So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Helpful Advice On How To Choose Wristlets

By Mica Nordstrom


Items commonly purchased in the market are wallets and wristlets. This is primarily because these items provide both fashion and function. As such, they are considered among the essentials of women's accessories. With that said, it is important for every woman to select the best of these items that will accentuate their lifestyles.

The term wallet has been used by ancient people since the first century A.D. It is derived from the Proto-Germanic term "kibiskis" which is loosely translated as wallet. Wallets were originally used by men and women, especially those in the lower class, to hold their provisions such as money, clothes, food as well as other essentials. Wallets were used to carry dried meat, money, some treasures or things that the owner would not like to be exposed. It was basically a survival pack for the owner. With the increase in the use of metal or coins as a mode of exchange, wallets became more popular and evolved from the pack of provisions to packs that could contain coins or sometimes, statements of accounts. The bi-fold wallet with card slots was standardized during the early 1950s which coincided with introduction of the credit cards and the Velcro. This is by far one of the most popular wallet designs these days. Several designs of wallets can be seen in the market today and the image of this pocket essential continues to evolve with smaller versions becoming possible trends in the future.

On the other hand, there are the wristlets which are defined as any closefitting band or strip of material worn around, or sometimes sewed on a sleeve, the wrist, as for warmth. Wristlets can also be referred to as bracelets. Modern wristlets however these days come with purses which are increasingly becoming popular among college girls as well as professionals. Wristlet purchases are not only fashionable but are also functional as they can be used to carry different items such as mobile phones, make-up essentials and even books depending on the wristlets size. Wristlets can also come in many different designs depending on ones preferences and style. As fashion accessories, wristlets can be mixed and match depending on ones outfit.

Choosing the best type of wallet and wristlet that will suit ones lifestyle requires understanding of ones wants and needs. The first thing that many be considered is the material of the wallet and wristlet. Leather wallets are the most advisable as they last longer and can match any outfit. Wallets and wristlets made of silk or any light colored fabric are not advisable as they are hard to clean and they easily worn out. If silk is one of your considerations, make sure that the wallet or wristlet only have a tiny silk on them and not fully crafted from silk.

It is also important to determine the color of the wallet and wristlet you prefer to purchase. This factor is important in determining the number of times as well as the occasions when they may be used. Recommended colors for these items are brown, black, and other darker shades that can often be used to mix and match with your clothing as well as the event you are attending. The items' brand is also another vital factor to consider when selecting a wallet and/or a wristlet as this may dictate the quality of a product.

Both wallets and wristlets are essential items that are both fashionable and functional. Nonetheless, the use of these items is still dependent on the user's preference and style. As such, whichever design or brand you select for these items, what is really important is that these items are able to accentuate your personality.
