How To Wear The New Distressed Jeans
Lets Start With The Perfectly Distressed Pair Of Jeans
1. pair with a clean white tee a trench and ankle boots, if you don't have a trench invest in one now it absolutely takes a so so outfit to another level in one easy step.
2. Add a wide brimmed hat and a classic button down shirt Not tucked in for a modern look almost anyone can pull off, add Big sunglasses and be that chic mysterious woman other woman want to be.
3. If it's chilly top your tee with an oversized sweater keep the jeans narrow though, remember if your baggy up top keep the bottom narrow and vice versa, if you're baggy all over you'll end up looking shapeless.
4. Try rolling up your jeans and adding a pump, flat ballet shoes, or strappy sandals.
5. Pair men's looks with feminine looks, these oxfords with rolled up jeans and a sequin jacket, the combination sounds off but looks perfect here on Anastasia from Turchin Jewelry's SS2015 Campaign.
Don't forget the layered bracelets and necklaces.
6. A classic black layered tank with a mans button up is one of my favorite looks with distressed denim, I am wearing this as a uniform this spring. I'll also wear my skinny jeans with this.
I love the Lariat Necklaces from Turchin Jewelry's Classic Necklace Collection, just perfect with this style!

The BEST Of Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is one of the few foods that can be classified as a “superfood.” Its unique combination of fatty acids can have profound positive effects on health. This includes fat loss, better brain function and various other amazing benefits including beauty uses.
I first bought coconut oil when my brother, a serious health conscious guy researched the benefits of coconut oil and alzheimer's disease, that runs in our family. I bought it and started to use it instead of olive oil and loved the flavor, I even spread it on toast like butter and found it to be delicious, it sounded weird but try it it's incredible.
If you don't like the smell of coconut oil you will never like it, but if you love the smell like I do, its just glorious, I don't mind smelling like an exotic cocktail. I started to experiment by using it as a conditioner and my hair was so soft afterwards and less flyways too!
1. Heat up some water and add a teaspoon of coconut oil and mix well, Look for extra virgin that has not been hydrogenated, bleached, or refined in any way or [has] any fragrance or dyes added to it.
2. Put it in your hair after you shampoo and rinse, comb through and leave on for 5 to 15 minutes then rinse well.
"I also love it as a body scrub it works amazing at making my skin extremely smooth and dewy, and softens rough elbows miraculously."

Highly Allergic To A Sanitized Life
Why are Allergies Increasing?
The occurrence of allergic disease is skyrocketing, and some estimates are that as many as one-in-five Americans have an allergic condition. Allergies are specific and reproducible undesired and unpleasant immune responses that are triggered by naturally occurring substances such as foods, pollens or other influences in our surroundings. Overwhelming evidence from various studies suggests that the "hygiene hypothesis" explains most of the allergy epidemic.
The hygiene hypothesis states that excessive cleanliness interrupts the normal development of the immune system, and this change leads to an increase in allergies. In short, our "developed" lifestyles have eliminated the natural variation in the types and quantity of germs our immune systems needs for it to develop into a less allergic, better regulated state of being.
This diagram simplifies the immune system into two separate tendencies: TH1 and TH2 responses. On the left, we see that exposures to germs, "dirt" and certain types of infection are part of the natural development of our immune response from a "default" TH2-based system at birth to a "mature" TH1-based system. On the right, we see how some cultural choices can interrupt the course of the immune system, and allow the TH2 response to continue to dominate and promote allergic conditions. Therefore, many of the advances of modernization, such as good sanitation and eradicating parasitic (helmith) infections, may actually be fueling this epidemic of allergies.
