This Is All We Got Now Ep7

Edwards Pov i moaned. she wanted me the same way i wanted her. i had to please her. i carried her through the shadows and up to her bedroom. it didnt look much different from when we where children so i knew where everything was. her canopy bed was at the center off her room.there was a dresser on the north wall of her room and a window on the east side of the room. the walls where a soft blue but the darkness of the night made it darker. i kissed her again making her shiver. she moaned as i sucked her neck. she slowly removed my shirt tracing my abs. "how did you get these??" "years and years of chasing and carrying children." i laughed under her lips. we undressed each other and i put her on the bed when she was only in her undergarments. she knitted her fingers in my hair while smothering me with kisses. i slowly but carefully undressed her completely and kissed every inch of her body. i lay on top her now breathing heavily for the excitement in me made me nervous. "bella, ill change my ways for you. ill become a better man for you." i whispered in her ear. she kissed me and rubbed her body against mine. i smiled as we made love. i cant describe how wonderful and magical our time was. it was as if we where touching the heavens above. but i didnt know i had just made the biggest mistake of my life. my hunger pain kicked in. my mouth watered as i kissed her throat. the monster inside me snapped. i bit her.

Joe's Fan Interest [Chapter 12]

--Joe's Side. I watched Selena walk out of the room, laughing. And Then Demi sat there smiling at the camera,"I Wanna Tell you I forgive you but..I don't wanna tell you threw a camera in a poster!!" She slighltly laughed. "I really do wanna know why you've been stalking me, but whatever.." She stuck her finger over the camera and then she appeared again. "Grab a pen and a peice of paper..I'll give you my cell number..and hopefully I won't regret it." I sat there shaking my head no, in a total daze. Then I felt a pen in one of my hands and a peice of paper in the other hand, I looked up to find my mom. She smiled at me, patting my back and walked off. I looked down at the pen and paper and wrote down every number she gave me. She repeated it abou ten times, I just sat there smiling. Then she got up and walked out of the room. I ran over to my bed grabbing my phone, I quickly put it in the number and texted her. I watched her phone vibrate on her dresser in her bedroom and sighed. The first time I get to see her and I--I was a jerk. Getting all flirty and everything else. I mean sure I have her number but I'm not going to see her again. I sighed in frusturation. --Demi's Side.

Create a Sanctuary in Your Bedroom

If you consider that you spend almost one third of your life in your bedroom, you should take a moment to make it into a space that is truly rejuvenating for you. While of course you want your bedroom comfortable for sleeping, you may also want to create your own little sanctuary in your bedroom where you can shake off the stresses of the day and simply unwind and relax.

Let Pressures Melt Away
Your bedroom is your private space, and as you consider your decorating options, you will want to remember this: To help create a relaxing atmosphere, you can start by simply removing all of the clutter from your bedroom. Just this one simple task will make a huge difference in the look of your bedroom. Without all of the interruptions of clutter, your mind can take a break from the stresses of life.

Three Kinds of Lighting
Once all of the clutter is removed from your space, you can decide exactly how to arrange your lighting. You will probably want to include all three kinds of lighting in your room. Overhead lighting is great for when you want to do chores in your bedroom like fold laundry or vacuum. Then you will want to have some task lighting, and a good place for this type of lighting is on either side of the bed for reading. You will also want some very soft, ambient light just to add a little glow to your room, and there may even be times when a little candlelight is warranted as well.

Plan to Relax
As you are deciding what elements to include in your room, make sure to have some type of CD or stereo in your room, and if they can be controlled by remote, that would be ideal. Make sure that you have a good place to store books and magazines if you are a reader, and you may enjoy playing cards, working on a puzzle or writing in your journal. Whatever relaxing activities invigorate you can be included in your room. Remember, as you are adding all of these elements to your room to have a good place to store everything that is out of sight, as well as an appropriate place to enjoy the activity itself.

You may or may not want a television in your bedroom space. While a TV can be relaxing for some, it is annoying for others. If you want to turn your bedroom into a suite, you may also want to include a small sitting area and maybe even a coffee maker or mini fridge. If you plan to incorporate this level of luxury into your bedroom suite, then make sure that you have appropriate storage to also keep them tucked out of sight.

Soft and Luscious Bedding
And for the focal point of your bedroom, you want to dress your bed with the most luxurious bedding that you can find. Look for soft and lush fabrics, and include ample, soft pillows for reading or writing in bed. A bed tray can also be handy for writing or even enjoying a leisurely breakfast in bed. By even adding some of these elements to your bedroom space, you may find that you feel like you are staying in a five star hotel, even while you are still at home in your very own bedroom.

Aico Chaetu Beauvais by Michael Amini from FurnitureSavings.com

Visit us online at www.Furniture-Savings.com The influence of French Rococo design comes to life with the signature pierced carvings, intricate inlaid marquetry, bombe shaping, and a duo tone finish called Noble Bark. French Rococo came to creation during the late 17th and late 18th centuries, with the word originating from a combination of the French word "rocaille," or shell, and the Italian "barocco," or Baroque style. It is most well known for its use of asymmetrical compositions, undulating lines, and S-curves. Rococo furniture took on a role of comfort and versatility, and Chateau Beauvais™ follows the example. Throughout the collection, the accent furniture pieces can be moved from room to room, seamlessly blending into the décor. As well, each piece has been carefully designed for maximum comfort. The upholstery features multiple fabrics mixed with metallic leather, and includes several unique pieces including a sweetheart chaise. The gentle inverted shape of the sofa compliments the carved wood and glass oval cocktail table. The bedroom group showcases a mansion bed with unique pillowed wood headboard and footboard, and dresser with bombe styling. The dining room boasts a trestle base rectangular dining table that can extend for any occasion, and detailed marquetry with a botanical feel. Like its predecessors, this Rococo styling contains lighter elements, with plenty of curves, and natural, intricate patterns. It is scaled and proportioned to suit any home with ...

Mysterious Bullet Pierces Home

No one knows how or why a bullet pierced a home, going right through the walls, into the bedroom and into the dresser. "It's surreal, it doesn't seem like something that would happen in Rexburg, let alone in my house," said home owner Nate Miller. That's Nate Miller, and he has an incredible story about a mysterious bullet. No one knows exactly where it originated, or why this trailer home was hit. It's trajectory is well, quite frankly, odd. "I don't know how it would have made it through the trees, but it was angling down," said Miller. The Miller's were home at the time, and heard a loud pop. "I was playing with Noah in the front room. That's when it happened, that's when the bullet came in," said Miller. Your bedroom is supposed to be a sanctuary. But for the Miller family, this bullet hit a little too close to home. "So it would have passed right here above my wife's head, and my feet," said Miller. The bullet hit this dresser, wood fragments from the dresser and wall were sprayed across the bed and floor. Nate found parts of the bullet with his metal director as well. "BEEP - BEEP," noises from the metal detector. "I do psychosocial rehabilitation. And some of the kids I work with have been involved in gang related activities. And I doubt it's involved, but you never know," said Miller. The gunshot took place between 3:30 and 4pm on Saturday. If you have any information that will help detective figure out the story behind this bullet, please give them a call at 359 ...

How To Put Sex Appeal Into Your Bedroom Furniture Style

You don't have to be intimidated when you decide to decorate your bedroom in a style that is appealing and sexy for you and any guests you have. Your bedroom should reflect your inner feelings and become a den and sanctuary for you that can make you feel sexy and sassy. This kind of design doesn't require a huge amount of effort and can be accomplished with a few pieces of furniture, starting with headboards and a new bed style. Once you have modern bedroom furniture, you'll be able to start with a clean palette you can dress up with sex appeal.

Choosing from among stylish headboards will help you begin with a design that shows your personal taste in terms of color and theme, as well as a shape from which you can build around. Simply exchanging your current style for an iron or metal bed, a simple and sleek design ready to be accented with plush pillows and thick comforters in lush, brilliant colors that make you feel sexy. These beds serve as a simple baseline for an entire theme, and one of the best ways to work around them because of their clean lines and modern look is to make it the centerpiece and draw your additional clean, straight lines and angles directly from its dimensions.

Wrought iron headboards make a great accent for these beds, adding a focal point at the top of your new bed frame to draw the room together and bring their attention to how your personality comes through in the theme. These headboards can be quite intricate in the metal working, or they can be simple with the clean lines you are using elsewhere in the room.

If you want to choose something a bit more intriguing while still keeping it simple, a king loft bed can be really sexy in a contemporary fashion bed. You can top this bed with one of a million headboards that will instantly blend into whatever design elements you prefer for your sexy lair. Because they are similar to platform beds in that they are so simple and sleek, you can again work around them and incorporate them into any sexy design that brings out who you are.

The most important thing about adding sex appeal to your bedroom is to make sure your choices for pieces to use make you feel sexy as well as comfortable. It is your lair, and any headboards, beds, and accessories you install should appeal to you and your sense of style and level of comfort while still adding that little bit of intrigue.

How Girls Dresses Have Changed Throughout History

Girls dresses have gone through many transformations throughout history. They have often reflected the feelings and thoughts of the times. Hundreds of years ago, children were not considered innocent babes. Rather they were viewed as miniature adults, and as such, were dressed like adults. Uncomfortable miniature versions of adult clothing, or tight fitting, swaddling clothing meant to confine children so adults could work were the norm during the 1400s and even well into the 18th century.

By the 18th century, however, it was believed that children were indeed not like adults, and full of sinful thoughts and desires. Instead, it was believed that children were innocent and creatures of nature. Outdoor play was encouraged and the empire dress was born. With girls dresses in empire styles, little girls and big alike were able to run and play will still retaining some form of modesty. In fact, the empire style is still a very popular style of dress even today.

The Victorian era's elaborate style of clothing was ushered in by the 19th century. The increased affluence of the middle classes meant they could afford more options when it came to fancy dresses. Thus came the uncomfortable finery in girl's dresses. Tight bodices with corsets, leg o' mutton sleeves or gigots, and lots of crinolines were popular during this time.

Although beautiful, girls dresses in the Victorian era were difficult to live and play in. Early women's rights pioneers railed against this senselessness, and as a result, bloomers were introduced by Amelia Bloomer. Bloomer, the predecessor to pants, remains a popular addition to dresses today.

Eventually, in the mid to late 19th century, the formality of the Victorian era gave way to a more relaxed era of fashion. Bodices over slips, and with ruffles at the skirt were popular as were drop waist girls dresses. Drop waist dresses often featured wide sashes and square collars. These dresses are popular dresses today for special occasions.

Around the beginning of the 20th century, the classic in girls dresses, the yoke dress, became popular. Yoke dresses featured fitted shoulders and sleeves but flowed from the chest down to usually just above the knee in a loose skirt. This style enabled dresses to remain comfortable so girls could run and jump and play without being restricted by their clothing. Although modified, the yoke dress is the model for most dresses designed for play even today.

Special occasion dresses of the era often featured drop waist cotton dresses with skirts above the knees. Tiny pleats and embroidery on the skirts were popular as were big bows in the hair and Mary Jane shoes to complete the look.

Flapper dresses as well as shirtwaist girl's dresses became popular about this time too. These tunic dresses were comfortable for girls. Embellishments such as beads enabled these styles to be dressed up for special occasions. Rompers or bloomer dresses also came out around this period of time. These were short styles as well, with bloomers underneath for modesty.

Many of these styles of dresses are still evident today, although often modified to reflect today's tastes and trends. Many times embellishments such as beads, sparkles, bows, or ribbons are added. Bright colors, multiple colors or pastels all offer a way to modify dress styles to fit the demand.

Accessories such as purses, jewelry, hats, gloves, bows and the like can do much to add personality to dresses. Such additions can also allow girls dresses to reflect the individual style of the wearer while encouraging her creativity and playfulness.

Odd Shaped Window - No Idea How to Dress it?

Check this out to get some practical window treatment ideas for your own home. Guides to the do's and dont's. They should give you some food for thought before you leap in and get started. (The other option...brick your window up and have done with it. What do you think?)

Answers to a Tall and Narrow window?

My window treatment ideas for this kind of window. Set the curtains wider than you would normally. This gives the illusion of a wider window. Make the rod or track around 30cm wider each side of your window. Rather than the usual 20cm. Then when you open your curtains don't push them back as far as you would normally.

Wide window causing a problem?

Window treatment ideas for this kind of window are to not set the curtains to wide off the window. Probably only 15cm at most. Even though you have a lot of fabric to stack back when they open. You can use tie backs to hold them off the window. Another option is to use a thinner fabric.

Another thing that works well to give the window height is a valance or pelmet. Only rather than the usual 20cm depth make it 30 -35cm deep and fix it higher on the wall. So with the curtains not set to wide and a deeper top treatment this gives the illusion of a squarer window.

The dreaded arched windows!

Best window treatment ideas for arched windows. Most folks find this style of window a real pain.

It can be as simple or as complicated as you want to make it.

The easiest thing to do is so simply fit a curtain rod straight across over the window and hang a pair of curtains. Just simply treat it like any other window.

If you want to work with the shape (talk about making life hard for yourself) and have curved top curtains that drapes back into tie backs, then this what you must do. On the width measure every 15cm across the window put markers on the window sill. Then note the full window width.

Next measure and make a note of both outside straight edges up to where the arch starts. Finally at each of the markers on your window sill measure straight up from the sill to where the tape measure touches the curve. make a note for a these vertical measurements. It's a good idea to make a quick sketch of the window and jot your sizes next to the places where you measured.

If someone is making the curtains for you just give them the sizes as measured. If your having a go at making yourself then (take a tranquilizer) you need to multiply all your width sizes by 2.5 to allow for gather.

What to do with a door curtain!

Window treatment ideas for doors. Normally you would have a single curtain drawing back to the hinge side of your door. It makes a lot of sense to have the curtain tied back. (otherwise your door curtain will end up flapping like supermans cape every time someone opens the door on a windy day)

Sometimes there is not enough room on the hinge side of the door for the curtain to stack back off the door properly. You can have the curtain draw back the opposite way as long as you have room to draw the curtain completely clear of the door.

If you only have a small space on the hinge side of your door and no room the other side. Then the best option is to have an eyelet curtain on a rod with 1.5 X width of the door. This will stack back into a very small space.

Kitchen window Ideas

Window treatment ideas for kitchens. Your over sink curtains should be a few cm's short of the work surface even if this means just reaching the window sill. Also generally tied back to avoid splashes. (your kitchen floor will still end up flooded when the kids wash up after dinner, but at least your curtains should stay dry)

Another suggestion is don't use curtains and if you need privacy then fit a roller blind with moisture resistant fabric.

Another thing to consider if you really do want curtains is having unlined curtains made of a good polycotton fabric. This will enable you to launder your curtains whenever they get cooking smells on them.

Great Ideas for you bathroom

Window treatment Ideas for your bathroom. If you have a window over a bath or shower. Then don't bother with curtains full stop. It will be a complete waste of time and effort.

Really the only practical thing to do is fit a roller blind with a moisture resistant fabric.

If your window is away from the bath or shower then go for it and have some curtains. Even still keep them short and have them unlined. also pick a fabric that will launder well and dry well if they become damp with steam in the bathroom. Polycotton fabric are very good for this.

One last idea is to have a polyester sheer curtain on a rod drawn right across your window and scooped back into a hold back arm that matches your curtain rod. Dressed properly this can look very soft and feminine. Whilst giving you some privacy.

Patio doors and French doors!

Window treatment ideas for patio and French doors. these are great windows to have allowing lots of light into your room.

One of the drawbacks can be lack of privacy on occasion, or the sun maybe a problem.

An easy way to solve this is to fit a sheer curtain on its own rail fixed in the window recess behind your proper curtains. You can then open and close them to suit.

Panel track blinds a really great idea for large windows like this. They are very modern and contemporary. They can be opened and closed by moving the panels by hand or by pulling a cord. Just like a standard corded curtain rail.

The proper panel tracking system is a fairly pricey piece of kit. There are other ways of getting a similar look. I am sorting out some info on this and will put a new article out very soon

I hope this helps you with your "odd" shaped window.

Canopy Bed Fabrics

Canopy beds do have special fabrics that are meant to dress them up. Canopy beds are not ordinary beds that need just a neat and tidy tuck in bedding with a pillow slip. They are unique in style and decor. Hence they need to be outstanding and attractive too.

Fabrics are of varying types from cotton to satin you can avail the best offers of fabrics like lace, cotton, satin, velvet, muslin and even acrylic. A canopy without drapes is not very appealing unless it is designed to be that way.

If you have an antique canopy bed then definitely drapes will be necessary. The modern day canopies are designed with geometric designing that need to be exposed to add pep to the décor of the room. They do look extremely beautiful without drapes.

Whatever your canopy bed may be made of wood or metal, if it is meant for drapes then the fabric for the drapes should be carefully planned and selected so it can match all the furniture and other drapes in the bed room.

Cotton is the best choice if you are planning something for your kids' bedroom. Cotton is durable and versatile too. They are eco friendly and washable, the only disadvantage is that they get wrinkled easily and need to be pressed each time they are washed. In cotton there are various designs and pattern of fabric that is eye catchy and unique too.

Lace too like cotton is durable and versatile. You can use lace in your master bedroom canopy or in your teenaged daughter's princess canopy bed. Lace looks beautiful when it is neatly pleated or simple left to flounce in frills from top to bottom. Lace is available in pastel colors as well as in beautiful prints to suit the individual.

Acrylic is a kind of fabric that adds warmth to the bedroom and it is mostly used in cold countries. Though in today's world there is a whole lot of modern central heating and cooling systems available in each home, acrylic brings that warmth along with its grandeur to the decor of the bedroom. This fabric too is versatile and very durable.

Of course, velvet and satin are names that spell class, so they can be treasured for important occasions or important guests. They do make a lot of difference in the bedroom, especially when they are in pastel colors and are draped perfectly. Dress up your canopy bed with the finest fabrics available and stay comfortable.

We attended a special preview of the Innoventions Dream Home in Tomorrow land at Disneyland last week. This is a short video of the dresser in the daughters bedroom. You can store a picture of all of your clothes and it will suggest different outfits for you. Or you can just try them on as seen in the magic mirror. I wish we could do this in the stores when you are trying to buy a special outfit. The video is taken with a regular camera not a video camera, please excuse the quality. Please let me know if you like the video by leaving a comment. I have a couple more short videos as well. Thanks for watching :)

Enlarge Your Tiny Bedroom

No need to panic if your bedroom is too small. There are many things you can do to increase the space of your room. Simple and affordable things such as paint, rearranging furniture, and adding window treatments is all you need to open a smaller room. Let's get started!

The first thing that can instantly make your room larger is paint your ceiling. When you make your ceiling the same color as your bedroom walls, you will instantly open up the room. The seam lines will be gone, and your ceilings will appear higher than they really are. Make sure you select a lighter paint color. Lighter colors such as a light blue, lavender, or a pale yellow will open up a small room, while darker colors such as red, burnt orange, darker shades of blue will make your room appear even smaller.

The next thing you can do is use your windows as a focal point if possible. Center all of your bedroom furniture in front of the windows. This will help take attention off of the size of the room, and draw your attention to the windows.

Dress your windows with window treatments that contain vertical stripes. Stripes will instantly make your room look much larger. You also want to make sure you hang your window treatments as close to the ceiling as possible. The longer the drapes hang, the larger your room will appear. You can also hang drapes behind the bed along the entire wall. This trick will make your small room appear grand by drawing the eye upward.

All of these simple things can be done with very minimal effort. They are affordable and make a great weekend project.

5 Steps to a Beautiful Princess Room in Two Days

Five easy steps to quickly and easily creating a lovely Disney Princess Room for your little girl.

1. First things first. Let's start with the basics. Every princess's favorite color is pink, so indulge your little girl with a beautiful medium pink paint color on the walls of her room (or palace, whichever you choose). To make it safe for her, use the Fresh Aire paint from Lowe's, which is a no VOC paint. It is easy to use and helps the king and queen rest assured that the air in the princess's room will be clean and pure the very night it is painted. You can find princess stamps or vinyl wall stickers that are removable.

2. Next choose a bed that will be special and comfortable to sleep in. Reasonable princess bedding that matches your pink wall color can easily be found at Walmart or another discount store with prices from $30-$50 a set, depending on the size of the bed. No princess is complete without her pillow; so make sure she has a special princess pillow to rest her sweet little head on each night before retiring to bed to sleep.

3. What should adorn your pink princess room walls? Shelves of course! No princess room is complete without shelving scattered with the famous princesses like Cinderella, Snow White, Belle, Sleeping Beauty, and Ariel. Frequent your local Disney store for ideas. Framed photographs of the Disney Princesses or of your little girl dresses in her princess dress up clothes can also be displayed royally on the walls for a cute and special look.

4. No princess room is complete without storage for her toys to keep her floor neat and tidy. Many craft stores sell square, lined baskets that can slide under the bed or can be stacked on top of each other for extra storage capacity. A white toy box or unfinished wood box with a lid can be a nice and beautiful place to store her princess dress up clothes or other toys she may love to play with in her room. She can keep her wand, tiara, boa, and princess cape in her storage baskets or in her dress up trunk or box for later use!

5. Last, but not least, don't forget the closet where your child can hang her beautiful ball gowns. She will want to hang her Cinderella dress, Snow White costume, Sleeping Beauty outfit, and Ariel clothes in there right next to her school uniform or preschool attire. Make sure you have organizational tools at her fingertips so she can easily have a place to put her clothes and toys away. It is a good idea to start teaching your children early to put their things away and to have a place for things to go so they can learn that valuable skill at a young age.

Make her room extra special by following these 5 simple techniques that can be implemented in a day or two. A weekend and a small budget should be plenty of time to create your own special princess room. Have your little girl help you with the details or do it as a surprise for her next birthday or other special occasion. She will love and use it for years to come!

Closet Doors Dare To Be Different

You've just spent a considerable amount of money on the interior of your closet, installing a closet organizer to assure that your shoes, ties, belts, scarves, dresses, shirts and slacks are all easily accessible. As nice as the interior of your closet now looks, you don't want the effect to be spoiled by a door that doesn't do it, or the rest of your bedroom, justice.

How big is your closet?

Of course the type of closet door you have depends in large part on the size of your closet. If it's a wall closet - very shallow - then of course you'll need a different type of door then if it's a walk-in.

The four types of closet door, therefore, would be the simple panel door that opens outward and lets you into the walk-in closet, bifold doors that let you view your wall closet, and the sliding doors which could be used for either version, depending on the length of the closet itself. The accordion door is also a choice.

Bifold doors would allow you to use over-the-door system to store shoes, for example - which would not work with a sliding door. Sliding doors can look more attractive than bifold doors, however.

Matching or contrasting colors?

Of course the first thing you'll have to decide about the door is its color. You'll need to find a color that will match your bedroom walls, or set it off in a striking manner. If you'd like to give your bedroom the illusion of greater size, than you'll want to get mirrored doors. And for that really elegant touch, you can even get sliding frosted glass doors.

And you'll have to give some thought to the future, of course. If you like to change the color of your bedroom every now and then, you won't want to have to change the closet door as well because it would clash with your new decor.

Vinyl or wood or what?

And what should your closet doors be made of? You've got a lot of varieties to choose from: stamped steel, hollow core, super-thin wood, or solid wood. Solid wood doors give you the most variety in their design, for you can have them hinged, folding, sliding or with pocket applications. These doors can have flat panels - to which you can affix mirrors or fabric, or louvers. (Kestrel Wood Closet Doors is one company that offers solid wood doors of high quality. They also do custom doors.) For mirrored closet doors, Fort Glass (fabricators of Stanley Mirror Doors) are one provider out of several that you can investigate on the web.

There are so many choices that you won't want to rush into your decision. Take your time investigating sources on the web, visit such stores as Home Depot or Menards or the specialty stores in your area. You can also take advantage of open houses in housing developments to go in and visit these houses and see the way those closets and bedrooms are designed. You'll then be able to make an informed decision.

School Girl Fancy Dress - 3 Outfit Suggestions For an Adult School Girl Costume

Along with nurses uniforms and french maid outfits, school girl fancy dress costumes are renowned for being one of the most popular types of adult dressing up and role play outfits. This may very well be true, but the adult school girl costume is also very popular at Halloween, school reunions, seventies discos and on Hen nights. Overall, this must be considered to be one of the best value for money costumes you can buy, seeing as there are so many opportunities to wear it, so no wonder it is so popular. Below are 3 adult school girl costume suggestions that you may want to consider if you are searching for a sexy outfit to wear to the upcoming costume party and would like something that you might make further use of in the future.

Outfit Suggestion 1: Classic British look

This is basically an adult version of the type of uniform that you yourself would have worn while at school. These work particularly well at school reunions and the school disco nights that many of the night clubs have from time to time.

The advantage of the classic British look is that it is one of the few outfits that pretty much anyone can make themselves and still look authentic. A grey cardigan, white shirt, short black skirt, sensible black shoes and your old school tie and you have yourself a costume. However, it is good to remember that there are bought costumes out there that will look much better, so at the end of the day it will come down to budget.

Outfit Suggestion 2: American High School look

If you want to look a little bit different to the other school girls at the party, then you could always go for an American High School look. You will have probably seen this type of uniform in dozens of chick flicks over the years and these types of outfits are now available online. If you do not fancy the classic High School look, you could always opt for a cheerleader or nerd outfit instead.

Outfit Suggestion 3: Naughty Prep School look

If you want to wear something a little bit more sexy, whether it be for the party, the bedroom, or both, then a naughty Prep School outfit might be your best choice. These are quite often based around a tartan mini-dress, or a white blouse and tartan mini-skirt, knee-high white stockings and black chunky heeled shoes.

Remember that these so called "private boarding school outfits" range from being a little bit risqué to downright slutty, so choose something that you are going to feel confident wearing and which is suitable for the event in question.

Redecorating the Bedroom - Where to Start

You'll probably start designing a bedroom by considering your options for a bed. Sure you sleep in your bedroom, but the bedroom has far more purpose than this. Especially for kids, bedrooms can be sanctuaries and special places. It's a good idea to make the bedroom as ideal as you can.

The bed is a good place to start though. For kids, there are plenty of options. You can go with a twin or full size. They can have a platform bed with storage beneath, a loft, bunk beds, a racecar bed. There are many options! Go for broke with the bed, and economize with the nightstand and dressers because most kids don't worry about those so much as long as they are functional.

Loft beds are really useful, and save a lot of space. Most people discover loft beds in college, where they are frequently used to maximize usable space in dorm rooms. With a loft, the bed is raised and underneath you can have anything from a wardrobe to a desk to a futon or bookshelves. If you raise the bed, you suddenly have a lot more usable room.

The only real negative to a loft is the climbing up and down when you are tired. If you are sleepy it can be a pain to have to crawl on up to bed.

Still, loft beds are really very popular. In fact, some people like these beds so much that they still use this style after college.

You probably are familiar with your bed frame options. There are the standard headboards, but also sleigh beds, tufted beds, more modern bedframes, and so on.

It's easy to pick the material. Do you want metal or wood? Metal frames are available in various colors such as black, white, or brown. You can also get wood frames such as oak, pine, maple, or cherry.

You have the option of getting a matching dresser and nightstands, in the same material and color, if you choose. You can also go the opposite route, and get these pieces in a different material or finish to complement a more eclectic style.
