If you already have the perfect "hourglass" figure, then you might be interested in this skirt because it's gorgeous. If you've always WANTED an hourglass figure, then you might be interested in this because it's gorgeous AND when you slip it on, your figure will visually morph, as closely as possible, into the coveted hourglass form.
Designed with a comfort-conscious elasticized waistline and a 'figure-magic' structure of triangular inserts that are narrow at the waist and gradually become broader to the hem. Then, so that you can really nail down the narrower waistline part of the hourglass, this comes with a long and wide belt so that you can wrap it around and rein in that waistline.
Done up in monochromatic, contrasting colors of a top quality rayon that's softly silky and partners with the design of the skirt to move and flow right along with you, just the way you want. And it gets softer and nicer with each washing.
So, if you appreciate beautiful, comfort-conscious and innovative fashion, then this is for you. And if you've always wished for that elusive "hourglass" form, well, sometimes wishes do come true.

Yemen is arguably the most fascinating and least known country in the Arab world. Long regarded by classical geographers as a fabulous land where flying serpents guarded sacred incense groves, our current ideas of this country at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula have been hijacked -- by images of the desert, by oil, by the Gulf War. But, as Tim Mackintosh-Smith reminds us with this brilliant book, there is another Arabia. In Yemen -- winner of the Thomas Cook/Daily Telegraph Travel Book Award and a bestseller in five printings in the UK -- Mackintosh-Smith writes with an intimacy and depth of knowledge gained through thirteen years among the Yemenis. Crossing mountain, desert, ocean and three millennia of history, he portrays a land where men chew leaves and camels live on fish; where men wear pinstriped lounge-suit jackets on top, skirts below, and wicked curved daggers in the middle; a city that seems to have been baked, not built, of iced gingerbread. In this book, Yemen is a part of Arabia, but it is like no place else on Earth. A book in the tradition of the best of Pico Iyer, Yemen is an Arabian Grand Tour, a book in which every page is filled -- like the land it describes -- with the marvelous.

Think cheerleading is just pom-poms, "gimme an 'R,'" and pleated skirts? Not anymore. Take an exhilarating trip through the rough-and-tumble world of competitive college cheerleading.... College cheerleaders are extreme athletes who fly thirty feet in the air, build pyramids in which a single slip can send ten people crashing to the ground, and compete in National Championships that are won by hundredths of a point. Cheer! is a year-long odyssey into their universe, following three squads from tryouts to Nationals. Meet the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjack cheerleaders from Nacogdoches, Texas, who seem destined to win their fifth National Championship in a row -- until they are shaken by the departure of their longtime coach. Fall in love with the Southern University Jaguars from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, an African-American team hoping to raise the $17,000 needed to travel to Nationals and transform their near win several years ago into a Cinderella victory. Root for the University of Memphis All-Girl cheerleaders from Tennessee -- a team that continually struggles for the same respect Coed teams get -- when their quest for a national title is threatened by injuries and dropouts. Along the way, meet unforgettable characters like Sierra, a cheerleading prodigy who has never lost a competition; Doug, who is in his eighth year as a college cheerleader; and Casi, one of the few female bases who can lift another cheerleader on her own. These are people who risk horrifying injuries on a daily basis, battle demons like eating disorders and steroid use, and form intense bonds. In the immersive tradition of Friday Night Lights , Cheer! is a captivating, all-access journey into a deeply absorbing world.
