Choral vs Crystal for Ibibio bride

I heard from my sister today while we were out shopping for her wedding and then she mentioned to me that Akwa Ibom brides dont wear choral beads as part of their bridal costume because choral beads is not a part of their tradition. The question is now what will i do now? I then immediately remembered that Mrs Tuface Idibia didnt have one on too and she looked gorgeous with her simple crystal beads. If you are an Ibibio wife or bride, here are some tips or suggestions of beads that you can rock. I will still do my research on their wedding traditions and more.

Pre Wedding Diet

The pre wedding running around and planning might leave you with very little or no time for a routine exercise. So here’s the work around, choose a diet plan or maintain a tab on your food intake.  This will not only speed up your weight loss but will also tone your muscles and ensure higher blood circulation, which will drape you with a glowing skin.

Watch Your Eating Habits

You need to keep a watch not only on how much you are eating but what you are eating as well. For women the secret is to limit calorie intake to 1600 calories or lesser per day. Breakfast is the meal which keeps you running throughout the day. You can choose to breakfast like a queen, accommodate lunch like a princess and dinner like a beggar. Keep your hands off from those tempting sweets. Healthy snacks like vegetables, fruits and nuts will not only help contain hunger pangs but will keep your energy level high and avoid the big serving you plan to pamper yourself during your meals too. They will also supply you with all the vitamins and nutrition needed for your busy future days.

Drinking large amount of water will not only keep your stomach full but also acts as de-toxin. Eight glasses of water is highly recommended for an individual. Try to avoid the diet sodas and instead fill in a filtered water pitcher for better-tasting water. You can also add a few lemons to your water bottle to give you a tangy flavor.

Exercise Works Wonders
Just doing any form of exercise daily for twenty minutes will do wonders to help lose your calories. Choose a particular time during the day when you are pumped with energy and do what ever you like – yoga, aerobics, walk, salsa etc. You can choose to burn the calories even at work by taking the stairs instead of the lift. Basically, you need to push your body out of the “comfort zone” and work out with great intensity even if you choose to do it only thrice a week. Also ensure that you stay away from severely restricted diets, which limit your nutritional intake. You should aim to get rid of the fat and sugar in your diet, not the nutrients which you need.

Apart from that, stay away from alcohol as even a celebratory drink will add 150 calories. In fact, cutting back on alcohol can save you hundreds of calories. The right diet and exercise can leave you with an envious figure and a bright skin to flaunt off on your big day

bridal hairpieces truly speak

Making a beautiful hair might seem to be the most essential but the hair accessory is equally important, so if you are a bride and you are sorting out your hair against the wedding, do well to pick some hair accessory that will accentuate the beauty of your hair and your general look. Know the right one by consulting with your hair stylist and friends too. There is the hair pin, hair band, roses, tiara and co. They all speak louder.....wink
