Merle Dress, one of the top suppliers of wedding dresses and special-occasion dresses in the market, is launching a promotion for sweet 16 dresses, up to 49% off, to help girls to stand out for the special birthday.

Happy sixteenth birthday! At a girl sixteenth birthday, she must be the center of attention. How to dress to be the heart-stopping belle of the ball, has been a wish of every girl who will have her 16 birthday.

, CEO of Merle Dress, said, "Merle Dress is to transform yourself into a princess for your sweet sixteen party in one of the amazing dresses from Merle Dress. We have your party perfect dress to make you the party girl extraordinaire. Short dresses that are flirty and fun or long halter top and strapless dresses that add a touch of elegance. Perfect for your sweet 16 celebration, holiday party, or graduation these sweet dresses will make any occasion special."

Merle Dress, with its own group of top designers, help each girl to grab the spotlight in few seconds. Each sweet sixteen dress from Merle Dress is for the latest fashion, couture style, sleeveless and full length. It needs to wear an actual bra!! I unpicked the beading in the flower and received so many compliments on it. I bought it to wear at a ball!! The service from Merle Dress is great, and it arrived earlier than expected! I will order a rehearsal dinner dress in these days. Thanks so much!!! "

Sweet sixteen dresses should be stored in a dry room (not the basement). If possible, drape dresses over a chair instead of hanging them up. If you must hang your sweet sixteen or prom dress, hang them like pants folded over the hanger. A dress steamer is necessary to remove any excess wrinkles on the dress.

Will it work

I gave up on the Gap, that staple of malls across America, long ago. I've also abandoned higher-end Banana Republic with its air of business casual (what happened to the simple safari T-shirt?) and J. Crew (once a source for affordable chinos, it now sells wedding dresses). They're too fancy and too expensive, especially for basics. Besides, if I'm going to spend upward of $100 on something trendy, I don't want the same velvet blazer or baby alpaca poncho worn by every seventh person I pass on the street.

In Target, amid boxes of Swiffers and jumbo rolls of toilet paper, I like to imagine I've uncovered some great fashion secret. Of course, as America's second-largest discounter, Target is no secret. In fact, because of its success - women's apparel was one of the chain's strongest categories in the third quarter, according to a spokesperson - it has now become a target. Those footsteps you hear are from America's No. 1 retailer, Wal-Mart, trying to lure fashion- yet budget-conscious shoppers.

While Target has long branded itself as a big box with hip quotient, Wal-Mart has been singular in its desire to play the discount game - "always low prices." But in September, Wal-Mart unveiled a series of new ads in Vogue. That same month the retail giant made an appearance at New York Fashion Week - a first. And last month, in 500 of its stores, Wal-Mart launched Metro7, a house label geared toward a more "fashion forward" demographic.

Retail analysts say that the growing popularity of discount stores with frugal and fashion-savvy consumers is part of the larger democratization of fashion. For some, these stores make the latest styles accessible to those who can't afford designer labels. For others who may be able to splurge on a $190 pair of Habitual jeans at a trendy boutique - but only by pairing them with a $6 tank top - they put the higher-end items within reach.

"Trading down to trade up is something that's become readily acceptable with lots of consumers," says Wendy Liebmann, whose company puts out the report "How America Shops" every two years.

For women in households earning more than $100,000 a year, Target has a particular appeal. Rowley: "You will see a person in a pair of Ferragamos in Target - you will not see that in Wal-Mart."

On a recent trip, no one in Ferragamo shoes was visible at either store. But at Target there was Meghan Cook, a marketer for a Boston bank, dressed in navy Saucony sneakers, jeans with a fashionably wide leg, and carrying a black Fendi handbag. As the analyst had predicted, no such shopper appeared at Wal-Mart.

Sharon Stone is widely credited with popularizing "cheap chic." At the 1995 Oscars she walked the red carpet in a Valentino skirt and Armani jacket over a Gap T-shirt.

It was five years later that Target brought in its first design partner, sportswearmaker Mossimo Giannulli, who created a line exclusively for the store.

Where is recap of project runway season 6 episode 9

Huzzah! Michael Kors is back and please please let him bring on the snarky. The episode hasn't even started and I'm already rooting for a Nicolas takedown, the boy so full of himself he needs a double leather-gloved smack and a Manolo boot out of here.

Of course we are objective and fair. We are all about the blank slate. Sure. Plus, he has immunity so we're stuck with Sir Smugalot.

Once again, the episode starts with really boring repartee. Someone takes long showers. Louise says she's going "over the top" this time because she doesn't want a snoozefest. Blah blah.

Heidi tells them the challenge will be "colorful." Some chick from Macy's is way too excited about the color blue. It's all about blue and fashion. They have to create two blue looks and pitch to the Macy's chick. The winner's outfit will be sold at Macy's. But (bitter rant here) I'm sure not in any sort of plus size offerings. This is why I love Michael Kors, because I can wear his clothes and look fabulous. OK, rant over. This isn't "Drop Dead Diva".

Althea is confident with her denim wide-legged high-waisted pants. Logan is thinking a sweater dress. So does Shirin. Epperson is thinking cape. Nicolas is thinking leather. Christopher is doing a play on a men's shirt. So is Louise, with a tuxedo shirt dress. Vampira sucks up to Macy's chick and pitches a 70s look. Irina is doing a patchwork look and received a smile and nod.

Team leaders are Althea, Irina, Carol Hannah, Christopher and Louise. We likey the Macy's chick. She chooses all our favs. Then, they all team up. Althea has such the crush on Logan she actually giggles when

she picks him. It's a little sad.

Off to Mood, as always. Commercial break includes the alpaca pitch. Why can't the designers go to an alpaca farm and Rumplestiltskin their own fabric? Spin, beyotches, spin!

Most everyone is miserable working in teams. Shirin is already whining about Carol Hannah's designs, including a high-waisted pencil skirt and sweater dress with leggings. Nicolas is whining about ruffles. The only one happy is Epperson who doesn't want to be a team leader. Althea says Logan is full of surprises and everyone thinks he's hot. Focus, girl, focus.

For some reason, Louise is cooing and chirping and making weird bird noises. She says it helps relieves stress. I understand. Some of us do yoga and meditate to lighten the mental load. Some of us

chirp like a pigeon. All righty then.

Question: Can you judge an entire season's worth of clothes if you haven't seen the season? Dear Nina, I'm talking to you. The Marie Claire spot has been filled by myriad would-be yous, but they don't have your panache, your fab hair, your way of putting something down while appearing to be nice.

But we're here, watching the blandy designers and wishing we were in New York, being inspired by graffiti.

Louise is gone. Gordana, aka, Vampira, doesn't want to be in a position where she's old (she is, comparatively) and she isn't afraid to lose everything because she still has that sexy Rocky Horror accent and can work on one of the nine million vampire shows out there.

Now that Irina has won two challenges in a row, she's all puff-headed. But Snap! Logan, in a speaking role for the first time, says she thinks she's better than the rest of them. Which, um, yeah, she does. Heidi gets all crazy up in our fashion sense by bringing out new models, all in wedding dresses. All of the women are divorced and want to turn the dresses in something wearable. I'm seeing a lot of dye about to happen.

All the women are gloriously happy to be divorced. I'm amazed at the chick who has been divorced 14 years and still HAS the wedding dress and can fit in it. Bravo!

Everyone chooses. Althea and Shirin get stuck with the women in tank dresses. Shirin is super whiny because her tank is polyester and undyeable, which is hard. But suck it up. Use those scissors! Bring out the Bedazzler! Tim appears and utters the best line of the season so far: "I'm sending in your divorcees!"

The clients are hysterical in their demands. Nicolas' client wants everything cruelty free, including fabric. Shirin's client wants a dress a la Cher's Half Breed, complete with peacock feathers and headdress. Really, we are not making this up. Ohh, sad personal time. Vampira was married before and is now divorced with children. With melancholy music in the background, we see her with black fabric and calling her children. Who do not answer the phone. She is forced to leave a message, sobbing while running black dyed hands through her hair. Do they not arrange this in advance? It seems kind of mean.

As captain of my school's Environmental club, I set forth many goals of which I hope to accomplish. One major task, though, was the job of persuading students to join the club and participate in all the fundraising events that will take place during the course of the year. During the first week of school, I went around to many students, especially new freshmen, explaining what the club was all about and all the fun events that we will sponsor. This was a very hard task, because today, teenagers believe that they have better things to do than help protect and save the environment. So, I had to make the club seem very fun and cool. By using my so called "talents", at the end of all my negotiating, my finished result was a list of about 20 students who were really serious about participating in the club. This is the perfect amount of members and I was very excited by the outcome.

Last year, when I was just a timid member of the club and not the leader, the Environmental Club was really boring. It did not provide any service opportunities for its members to participate in and we were not involved in activities that could benefit our community and school campus. But, this year is going to be different. Below, I have listed some of my ideas in which I hope the Environmental Club could partake in.

As all of you know, some highways in New York and just gross. You would be surprised to discover all the things that people throw out of their car windows while driving. So, I figured, why not host a day where the students and teachers pick up trash on theside of the highway. Not only is there garbage on highways, but there are tons of garbage on some beaches in New York City as well. This could be dangerous for the wildlife that live on these beaches, so cleaning them will be a very useful and beneficial event that we could organize. At my school, we all have to wear a uniform. Many of the children and teenagers despise wearing the mandatory outfit to school each day, and rejoice at the last Friday of each month when we are allowed to "dress down." As long as we dress appropriately, we are allowed to wear anything we want and do not have to follow the dress code. One way in which we could raise money for certain endangered species and environmental funds is organizing "dress down" days in which students would pay a small price, about $5.00, and that money would be donated to the specific charity. Students would then be allowed to wear their everyday clothes to school that day, but would be encouraged to incorporate a green article of clothing to show their support for the environment. Mostly all the students in the Upper School are involved in "dress down" days, so we would be able to raise a lot of money for good causes.

Since our school campus is pretty big, with permission, we might be able to plant flowers and trees around the grounds, or even maintain a little vegetable garden. The members of the club could then take turns maintaining the garden. Everybody loves art. So, why not put our skills to work by creating posters and signs to hang up around the school encouraging students to "renew, reuse, and recycle."

Every time a person buys hot lunch at my school's cafeteria, their food is placed on Styrofoam plates. One goal that we will try to achieve is getting our school to use plates and bowls that could be washed after use. If you are a student, try to get involved in your school'sEnvironmental Club. If your school does not have such a club, create one! Do not be afraid to express your ideas, because many people may have the same one but might be afraid to say it. I will keep you posted on how the club is doing. Let's hope for a great year!If you have any good ideas for Environmental Clubs, please feel free to write them in the comment box. Thanks!!

Can a child choose which parent to live with

Sometimes parents involve their children in custody, residency and access matters hoping the opinion of the child sways the outcome. At other times, children may seek to initiate a change themselves. The child's desire may be due to conflict with a parent; seeking to be closer to a particular school or friends; or even seeking to avoid reasonable parental expectations looking instead to live with the parent with whom they have greater albeit inappropriate freedoms. Thus children sometimes wonder about their influence in such matters too.

Generally, custody, residency and access decisions are matters for parents to decide. When they are unable to reach a decision between themselves, parents may turn to a counsellor for guidance. If that is unsuccessful, parents may then turn to a mediator and if that is unsuccessful, they may turn to the court.

Often the age of twelve is considered a turning point when the opinion of a child may begin to truly give added weight to these decisions. However, there is nothing magical or automatic about that number. Maturity of the child, the situation and parental influence will also be important factors, not to mention the needs of the child and the respective parent's ability to meet those needs appropriately and in a timely fashion. Therefore, being minors, the decision still remains in the hands of adults, be they the parents, professionals or Courts.

Parents are always cautioned against involving their children in custody, residency or access decisions.

In the event a parent influences a child, the child may feel in a bind, unable to resist the influence of the parent and not wanting to undermine their relationship with the other parent. Hence influencing a child only adds to their psychological and emotional distress living between their separated parents. In these circumstances, parents must ask themselves if what they are doing is truly for the child or their own interest.

From the child's perspective there can be all sorts of legitimate reasons to alter their residency between separated parents. However the child may not be privy as to how the custody, residency or access decisions were arrived at in the first place. Hence their view of the situation may not be fully informed. So while children may form a reasonable argument in view of their desire, it still remains between the parents to discuss and reach a decision.

Whether child initiated or parent initiated, parents are encouraged to sit down with each other and the older child and if unable to resolve matters between themselves, consult a counsellor, mediator or lawyer to aid in their decision making process.

Counsellors or mediators who work for an agency may have long waiting lists for service. Those who are in private practice, where the parents pay for service, are generally more readily available. While parents may consult with the older child, hopefully in the end they will keep the actual decision making process to themselves.
