Manstyle: Beards, how sexy are they?

You have seen a lot of these lately curvy divas, men with beards.  Is that man with the beard doing it just for a fashionable manstyle look; or is there more to it than that?

Did you know, in November, aka Movember, sometimes even beginning in the month of September, some men grow a beard and don't shave in awareness of prostrate & testicular cancer.  They do this to raise funds to support the research and bring even more awareness to men's health.   There are also some musicians and athlete who will sport a full beard for this cause.  Lately though, I've seen these full beards on non-celebrity men, going about their daily lives.  While some men like a goatee, the trend is a full on beard for many.  Here's a thought, do you think men with beards are sexy?

Yes, ladies, do you think men with beards are sexy?  Well guess what?  The men who do wear beards think that they are!  Whaatttt?  Yep!  So that is why they still sport these full-on facial hair after Movember awareness has gone!  On details.com, Justin Fenner wrote that men do feel not just sexier but much more confident when they have a beard. A survey done by tool makers Braun found that 53% of men feel sexier to women because of their beards, and 41% feel even more confident.

Sometimes beards are used as a "badge of dominance".

They even surveyed men who were clean shaven, who confessed that the only reason they don't wear beards is because they couldn't grow any!  Hmmm, I wonder if this means there would be a lot of hairy guys walking around?!  I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. At any rate, there are some really cute guys out there don't you agree?!  You can go to the full article below to read more about bearded men, also, follow each link to learn more.

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November  2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!
