When it comes to buying shoes, we all look to get the best quality footwear at the lowest possible prices. This is an understandable aim but is it one that we can all really achieve?

The way in which many people buy shoes has certainly shifted in recent years, as has been the case for the purchase of many clothing and accessories. Where once we all opted to shop in a high street store, more and more of us have started to look online for our shoe shopping.

This seems like a sensible route to take. Internet shopping was initially slow to really take off here in the UK - there was a feeling that it was the preserve of a few, those who understood the internet and may have been seen as geeks.

Opinions started to change due to a number of process. One of these was the fact that internet access became more widespread, which has been helped by the rise in the popularity of broadband.

Another key feature was that the internet was initially associated with security concerns. People felt unsure about buying shoes, or any other items online, with the risk of having to give away personal and financial data in this way.

Fortunately, such fears have been eased as we have become more used to the online world as a part of our normal lives. Many people now have broadband internet connections in their own homes and use online retailers on a very regular basis.

So this has all contributed to the rise of internet shoe shopping, but are there more reasons than these? One key point to note is that many of our actions tend to depend upon our wallets.

In other words, we often look to spend the least amount of money possible. When it comes to shopping for shoes, what this means is that we look for the cheapest means of purchasing footwear. Looking around at our various options, it has become clear to many of us that online shoe stores can give us better deals.

Why should this be the case? Many traditional retailers will tend to have higher costs and overheads, which they then pass on to customers. This means that high street stores would be expected to have higher prices.

Given that this is true, it should be not surprise that online deals are often better.

Another key feature of shopping online is that you can make use of discount codes and vouchers to get even lower prices than those that are regularly advertised.

It's easy to see why more traditional retailers are suffering in the face of this competition.

If you want to save on shoes then it's clear that you should look to buy online.

Shooting is an essential part of basketball and it is often one of the most neglected parts. If a person is fast they may reduce their shooting practice because they know they have the ability to drive to the whole almost anytime they want to. If a person is a good ball handler they may do the same. Even with those skills neglecting shooting practice is not a smart thing to do. You should want to be a triple threat to drive, pass, and shoot so that you can confuse your defender. It you do not have the ability to shoot the ball well people will lay off of you giving them an advantage.

If you are a bad shooter there are many things that you can do to improve. One of the first things to do is evaluate your shooting form. This can easily be done by having someone video tape you shooting so that you can watch it to see what you are doing incorrectly. You can also have a coach watch you shoot and help you improve. Once you figure out what is being done incorrectly then you have to figure out the correct way to shoot. That can be done by watching some of the quality shooting videos available.

There is always one key question On every shoppers mind - how cheap can I get it? This is true of airsoft guns too. We all expect to be able to get the best possible deal with anything we buy today. Fortunately investing in an airsoft gun doesn't have to break the bank - you can get some exciting models at very attractive prices.

The quality and features of your airsoft replica will depend on your budget. There are three basic types of airsoft gun - in order of expense they are:

Spring

These are the cheapest airsoft guns you can get. An internal spring shoots the pellet from the gun. They're single shot guns which means you'll need to cock the gun each time you want to fire one of the plastic bbs. This can get annoying at times but these guns can be purchased for just a few dollars.

Gas

Gas powered models add one immediate feature - automatic fire. With a gas powered airsoft rifle or pistol you don't need to cock the gun each time because it has a gas charge built in. These are far more powerful than most spring airsoft guns and slightly more expensive. This extra power comes at an added expense - the gas needs to be refilled. This can be achieved with co2 cartridges or a portable hand pump. For the added expense gas airsoft guns definitely feel more like the "real thing".

Electric

And finally the electric airsoft gun. Also known as AEG (Airsoft Electric Gun) these are the top of the range when it comes to airsoft guns. Each AEG has a tiny but very powerful motor inside which powers the firing mechanism. There is still a spring inside an AEG but this is controlled by the electronic motor to achieve high rates of fully automatic fire. One of the really neat things about this type of airsoft gun is that it can be loaded with miniature paintballs. A word of warning however - if a paintball breaks inside an AEG it can clog up the entire firing mechanism meaning you'll have to strip the gun down and clean it.

So with airsoft guns it's best not to focus on the word cheap. What you're looking for is value for money and the features that suit you most. You can buy an airsoft gun for less than $20. That doesn't make it cheap - just very good value for money. Regardless of the cost of your airsoft gun once your friends see your new "toy" they'll want one too!

What a relief to see our old favourite in the spotlight again for the winter 2005-2006 fashion season. As we breathe that sigh of relief one must surely ask herself the obvious question: has black ever really left us? Was navy or brown ever the new black? As fashion designers tempt us to delve into colourful new worlds, arent we ever true to that wonderful absence of all colour? Or is black the presence of all colours? Whichever scientific or philosophical approach you chose to follow, one thing is certain: black is officially back! In case you didnt already know.

Rumour has it that black goes with everything. Perhaps there is some sadly accepted truth to that rampant rumour since it seems to be a widely accepted norm, but I have found that there is a good chance we have all been mislead. One can easily challenge this age-old regulation of fashion simplicity by looking into a mirror while sporting black pants combined with a lime green top. Forgive me gentle readers, but if I am to be honest I must tell you, the combination is simply indescribably nauseating. Please honour the beauty of lime green by paring it with grey, turquoise, or forest green or just the right shade of blue. One must not dishonour colours such as lime green or the black by forcing them to be seen in public together. Fashion is the one place it is completely acceptable and advisable to segregate on the basis of colour. Feel free to carry a eucalyptus bag while wearing grey trousers with a pale pink sweater. Adding a scarf which beautifully gives permission by marring the three colours will make any lady, who is able to wear pink gracefully, look simply smashing.

So, what can the elegant lady of the coming season wear with that black which is back? The answer is basically anything which wont make you look like a peacock wearing her mourning clothes. Black is so elegant on its own. Save black for when you feel elegant, or understated and confidentorfat. Black looks wonderful on its own, with toast, cream or with any shade of grey. Dont be afraid to pair it with navy. If the combination didnt stop Yves St. Laurent, it shouldnt stop you either. Just be careful not to wear it in a way which appears to be a mistake: you know what I mean, the manner of combination which leaves all those who gaze on your person wondering if you got dressed with the lights off. If you wear black trousers and a navy top, just be sure to balance the look with something black near your face which says I meant to do that. Another elegant way to soften black is to pair it with a chocolate brown; this combination lends a day look to a night-time colour.

What luck we have this season to find our old friend officially back. How lovely it is to see it back with its old friend azure blue. Plum and winter white are on offer for the more neutral among us and red strikes the fancy in everyone. Ladies, it is going to be a beautiful winter!

Remember that canary yellow baby doll dress? Yes, the one that looked great in the window at the little boutique on the corner. The one that still looked great neatly folded in the shopping bag and then displayed on your bed next to your new Christian Louboutin stilettos. Yes, that one that made you look like you made a dress out of the fluorescent lighting at the DMV.

So what happened? Put simply, you wore a color in the wrong seasons. Understanding seasons can be confusing. There are fashion seasons, and then there are seasonal colors. Again, its confusing because there are colors that go in and out of style based on the time of year. Then there are colors that correspond to personal coloring seasons.

The key to understanding your season is through color analysis.

Color 101

Hue

Hue refers to the colors we see and name. So red, blue, and orange are hues and so are colors with fancy names like Toasted Pumpkin and Tahitian Moonlight.

Hue also refers to color temperature. You've probably heard the terms warm and cool but colors also fall into in-between temperatures called neautral.

Value

Value refers to the lightness or darkness of colors.

Intensity

Intensity refers to brightness or darkness of a color. For example, canary yello is a bright color and baby blue is a soft color.

Color quality

Color quality combines value and intensity. Some colors are pure, meaning they haven't been altered from their purist form. Others are lightened into tints by adding white, or darkened into shades by adding black, or softened into tones by adding gray or brown.

Personal coloring

Personal coloring refers to the hues of our hair, skin and eyes. Our attributes have a physical value that varies from person to person and the intensity varies too. A person with strong coloring can wear bright colors, while someone with soft coloring looks best in softer colors. So if you have light blond hair, fair skin and pale blue eyes, chances are a canary yellow dress will wash you out.

What's your season?

Based on your physical attributes, (hair, skin, eyes), most people fit into a specific seasons Natures color patellettes include four standard seasons:

Spring: golden, fresh, light, and energetic. Florals and bright colors, rounded bodices, ruffles.

Summer: cool, gentle, and refined. Lots of pastels, flowing tops, dresses and skirts.

Autumn: dynamic, earth, opulent. Orange, purples, warm tones like burnt sienna and umber.

Winter: striking, dramatic, intense and serene. Vibrant reds, high contrast, can wear skin tone to keep contrast low.

Seasonal guys

Autumn guys are those rugged gents with facial hair and strong facial features. Deep reds look great on male autumns. The winter man looks fantastic in tuxedos, in leather for a casual look but most winter men tend to dress up. Spring guys can get away with fun accessories and opt for red, white and blue colors. Summer men look best in subtle patterns and blended components and textures.

A huge problem faced by many ugg lovers is to identify the perfect and best pair of uggs. Many small brands are imitating the real uggs because of their increasing popularity. Also many unauthorized brands are set to manufacture the fake ones designed with cowhide or pig skin that may harm your skin. Therefore, you have to be careful while shopping for sheepskin boots. This article will help to save your dollars from shopping fake ugg boots.

Quality or real boots are designed with double-faced sheepskin that will ease your feet with comfort. Double faced sheepskin is a single layer of sheepskin maintaining its thermostatic nature with the inner as skin (plain) and the outer as fleece that keeps your feet warm in winter and cool in summer.

In order to lessen the price of uggs, some manufacturers are using single-faced material / pigskin instead of double-faced sheepskins. This will ultimately reduce the quality of boots. But by looking closer you can find some tiny holes on the boot which states the boots are made of pig skin.

Be Careful while buying uggs:

• Usually, the stitching quality and the finishing design of the fake uggs is very meager when compared to the real ones. You can identify counterfeit boots by looking at the soles and logos. Soles of fake uggs are extremely rigid while the soles of the real ones are highly flexible.
• Genuine ones are featured with much sheepskin fur inside the boots for fluffy appearance and warmth. Where as utility of 'fur' is quite less in fake ones and sometimes the fur seems to be slightly dull grey in color.
• The heel portion is much narrower in replicas than the genuine sheepskin boots.
• The shape of the front portion of the counterfeits is bit shorter while the front part of the real sheepskin boots has a rounder and longer finish.
• One can find UGG label on the back of the real ugg boots. The printing styles of letters on the label may differ or may have some gap in between the letters. In authentic boots, the letters will slightly overlap each other.
• Real ugg will have few Registered trademark symbols on its outsole whereas imitates lack this.
• If your elite choice is ugg classic tall / classic short, you should look at the bottom of the boot that contains the symbol 'UGG'
• Authentic ugg boxes are strong and sturdy. Usually, the words "UGG Australia" are printed in the middle of the lid (top portion of box). Recent 2007 ugg's boxes come in a flip top box.
• You can easily identify the replicas knowing its price. The cost of real boots is at least 140 (approx.). The price of 'UGGS short' and tall is at least 70 and 85 respectively.

Roller blading is considered to be a good choice for all skaters, especially during the off season.

But, the fact is that roller blading is a great tool only for speed skaters. It does not prove to be a useful training element for figure skaters.

In the present scenario, many skaters have started to incorporate roller skating into their training for speed skating. However, inline skating in the off-season is an excellent for short and long track ice racers.

It is very essential to make a combination of weight training, stretching, and cardio training, a part of the exercise regimens for speed skaters. This kind of training includes bicycling, plyometrics, and roller blading.

Off-ice skating tends to help the speed skaters to maintain their physical conditioning over the summer months. Incorporating inline skating in the training is quite beneficial for speed skaters.

As off-ice offers more resistance, inline speed skating helps to build cardio and respiratory endurance needed for long-distance racing. This is because inline skating requires more energy to sustain speed.

On the other hand, with roller blading, skaters can slow down and focus more on perfecting techniques.
Moreover, the speed skates are much lighter than the inline skates. Therefore, the skaters who roller blade and then race on the ice feel more powerful and light with their speed skates.

Bear in mind that training with weights around the ankles is not a good idea as it is known to cause knee problems.
This is because the extra weight from inline speed skates allows the ice racers to develop some amount of tolerance to the heavier off-ice skates.

Ultimately, it is this tolerance that translates into more speed on ice when the extra resistance and weight are removed!

The main rationale behind wearing motorcycle jackets is protection. In fact, motorcycle jacket is protective clothing that offers considerable protection to the rider from accidents, foreign elements, etc, apart from providing the best protection against the wind and rain. Apart from potential accidents, motorcycle jackets add to the glamour it adds to the riders.

Today, various types of motorcycle jackets are available in the market, and these consist of simple cotton motorcycle jackets, leather motorcycle jackets, and riders jackets made of various protective materials depending upon the specific requirements. A great deal of efforts are nowadays put into design of motorcycle jackets and riders jackets so that they can serve for a two-way purpose, first to offer protection, and second to give a stylish look to the rider. When buying a leather motorcycle jacket, try to find out whether it is made from cowhide or sheepskin. Cowhide jackets are thicker, offer better protection, and are durable. Sheepskin jackets, on the other hand, are more fashionable as color can be easily and effectively imparted.

You can get fashionable sheepskin jackets in a variety of zippered, patch worked and other fashionable designs. Whatever jacket you choose, any good motorcycle leather jacket should not be stiff, should have a usable pocket space, and should offer weather protection, adjustability, and usability. The thickness of the leather determines the kind of protection and hence checks it out, depending on your requirement. You may also choose between short skin tight rider jackets which facilitate greater speeding, more comfortable jackets for city cruising, and leather jackets for racers. Whatever jacket you choose, your jacket should always serve the purpose for which you are buying it.

Women who have a larger figure and want to look slimmer can easily knock off a few kilos instantly and appear slimmer by following a few simple guidelines.

If you want to look slimmer quickly, then simply follow the seven steps below in your choice of clothes.

1. Wear clothes that fit

Dont delude yourself and try and squeeze into a size smaller than you really are.

It won't make you look slimmer and will have the opposite affect.

The reverse is also true, if you buy clothes that are too big. Baggy clothing will make you seem bigger than you really are as well as giving you a sloppy appearance.

The important point to remember is clothing needs to fit well in order to make you look slimmer.

2. Colors to choose

Black is the most popular color and around 60% of the clothes sold in the UK are in this color. Its popular as it makes you look slimmer and this is true of all dark colors.

Darker colors are always give a slimmer look than lighter, pale colors simply because they absorb the light.
Dark grays, olives, browns, burgundies, in fact any autumnal colors will work well.

The other point to keep in mind when trying to look slimmer with colors, is dont wear to many colors 2 or 3 is fine.

Also, if you have one main color for the whole outfit you will emphasize length giving a slimmer look.

For example, Dont wear a different color jacket to your skirt, keep them the same color.

3. Patterns

Keep away from horizontal stripes!

This will mean people will look across your body, where to appear slimmer you need them to top to bottom, which makes you appear slimmer.

There may be times where you need to wear say a pinstripe suit for business.

If you do then go for thinner the stripes, which will make you look slimmer. Vertical stripes will draw attention from the top to the bottom of the body, which is your overall aim.

Keep away from patterns as much as possible the better the result in terms of creating a slim look. If you fancy wearing patterns keep them small rather than large but really their best avoided

4. Fabrics

Shiny fabrics should be avoided, as should thick fabrics. Thinner, matt fabrics are generally more slimming and absorb rather reflect light, making you stand out less and appear thinner.

Stretch fabrics such as Lycra, should also be avoided, any fabric that hugs your body to tightly, will do you know favors at all.

5. Styles

Length is one of key ways of making you look slimmer.

Long jackets should be single breasted as opposed to double breasted so to not emphasize width.

Longer length skirts are best when they are straight and not flared, as flared skirts give a bulky feel to any outfit.

6. Accessorizes

Accessories are a great way of diverting the eye away from areas you dont wish to stress.

Necklaces, bangles, and earrings should be coordinated with nail varnish and lipstick will divert eyes away from areas you dont want people to notice.

Accessories such as belts, chokers broaches should be not be used, as they draw the eyes to areas you do not want people to notice.

For example, a belt looks best on women who have small waists and wish to show off this area as an asset.

The reverse is true if your waist is a problem area. A belt acts as a horizontal dividing line, and you want to really give an overall impression of height, which means not cutting your clothes in two.

7. Shoes

A pair of high heels is preferable to flat shoes, as will again give the overall impression of length and hence detract away from width.

The above simple guidelines will make anyone appear slimmer and present a better overall image.

What you see - Just beside the Lifestyle building at Begumpet is Clothing Deck, Hyderabad. As you enter the store, glittering watches (both for men and women) of a wide variety catch your eyes. But don't get confused, as Clothing Deck is not really a watch store. Explore the place and you will see apparels for women and kids on the ground floor and those for men on the first floor. As you move around you will realize that it caters to almost all the fashion needs of youngsters. You name it and they have it. All the sections in the store are neatly segregated so that you don't get lost in the wide range of products they have.

What you get - Owned by Harsh Agarwal and Ram Agarwal, this store stocks clothes and accessories for men, women and kids. Starting from a simple kurta (around Rs. 245), the range extends to blazers (Rs. 1,800-3,000) and jackets. And if you are going abroad, this is the right store for you to buy winter wear. All through the year, this store stocks winter jackets available from Rs. 1,200-3,000. And if it's a Ferrari Jacket that you are eyeing, that's there too at around Rs. 1,500.

Jeans, trousers, shirts, T-shirts, shoes, sandals, slippers, watches, sunglasses, perfumes, deodorants, belts, purses...The list of clothes and accessories just goes on and on. Skull caps come in for as cheap as Rs. 150-300. Trendy watches are in abundance and the prices range from Rs. 300-1,200.

The children's clothing section is by far the most economical and they have trendy sets of clothes on sale. Though there is officially no tailoring facility for children's clothes available you can still coax them into making that perfect little suit for your little one for less than Rs. 1,000. Jeans, jackets, Superhero T-shirts/sunglasses and even Superman underclothes are available here. Since the clothes are imported do make sure they are tried on at least once before buying as the sizes could be inconsistent.

For women, the store may best be described as a budget clothing store in Hyderabad. This Hyderabad clothing store has a decent collection of blouses, T-shirts, casual/formal shirts, trousers and skirts. The range is quite fluid so there might be an abundance of crushed skirts one week and a great collection of formal trousers the next week. The choice and price range do not compare to say a Linking Road or a Janpat but if it is your lucky day you might just hit the jackpot and find the exact combination you were looking for. The store also has a good collection of accessories to go with the clothing especially junk jewelry.

The verdict - This Hyderabad clothing store for men, women and children is unique because of its wide variety of collections. They offer tailoring facilities too. So if you want tailor-made suits then 48 hours is all you have to wait for. Don't look for brands here though. Most of the stuff is bought from China and Bangkok. Clothing Deck runs offers on an ongoing basis. So keep an eye for those. There is also a special membership scheme for customers buying products worth Rs. 1,000 and above. And put your worries aside for parking as it's easily available for two-wheelers right in front of the store. For four-wheelers it's just a stone's throw away from the store.

Can you imagine a time where women live in a world of fashion devoid of stockings, tights, or pantyhose. Granted this wasn't always issue, but there was a time when the tights and stockings were far from the comfortable, form fitting, versatile ones we can go out and buy today. Stockings have endured a long and strange life that began over 400 years ago in Europe. Here are some interesting and fun facts about stockings that you may not know.

• Men in tights. That's right, it was men who first coveted this leg hugging fashion. Somewhere around the mid 1500's stockings were knitted from materials like wool, silk, and cotton and were mainly worn by our male counterparts while women still were a little out of the loop.
• Women did begin to wear panty hose eventually but for a long period of time silk tights remained something that only well to do women were able to afford and wear.
• The major movement in the history of stocking, at least in women's fashion, began as the hem lines of dresses lifted from basically the floor to the ankle. Once women began to show more skin stocking began to become more popular.
• Even though women in the early 1900's did wear stockings, it was seldom as a fashion statement. Instead, women's stockings were worn much like we wear bras and panties, that is, they were only worn as part of an extensive undergarment set.
• In the 1930 and 1940's when the political and social climate of the world began to change, not always for the best, the hem line seemed to get hirer and higher. This is probably the reason why by 1930's tights were become a wardrobe staple for many women.
• The being era of stocking for women marked a time when there were more sizes that just the A B C's that we find in our department stores. Stockings were made from materials that were not as elastic as the nylon we have nowadays. This meant that stocking were often, baggy, didn't fit right, needed to be held up, and came in a variety of sizes. This is also why there are seams down the back of the leg.
• Stocking were mainly made from silk or rayon, which is actually artificial silk, this made stockings expensive leaving women with only a few pairs. Since they were not as easily obtained as they are today, many women were forced to "darn" or sew their stocking when they were damaged or ripped.
• During World War II tights were expensive and the material was rare (many materials used to make tights were used for military purposes) Since the hemline was around the knee about this time, many women felt they needed to have panty hose to complete their outfit. What did they do? Women who couldn't afford or find pantyhose would use eye liner to draw a line up the back of their legs that would resemble the seam found on stockings.
• Think that the ever increasing popularity of tights with designs and prints on them is something new? Think again. Women during the 1940's often painted different themes and motifs on their tights to personalize them.
