The Planking Craze

Planking is the recent craze of people these days. It is an activity where the person lies face down with his or her hands and arms to touching the side of the body.  The person must be photographed and uploaded to some social network sites or electronic album as part of the game.

I have seen a lot of people doing this weird pose and sometimes I am amused. However, recent plankers have taken the activity to a new level by planking to posts, balconies, light poles and even McDonald's signage. It was reported in Australia that a man plunged to his death by planking on his apartment's balcony.

It is okay to do this safely but when you cross the boundaries of safety and logic then I think this craze is a crazy one! No pun intended.

A good fashion sense can take you places. It holds a strong standing to one's impression of someone. So, having a good fashion sense is vital in making it big.

Putting clothes together for the heck of just being clothed is not an excuse for not being presentable. Some people go out of their way to peruse fashion magazines, watch fashion trends and get styling tips from the experts. Some people refer to fashion industry news for information on what is hot and in mode. Others simply mimic their idols and voila! You have one 'fashionista.'

It is nice to be dressed up and well presented. One does not require to be decked expensively as long as the clothes are properly coordinated and matched. There are ways to cope with confusions when it comes to mix and matching without overdoing the style. The Internet is a great way to search for styles and get tips to improve one's fashion IQ. A great site to visit is Stylecaster. There are numerous get-ups to choose and play around with by mixing them with other styles and cuts. It is really helpful and informative.

It is wise to invest in a sensible fashion to cater to your lifestyle. Sticking to the basics of whites, browns, blacks and grays is not bad. Just accentuate with accessories to complement the clothes. It is not hard to be fashionable as long as you do not go over board. Next time you know it, you are comfortable, confident and fashionable.
