, seam rippers, paper, rulers You may also need a mannequin. Of course, you should have sewing and mending skills. Make a list of supplies for your fashion business so that you can check off everything that you need. 

Network 

Networking is one of the best things to do for a fashion business. You should spread the word about the fashion related services that you are offering. Go to events, tell your friends and family, get involved in social media and take part in community events. Networking is, by far, one of the best things that you can for yourself—no matter what pursuit you are trying to follow. 

Quality 

Find the right balance of quality and affordability. Do not make your products in the most inferior way and/or out of the most inferior products. Meanwhile, set reasonable prices for the clothes that you are selling. You are going to have to find a happy middle between these two things. You are going to have to source out quality materials. Where are these materials going to come from?

The engagement ring is the only truly lifelong accessory. Here are the top 7 timelessly elegant engagement ring styles that will still look flawless in 50 years

Did you know that the first recorded engagement ring in history has been traced back to 1477?

This traditional piece of jewelry has been around for over 500 years, and while the basis for them has changed dramatically, the beauty of them remains unchanged.

While some women prefer a more trendy engagement ring, there is something elegant about classic engagement ring styles.

The appeal of these for many is that they will never go out of style because rather than following the current most popular gem or setting, they continue to provoke awe generation after generation.

Moreover, they are tried and true, perfect for the simple, uncomplicated women that prefer a simple, yet lovely ring.

Read on to find out seven key engagement ring styles that have survived over the decades for you or that special someone.

Timeless Engagement Ring Styles and Settings

The biggest problem with engagement rings that follow the trend is that they will likely fall out of it at one point or another.

Moreover, an engagement ring is really not the best option for experimenting with new gems or settings that aren’t as validated by other women.

Perhaps most convincing is how astonishing the classic styles can be, as they speak for themselves. Here are a few to keep in mind as you dream about that perfect ring.

Solitare 

The most popular, yet simple ring style is the Solitare. The metal tends to be at the forefront of the design, so it is important to choose it wisely.

Additional features for this design could include some twisting and winding of the band to accentuate the diamond. It is perfect for someone who prefers one magnificent stone, such as .95 carat diamonds, rather than several smaller ones.

Bezel

A bezel setting can be the perfect combination of modern and classic, as it features a circular and secure hold for the diamond rather than prongs. This ring style works especially well for women who live a fairly active lifestyle.

Three Stone

This setting type is popular for women who have secondary gemstones they would love to have in an engagement ring. It involves one primary stone in the middle, accented by one stone on each side.

Vintage

There is a wide range of vintage rings inspired by different time periods. These are typically more intricate than others on this list, but their artistic, classic style is perfect for the elegant women.

Halo

The halo style ring style includes smaller diamonds surrounding a larger center diamond, usually in a square or circle.

Cathedral

This option for engagement ring styles is inspired by the arches of a cathedral and accentuates the center of a diamond with a mounted setting.

French Cut

Last but not least, this shimmering ring is ideal for those looking for a thinner band, without sacrificing any class. The French cut typically has 24 small diamonds set into the band, in addition to the large center diamond.

Find the Perfect Ring

The perfect ring will depend on many factors, but ultimately a classic ring is a beautiful choice for women craving a simple, yet a tasteful symbol of love.

A ring need not be complicated to be beautiful, and simplicity can, in fact, accentuate the setting for most engagement ring styles. Moreover, often times these rings can work best with wedding bands when that perfect time comes along.
