Homework might be a pain, but thousands of children across the country are also in agony for a lesser known school-related reason. 96% of kids store their school stuff in a backpack, and a whopping one-third of these wearers suffer from painful back and shoulder problems associated with their backpacks. 60% of doctors report having to medically treat pain in children caused by backpacks, and bad backpacks are the cause of emergency room injuries in over 13,000 children across the country each year. - AOL Shopping
Many years ago, when she was just a little girl crawling across the living room floor, you probably never thought this day would come to fruition. Guess what...It happened, it's finally here, the engagement ring is on the finger to be followed by the wedding ring ... your little girl is getting married. As much thought as you may have given to this day over the years, you never imagined it would be stressful. There is so much to plan for and do to prepare for the big day. There is the wedding dress, the photographer, the church, the reception hall, the tuxes, and...aren't you forgetting something? Every bit as important as helping your daughter plan her big day is choosing a mother of the bride dress that fits you perfectly and looks great. At one time, mother of the bride dresses were pretty much all the same; most women wore a gown that came to the floor and an accompanying formal jacket. Like weddings themselves, the rules for choosing mother of the bride dresses have definitely changed. Of course, the exact dress you will choose depends on the wishes of the bride (your little girl!) - she may decide a cocktail dress or evening dress are better for the motif. Taking the following factors into consideration can help you choose the perfect mother of the bride dress; one that makes you look as fabulous as possible without taking away from the beauty of the bride.Continue reading It's Not Your Mother's Mother of the Bride Dress

Knee high boots work well with dresses, short and long skirts, dress pants, and even jeans. If you're a true boot fanatic, you can always buy a pair of ankle boots and ultra daring and flashy thigh high boots too, but neither of these choices will offer quite as many options as knee high boots.

The cocktail dress: it's flirty, sexy, practical, and fun. But did you know that cocktail dresses also have a long history dating back to the 1920s? At that time, prohibition was still in effect. Drinking was strictly illegal, but that didn't mean that nobody did it. No, far from it. The small-time renegades who managed to get their hands on alcohol would host cocktail parties. And like the women of today, the women back then felt it was imperative that they look their best, hence cocktail dresses.Continue reading Cocktail Dresses Are Always Special Occasions

Although real cowboys get annoyed when you call them cowboy boots instead of western boots, they're fashionable nonetheless. Tired of having legs beaten and bruised by the outdoors, and struggling to get into stirrups when riding horses, cowboys back in the day asked for a higher boot with a pointed toe and an underslung heel. Of course, the cowboy boots worn centuries ago were not meant to be a fashion statement. They were rugged, tough, and able to withstand abuse from the elements, much like the early cowboys themselves. Today, western cowboy boots are still known for being high quality, long lasting footwear, but they're mainly purchased for their great looks; with most men's cowboy boots never actually touching a horse. And we're sure that the cowboys of yesteryear would cringe if they saw a pair of rhinestone cowboy boots. Whatever your reason for wanting a pair of cowboy boots, it's important to choose the right material and the right fit. Regular care is also necessary to ensure your cowboy boots will last for years to come.By N. Bhatta - AOL Shopping
