What color shoes and jewelry can I wear with a champagne colored cocktail dress




Oh, I forgot! You asked about the jewelry too, and I only answered about the shoes and purse! The jewelry, with a dress that color can really be whatever kind of jewelry is your personal favorite. It more about the jewels than the exact color to match the dress in this case. Rubies can look beautiful (if those are your birhstone in July, and also my personal favorite), but you can go wrong with diamonds, EVER (April birthstone.) Remember, they are a girl best friend. I am a former jeweler (owned a fine jewelry store), and I have no particular reason to push one over the other, but with this color dress, the choice is really yours. You can wear pearls if you like (June birthstone), or any colored stone that coordinates nicely with your own skin tone. If you look best in warm shades, then wear reddish or golden stones and gold or bronze tone metals, but if you look better in cooler tones with your skin, then wear silver metals and bluish stones or clear stones like sapphire, turquoise or aquamarine. Pearls could work for everyone. Again, I hope this helps. Half fun in your new dress!





I have a salmon colored dress and I need to find shoes to match. What would be a good color? I also have a pastel yellow dress. What color shoes can I wear with that? Will someone please help?





I am wearing a navy blue dress to a wedding. I was thinking of wearing navy pumps w/ it and then adding some more color w/ jewelry. Now, though, I wondering, do you think I could wear brown shoes and maybe a brown beaded necklace to tie it in?

What did Fox News Lauren Sivan and Rick Leventhal dress up as for the Howl




The biggest newsmakers of the year were out in full force! Host Lucky Diamond "floated" in as the infamous "Balloon Boy," Fox News' Lauren Sivan and Rick Leventhal earned their wings as hero Captain "Sully" Sullenberger and his flight attendant, with their little dog, Spanx, as the pesky bird that caused the plane to go down. Even Eli the Chihuahua, dressed as the Pope, "blessed" us with his presence!





Everyone from Scooby Doo to Princess Fiona to Elvis had a tail-wagging good time at Animal Fair's 9th Annual Howloween Costume Party, which benefited the Humane Society of New York. Pup was one of the most talked about canines of the "pawty!"





Even Michael Jackson made an appearance just in time for the release of This Is It!





Some of the other big winners this year included a doggie duo dressed as Snoopy and Woodstock, who made a big entrance in a little airplane, a 70's Guido dog who took the "honor" of "Most Tasteless," Jane Pontarelli's little Maltese was a "diva dog" dressed in a $1000 bright red Kleinfeld's dog wedding dress that could rival Mariah Carey, a "baby" being carried in a pouch by his "daddy," a flashy showgirl - I should say showdog and Luigi, a tiny punk rocker, complete with a little pink Mohawk, who arrived with his parent, Mary of Rescue Ink.





We were also treated to an appearance by Marie Antoinette and her yummy doggie "cakes," as well as Stephanie and Ira Churnick with their pup as a Native American family, going the whole nine yards with headdresses and moccasins. Also getting cultural was Caroline Lieberman and her furry friend, Maharajah Mumbai as an Indian prince and princess. The fashionable dog arrived decked out in a traditional Indian tunic, pants, jewelry and even a turban!





The winner of this year's raffle was a pint-sized pooch named Porsche and her human parent, Grace Foster, both decked out as Shrek's bride, Princess Fiona. They both seemed to have an "ogre"-whelmingly good time!

What Colors Will Suit Your Miniature Schnauzer




If you are tired of hearing people say, "Isn't he cute?" about your little girl, then consider a pretty, feminine pink. Pink bows are good for a girl, or a pink t-shirt with "princess" written on it will dispel all doubt. If you want people to know that your baby is a boy, then think of a blue outfit with matching blue leash.





Blue is also a good color for white schnauzers. Think of crisp white clouds against a blue sky. For a bold, modern look, a black sweater is dramatic against your white Miniature Schnauzer's fur. If your Miniature Schnauzer is brown, think of fall colors. Brown goes well with dark green, orange and gold. For a black Miniature Schnauzer, red can be dramatic. Like white miniature Schnauzers, gray Schnauzers do well in blue.





If your Miniature Schnauzer is multi-colored, think of which colors will show most when he or she is wearing clothes. If the dog is wearing a turtleneck sweater, for instance, his or her head and legs will show, so work with the colors of the head and neck. For winter, a blue turtleneck sweater is cute on a white dog. A darker dog might wear red and green for Christmas. Try a red and green sweater with red or green matching booties and hat. Bows can be color coordinated with the fur on your dog's head. If a sweater's neckline comes up only to the neck, then find a color that goes well with the color of your dog's neck.





Some dog owners like to dress themselves and their dogs in matching outfits. This can be achieved simply or more elaborately. A simple way is to tie colored hair bows into your dog's fur and wear a matching shirt or blouse. A white dog can wear black bows while his or her human wears black pants, a white top, and perhaps a black jacket. A more elaborate way might be to dress your brown Miniature Schnauzer in a green sweater with gold bows while you wear a brown, green and gold sweater. Even if your colors do not match, you won't want them to clash, so don't wear your purple outfit if your Miniature Schnauzer is wearing orange.





For holidays you can coordinate your outfit with your dog's with contrasting holiday colors. Dress your dog in yellow and yourself in lavender for Easter, or wear silver and dress your Miniature Schnauzer in blue for Hanukkah.





School colors and team colors are also fun for dog's clothes. Pet supply stores frequently sell t-shirts and sweaters in the local teams' colors. If you live far from your old school or your old hometown, try the internet, or if you sew or knit, you can make something for your dog. Use the same cloth or yarn for your clothes and your dog's, so you can be sure of an exact match.





For a party, you can decorate in your favorite colors or colors coordinated with the theme of the party, and dress your dog in the same colors as the decorations for a cute look. Use your imagination and you can come up lots of fun, colorful outfits to suite your Miniature Schnauzer.

What do you think of NYC ban on super sized soft drinks




I think the ban is great, in that now perhaps children will not be gulping down mass amounts of high sugar content soda pop loaded with caffeine. Caffeine is a drug so why is it so easy for children to obtain? The problem is nobody wants the government in their kitchen but the government doesn want to keep shelling out money for these programs intended to educated people to a better healthier way of life. Health care for people is astronomical especially since certain types of long term illnesses are avoidable if only people would take better care of their bodies.





Education has always been key in changing behavior but that education can only go so far because marketing and fast food restaurants do not back up that education. Places like fast food restaurants should raise the price of soda pop and lower the price of milk, all natural fruit juices and bottled water should be free. These kinds of changes will have a greater effect on the average individual who is going to treat their family.





I agree with Animal_World that people have lost their sense of self control. People have given up their common sense and look to marketers and governments to tell them what they should or shouldn eat. This is evident every time a "new" diet hits the information super highway.

The helmet is just a standard piece of equipment. You expected to have some sort of cover on any time you outdoors (your hat most of the time, but a helmet if you out in the field or training). At least with me, the first couple times I put my helmet on, it felt like I gotten a bowling ball wrapped around my head, because it was very thick and heavy, but eventually you get used to it. I was in Army ROTC, and in addition to the basic clothing, we were issued an equipment belt that included a pair of suspenders (they have a purpose, I just not sure what) and a couple small packs for extra ammo, a first aid kit, odds and ends (a notepad, pen, flashlight, compass) and two canteen pouches. We were also given canteens for those pouches, of course. We had a large duffel (about 3 H x 1.5 W) full of equipment, including a foam bedroll, a sleeping bag, tent stakes and rope, a large plastic tarp/poncho, rain pants and jacket, a smaller duffel, a backpack, and I don remember what else. We were also issued Class As (dress uniforms) and exercise clothes (Army shirts, shorts, and long pants). I would suggest going to a local Army Surplus store if you can, because they have a lot of equipment there, and you can familiarize yourself with what available. And, might I add, thank you for being willing to join the National Guard and to serve our country. You got at least one person here who appreciates it. I was in ROTC for a semester but wasn able to continue because I had other classes that interfered with it, and even though I didn contract, I got to be around those who had chosen to, as well as the colonel and the major who are both active Guard members (the major was just deployed to Kosovo last month, actually), and I got the deepest respect for those who choose to join.
