Online Tips Help Improve my Public Speaking Skills
©
My worst fears were about to come true. Having just been promoted as the head of my branch, I was supposed to address a press conference on the future plans of the company. My public speaking skills have never been tested till date and here I was – going to take on a house full of journalists and stake holders of the company. I knew that I needed to improve on my public speaking skills, but before that I had to also get my wardrobe and looks in order. My current timepiece was a bit outdated and so I went online and found a site to buy luyxury watches. Now all I needed was to hone up my public speaking skills.
Feeling some nervousness before giving a speech is natural and even beneficial, but too much nervousness can be detrimental. Some of the I picked up online to improve my public speaking skills were to use humour, personal stories and conversational language. Rehearsing out loud and practicing with a timer is important. Imagine yourself speaking, your voice loud, clear and confident. Greet some of the audience members as they arrive. Begin by addressing the audience. Focus your attention away from your own anxieties and concentrate on your message and your audience.
Before speaking–and while speaking, take deep breaths that result from diaphragm movement, not movement of the upper chest. Public speaking pace should be slower and more deliberate than conversational speech. Having notes with you is the safest way to give a speech, especially a long speech or one filled with important points. Be prepared to update your talk on the spot as the result of pre-speech encounters with members of the audience.
Hopefully the tips I have picked up online will help me and make the press conference a success.

Changing Tastes in Taiwan Fashion Clothing
©
"There's nothing for me to wear" is a common complaint of men walking around the Taiwan fashion clothing sections of Taiwanese department stores. It was only recently that retailers in Taiwan began to see men as fashion objects, and while things are beginning to improve, men are still largely overlooked when it comes to fashion.
There are basically two types of men's clothing in Taiwan: brands for the young and hip, and conservative dress for the mature businessman and professional. According to a manager of the menswear department at Taipei's Evergreen Tokyu Department Store, most of the men's fashions produced in Taiwan are geared toward teenagers and young adults. These men don't usually have a large budget for clothes, and they aren't too concerned with quality. Older professionals and executives tend to buy imported clothes that are on the conservative side.

This summer check out the latest fashion trends for women. Harper Bazaar has the latest fashion trends out!
The mini skirt is out, for now at least. The maxi skirt or the knee high skirt is in for the great summery look. Salesha from LA Models said, "I love it, I actually really like this kind of skirt a lot." The best part is that this skirt type is flattering to most body types. The latest fashion trends also include the tribal prints and faux fur, brighter colors are in. Colors that are in the latest fashion trends are tropical-colored print dresses; the aqua blue, and green are the colors to go for this season. The v- neck dress is also very much in vogue this summer.
The latest fashion trends are drawing inspiration from the 1970s and the 1990s look is way out. Jumpsuits, sheer lipsticks, wide leg pants and colors are in. The latest fashion trends include a very lively, colorful set of clothes. The summer accessories need to have color too. A turquoise and gold ring and pendant necklace set, like the one by Carlo Viani, is definitely in says Loddo. The last tip on the latest fashion trends is pick one or two things that are summery and colorful and do not fill our entire wardrobe.
