LOVE ADVICE: BY HENRY VAN DYKE
Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.
BEAUTY ADVICE: BY JENNIFER LOPEZ
Beauty is only skin deep. I think what's important is finding a balance of mind, body, and spirit. Somebody said to me not too long ago, 'until you're twenty, you have the face you are born with, and after that you have the face you deserve, and I really loved that - the idea that you wear who you are on your face.

FASHION ADVICE: FROM VOGUE (JUNE 2010)
Top 10 Summer Sizzle List for 2010
1. A tiny white bikini, for poolside iced-espresso sipping.
2. A high-waisted Hollywood-goddess swimsuit for frolicking scenically in the surf.
3. A slim-cut, mannish jacket to wear over numbers 1 and 2 as an unconventional cover-up.
4. A zebra-striped bag, big enough for a bottle of SPF 30 Creme de la Mar and several eBay-ed copies of Fleur Cowles's Flair.
5. A chunky white wristwatch.
6. A wide-brimmed hat. Those passe porkpies never were much use in the sun.
7. A white minidress, possibly sliced or cut out here or there. (Yes, white is everywhere)
8. A blouse with an I Love Lucy print. Leopard spots? Polka dots?
9. Bangles that look like they came from a market in Zanzibar, to wear on both arms.
10.A perfectly weightless pastel chiffon dress, for wafting down lower Fifth Avenue, pretending it's 1938 and we're inspiring Irwin Shaw to pen "The Girls in Their Summer Dresses."
GLAMOUR GUIDE: BY SANDRA DEEBLE FROM "A GIRL'S GUIDE TO GLAMOUR"
Tips for Inner Glamour. Inside-out glamour endures. Lipstick wears off but the glow that comes from feeling happy in your skin is worth its weight in pumpkin seeds. The trick is not to be glum. Balance is key. Here are tips for nurturing inner glamour:
1. Drink water: Lots of water, tap, bottle, anykind of water as long as it is clean.
2. Sleep: Create a pleasure zone: sensual boudoir meets chamber of calm.
3. Eat: Think purifying, think energizing, think packed with the good stuff.
4. Stretch: Yoga, Pilates, swimming, walking, or good old-fashioned calisthenics.
5. Dream: By day and by night. Allow yourself a sacrosanct morsel of time alone to let your mind wander wherever it likes.
6. Be good: Treat your body like a temple, show your appreciation.
7. Be bad: If you feel rejuvenated just knowing that you can manage on three hours sleep, after dancing till dawn, then do it. We need lightness in live. Be mad. It's good for the soul.
8. Detox your mind: Worry is hellishly aging. Do what you need to --- seek help, talk to friends, deal with the past, and move on.
9. Meditate: Learn how to. Serenity is divine.
