Women with Curves Can Now Get Denim Jeans that Fit Just Right
HOUSTON, Texas, Nov. 20 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Toombas Jeans & Denim Wear announces this week their new line of no-gap-in-the-waist jeans and other denim clothing, sizes 0-24. Inspired by millions of curvaceous women who have gone unnoticed in the fashion world, the founders of Toombas Jeans & Denim set out to change women's negative self images by simply stating, "Love Your Curves."
"We should all love our inner essence no matter what we look like on the outside," Haja Scott, designer says. "And, the best way to love the 'inner you' is to start feeling good about the 'outer you'."
These clothes are designed to reinstate women's confidence and to make them like what they see when they look in the mirror. They are also designed to take women from day to night - from the workplace to the hottest place.
Women of all shapes and sizes continue to quest for that perfect pair of jeans. And for most, buying jeans without a huge gap in the waist is the biggest challenge. That's why Toombas has tackled the challenge and, according to their customers, have succeeded with flying colors.
Toombas has promised and delivered awesome fitting jeans that women are singing praises about. And being women, the Toombas designers know how important it is to please women and to make their clothing fit perfectly.
When the company's journey first began, not many retailers were targeting women with smaller waists, and wider hips and rear. Now, even those retailers who do provide alternatives simply do not have great options for the everyday woman.
Price is also a big factor, especially today when people are really watching their budgets. Toombas jeans are strategically priced so that women can have stylish, quality clothing without having to break the bank.
About Toombas Jeans & Denim Wear
In 2005, Haja Scott, designer, along with her two sisters, Zainab Ntaamah and Fatima Iscandri founded Toombas Jeans & Denim Wear. The first few years were devoted to research and development to create a top-notch brand accompanied by their original-sizing chart.
The primary motivation of the company is simple - to provide reasonably priced, high-quality fashions with a good fit. Toombas jeans provide comfort while accentuating hips, waist, and more importantly, curves. With a range of fashionable jeans, capris, shorts, skirts, denim tops and tees, Toombas is poised to become a major contender in the fashion world.
For more information on products, or to order online, visit: www.toombas.net. Products are also available at Toombas locations in Stafford and Pflugerville, Texas; a listing of new retailers will soon be added to the web site.

Popping the Question on a Budget is Easier Than Ever with Online Jeweler Whiteflash.com
HOUSTON, Texas, Nov. 19 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Finding the right person to spend the rest of your life with is hard enough; asking her to marry you should be the easy part. But with a stalled economy making headlines every day, is it possible to find the perfect diamond ring if you're on a budget? With online jeweler Whiteflash.com, the answer is yes.
If you're thinking about asking your girlfriend to marry you with a diamond ring, you're in good company. IDEX Online Research estimates that 84 percent of all brides-to-be received a diamond engagement ring in 2006, up from 83 percent in the previous year. This number keeps rising for good reason: What would a proposal be without a dazzling diamond to make her eyes light up?
Regardless of what the economy looks like, grooms are sticking to the traditional advice about spending two to three months' salary on a diamond engagement ring. The average cost of rings has risen as salaries have increased: from $2,909 in 1995 to $4,146 in 2005, according to Association of Certified Professional Wedding Consultants (ACPWC). The reason? Unlike other investments, the economy doesn't take a toll on the value of a diamond. Stocks may rise and fall, but a diamond is forever.
No matter what the economy looks like, when guys find the woman of their dreams, they want to give her a diamond engagement ring. More grooms are discovering that the secret to finding a great ring on a budget is to shop on the Internet, where prices are transparent. Forrester Research reports that online jewelry sales reached $2 billion in 2003 and are expected to rise to $8 billion this year. That's because with premier online jewelry sites like Whiteflash.com, men can custom design a ring especially for their girlfriends-splurging on the characteristics that are important to them and saving money on the areas that aren't. It's a much better deal than simply choosing from a few high-priced options at a brick-and-mortar store.
A study by The Wedding Report suggests that style and cost are the driving factors behind ring selection. And when you shop online, you get a much better selection of inventory in your price range, whether that's $1,000 or $10,000. And at whiteflash.com, everything you see on the web site is in stock and ready to be shipped directly to your doorstep - for free.
So when you're ready to pop the question, remember that you really can purchase a ring that will take her breath away on any budget. Shop smart-shop online!

Trend Alert: Color and Self Expression Hot in Girls’ Fashions
SAINT LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 6 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Pre-teen and tween girls love wearing the hottest fashions expressing their unique style. If they can do it on a MySpace or Facebook page naturally they want to state their point of view in fashion, too. XpressIt Designs lets girls share what they want to say on colorful, fun belts perfect for jeans. It's the coolest new way for girls to make a statement without saying a word.
The XpressIt Designs belt is the brainchild of designer James Androuais. Androuais starts with a colorful, leather-like belt with eyelet holes all the way around and a silver tone buckle. Metallic grommets about the size of a penny called Twistonz affix through the holes around the belt with a quick twist spelling out messages. Fashion savvy girls can spell out their names or a unique message. They also can choose Twistonz with clever sayings like "BFF," "OMG," "Hot" and "I Hate Boys" to name a few. There are also Twistonz with adorable characters like "Flopsy" the bunny, "Lambo" a smiling sheep, "Pokey" the turtle, Shopping bag and more.
The belts are a little over an inch in width, just right to fit through most jean belt loops with ease. They are offered in girl-friendly colors including this season's hottest yellow, bright red, lime green, aqua blue, bubblegum pink and optic white. Currently the customizable belts can be purchased at http://www.xpressitdesigns.com
Androuais, age 22, says, "The trend is for girls to express themselves in many ways. Gone are the days of "don't speak unless spoken to" and that's healthy. I saw the crazy popularity of websites like MySpace and Facebook and how much girls love sharing their point of view, their thoughts and their feelings. I thought it would be great for girls, who are little fashionistas anyway, to have an age-appropriate way to express themselves that could be altered to reflect her mood and every time she gets dressed for school in the morning. XpressIt belts make a statement that's personal to every girl who wears one."
An unlikely fashion designer, St. Louis, MO based Androuais says, "I have a very detail-oriented mind. I first developed the idea of the Twistonz fastener. Then I thought it would be great to put it on a belt and make it for girls who care about expressing themselves. When the first samples of belts came in, I went to a couple of my neighbors who have daughters and showed them how it twists into place. They went nuts for the belts and liked the idea of wearing their name and a little symbol like a smiley face, an adorable puppy, or a cool saying. The belts have just taken off and I'm very excited with its success."
Androuais plans to make the belts available at retailers of girls' apparel nationwide. For now they are exclusively available online at www.xpressitdesigns.com. The no-nonsense site is clearly aimed at helping girls and their moms, grandmothers or anyone who might buy fashion for a girl, customize their belts with an array of Twistonz to satisfy young fashion divas.

Ayurvedic Organic Jeans: Custom Clothing Company Makes Garments That Possess Medicinal Benefits
MUMBAI, India, July 8 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Make Your Own Jeans (www.MakeYourOwnJeans.com), a company with global presence, specializes in making customized jeans to meet personal needs. They have recently created a new fashion product using techniques that go back over 5,000 years and are said to heal the body.
This new organic jeans product uses a process that originated in India; it's called Ayurveda. Fabrics are dyed in medicinal herbs as a means of practicing Ayurvedic medicine to treat various illnesses. In fact, when the word is broken down in Sanskrit it translates into health and wisdom.
Ayurveda-treated fabrics expose these medicinal herbs to the body through the skin - the body's largest organ. Depending on which herbs are used in the dyes, Ayurveda-treated fabric may treat a broad range of medical conditions including skin ailments, diabetes, arthritis, digestive problems, high blood pressure and more. Each dye may contain up to 50 different herbs.
MakeYourOwnJeans.com has received an Organic Certificate for their chemical free, Indian-origin fabrics from the Netherlands; the natural hand process dyeing is performed in the forests of India. Even the building where the fabrics are dyed is comprised of organic bricks.
Currently, the company is accepting orders for bespoke jeans, trousers, shorts and bed sheets - all made using this Ayurvedic organic fabric.
Interested jeans lovers, worldwide, can choose from stretch or regular denims, provide exact measurements, pick various fits, and specify front and back rise, as well as bottoms. Each pair of jeans will be individually cut and custom tailored. Due to more hand techniques, the jeans will also be softer than most of the mass-produced lots.
MakeYourOwnJeans.com also offers Brazilian-style jeans as an add-on fashion choice. These provocative-style jeans are known for their sexy and unique look and are mostly worn low rise.
"In stores, Brazilian styles are available only in slim sizes, but we can make any size for anybody, including big and tall, plus size, low or high rise," Harry Shahari, who conceptualized the idea, explains. "Customers just have to buy a pair of custom jeans from our web site, preferably stretch denim, and then add on the Brazilian style that they want from their "Women's Special" category.
While jeans are the most popular product, the company also manufactures casual and wedding suits - the most popular being $99 linen suits - all bespoke.
Comfort is incorporated into each garment.
"If a customer mentions in the comment section of the product page that they want elastic in the back or elastic all around, we can do it," Shahari says.
MakeYourOwnJeans.com was also written about in Oprah's "O" Magazine. One jean wearer wrote a letter which revealed that she has had "extraordinary success with the company" and "gets compliments everywhere she goes."
MakeYourOwnJeans.com has a secret page where they offer discounts; an unadvertised link to this page is at: www.MakeYourOwnJeans.com/offers.

"Adding a single made-in-USA product may not seem like a big leap to others, but the reality is, this helps me do my part to grow a socially responsible economy in the United States."
