Your shoelaces give you an opportunity to display a practical, frivolous, fancy or traditional style, depending on how you lace them. You can choose from a myriad of lacing techniques, ranging from basic cross lacing to decorative starburst lacing. If your style leans toward the minimalist, try concealing your shoelaces altogether. You can hide both the laces themselves and their knot under the shoe's tongue, creating a seamless look that disguises your sneakers as slip-ons. Because the tongue does not protect your feet from contact with the laces, this style is not recommended for athletes.

When you have cataracts, your ophthalmologist may recommend cataract surgery in which a monofocal lens is surgically implanted in the eye. This surgery, which is invasive, is an outpatient eye operation. To get the most effective results, and to avoid bacteria buildup or infection in the eye, heed your doctor's advice when it comes to wearing makeup afterwards. The eye that was operated on will be sensitive following the surgery, and, as such, it's critical to consult with your ophthalmologist before putting on any makeup.

Fortunately, there are many places within your home to seek shelter, including inside door frames, in basements and beneath staircases.

The key to looking good in front of the camera, especially outdoors, is to wear a look which is natural, and not too heavy or dramatic.
Use Photoshop CS5 to make blinkies -- animated GIFs for your email signature -- by painting several animation frames of an image, each of which changes slightly from the previous frame. You can speak volumes with your blinkie, because it can have as many frames as you want. This means you can make a mini movie that evokes the essence of your personality. If you're a heroic type, for example, show yourself leaping over tall buildings. Since blinkies are GIFs, you'll have only 256 colors to paint them with. This probably won't hinder you, however, because Photoshop has dithering algorithms…
