"Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common-sense." ~ Helen Rowland
Wishing you all the best this Holiday Season.
Sincerely,
Q: I don?t want to be over or underdressed for my date. What are some good rules for dressing for a first date? - Annette
A: You?re right Annette, being over or underdressed can really make you feel uncomfortable which is the last thing you want to worry about. When making the attire decision, you want to ask yourself ?what outfit or article of clothing makes me feel confident?? If your date entails a physical activity, make sure your sweatshirt is a flattering color and your t-shirt underneath is flirtatious and fun for the beer afterwards. If the date is more like going for coffee, base your decision around what your best asset is. For guys, it might be your shoulders or eyes so wear something that accentuates them. For women, you know your assets, so play it up! A mistake people make is over-thinking and over-accentuating. Specifically, their outfit looks far too planned out or they play up too many areas of their body which leaves nothing to look forward to.
Remember the three "C's": Casual, Confident & Comfort
I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that I have yet another success story to share with you!
I met Scott T at your event on March 10th, 2004. It was the first and only time I had ever been to this type of event. Scott and I hit it off immediately, we laughed through our first 6 minutes together and have not stopped since.
On March 24th, Scott proposed to me while we were flying to Montreal for the Easter weekend. We are getting married next May Long (2006). Needless to say I am thrilled. Scott and I both realize we would never have met each other if it had not been for your event.
So on that note, THANK YOU so much for introducing me to the love of my life and my future husband.
For those of you joining us this week at The BeatNiq Jazz Club for our Holiday Parties, we know you'll have a great time!

DECEMBER 2005
Libra - As the month starts, it's time for you to begin communicating what you want romantically, including how you want it and from whom. On the 1st and 2nd, it might not hurt to tell the actual person involved, either; if you've got the gumption, give it a try. The 7th, don't get bummed if there's not a whole lot of romantic progress. You can't force these things, you know! The 13th, you could see romantic illumination -- it's kind of like the whole room lights up when you and a certain someone walk in. On the 19th, get creative when expressing yourself (why not say it with ... gingerbread?). On the 23rd, get ready: The 24th and 25th will be totally great days. You'll feel more loved (and more needed) than a reindeer with a shiny nose on a foggy night. Stay home and take a long bath on the 30th, and the 31st, plan a quiet celebration. Don't forget to invite somebody you'd like to smooch!
Scorpio - If somebody seems too good to be true the 1st and 2nd, well ... they just might be. Listen to your instincts, and you won't go wrong romantically. Ignore them, and you could be in for some heartbreak. Don't make any sudden moves on the 8th -- that means no making up and no breaking up. Wait for smoother sailing, or at least a better relationship-reworking phase (which should come along the 11th, 12th and 13th), to hold any heart-related negotiations. The 17th, you'll get whatever you want, however you want it, and by the 18th, darned if you won't be smooching that person you've had your eye on all year! Do something with your friends the 22nd -- you may need a little break from romance. On the 27th, love is going to come find you, and the 31st, you could find out just how well you two work together. Happy New Year, indeed!
Sagittarius - Well, you warm, fuzzy blanket; you thick down comforter; you roaring fire in the fireplace of a cute ski cabin somebody's uncle lent you for the weekend .... You are sure keeping somebody toasty and warm the 1st and 2nd! Yes, this is a mighty romantic month for you, and it's going to be full of creature comforts for you and a snuggle bug. The 8th, you might just want to stay in (go ahead -- invite them to stay in, too). The 14th, you two really get deep into some kind of discussion that sets you both aglow all over again. On the 20th, take a trip! The 23rd, take your time (romance needs lots of it, you know!), and on the 26th, pay attention to your dreams. The 29th, you are keeping your love oh-so-warm, once again. And that's a great way to wrap up the year!
Capricorn - The 1st, you might make eye contact with somebody across the room, and before you know it, a spark may light between you two that seems to say 'yes, yes, yes.' By the 2nd, things may progress with this former stranger, and maybe your eyes will be saying 'yes, yes, yes.' Sometimes the old magic works that way. On the 6th, count your pennies, and then throw one into a fountain and make a wish. (It's a good way to figure out what you really want!) Get yourself into a relatively stable situation the 10th, before you ask that clear-eyed stranger to go out with you (don't worry -- if the answer isn't 'yes,' it'll most likely be 'yes! yes!'). On the 14th, you're in for romance. What a way to wrap up the year! The 20th, try to focus on work at work, and the 26th, do some introspection. The 30th and 31st are totally 'yes, yes' days, when you're going to have as much romance as you could possibly want.
Aquarius - As the month starts, you'll open your arms (either literally or emotionally) and welcome all kinds of new things into your life. The 1st and 2nd, that could very well include romance. Then, the 5th and 6th, if love is in your vicinity, it'll find its way into your arms, which will suit you just fine. In fact, you'll like it a lot! The 9th, a bright idea will occur to you -- and inspire you to get even more lovey-dovey than you were before. The 13th, ride out a very tiny spell of boredom, and by the 14th and 15th, you'll have an explosive affair on your hands. Wow! On the 20th, some of the nitty-gritty of romance (like, who's going to pay for dinner?) will come up -- handle it as well as you can. On the 24th, connect on as many emotional levels as possible; open your arms all the way on the 29th. A whole new year is waiting!
Pisces - As the month starts, you'll open your arms (either literally or emotionally) and welcome all kinds of new things into your life. The 1st and 2nd, that could very well include romance. Then, the 5th and 6th, if love is in your vicinity, it'll find its way into your arms, which will suit you just fine. In fact, you'll like it a lot! The 9th, a bright idea will occur to you -- and inspire you to get even more lovey-dovey than you were before. The 13th, ride out a very tiny spell of boredom, and by the 14th and 15th, you'll have an explosive affair on your hands. Wow! On the 20th, some of the nitty-gritty of romance (like, who's going to pay for dinner?) will come up -- handle it as well as you can. On the 24th, connect on as many emotional levels as possible; open your arms all the way on the 29th. A whole new year is waiting!
Aries - This month, you're saying 'heave-ho' to ho-hum when it comes to romance. The 1st and 2nd -- then all month long -- you're sailing the seven seas in search of something new, and you're making anything so-so walk the plank. (Just try to make sure nobody drowns in your emotions.) The 7th, you hit a rough patch -- heck, did you think the seven seas would be all balmy? No way! But a little Sturm und Drang might be just what you want in the end. On the 12th, hoist the sails and keep going, and on the 17th, don't let your emotions rock the ship. Pay attention to the little things the 23rd, and on the 27th, listen to the deckhands. If they say a romantic revolt is in the works, you better promise everybody a bigger cut of the spoils (when you get your hands on them). On the 31st, settle down a little -- make a resolution or two, and find somebody to smooch!
Taurus - You're charming. There's just no two ways about it -- folks talk to you and light up. Early in the month, you're going to explore how your charm works -- and doesn't -- in romantic situations. When is it a real plus, drawing in potential partners? And when is it a hindrance? For example, do you sometimes try to charm your way out of an emotional confrontation? Ask yourself these questions the 1st and 2nd, and keep up the inquiry all month long. On the 8th, you might want to ask your friends what they think. Then the 12th, it all starts to come together. You're getting your charm to work for you, not against you, and that's a recipe for real romance. Talk about it the 17th -- sometimes a heart-to-heart is the best aphrodisiac. The 21st is the day to do whatever floats your romantic boat, such as taking a bubble bath or receiving roses; while the 27th, you dig in deep, romantically. What a way to prepare yourself for a new year! Make a resolution (and maybe a wish) the 31st -- and have fun!
Gemini - The 1st and 2nd, you're going to channel a lot of romantic energy into a deep exploration of partnership. Whether you have a partner or you're in the process of finding one (or if you're taking a much-needed break to figure out what's up with yourself), the idea of how to be in the world with another human being will occupy your time. And when it comes to finding answers, you'll get warmer (despite dropping temperatures) on the 5th and 6th. The 11th, take a break from all the internal activity and go to a few holiday parties with friends -- you'll sparkle like those shiny holiday decorations! The 15th, somebody wants to drape you with tinsel from head to toe, and you might just let them. The 20th, you'll have a little chat that lights you up like a multicolored string of bulbs, and the 25th, you'll wonder what's in that red box you see before you. It could be very merry, after all. On the 31st, smooch!
Cancer - The 1st and 2nd, why don't you take those lovey-dovey feelings you're bubbling over with and redirect them -- to yourself! It's not as crazy as it sounds. After all, you have to be a little in love with yourself before you can really fall for someone else. The 3rd and 4th, run yourself a candlelit mineral bath, hide some chocolate in your bedroom and tell yourself you're wonderful. The 5th and 6th, take yourself out to dinner, then -- heck -- compliment yourself on your titillating intellect. On the 13th you could finally be ready to turn some of your charm on someone else, so go ahead and wow them. The 17th brings you to a superemotional, supergood space -- and somebody smashing could be right there with you. Talk about your feelings on the 23rd, and on the 30th, stay in and make resolutions and smooching plans. Carry them out the 31st! And don't forget to give yourself a big kiss, too.
Leo - You start the month with a superlarge dose of romance! The 1st and 2nd, this boom will make any old aches and pains (not to mention those nasty flu-like symptoms a broken heart can produce) disappear. You'll feel great -- and when you're in the presence of your (new?) romantic object, you could well find you've got a fever. Wow! Watch out on the 6th though; there's a pride virus going around, and you don't want to catch it. The 10th, you'll learn something new about yourself (are you susceptible to a smooching epidemic?). You should share your symptoms with friends on the 15th -- especially if there's a nurse or two in your circle. The 20th, you're on fire -- and you aren't even running a temperature! The 25th, give a present or two -- and don't forget to include the gift of yourself in the package. The 30th, make a few healthy resolutions, and on the 31st, smooch!
Virgo - Maybe, the 1st and 2nd, you'll want to dance the night away in the arms of a hot stranger. But maybe your cousin will need you to baby-sit her kids. What will you do? Sometimes your inner romantic has to give way to practicality. After all, when you've found Mr. or Ms. Right and fallen in love, you'll be able to call on your cousin to baby-sit for your little ones, while you and your one and only go out and dance the night away. So, for now, baby-sit if asked. On the 7th, be sure to treat other people's opinions with respect -- especially if you might want to date said people (or if you already do). On the 13th, you might meet somebody hotter than a smoking-hot chili pepper during a trip south. The 17th, you should talk to your buddies about your opinions on romance. On the 23rd, if there's lovey-dovey loving to be had, you're going to have it. Look deep into your soul on the 27th, and you'll solve a mystery of the heart. The 31st, it's your favorite time -- time for romance!
