Speaking about her inspiration for the line, Dita said: "I wanted to re-invent the existing collection for a few reasons, one being that I love it so much myself, and I was so happy with the execution of the new bra shapes Wonderbra (http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/on/demandware.store/Sites-hof-Site/default/Search-ShowBrand?brand=Wonderbra&fromBrand=Wonderbra) made for me, that I kept fantasizing about having it in other colours and fabrics."

    Packing List For Climb Kilimanjaro This packing list is meant to help you decide what to bring and how to pack for your trip. You may not use all of the items on this list but you must be prepared for a wide variety of conditions. Most people carry a day pack while hiking and send their backpack with a porter. It is helpful if you pack your things in stuff stacks so weight can easily be distributed if necessary. Remember, new airline regulations require that each piece of baggage be 50 lb.. or less.

We recommend that you wear your hiking boots and bring the following items in your carryon luggage: • Prescription medications • Travel documents such as your passport (make copies and keep in two places) • Camera, or anything you can't replace before the trip • We strongly recommend that you leave expensive or irreplaceable items at home. CLOTHING, OUTERWEAR AND GEAR: __ Waterproof Jacket & Pants - Breathable material like Gortex is best. __ Pants - 1 pair of quick-dry or synthetic work best. __ Insulating Tops - 1 Heavy sweater or fleece jacket, 1 lighter top made of fleece or wool. __ Long Sleeve Shirt - For protection from bugs and sun. __ Long Underwear - Tops and bottoms made of polypropylene or other synthetic. No cotton. __ T-shirts (2-3 shirts, cotton is ok) __ Shorts (1-2 pair) __ Underwear (enough to make you happy) __ Mid-duty hiking boots that provide ankle support.

A prescription is needed for a stocking with compression pressure >15 mmHg. A fit measurement is usually done at the medical supply stores where you purchase your stockings. It is recommended to take your measurements in the morning before swelling builds in the legs to avoid choosing a stocking size that is too large.

  • The Lingerie Salesmen
    The Lingerie Salesmen Gary chases his dream job, to become a sales rep for a lingerie wholesaler. The story is set in 1968. 1 | P a g e As Gary Jones sat in the hotel restaurant in Norwich eating his steak and chips he reflected on what had been a good week so far for sales. It was a Thursday night in October 1968. He had secured several big orders from customers in his patch. He had been on the road for three days and was looking forward to getting home and seeing his wife in Peterborough tomorrow. Perhaps he might sit at the bar for a drink after dinner. There only seemed to be one other man at the bar, nursing a beer. Nine months ago, he had been working for a tractor dealer in Peterborough. Sometimes he had to travel round Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire and Norfolk, selling spare parts. Although he was a successful salesman he found it slightly dull. He had been looking for a new job that paid bonuses based on sales as he knew he would make more money that way. It was his wife who had pointed out the advert in the local paper for a sales rep for a local firm, called Webbers. He had seen the ad but had skipped over it. The sales rep would be selling women’s lingerie and hosiery to department stores and family run businesses anywhere in the UK. Although the firm was also based in Peterborough it would probably mean being away from home most weeks. “But I don’t know anything about women’s clothes, “he said in protest.

Where should employers draw the line in the workplace? What grooming guidelines, if any, should organizations develop? When it comes to dress codes, what legal rights do employers and employees have? Are there any guidelines on religious dress? These questions and more are what employers and employees are asking everyday. With times quickly changing and as younger generations get older, norms and expectations slowly transform. Business attire five days a week has become more rare in the average workplace or agency. Young executives and managers are more liberal in there approaches to issues of this sort, making the term “dress for success” less stressful and more cost effective for the average person. Grooming Standards Personal "style" reflects a diverse workplace and often individuals with tattoos are creative individuals.
